NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1— BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Business — Ubiquiti Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Ubiquiti” or the “Company”) develop high performance networking technology for service providers, enterprises, and consumers globally.
The Company operates on a fiscal year ending June 30. In this Quarterly Report, the fiscal year ending June 30, 2021 is referred to as “fiscal 2021” and the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020 is referred to as “fiscal 2020”.
Basis of Presentation — The Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) related to interim financial statements based on applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of the Company, of a normal and recurring nature and those necessary to state fairly the statements of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the dates and periods presented. The June 30, 2020 balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on August 21, 2020 (the “Annual Report”). The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future periods.
NOTE 2— SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company’s significant accounting policies are disclosed in its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2020, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K. Except as noted below, there have been no other changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as discussed in the Annual Report.
Use of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Those estimated assumptions include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition and deferred revenue; allowance for doubtful accounts and sales return reserves; inventory valuation and vendor deposits; accounting for income taxes, including the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and reserves for uncertain tax positions; determinations of fair value for stock-based awards; estimate of incremental borrowing rate for determining the present value of future lease payments; and valuation of warranty accruals. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions based on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with a forward-looking expected credit loss model which will result in earlier recognition of credit losses for certain financial instruments and financial assets. For trade receivables, we are required to estimate lifetime expected credit losses. For available-for-sale debt securities, the Company will recognize an allowance for credit losses rather than a reduction to the carrying value of the asset. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning July 1, 2020 on a modified retrospective basis.
As of July 1, 2020, the Company adopted the new standard, including identifying, evaluating and quantifying the impact on its consolidated financial statements. The Company concluded that the expected credit loss impact to the opening balance of fiscal 2021 retained earnings was deemed immaterial, and as a result the adoption did not have a material impact the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective
Income Taxes
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which amends the existing guidance relating to the accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of accounting for income taxes and to improve the consistent application of GAAP for other areas of accounting for income taxes by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning July 1, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on its consolidated financial statements

and related disclosures.
NOTE 3— REVENUES
Revenue is primarily generated from the sale of hardware as well as the related implied post contract services (“PCS”). Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of the Company’s products and PCS to its customers. Transfer of control to the customer for products generally occurs at the point in time when products have been shipped to customers as this represents the point in time when the customer has a present obligation to pay and physical possession including title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer. Revenue for PCS is recognized ratably over time over the estimated period for which implied PCS services will be delivered.
Disaggregation of Revenue
See Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements “Segment Information” for disaggregation of revenue by product category and geography.
Contract Balances
The timing of revenue recognition, billing and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, deferred revenue primarily attributable to PCS and customer deposits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accounts receivable are recognized in the period the Company’s right to the consideration is unconditional. The Company’s contract liabilities consist of advance payments (Customer deposits) as well as billing in excess of revenue recognized primarily related to deferred revenue. The Company classifies customer deposits as a current liability, and deferred revenue as a current or non-current liability based on the timing of when we expect to fulfill these remaining performance obligations. The current portion of deferred revenue is included in other current liabilities and the non-current portion is included in other long-term liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, the Company’s customer deposits were $ 4.9 million and $ 2.1 million, respectively.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s deferred revenue, included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, was $ 20.0 million and $ 8.7 million, respectively.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company’s deferred revenue, included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, was $ 16.5 million and $ 6.3 million, respectively.
NOTE 4— FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Pursuant to the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and its subsequent updates, fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. A financial instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 —Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 —Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly;
Level 3 —Unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumption.
The Company records securities available-for-sale at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company classifies its investments within Level 1 or 2 because they are valued using either quoted market prices or inputs other than quoted prices which are directly or indirectly observable in the market, including readily-available pricing sources for the identical underlying security which may not be actively traded.
The Company’s fixed income available-for-sale securities consist of high-quality investment grade securities from diverse issuers. The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of the Company’s marketable securities incorporate bond terms and conditions, current performance data, proprietary pricing models, real time quotes from contributing dealers, trade prices and other market data.
The Company held no Level 3 financial instruments as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020.
The following tables summarize the Company’s financial instruments’ adjusted cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and fair value by significant investment category as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020 (in thousands):

(1) Cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheets includes securities that have a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. The carrying amount approximates fair value, primarily due to the short maturity of cash equivalent instruments.
For the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 the Company did no t recognize any net gains or losses from accumulated other comprehensive income related to unrealized gains or losses. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, the Company reclassified realized net gain of $ 0.2 million and $ 0.4 million to earnings from accumulated other comprehensive income related to unrealized gains or losses.
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, and 2019, interest income on the Company’s investment securities was immaterial.
The Company had no continuous unrealized loss position from marketable securities as of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020.
The following table represents the adjusted costs and fair value of cash equivalents and investments by contractual maturity as of December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

NOTE 7— ACCRUED WARRANTY
The Company offers warranties on certain products, generally a period of one to two years and records a liability for the estimated future costs associated with potential warranty claims. The warranty costs are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income within cost of revenues. The warranties are typically in effect for one year for distributors from the date of shipment and two years for direct sales from the date of delivery. The Company assesses the adequacy of its accrued warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary based on historical experience factors and changes in future estimates.

NOTE 9— LEASES
The Company enters into agreements under which it leases various real estate spaces in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, under non-cancellable leases that expire on various dates through fiscal 2029. Some of the Company’s leases include options to extend the term of such leases for a period from 12 months to 60 months, and/or have options to early terminate the lease. As of December 31, 2020, the Company included such options in determining the lease terms for certain of the Company’s leases because the Company was reasonably certain that it would exercise those options. Most of the Company’s leases require it to pay certain operating expenses in addition to base rent, such as taxes, insurance and maintenance costs.
The following table summarizes the Company’s lease costs for the three and six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 (in thousands):
Financial Statement Classification Three Months Ended December 31, Six Months Ended December 31,

Variable lease costs Cost of revenues 114 109 214 202
Total lease costs $ 2,672 $ 1,979 $ 5,285 $ 4,262
The operating lease costs in the table above include costs for long-term and short-term leases. Total short-term costs for the six months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were immaterial. Variable lease costs primarily include maintenance, utilities and operating expenses that are incremental to the fixed base rent payments and are excluded from the calculation of operating lease liabilities and ROU assets. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2020, cash paid for amounts associated with the Company’s operating lease liabilities were approximately $ 2.6 million and $ 5.4 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, cash paid for amounts associated with the Company’s operating lease liabilities were approximately $ 2.2 million and $ 4.4 million, respectively. Cash paid for amounts associated with the Company’s operating lease liabilities were classified as operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows.
The following table shows the Company’s undiscounted future fixed payment obligations under the Company’s recognized operating leases and a reconciliation to the operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2020:

Purchase Obligations
The Company subcontracts with third parties to manufacture its products and have purchase commitments with key component suppliers. During the normal course of business, the Company’s contract manufacturers procure components and manufacture

Table of Contents
products based upon orders placed by the Company. If the Company cancels all or part of the orders, the Company may still be liable to the contract manufacturers for the cost of the components purchased by the subcontractors to manufacture the Company's products. The Company periodically reviews the potential liability, and as of December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a purchase obligation liability of $ 7.6 million related to component purchase commitments. There have been no other significant liabilities for cancellations recorded as of December 31, 2020. The Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations could be negatively impacted if it were required to compensate the contract manufacturers for any unrecorded liabilities incurred. The Company may be subject to additional purchase obligations for supply agreements and components ordered by its contract manufacturers based on manufacturing forecasts it provides them each month. The Company estimates the amount of these additional purchase obligations to range from $ 149.8 million to $ 617.6 million as of December 31, 2020, depending upon the timing of orders placed for these components by its contract manufacturers.
Other Obligations
As of December 31, 2020, the Company has other obligations of $ 57.9 million which consisted primarily of commitments related to raw materials and research and development projects.
Indemnification Obligations
The Company enters into standard indemnification agreements with many of its business partners in the ordinary course of business. These agreements include provisions for indemnifying the business partner against any claim brought by a third-party to the extent any such claim alleges that a Company product infringes a patent, copyright or trademark, or violates any other proprietary rights of that third-party. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not estimable and the Company has not incurred any material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements to date.
Legal Matters
The Company may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings relating to contractual disputes, intellectual property rights, employment matters, regulatory compliance matters and other litigation matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of business. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company assesses its potential liability by analyzing specific litigation and regulatory matters using available information. The Company develops its views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and outcomes, assuming various combinations of appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. Taking all of the above factors into account, the Company records an amount where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and where that loss can be reasonably estimated. However, the Company’s estimates may be incorrect and the Company could ultimately incur more or less than the amounts initially recorded. The Company may also incur significant legal fees, which are expensed as incurred, in defending against these claims. The Company is not currently aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Vivato/XR
On April 19, 2017, XR Communications, LLC, d/b/a Vivato Technologies (“Vivato”), filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, alleging that at least one of the Company’s products infringes United States Patent Numbers 7,062,296 (the “‘296 Patent”), 7,729,728 (the “‘728 Patent”), and 6,611,231 (the “‘231 Patent” and, collectively, the “Patents-in-Suit”). The ‘296 and ‘728 Patents are entitled “Forced Beam Switching in Wireless Communication Systems Having Smart Antennas.” The ‘231 Patent is entitled “Wireless Packet Switched Communications Systems and Networks Using Adaptively Steered Antenna Arrays.” Vivato amended its complaint on June 23, 2017 and again on July 6, 2017. According to the complaint, the products accused of infringing the Patents-in-Suit include Wi-Fi access points and routers supporting MU-MIMO, including without limitation access points and routers utilizing the IEEE 802.11ac-2013 standard. Vivato has also filed nine other lawsuits asserting the same patents against other defendants in the Central District of California. On October 2, 2017, the ten cases were consolidated into a single action for all purposes except trial. On March 19, 2018, the Company and the remaining defendants in the consolidated action moved to stay the case (the “Motion to Stay”) pending completion of certain inter partes review proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. On April 9, 2018, the Court held a hearing on the Motion to Stay, and, on April 11, 2018, the Court granted the motion. On February 11, 2019, the Court maintained the stay pending a status conference scheduled for December 2, 2019. The Court maintained the stay in full pending a further status conference, which was originally scheduled for March 17, 2020 and subsequently rescheduled for February 22, 2021.
The Patent Trial and Appeal Board, in the aforementioned series of inter partes review proceedings, invalidated two of the three patents-in-suit, but it rejected the challenge to the ‘231 Patent. The decision was appealed. On November 25, 2020, the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the Patent Trial and Appeal Board decision. The Company anticipates the issue of the pending stay will be addressed by the Court at the February 22 status hearing.
The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against these claims; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in the lawsuit. The Company cannot currently estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, that it may experience in connection with this litigation.

The Company’s estimated fiscal year 2021 effective tax rate, before discrete items, differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to profits earned in jurisdictions where the tax rate is lower than the U.S. tax rate, partially offset by additional US tax related to the Company’s non-U.S. operations under Global Intangible Low-Taxes Income (“GILTI”) provision.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $ 32.5 million of unrecognized tax benefits, substantially all of which would, if recognized, affect its tax expense. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded an increase of its unrecognized tax benefits of $ 1.4 million and released $ 1.6 million of its unrecognized tax benefits due to the lapse of the application statute of limitations for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability line in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $ 4.4 million accrued interest related to uncertain tax matters.
The Company and one or more of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction, and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions and is currently undergoing income tax examinations by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and the Hong Kong IRD. All material consolidated federal, state and local income tax matters have been concluded for years through 2014. The majority of the Company’s foreign jurisdictions have been concluded through 2014, with the exception of Hong Kong which has been reviewed through 2009 and is currently under audit for the 2010-2016 tax years.
During fiscal years 2020, 2019, and 2018, the Company made a total of $ 15.5 million, $ 13.4 million, and $ 6.6 million of deposits with the Hong Kong IRD in connection with extending the statute of limitation for income tax examinations currently under audit for 2010-2015 tax years. On December 30, 2020, the company received notification that the Hong Kong IRD is seeking an additional $ 67.8 million deposit covering the 2015 tax year. The Company has filed a formal protest in response to this notice and the matter is awaiting a response from the Hong Kong IRD. The refundable deposits are included within other long-term assets on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The IRD is examining the Company’s claims that its revenue is generated through activities performed wholly outside of the Hong Kong tax jurisdiction and are therefore exempt from Hong Kong tax. The Company is fully cooperating with the examination including submitting documentation in support of its position. The Company continues to believe that its tax positions filed with IRD are more likely than not to be sustained based on their technical merits and therefore no reserve has been provided for this tax uncertainty and the Company expects the $ 35.5 million of deposits made with IRD to be refunded upon completion of the audit. However, there can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in the Company’s favor and therefore it's possible that an adverse outcome of the matter could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.
In July 2018, the Company received a draft Notice of Proposed Adjustment (“Draft NOPA”) from the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) proposing an adjustment to income for the fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2016 tax years based on its interpretation of certain obligations of the non-US entities under the credit facility. This Draft NOPA was superseded by an Acknowledgement of Facts (“AOF”) issued to the Company by the IRS on January 17, 2020. The IRS in its AOF continued to propose an adjustment to the Company’s income for its fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2016 tax years based on the IRS’ interpretation of certain obligations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries under the Company’s credit facilities. On May 12, 2020, the IRS issued a final Notice of Proposed Adjustment to the Company with respect to the 2015/2016 tax years. The Company has formally protested the adjustment and the case is expected to be moved from the Examination Division to the IRS Appeals Division where a formal review of the facts and the applicable law will take place. The timing of when the case will be scheduled to be reviewed by the Appeals Division is uncertain at this time due in large part to an existing backlog of cases awaiting review by the Division. The Company strongly believes the position of the IRS with regard to this matter is without merit. However, there can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in the Company’s favor. Regardless of whether the matter is resolved in the Company’s favor, the final resolution of this matter could be expensive and time-consuming to defend and/or settle. The Company estimates the incremental tax liability associated with the income adjustment proposed in the AOF would be approximately $ 50.0 million, excluding potential interest and penalties, after adjusting for the impact of an adjustment on the amount of transition tax payable in future years by the Company. As the Company believes that the tax originally paid in fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2016 is correct, it has not provided a reserve for this tax uncertainty. However, an adverse outcome may have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES”) was signed into law on March 25, 2020. The bill was meant to address the economic fallout in response to locally mandated shelter-in-place orders that were executed in an attempt to slow the spread of COVID-19. None of these provisions of CARES are expected to have material impacts to the Company’s fiscal 2020 tax provision. The Company will monitor the updates, both to the Company’s business as well as guidance issued with respect to CARES that could impact the current interpretation of the provisions under CARES, to determine whether any additional considerations need to be made with respect to the Company’s tax provision in future periods. On December 27, 2020, the Consolidations Appropriations Act (“CAA”) 2020 was enacted. The CCA was enacted as a supplement to the CARES legislation providing additional financial relief

to taxpayers adversely impacted by restrictions put into place in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the CCA provides funding for public health initiatives in response to the pandemic. This legislation does not have a material impact on the Company’s tax provision.
