Note 1 The Company

Our tablet accessories include keyboards, keyboard cases and covers, headsets, wireless speakers, earphones and stands. Our Internet communications products include webcams, headsets, video communication services, and digital video security systems. Our digital music products include speakers, earphones, custom in-ear monitors, and Squeezebox Wi-Fi music players. For home entertainment systems, we offer the Harmony line of advanced remote controls. Our gaming products include a range of gaming controllers and microphones, as well as other accessories. Our video conferencing segment offers scalable HD (high-definition) video communications endpoints, HD video conferencing systems with integrated monitors, video bridges and other infrastructure software and hardware to support large-scale video deployments, and services to support these products.
We sell our peripheral products to a network of distributors, retailers and OEMs (original equipment manufacturers). We sell our video conferencing products and services to distributors, value-added resellers, OEMs, and, occasionally, direct enterprise customers. The large majority of our revenues have historically been derived from sales of our peripheral products for use by consumers.

Logitech International S.A. is a Swiss holding company with its registered office in Apples, Switzerland, which conducts its business through subsidiaries in the Americas, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and Asia Pacific. Shares of Logitech International S.A. are listed on both the Nasdaq Global Select Market, under the trading symbol LOGI, and the SIX Swiss Exchange, under the trading symbols LOGN and LOGNE.
Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Logitech and its subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP (accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America) for interim financial information and therefore do not include all the information required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In the quarter ended June 30, 2012, we recorded a reduction in deferred tax assets and a decrease to retained earnings of $6.3 million, related to vested unexercised non-qualified stock options for former employees who terminated in fiscal year 2012 and prior. We reviewed this accounting error utilizing SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 99, Materiality, and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Effects of Prior Year Misstatements on Current Year Financial Statements, and determined the impact of the error to be immaterial to any period presented.
Certain prior period financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation with no impact on previously reported net income.
In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2013, or any future periods.
Fiscal Year
The Companys fiscal year ends on March 31. Interim quarters are thirteen-week periods, each ending on a Friday. For purposes of presentation, the Company has indicated its quarterly periods as ending on the month end.
Changes in Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no substantial changes in our significant accounting policies during the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared with the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Although these estimates are based on managements best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the Company in the future, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Employee stock options, restricted stock units and similar share-based compensation awards granted by the Company are treated as potential shares in computing diluted net income per share. Diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive effect of in-the-money share-based awards which is calculated based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount that the employee must pay for exercising share-based awards, the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized, and the amount of tax impact that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when the award becomes deductible are assumed to be used to repurchase shares.
Share equivalents attributable to outstanding stock options and RSUs (restricted stock units) of 18,955,767 and 15,939,015 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Note 4 Employee Benefit Plans
Employee Share Purchase Plans and Stock Incentive Plans
As of June 30, 2012, the Company offers the 2006 ESPP (2006 Employee Share Purchase Plan (Non-U.S.)), the 1996 ESPP (1996 Employee Share Purchase Plan (U.S.)), the 2006 Plan (2006 Stock Incentive Plan) and the 2012 Plan (2012 Stock Inducement Equity Plan). The 2012 Plan was approved by the Board of Directors in April 2012. On April 13, 2012, the Company filed Registration Statements to register 5.0 million additional shares to be issued pursuant to the 2006 ESPP, and 1.8 million shares under the 2012 Plan. Shares issued to employees as a result of purchases or exercises under these plans are generally issued from shares held in treasury.

The total pretax intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $0.5 million and $0.3 million and the tax benefit realized for the tax deduction from options exercised during each of those periods was $0.1 million. The total fair value of options vested as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $70.6 million and $74.9 million.
The fair value of employee stock options granted and shares purchased under the Companys employee purchase plans was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing valuation model. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company also granted premium-priced stock options which will vest in full if and only when Logitechs average closing share price, over a consecutive ninety-day trading period, meets or exceeds the exercise price of the grants. The fair value of premium-priced stock options was estimated using the Monte-Carlo simulation method. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2011. The table below presents the assumptions used to determine the fair value of employee stock options, premium-priced stock options and shares purchased under the employee purchase plans:

The dividend yield assumption is based on the Companys history and future expectations of dividend payouts. The Company has not paid dividends since 1996. If approved by shareholders, the distribution of qualifying additional paid-in capital described in Note 11 is expected by management to be a one-time event. The expected option life represents the weighted-average period the stock options or purchase offerings are expected to remain outstanding. The expected life is based on historical settlement rates, which the Company believes are most representative of future exercise and post-vesting termination behaviors. Expected share price volatility is based on historical
volatility using the Companys daily closing prices over the term of past options or purchase offerings. The Company considers historical share price volatility of its shares as most representative of future volatility. The risk-free interest rate assumptions are based upon the implied yield of U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues appropriate for the term of the Companys stock options or purchase offerings.
The Company estimates option forfeitures at the time of grant and revises those estimates in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company uses historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures and records share-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.
The following table presents the weighted average grant-date fair values of options granted and the expected forfeiture rates. There were no stock options granted during the three months ended June 30, 2011.

The dividend yield assumption is based on the Companys history and future expectations of dividend payouts. If approved by shareholders, the distribution of qualifying additional paid-in capital described in Note 11 is expected by management to be a one-time event. The expected life of the performance-based RSUs is the service period at the end of which the RSUs will vest if the performance conditions are satisfied. The volatility assumption is based on the actual volatility of Logitechs daily closing share price over a look-back period equal to the years of expected life. The risk free interest rate is derived from the yield on U.S. Treasury Bonds for a term of the same number of years as the expected life.
Defined Contribution Plans
Certain of the Companys subsidiaries have defined contribution employee benefit plans covering all or a portion of their employees. Contributions to these plans are discretionary for certain plans and are based on specified or statutory requirements for others. The charges to expense for these plans for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $2.8 million and $3.1 million.
Defined Benefit Plans
Certain of the Companys subsidiaries sponsor defined benefit pension plans or non-retirement post-employment benefits covering substantially all of their employees. Benefits are provided based on employees years of service and earnings, or in accordance with applicable employee benefit regulations. The Companys practice is to fund amounts sufficient to meet the requirements set forth in the applicable employee benefit and tax regulations.
The net periodic benefit cost for defined benefit pension plans and non-retirement post-employment benefit obligations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows (in thousands):

Note 5 Income Taxes
The Company is incorporated in Switzerland but operates in various countries with differing tax laws and rates. Further, a portion of the Companys income before taxes and the provision for income taxes are generated outside of Switzerland.
On April 25, 2012, Logitech announced a restructuring plan to simplify the Companys organization, to better align costs with its current business, and to free up resources to pursue growth opportunities. A majority of the restructuring was completed during the three months ended June 30, 2012. In determining the annual effective tax rate, the restructuring was treated as a discrete event in the quarter as it was significantly unusual and infrequent in nature. As such, restructuring-related charges and costs were excluded from ordinary income in determining the annual effective tax rate. The tax benefit associated with the restructuring is approximately $0.2 million.
Tax benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $6.9 million and $9.5 million based on effective income tax rates of 11.7% and 24.4% of pre-tax loss. The change in the effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2011 is
primarily due to the mix of income and losses in the various tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates, and the treatment of restructuring expenses as a discrete event in determining the annual effective tax rate.
As of June 30 and March 31, 2012, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits and related accrued interest and penalties due to uncertain tax positions was $141.0 million and $143.3 million, of which $124.0 million and $125.4 million would affect the effective income tax rate if recognized. The Company classified the unrecognized tax benefits as non-current income taxes payable.
The Company continues to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax positions in income tax expense. As of June 30 and March 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $7.5 million of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company files Swiss and foreign tax returns. For all these tax returns, the Company is generally not subject to tax examinations for years prior to 1999. During fiscal year 2012, the IRS (U.S. Internal Revenue Service) completed its field examinations of tax returns for the Companys U.S. subsidiary for fiscal years 2006 and 2007, and issued NOPAs (notices of proposed adjustment) related to international tax issues for those years. The Company disagreed with the NOPAs and contested through the administrative process for the IRS claims regarding 2006 and 2007. On July 2, 2012, the IRS issued an RAR (Revenue Agents Report) for fiscal years 2006 and 2007 proposing revised assessments resulting from the administrative process. On July 12, 2012, the Company accepted the proposed revised assessments. The IRS is completing their RAR review process which generally takes sixty days from the time of acceptance. The proposed revised assessments will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated operating results.
In addition, the IRS is in the process of examining the Companys U.S. subsidiary for fiscal years 2008 and 2009. The Company is also under examination and has received assessment notices in other tax jurisdictions. At this time, the Company is not able to estimate the potential impact that these examinations may have on income tax expense. If the examinations are resolved unfavorably, there is a possibility they may have a material negative impact on the Companys consolidated operating results.
Although the Company has adequately provided for uncertain tax positions, the provisions on these positions may change as revised estimates are made or the underlying matters are settled or otherwise resolved. It is reasonably possible that resolution of fiscal years 2006 and 2007 with the IRS will lead to a decrease of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months, which may have a material positive effect on the Companys consolidated operating results. At this time, the Company is not able to estimate the change as of June 30, 2012.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Inventory as of June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 includes an adjustment of an immaterial amount and $8.5 million to reflect the lower of cost or market on the Companys inventory of Logitech Revue and related peripherals on hand. In the three months ended June 30, 2011, a valuation adjustment of $34.1 million was charged to cost of goods sold, as the result of managements decision in early July 2011 to reduce the retail price of Logitech Revue.

Note 7 Financial Instruments
Fair Value Measurements
The Company considers fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes the following three-level fair value hierarchy to establish the priorities of the inputs used to measure fair value:
· Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
· Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted market prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
· Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.
The following table presents the Companys financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value, except for assets related to the Companys defined benefit pension plans, classified by the level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of bank demand deposits and time deposits. The time deposits have original maturities of less than 32 days. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.
Investment Securities
The Companys investment securities portfolio consists of marketable securities related to a deferred compensation plan and auction rate securities collateralized by residential and commercial mortgages.
The marketable securities related to the deferred compensation plan are classified as non-current trading investments and do not have maturity dates. Since participants in the deferred compensation plan may select the mutual funds in which their compensation deferrals are invested, and may actively trade funds within the confines of the Rabbi Trust which holds the marketable securities, the Company has designated these marketable securities as trading investments. Management has classified the investments as non-current assets because final sale of the investments or realization of proceeds by plan participants is not expected within the Companys normal operating cycle of one year. The marketable securities are recorded at a fair value of $14.2 million and $14.3 million as of June 30 and March 31, 2012, based on quoted market prices. Quoted market prices are observable inputs that are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. Earnings, gains and losses on trading investments are included in other income
(expense), net. Unrealized trading loss of $0.3 million are included in other income (expense), net for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and relate to trading securities held at June 30, 2012.
The auction rate securities are classified as non-current available-for-sale securities. These securities are collateralized by residential and commercial mortgages, and are second-priority senior secured floating rate notes with maturity dates in excess of 10 years. Interest rates on these notes were intended to reset through an auction every 28 days, however auctions for these securities have failed since August 2007. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company sold its remaining two auction rate securities with a total carrying value of $0.4 million and a total par value of $15.2 million for $0.9 million. This sale resulted in $0.8 million of gain recognized in other income (expense), net, $0.3 million of which resulted from the recognition of a temporary increase in fair value previously recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The par value and original cost of the auction rate securities held as of March 31, 2012 was $15.2 million. These securities were recorded at an estimated fair value of $0.4 million at March 31, 2012. The estimated fair value was determined by estimating future cash flows through time according to each securitys terms, including periodic consideration of overcollateralization and interest coverage tests, and incorporating estimates of default rate, loss severity, prepayment, and delinquency assumptions when available, for the underlying assets in the securities based on representative indices and various research reports. The estimated coupon and principal payments were discounted at the rate of return required by investors, based on the characteristics of each security as calculated from the indices. Such valuation methods fall within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to its subsidiaries forecasted inventory purchases. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is the foreign currency exchange rate risk. The Company has designated these derivatives as cash flow hedges. Logitech does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. These hedging contracts mature within four months, and are denominated in the same currency as the underlying transactions. Gains and losses in the fair value of the effective portion of the hedges are deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the hedged inventory purchases are sold, at which time the gains or losses are reclassified to cost of goods sold. The Company assesses the effectiveness of the hedges by comparing changes in the spot rate of the currency underlying the forward contract with changes in the spot rate of the currency in which the forecasted transaction will be consummated. If the underlying transaction being hedged fails to occur or if a portion of the hedge does not generate offsetting changes in the foreign currency exposure of forecasted inventory purchases, the Company immediately recognizes the gain or loss on the associated financial instrument in other income (expense). Such gains and losses were immaterial during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Cash flows from such hedges are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The notional amounts of foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding related to forecasted inventory purchases were $98.2 million (78.0 million) and $66.3 million (45.8 million) at June 30, 2012 and 2011. The notional amount represents the future cash flows under contracts to purchase foreign currencies.
Other Derivatives
The Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the short-term effects of foreign currency fluctuations on certain foreign currency receivables or payables. These forward contracts generally mature within three months. The Company may also enter into foreign exchange swap contracts to economically extend the terms of its foreign exchange forward contracts. The primary risk managed by using forward and swap contracts is the foreign currency exchange rate risk. The gains or losses on foreign exchange forward contracts are recognized in earnings based on the changes in fair value.
The notional amounts of foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding at June 30, 2012 and 2011 relating to foreign currency receivables or payables were $6.4 million and $8.9 million. Open forward contracts as of June 30, 2012 consisted of contracts in euros to sell British pounds and contracts in Australian dollars to purchase U.S. dollars at future dates at pre-determined exchange rates. Open forward contracts as of June 30, 2011 consisted of contracts in British pounds to purchase euros at a future date at a predetermined exchange rate. The notional amounts of foreign exchange swap contracts outstanding at June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $24.7 million and $14.6 million. Swap contracts outstanding at June 30, 2012 consisted of contracts in Taiwanese dollars, Mexican pesos and Japanese yen. Swap contracts outstanding at June 30, 2011 consisted of contracts in Mexican pesos and Japanese yen.
The fair value of all our foreign exchange forward contracts and foreign exchange swap contracts is determined based on observable market transactions of spot currency rates and forward rates. Cash flows from these contracts are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Note 8 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
There were no changes in the Companys goodwill accounts during the three months ended June 30, 2012 or 2011 attributable to activity other than fluctuations in foreign currency rates.
The Company evaluates the goodwill of each reporting unit for impairment at least annually as of December 31, or more frequently if events or circumstances warrant. The Companys reporting units consist of peripherals and video conferencing. On April 25, 2012, the Company announced a restructuring plan as described in Note 13, and as a result, management performed a test to evaluate the recoverability of goodwill after implementation of the restructuring. The Company measures the recoverability of goodwill at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting units carrying amount, including goodwill, to the estimated fair value of the reporting unit. The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow model, which considers estimates of projected future operating results and cash flows, discounted at an estimated after-tax weighted-average cost of capital. In addition, market-based valuation techniques are used to test the reasonableness of the value indicated by the discounted cash flow model. In the market-based valuation technique, the implied premium of the aggregate fair value over the market capitalization is considered attributable to an acquisition control premium, which is the price in excess of a stocks market price that investors would typically pay to gain control of an entity. The discounted cash flow model and the market-based valuation techniques require the exercise of significant judgment, including assumptions about appropriate discount rates, long-term growth rates for purposes of determining a terminal value at the end of the discrete forecast period, economic expectations, timing of expected future cash flows, and expectations of returns on equity that will be achieved. Such assumptions are subject to change as a result of changing economic and competitive conditions. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss by allocating the reporting units fair value to its assets and liabilities other than goodwill, comparing the resulting implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying amount, and recording an impairment charge for the difference.
As of June 30, 2012, the carrying value of goodwill attributable to its peripherals and video conferencing reporting units was $219.3 million and $338.9 million. The goodwill impairment evaluation performed by management as of June 30, 2012 indicated that the fair value of its peripherals reporting unit exceeded the carrying value of the reporting unit by more than 70% of the carrying value, and the fair value of its video conferencing reporting unit exceeded the carrying value of the reporting unit by more than 100% of the carrying value.
In connection with the restructuring, management also reviewed long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and intangible assets, for recoverability by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with those assets to their carrying values. No impairment of long-lived assets was required as a result of the review.
Management continues to evaluate and monitor all key factors impacting the carrying value of the Companys recorded goodwill and long-lived assets. Further adverse changes in the Companys expected operating results, market capitalization, business climate, or other negative events could result in a material non-cash impairment charge in the future.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization expense for other intangible assets was $6.2 million and $6.6 million. The Company expects that amortization expense for the remaining nine months of fiscal year 2013 will be $18.2 million, and annual amortization expense for fiscal years 2014, 2015 and 2016 will be $18.2 million, $9.1 million, and $1.2 million, and $0.3 million thereafter.
Note 9 Financing Arrangements
In December 2011, the Company entered into a Senior Revolving Credit Facility Agreement with a group of primarily Swiss banks that provides for a revolving multicurrency unsecured credit facility in an amount of up to $250.0 million. The Company may, upon notice to the lenders and subject to certain requirements, arrange with existing or new lenders to provide up to an aggregate of $150.0 million in additional commitments, for a total of $400.0 million of unsecured revolving credit. The credit facility may be used for working capital, general corporate purposes, and acquisitions. There were no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility at June 30, 2012.
The credit facility matures on October 31, 2016. The Company may prepay the loans under the credit facility in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Borrowings under the credit facility will accrue interest at a per annum rate based on LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate), or EURIBOR (Euro Interbank Offered Rate) in the case of loans denominated in euros, plus a variable margin determined quarterly based on the ratio of senior debt-to-earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for the preceding four-quarter period, plus, if applicable, an additional rate per annum intended to compensate the lenders for the cost of compliance with regulatory reserve requirements and other banking regulations. The Company also pays a quarterly commitment fee of 40% of the applicable margin on the available commitment. In connection with entering into the credit facility, the Company incurred non-recurring fees totaling $1.5 million, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the credit facility.
The facility agreement contains representations, covenants, including threshold financial covenants, and events of default customary in Swiss credit markets. Affirmative covenants include covenants regarding reporting requirements, maintenance of insurance, maintenance of properties and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, and financial covenants that require the maintenance of net senior debt, interest cover and adjusted equity ratios determined in accordance with the terms of the facility. Negative covenants limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, among other things, to grant liens, make investments, incur debt, make restricted payments, enter into a merger or acquisition, or sell, transfer or dispose of assets, in each case subject to certain exceptions. As of June 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and conditions.
Upon an uncured event of default under the facility, the lenders may declare all or a portion of the outstanding obligations payable by the Company to be immediately due and payable, terminate their commitments and exercise other rights and remedies provided for under the facility. The events of default under the facility include, among other things, payment defaults, covenant defaults, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events and events that have a material adverse effect (as defined in the facility). Upon a change of control of the Company, lenders whose commitments aggregate more than two-thirds of the total commitments under the facility may terminate the commitments and declare all outstanding obligations to be due and payable.
The Company had several uncommitted, unsecured bank lines of credit aggregating $43.9 million at June 30, 2012. There are no financial covenants under these lines of credit with which the Company must comply. At June 30, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under these lines of credit. The Company also had credit lines related to corporate credit cards totaling $29.9 million as of June 30, 2012. The outstanding borrowings under these credit lines are recorded in other current liabilities. There are no financial covenants under these credit lines.
Note 10 Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Leases
The Company leases facilities under operating leases, certain of which require it to pay property taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. Operating leases for facilities are generally renewable at the Companys option and usually include escalation clauses linked to inflation. Future minimum annual rentals under non-cancelable operating leases at June 30, 2012 amounted to $106.0 million. In the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized additional rent expense of $3.4 million, representing the fair value of future rent obligations on its former Americas headquarters, which are no longer used by the Company.
In connection with its leased facilities, the Company has recognized a liability for asset retirement obligations representing the present value of estimated remediation costs to be incurred at lease expiration. The following table describes changes to the Companys asset retirement obligation liability for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (in thousands):

Product Warranties
Certain of the Companys products are covered by warranty to be free from defects in material and workmanship for periods ranging from one year to five years. At the time of sale, the Company accrues a warranty liability for estimated costs to provide products, parts or services to repair or replace products in satisfaction of the warranty obligation. The Companys estimate of costs to fulfill its warranty obligations is based on historical experience and expectations of future conditions. When the Company experiences changes in warranty claim activity or costs associated with fulfilling those claims, the warranty liability is adjusted accordingly. Changes in the Companys warranty liability for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (in thousands):

Commitments for inventory purchases are made in the normal course of business to original design manufacturers, contract manufacturers and other suppliers and are expected to be fulfilled by December 2012. Operating expense commitments are for consulting services, marketing arrangements, advertising, outsourced customer services, information technology maintenance and support services, and other services. Fixed purchase commitments for capital expenditures primarily related to commitments for computer hardware and leasehold improvements. Although open purchase orders are considered enforceable and legally binding, the terms generally allow the Company the option to reschedule and adjust its requirements based on the business needs prior to delivery of goods or performance of services.
Guarantees
Logitech International S.A., the parent holding company, has guaranteed payment of the purchase obligations of various subsidiaries from certain component suppliers. These guarantees generally have an unlimited term. The maximum potential future payment under the guarantee arrangements is limited to $36.0 million. At June 30, 2012, there were no purchase obligations outstanding for which the parent holding company was required to guarantee payment.
Logitech Europe S.A., a subsidiary of the parent holding company, has guaranteed the purchase obligations of another Logitech subsidiary and third-party contract manufacturers under three guarantee agreements. Two of these guarantees do not specify a maximum amount. The remaining guarantee has a total limit of $7.0 million. As of June 30, 2012, $3.6 million of guaranteed purchase obligations were outstanding under these guarantees. Logitech Europe S.A. has also guaranteed payment of the purchase obligations of a third-party contract manufacturer under three guarantee agreements. The maximum amount of these guarantees was $3.7 million as of June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, $1.7 million of guaranteed purchase obligations were outstanding under these agreements.
Logitech International S.A. and Logitech Europe S.A. have guaranteed certain contingent liabilities of various subsidiaries related to transactions occurring in the normal course of business. The maximum amount of the guarantees was $67.9 million as of June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, $15.7 million of guaranteed liabilities were subject to these guarantees.
Indemnifications
Logitech indemnifies some of its suppliers and customers for losses arising from matters such as intellectual property disputes and product safety defects, subject to certain restrictions. The scope of these indemnities varies, but in some instances, includes indemnification for damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys fees. No amounts have been accrued for indemnification provisions at June 30, 2012. The Company does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any material amounts will be required to be paid under its indemnification arrangements.
Logitech also indemnifies its current and former directors and certain of its current and former officers. Certain costs incurred for providing such indemnification may be recoverable under various insurance policies. Logitech is unable to reasonably estimate the maximum amount that could be payable under these arrangements because these exposures are not capped, the obligations are conditional in nature, and the facts and circumstances involved in any situation that might arise are variable.
Legal Proceedings
On May 23, 2011, a class action complaint was filed against Logitech International S.A. and certain of its officers in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of individuals who purchased Logitech shares between October 28, 2010 and April 1, 2011. The complaint relates to Logitechs disclosure on March 31, 2011 that its results for fiscal year 2011 would fall below expectations and seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief against the defendants. The action was transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on July 28, 2011. The California Court appointed a lead plaintiff on October 27, 2011. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on January 9, 2012 which expanded the alleged class period to between October 28, 2010 and September 22, 2011. On July 13, 2012, the California Court granted defendants motion to dismiss the amended complaint, with leave to amend.
On July 15, 2011, a complaint was filed against Logitech International S.A. and two of its subsidiaries in the United States District Court for the Central District of California by Universal Electronics, Inc. (UEI). On November 3, 2011, the Company filed a counter suit against UEI. On July 18, 2012, Logitech and UEI signed a nonbinding settlement and license agreement term sheet, and the District Court thereafter dismissed the suits without prejudice to the right, upon good cause shown within 60 days, to reopen the action if a settlement is not consummated.
In addition, from time to time the Company is involved in claims and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is currently subject to several such claims and a small number of legal proceedings.
The Company believes these lawsuits and claims lack merit and intends to vigorously defend against them. However, there can be no assurances that its defenses will be successful, or that any judgment or settlement in any of these lawsuits would not have a material adverse impact on the Companys business, financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. The Company is presently unable to estimate the effects of these claims and legal proceedings on its results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

(*) Certain products within the retail product families as presented in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, with no impact on previously reported total net retail sales.
The Company has two operating segments, peripherals and video conferencing, based on product markets and internal organizational structure. The peripherals segment encompasses the design, manufacturing and marketing of peripherals for PCs (personal computers), tablets and other digital platforms. The video conferencing segment consists of the LifeSize division, and encompasses the design, manufacturing and marketing of LifeSize video conferencing products, infrastructure and services for the enterprise, public sector and other business markets. The Companys operating segments do not record revenue on sales between segments, as such sales are not material.
Operating performance measures for the peripherals segment and the video conferencing segment are reported separately to Logitechs Chief Executive Officer, who is considered to be the Companys chief operating decision maker. These operating performance measures do not include share-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and assets by operating segment. Share-based compensation expense and amortization of intangible assets are presented in the following financial information by operating segment as all other. Long-lived assets are presented by geographic region. Net sales, operating loss and depreciation and amortization for the Companys operating segments were as follows (in thousands):
