CommScope Holding Company, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Background
CommScope Holding Company, Inc., along with its direct and indirect subsidiaries (CommScope or the Company), is a global provider of infrastructure solutions for communication and entertainment networks. The Company’s solutions for wired and wireless networks enable service providers including cable, telephone and digital broadcast satellite operators and media programmers to deliver media, voice, Internet Protocol (IP) data services and Wi-Fi to their subscribers and allow enterprises to experience constant, wireless and wired connectivity across complex and varied networking environments. The Company’s solutions are complemented by a broad array of services including technical support, systems design and integration. CommScope is a leader in digital video and IP television distribution systems, broadband access infrastructure platforms and equipment that delivers data and voice networks to homes. CommScope’s global leadership position is built upon innovative technology, broad solution offerings, high-quality and cost-effective customer solutions, and global manufacturing and distribution scale.
On April 4, 2019, the Company completed the acquisition of ARRIS International plc (ARRIS) (the Acquisition) in an all-cash transaction with a total purchase price of approximately $
As of January 1, 2020, the Company reorganized its internal management and reporting structure as part of the integration of the Acquisition. The reorganization changed the information regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. As a result, the Company now reports financial performance for the 2020 year based on four operating segments: Broadband Networks (Broadband), Home Networks (Home), Outdoor Wireless Networks (OWN) and Venue and Campus Networks (VCN). These four segments represent non-aggregated reportable operating segments. Prior to this change, the Company operated and reported five operating segments: Connectivity Solutions, Mobility Solutions, Customer Premises Equipment, Network and Cloud and Ruckus Networks. All prior period amounts in these condensed consolidated financial statements have been recast to reflect these operating segment changes.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period financial statements. The results of operations for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any future period or the full fiscal year. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the applicable requirements of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the 2019 Annual Report). The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2 within the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2019 Annual Report. Other than the enhancements described below to the allowance for doubtful accounts policy as a result of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, there were no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three or six months ended June 30, 2020.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Trade accounts receivable and contract assets for unbilled receivables are stated at the amount owed by the customer, net of allowances for estimated doubtful accounts, discounts, returns and rebates. The Company measures the allowance for doubtful accounts using an expected credit loss model, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade accounts receivable and contract assets. To measure the expected credit losses, trade accounts receivable and contract assets are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. Contract assets relate to unbilled work in progress and have substantially the same risk characteristics as trade accounts receivable for the same types of contracts. Therefore, the Company has concluded that the expected loss rates for trade accounts receivables are a reasonable approximation of the loss rates for the contract assets.
In calculating an allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company uses its historical experience, external indicators and forward-looking information to calculate expected credit losses using an aging method. The Company assesses impairment of trade accounts receivable on a collective basis as they possess shared credit risk characteristics which have been grouped based on the days past due.
The expected loss rates are based on the payment profiles of sales over the preceding thirty-six months and the corresponding historical credit losses experienced within this period. The historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle their trade accounts receivable.
Concentrations of Risk and Related Party Transactions
Net sales to Comcast Corporation and affiliates (Comcast) accounted for
The Company relies on sole suppliers or a limited group of suppliers for certain key components, subassemblies and modules and a limited group of contract manufacturers to manufacture a significant portion of its products. Any disruption or termination of these arrangements could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations.

Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is party to certain intellectual property claims and periodically receives notices asserting that its products infringe on another party’s patents and other intellectual property rights. These claims and assertions, whether against the Company directly or against its customers, could require the Company to pay damages, royalties, stop offering the relevant products and/or cease other activities. The Company may also be called upon to indemnify certain customers for costs related to products sold to such customers. While the outcome of the claims and notices is uncertain and a reasonable estimate of the loss from unfavorable outcomes in certain of these matters cannot be determined, an adverse outcome could result in a material loss.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a liability of $
The Company is either a plaintiff or a defendant in certain other pending legal matters in the normal course of business. Management believes none of these other pending legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition upon final disposition.
In addition, the Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing the use, discharge, disposal and remediation of hazardous materials. Compliance with current laws and regulations has not had, and is not expected to have, a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Asset Impairments
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or at other times if events have occurred or circumstances exist that indicate the carrying value of the reporting unit may exceed its fair value. See Notes 3 and 8 for discussion of goodwill impairment charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable, based on the undiscounted cash flows expected to be derived from the use and ultimate disposition of the assets. Assets identified as impaired are adjusted to estimated fair value. Equity investments without readily determinable fair values are evaluated each reporting period for impairment based on a qualitative assessment and are then measured at fair value if an impairment is determined to exist. Other than certain assets impaired as a result of restructuring actions, there were

Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income (loss), less any dividends and deemed dividends related to the Convertible Preferred Stock, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The numerator in diluted EPS is based on the basic EPS numerator adjusted to add back any dividends and deemed dividends related to the Convertible Preferred Stock, subject to antidilution requirements. The denominator used in diluted EPS is based on the basic EPS computation plus the effect of potentially dilutive common shares related to the Convertible Preferred Stock and equity-based compensation plans, subject to antidilution requirements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted During the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU No. 2018-19, ASU No. 2019-04, ASU No. 2019-05 and ASU No. 2020-02 (collectively, Topic 326). The new guidance replaces the incurred loss methodology with the current expected credit loss (CECL) methodology. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including trade accounts receivable. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with Topic 842.
The Company adopted Topic 326 using the modified retrospective method for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, which are primarily trade accounts receivable and contract assets for the Company. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under Topic 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable U.S. GAAP. The impact of adopting Topic 326 as of January 1, 2020 was not material to the consolidated financial statements.
Issued but Not Adopted
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform. The new guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. These transactions include contract modifications, hedging relationships, and sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity. The Company can elect to apply the amendments as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

CommScope Holding Company, Inc.

(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The new guidance is based on a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability in accounting for these transactions. The amendments in this guidance clarify the interaction of accounting for equity securities under Topic 321 and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting in Topic 323 and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options accounted for under Topic 815. ASU No. 2020-01 is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2021 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019 the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The new guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
2. ACQUISITIONS
On April 4, 2019, the Company acquired all of the issued ordinary shares of ARRIS in an all cash transaction with a total consideration of approximately $
During the first quarter of 2020, the Company completed its acquisition accounting and made the following adjustments to the provisional amounts that were previously recorded:
|
• |
An increase of $ |
|
• |
An increase in deferred tax assets of $ |
|
• |
A decrease in deferred tax liabilities of approximately $ |
The Company recorded these amounts as measurement period adjustments because the information was known as of the acquisition date but the analysis was finalized in the first quarter of 2020.
3. GOODWILL
As a result of the change in segments as discussed in Note 1, goodwill was reallocated from the previous segments to the new segments. The following table presents goodwill after the reallocation by new reportable segment:

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
The Company’s change in segments as of January 1, 2020 resulted in a realignment of its existing reporting units. Although the reporting units were realigned under the new segments, the Company’s reporting units remained the same except for where two reporting units have been combined into a new reporting unit. In this case, goodwill was simply combined in the new reporting units. Since the composition of the reporting units and the assignment of goodwill to the reporting units were unaffected, an interim goodwill impairment test due to the change in segments was not performed in the first quarter of 2020.
During the second quarter of 2020, the Company determined that indicators of goodwill impairment existed for the Home Networks reporting unit due to lower projected operating results, primarily from the accelerated decline in video devices. This trend is projected to continue as consumers adopt the use of other streaming applications and has been further impacted by the macro-economic effects caused by the new strain of coronavirus (COVID-19). The Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test during the second quarter of 2020 and recorded a $
Estimating the fair value of a reporting unit involves uncertainties because it requires management to develop numerous assumptions, including assumptions about the future growth and potential volatility in revenues and costs, capital expenditures, industry economic factors and future business strategy. Changes in projected revenue growth rates, projected operating income margins or estimated discount rates due to uncertain market conditions, loss of one or more key customers, changes in the Company’s strategy, changes in technology or other factors could negatively affect the fair value in one or more of the Company’s reporting units and result in a material impairment charge in the future.

8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, debt instruments, interest rate derivatives and foreign currency contracts. For cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were considered representative of their fair values due to their short terms to maturity. The fair values of the Company’s debt instruments, interest rate derivatives and foreign currency contracts were based on indicative quotes.
Fair value measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities fall within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, measurements using significant other observable inputs fall within Level 2, and measurements using significant unobservable inputs fall within Level 3.
The carrying amounts, estimated fair values and valuation input levels of the Company’s debt instruments, interest rate derivatives and foreign currency contracts as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, are as follows:

9. SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
As of January 1, 2020, the Company reorganized its internal management and reporting structure as part of the integration of the Acquisition. The reorganization changed the information regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. As a result, the Company is reporting financial performance based on
The Broadband segment provides an end-to-end product portfolio serving the telco and cable provider broadband market. The segment brings together the Network Cable and Connectivity business with the Network and Cloud business and includes converged cable access platform, passive optical networking, video systems, access technologies, fiber and coaxial cable, fiber and copper connectivity and hardened closures.
The Home segment comprises the former Consumer Premises Equipment business and focuses on the future of the connected home and connected devices inside the home. The segment includes subscriber-based solutions that support broadband and video applications connecting cable, telecommunications and satellite service providers to a customer’s home and adds wireless connectivity or other wired connections integrating in-home devices together to enable the consumption of internet-based services and the delivery of broadcast, streamed and stored video to televisions and other connected devices. Broadband offerings include devices that provide residential connectivity to a service provider’s network, such as digital subscriber line and cable modems and telephony and data gateways which incorporate routing and Wi-Fi functionality. Video offerings include set top boxes that support cable, satellite and IPTV content delivery and include products such as digital video recorders, high definition set top boxes and hybrid set top devices.
The OWN segment focuses on the macro and metro cell markets. The segment includes base station antennas, RF filters, tower connectivity, microwave antennas, metro cell products, cabinets, steel accessories, Spectrum Access System and Comsearch. As the Company’s wireless operator customers shift a portion of their 5G capital expenditures from the macro tower to the metro cell, the portfolio will strategically help to make the transition smooth and cost-effective.
The VCN segment targets both public and private networks for campuses, venues, data centers and buildings. The segment combines Wi-Fi and switching, distributed antenna systems, licensed and unlicensed small cells and enterprise fiber and copper infrastructure.
The following table provides summary financial information by reportable segment:

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In millions, unless otherwise noted)
The Company’s measure of segment performance is adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization). The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as operating income, adjusted to exclude depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, restructuring costs, asset impairments, equity-based compensation, transaction and integration costs and other items that the Company believes are useful to exclude in the evaluation of operating performance from period to period because these items are not representative of the Company’s core business.
The following table provides net sales, adjusted EBITDA, depreciation expense and additions to property, plant and equipment by reportable segment:

10. RESTRUCTURING COSTS
The Company incurs costs associated with restructuring initiatives intended to improve overall operating performance and profitability. The costs related to restructuring actions are generally cash-based and primarily consist of employee-related costs, which include severance and other one-time termination benefits.
In addition to the employee-related costs, the Company also records other costs associated to restructuring actions, such as impairment costs arising from unutilized real estate or equipment. As a result of prior restructuring and consolidation actions, the Company owns unutilized real estate and is attempting to sell or lease this unutilized space. Additional impairment charges may be incurred related to these or other excess assets, which are recorded as other associated costs.
The Company’s net pretax restructuring charges, by segment, were as follows:

The Company uses the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of stock option awards at the date of grant. Key inputs and assumptions used in the model include the grant date fair value of common stock, exercise price of the award, the expected option term, the risk-free interest rate, stock price volatility and the Company’s projected dividend yield. The expected term represents the period over which the Company’s employees are expected to hold their options. The risk-free interest rate reflects the yield on zero-coupon U.S. treasury securities with a term equal to the option’s expected term. Expected volatility is derived based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company’s projected dividend yield is

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following narrative is an analysis of the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The discussion is provided to increase the understanding of, and should be read in conjunction with, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this report as well as the audited consolidated financial statements, related notes thereto and management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, including management’s discussion and analysis regarding the application of critical accounting policies as well as the risk factors, included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
We discuss certain financial measures in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, including adjusted EBITDA, that differ from measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" included elsewhere in this quarterly report for more information about these non-GAAP financial measures, including our reasons for including the measures and material limitations with respect to the usefulness of the measures.
Overview
We are a global provider of infrastructure solutions for communication and entertainment networks. Our solutions for wired and wireless networks enable service providers including cable, telephone and digital broadcast satellite operators and media programmers to deliver media, voice, IP data services and Wi-Fi to their subscribers and allow enterprises to experience constant wireless and wired connectivity across complex and varied networking environments. Our solutions are complemented by a broad array of services including technical support, systems design and integration. We are a leader in digital video and Internet Protocol Television distribution systems, broadband access infrastructure platforms, and associated data and voice Customer Premises Equipment. Our global leadership position is built upon innovative technology, broad solution offerings, high-quality and cost-effective customer solutions, and global manufacturing and distribution scale.
On April 4, 2019, we completed the acquisition of ARRIS International plc (ARRIS) (the Acquisition) in an all-cash transaction with a total purchase price of approximately $7.7 billion, including debt assumed. The operations of the ARRIS business are included in our consolidated operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019; however, for the comparative three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the operations of the ARRIS business are included from the date of the Acquisition. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $7.6 million and $13.0 million, respectively, of transaction and integration costs and $19.6 million and $43.3 million, respectively, of restructuring costs related to the Acquisition and integration activities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized $167.0 million and $187.7 million, respectively, of transaction and integration costs and $46.4 million and $58.8 million, respectively, of restructuring costs related to the Acquisition and integration activities. We will continue to incur integration and restructuring costs and such costs may be material.
As of January 1, 2020, we reorganized our internal management and reporting structure as part of the integration of the Acquisition. The reorganization changed the information regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker for purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. As a result, we are reporting financial performance based on four new operating segments: Broadband Networks (Broadband), Home Networks (Home), Outdoor Wireless Networks (OWN) and Venue and Campus Networks (VCN). These four segments represent non-aggregated reportable operating segments. Prior to this change, we operated and reported five operating segments: Connectivity Solutions, Mobility Solutions, Customer Premises Equipment, Network and Cloud and Ruckus Networks. Our change in segments as of January 1, 2020 resulted in a realignment of our existing reporting units. Although the reporting units were realigned, our reporting units remained the same except for where two reporting units have been combined into a new reporting unit. In this case, goodwill was simply combined in the new reporting units. Since the composition of the reporting units and the assignment of goodwill to the reporting units were unaffected, an interim goodwill impairment test was not performed due to our change in segments during the first quarter of 2020. See the discussion below under “Critical Accounting Policies” for more information regarding the interim goodwill impairment test performed during the second quarter of 2020.
27
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the new strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic and the United States (U.S.) declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted regional and global economies, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility and disruption of financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving and certain jurisdictions, including those where we have operations, have also reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, “shelter in place” rules, social distancing protocols and restrictions on types of business that may continue to operate. While we have been deemed an “essential” (or equivalent) business in many jurisdictions and therefore have been permitted to continue most of our operations in those jurisdictions, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance has included temporary closures of our facilities and the facilities of certain of our customers, suppliers and other vendors in our supply chain. CommScope has taken measures to protect the health and safety of our employees (including implementing new and increased cleaning procedures, health screenings, safety protocols and social distancing requirements where appropriate), work with our customers and vendors to minimize potential disruptions and support our community in addressing the challenges posed by this global pandemic.
The COVID-19 outbreak impacted our financial performance during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, as discussed more below, particularly in our VCN and Home segments. While the impact in the first quarter 2020 was primarily related to supply constraints due to the shutdown of our factories in Suzhou, China, the impact in the second quarter included a combination of supply constraints, business continuity costs and demand impacts. Currently, most CommScope factories are fully operational, but we have experienced periodic, temporary factory closures in certain jurisdictions due to health concerns. From a demand standpoint, the impact has been mixed with network strain driving increased demand for our Broadband products, while VCN has been negatively impacted due to social distancing measures and the general economic slowdown. We currently expect the decline in revenue caused by the economic slowdown due to COVID-19 to persist through 2020. Additionally, we took a number of actions to reduce our operating costs and manage our balance sheet in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, including headcount reductions, improved working capital management, lower capital spending and suspension of certain discretionary spending.
The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic and related actions taken by domestic and international jurisdictions to prevent disease spread, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. We considered the impact of the economic slowdown on our evaluation of our significant estimates, including goodwill impairment indicators and credit losses, as of June 30, 2020. See the discussion below under “Critical Accounting Policies” for more information regarding the interim goodwill impairment test performed during the second quarter of 2020. Although no significant changes in credit risk were identified, it is possible credit losses could emerge as the impact of the crisis becomes clearer and those losses could be material.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Interim Impairment Review of Goodwill
We estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using a discounted cash flow (DCF) method or, as appropriate, a combination of the DCF method and a market approach known as the guideline public company method. Under the DCF method, we calculate the fair value of a reporting unit based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. The significant assumptions in the DCF model primarily include, but are not limited to, forecasts of annual revenue growth rates, annual operating income margin, the terminal growth rate and the discount rate used to determine the present value of the cash flow projections. When determining these assumptions and preparing these estimates, we consider historical performance trends, industry data, insight derived from customers, relevant changes in the reporting unit’s underlying business and other market trends that may affect the reporting unit. The discount rate is based on the estimated weighted average cost of capital as of the test date of market participants in the industry in which the reporting unit operates. Under the guideline public company method, we estimate the fair value based upon market multiples of revenue and earnings derived from publicly traded companies with similar operating and investment characteristics as the reporting unit. The weighting of the fair value derived from the market approach may vary depending on the level of comparability of these publicly-traded companies to the reporting unit. When comparable public companies are not meaningful or not available, we may estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using only the DCF method.
During the second quarter of 2020, we determined that indicators of impairment existed for our Home Networks reporting unit due to lower projected operating results, primarily driven by the accelerated decline in demand for video devices. This trend is projected to continue as consumers adopt the use of other streaming applications and has been further impacted negatively by the macro-economic effects of COVID-19. Accordingly, we assessed the fair value of our Home Networks reporting unit as of May 31, 2020 and recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $206.7 million in the Home segment. This reflects a full impairment of the remaining goodwill in the Home segment, and as such, the Home segment has no remaining goodwill balance as of June 30, 2020.
28
To determine the fair value of our Home Networks reporting unit and test for goodwill impairment, we developed a revised forecast for 2020 and updated the annual financial forecasts for the years beyond 2020. We used an income approach (DCF method) because we believe this is the most direct approach to incorporate the specific economic attributes and risk profile of the reporting unit into our valuation model. Consistent with our 2019 annual impairment test, we used a 9.0% discount rate for the interim goodwill impairment test for the Home Networks reporting unit. We determined that the utilization of a market approach for the interim goodwill impairment test would not impact the conclusion.
While no indicators of impairment existed for our other reporting units during the second quarter of 2020, we believe our Enterprise and Network and Cloud (N&C) reporting units could be at risk due to continued challenges in operating results and our ability to grow these businesses. The Enterprise reporting unit is in our VCN segment and the N&C reporting unit is in our Broadband segment. If assumed net sales and cash flow projections are not achieved in future periods, it is possible that the goodwill of these or other reporting units could be deemed to be impaired and the impairment could be material.
Other Developments
There have been no changes in our critical accounting policies as disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Note 1 in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of our adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, as of January 1, 2020. Our allowance for doubtful accounts is a significant accounting estimate and while the adoption of this new guidance impacted our allowance for doubtful accounts policy, it did not materially impact the estimate of our allowance for doubtful accounts. There were no other changes in our significant accounting estimates as disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased compared to the prior year period by $265.0 million in the Home segment, $129.7 million in the OWN segment and $71.6 million in the VCN segment. The declines in the Home and OWN segments were driven primarily by a slowdown in sales to both U.S. and international service provider customers as demand for video products and wireless network equipment decreased. The decline in the VCN segment was driven by decreases in sales of enterprise and Wi-Fi products. Net sales in the Broadband segment increased $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by approximately $750 million compared to the prior year period due to the Acquisition but this increase was partially offset by declines in the existing CommScope businesses primarily due to lower sales to wireless service providers and enterprise customers.
From a regional perspective, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, net sales were lower compared to the prior year period across all regions, including decreases of $147.2 million in the U.S., $112.3 million in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region, $101.4 million in the Caribbean and Latin American (CALA) region, $65.4 million in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region and $37.6 million in Canada. From a regional perspective, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, net sales were higher across all regions except for the APAC and CALA regions due to the Acquisition. Excluding the ARRIS business, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, net sales were lower compared to the prior year period across all regions, including decreases of approximately $95 million in the APAC region, $80 million in the EMEA region, $54 million in the U.S., $44 million in the CALA region and $7 million in Canada.
We believe supply constraints and lower demand caused by COVID-19 reduced our net sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. While it is difficult to quantify the demand impacts, we believe the most significant reductions in demand related to COVID-19 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were in our VCN segment. We estimate that COVID-19 supply chain disruptions reduced revenue by $50 million and $90 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Management currently expects the decline in net sales caused by the economic slowdown to persist through 2020.
Net sales to customers located outside of the U.S. comprised 35.6% and 37.8% of total net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to 41.5% and 41.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. For further details by segment, see the section titled “Segment Results” below.

Gross profit (net sales less cost of sales)
Despite lower sales, gross profit was relatively unchanged for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period primarily due to $164.1 million of acquisition accounting adjustments in the prior year related mostly to the mark-up of inventory to its estimated fair value. Excluding this adjustment, gross profit was $824.1 million, or 32.1% of sales, for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which is relatively flat when compared to gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Gross profit increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period due to the addition of the ARRIS business. Excluding the ARRIS business, gross profit decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $717.2 million, or 35.5% of sales, from $846.5 million, or 36.8% of sales, in the prior year primarily due to lower sales volumes in the existing CommScope businesses. We estimate that supply chain disruptions and incremental costs related to COVID-19 reduced gross profit by $30 million and $45 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
Selling, general and administrative expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense decreased primarily due to a reduction of $159.4 million in transaction and integration costs related to the Acquisition and, to a lesser extent, benefits from acquisition synergies and cost savings initiatives. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, SG&A expense decreased compared to the prior year period due to a reduction of $174.7 million in transaction and integration costs related to the Acquisition. Excluding transaction and integration costs, SG&A expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased due to the addition of SG&A expense of $130.8 million related to the ARRIS business. When compared to the prior year period, SG&A expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 benefited from acquisition synergies and other cost savings initiatives.
Research and development expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, research and development (R&D) expense remained relatively unchanged compared to the prior year period but increased as a percent of sales due to the decline in current year sales. R&D expense increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period due to the addition of R&D expenses of $121.4 million related to the ARRIS business. Excluding the ARRIS business, R&D expense and R&D expense as a percentage of sales increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to our continuing investment in certain VCN segment products. R&D activities generally relate to ensuring that our products are capable of meeting the evolving technological needs of our customers, bringing new products to market and modifying existing products to better serve our customers.

Amortization of purchased intangible assets
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, amortization of purchased intangible assets was lower compared to the prior year period because certain of our intangible assets became fully amortized. The amortization of purchased intangible assets was higher in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the addition of $95.5 million amortization related to the ARRIS business. Excluding the ARRIS business, amortization decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 by $3.6 million compared to the prior year period because certain of our intangible assets became fully amortized.
31
Restructuring costs, net
The restructuring costs recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were primarily related to integrating and preparing to integrate the ARRIS business. From a cash perspective, we paid $23.3 million and $43.1 million to settle restructuring liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and expect to pay an additional $21.0 million by the end of 2020 related to restructuring actions that have been initiated. In addition, we expect to pay $7.3 million between 2021 and 2022 related to restructuring actions that have been initiated. Additional restructuring actions related to the Acquisition are expected to be identified and the resulting charges and cash requirements are expected to be material.
Asset impairments
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $206.7 million related to our Home Networks reporting unit within our Home segment. See the discussion above under “Critical Accounting Policies” for more information regarding the interim goodwill impairment test performed during the second quarter of 2020. We did not record any asset impairment charges during the three or six months ended June 30, 2019.

Foreign currency gain (loss)
Foreign currency gain (loss) includes the net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the settlement of receivables and payables, foreign currency contracts and short-term intercompany advances in a currency other than the subsidiary’s functional currency. The increase in foreign currency loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year periods was primarily driven by certain unhedged currencies.
Other income, net
The increase in other income, net for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period was primarily due to gains on certain investments.

Interest expense and interest income
Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased compared to the prior year period due primarily to lower variable interest rates on our senior secured term loan due 2026 (the 2026 Term Loan) which reduced interest expense by approximately $16 million. Also contributing to the decrease was the prior year period write off of $4.1 million in original issuance discount and debt issuance costs related to the repayment of our senior secured term loan due 2022 (the 2022 Term Loan), which occurred when we obtained the 2026 Term Loan with the financing of the Acquisition, and lower debt balances on our 5.00% senior notes due 2021 (the 2021 Notes) due to the voluntary repayments in 2019. Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased compared to the prior year period due to the financing of the Acquisition that occurred in February 2019. The increase was partially offset by lower variable interest rates and lower debt balances on the 2021 Notes due to the voluntary repayments in 2019.
In March 2019, we entered into pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swap derivatives and designated them as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. These swaps effectively fixed the interest rate on a portion the 2026 Term Loan. The total notional amount of the interest rate swap derivatives as of June 30, 2020 was $600 million with outstanding maturities of up to forty-five months.
Our weighted average effective interest rate on outstanding borrowings, including the impact of the interest rate swap and the amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount, was 5.64% at June 30, 2020, 6.17% at December 31, 2019 and 6.26% at June 30, 2019.
Interest income decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to $0.8 million and $10.9 million, respectively, of interest earned on the proceeds of the acquisition-related debt that were held in an interest-bearing escrow account in the prior year period until the Acquisition date.
Income tax expense
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, our effective tax rate was 4.5% and 8.8%, respectively, and we recognized a tax benefit of $15.1 million on a pretax loss of $336.2 million and a tax benefit of $46.5 million on a pretax loss of $527.5 million, respectively. Our tax benefit was less than the statutory rate of 21.0% in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to a goodwill impairment charge of $206.7 million, for which minimal tax benefits were recorded, and $20.3 million and $21.9 million, respectively, of tax expense related to state valuation allowances. Excess tax costs of $3.7 million and $7.8 million related to equity compensation awards also impacted the tax benefit unfavorably for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.
Our effective income tax rate was 10.1% and 9.6% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. We recognized a tax benefit of $37.5 million on a pretax loss of $371.5 million and a tax benefit of $35.9 million on a pretax loss of $372.2 million, respectively. Our tax benefit was unfavorably impacted by the impact of U.S. anti-deferral provisions and foreign withholding taxes, but this impact was partially offset by the favorable impact of federal tax credits for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The impact of excess tax costs related to equity-based compensation awards was not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Broadband Networks Segment
Our Broadband segment provides an end-to-end product portfolio serving the telco and cable provider broadband market. The segment brings together the Network Cable and Connectivity business with the N&C business. The Broadband segment includes converged cable access platform, passive optical networking, video systems, access technologies, fiber and coaxial cable, fiber and copper connectivity and hardened closures.
Net sales for the Broadband segment were relatively unchanged for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period. From a regional perspective, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, net sales increased in the U.S. by $47.3 million but this increase was mostly offset by decreases across the other major regions including $26.1 million in the CALA region, $7.8 million in the EMEA region, $6.6 million in the APAC region and $4.4 million in Canada. Broadband segment net sales were higher in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period primarily as a result of the Acquisition. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, incremental net sales from the ARRIS business were approximately $653 million and $331 million, respectively. From a regional perspective, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, excluding the ARRIS business, Broadband segment net sales increased approximately $19 million in the U.S. but decreased across all other major regions, including decreases of approximately $18 million in the CALA region, $16 million in the APAC region, $14 million in the EMEA region and $4 million in Canada. Supply constraints related to the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected Broadband segment net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. However, we believe the segment also benefitted from increased demand for certain of its Broadband segment products. Management currently expects that the impact from COVID-19 will not significantly affect the Broadband segment for the remainder of 2020.
35
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Broadband segment operating income increased mainly due to reductions in transaction and integration costs of $107.1 million and $111.9 million, respectively, reductions in acquisition accounting adjustments related to the mark-up of inventory to its estimated fair value and deferred revenue of $77.0 million and $74.2 million, respectively, and reductions in restructuring costs of $14.1 million and $12.2 million, respectively. Transaction and integration costs, acquisition accounting adjustments and restructuring costs are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Broadband segment adjusted EBITDA increased due to the impact of cost savings initiatives offset partially by unfavorable product mix. Since the Broadband segment includes the acquired N&C business, both operating income and adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2020 are higher than the prior year period due to the incremental period of ARRIS results included in the current year. See “Reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA” below.
Home Networks Segment
Our Home segment offers broadband and video products. The segment includes subscriber-based solutions that support broadband and video applications connecting cable, telco and satellite service providers to a customer’s home and adds wireless connectivity or other wired connections integrating in-home devices together to enable the consumption of internet-based services and the delivery of broadcast, streamed and stored video to televisions and other connected devices. Broadband offerings include devices that provide residential connectivity to a service providers’ network, such as digital subscriber line and cable modems and telephony and data gateways which incorporate routing and Wi-Fi functionality. Video offerings include set top boxes that support cable, satellite and IPTV content delivery and include products such as digital video recorders, high definition set top boxes and hybrid set top devices.
Net sales for the Home segment decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to lower sales volumes of video products to both U.S. and international service provider customers. From a regional perspective, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, sales were down across all major regions including decreases of $96.2 million in the U.S., $61.1 million in the CALA region, $56.6 million in the EMEA region, $26.4 million in the APAC region and $24.7 million in Canada. Net sales for the Home segment increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 because the prior year period only included net sales since the April 4, 2019 acquisition date. We believe supply chain disruptions and lower demand caused by the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the decline in Home segment net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. We anticipate ongoing softness in the Home segment for the remainder of 2020 partially due to the impacts of COVID-19 but also due to the continuing declines in demand for video products.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Home segment operating loss increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to the goodwill impairment charge of $206.7 million in the current year period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Home segment operating income was favorably impacted by reductions in acquisition accounting adjustments related to the mark-up of inventory to its estimated fair value and deferred revenue of $20.0 million and $15.0 million, respectively, and reductions in restructuring costs of $10.2 million and $7.7 million, respectively, but these were partially offset by the unfavorable impacts of higher patent and litigation settlements of $4.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively. Asset impairments, acquisition accounting adjustments, restructuring costs and patent and litigation settlements are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, Home segment adjusted EBITDA decreased primarily due to lower sales. See “Reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA” below.
Outdoor Wireless Networks Segment
Our OWN segment focuses on the macro and metro cell wireless markets. The segment’s offerings include base station antennas, RF filters, tower connectivity, microwave antennas, metro cell products, cabinets, steel accessories, Spectrum Access System and Comsearch. As our wireless operator customers shift a portion of their 5G capital expenditures from the macro tower to the metro cell, the portfolio will strategically help make the transition smooth and cost-effective.
OWN segment net sales decreased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year periods primarily due to a slowdown in sales of wireless network equipment to both U.S. and international service provider customers. From a regional perspective, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, OWN segment net sales were lower across all regions and were primarily driven by decreases in the U.S. of $88.0 million and $90.4 million, respectively, the EMEA region of $20.4 million and $35.6 million, respectively, and the APAC region of $13.6 million and $29.7 million, respectively. We believe a portion of the decline in OWN segment net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was caused by lower demand as a result of the macroeconomic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. We currently believe the impact from COVID-19 could continue to negatively affect the OWN segment for the remainder of 2020.
36
OWN segment operating income and adjusted EBITDA decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year periods primarily due to the decrease in net sales. See “Reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA” below.
Venue and Campus Networks Segment
Our VCN segment targets both public and private networks for campuses, venues, data centers and buildings. The segment combines Wi-Fi and switching, distributed antenna systems, licensed and unlicensed small cells, and enterprise fiber and copper infrastructure.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, net sales decreased in the VCN segment primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. From a regional perspective, for the three months ended June 30, 2020, net sales decreased across all major regions including decreases of $27.5 million in the EMEA region, $19.0 million in the APAC region, $10.3 million in the U.S., $7.9 million in Canada and $6.9 million in the CALA region. VCN segment net sales were higher in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period primarily as a result of the Acquisition. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, incremental net sales related to the ARRIS business were $237.5 million and $147.6 million. From a regional perspective, for the six months ended June 30, 2020, excluding the ARRIS business, VCN segment net sales increased approximately $17 million in the U.S. but decreased across all other major regions, including decreases of approximately $49 million in the APAC region, $29 million in the EMEA region, $9 million in the CALA region and $3 million in Canada. We believe the primary driver for lower VCN segment net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was lower demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Management currently expects the impact of COVID-19 to continue to negatively affect the VCN segment for the remainder of 2020.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, VCN segment operating loss decreased primarily due to reductions in acquisition accounting adjustments related to the mark-up of inventory to its estimated fair value of $58.4 million and $56.1 million, respectively, and reductions in transaction and integration costs of $44.3 million and $50.0 million, respectively. These improvements were offset partially by the impacts of lower VCN segment net sales. VCN segment operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2019 only include the acquired Ruckus business after the April 4, 2019 acquisition date, which affects the segment’s comparability to the current year period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, adjusted EBITDA decreased primarily due to lower sales and to a lesser extent, unfavorable product mix, offset partially by the impacts of cost savings initiatives. Acquisition accounting adjustments and transaction and integration costs are not reflected in adjusted EBITDA. See “Reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA” below.

Working capital consisted of current assets of $3,747.8 million less current liabilities of $2,141.4 million at June 30, 2020. Working capital consisted of current assets of $3,511.8 million less current liabilities of $2,042.0 million at December 31, 2019. |

Total capitalization includes long-term debt, convertible preferred stock and stockholders’ equity. |
Our principal sources of liquidity on a short-term basis are cash and cash equivalents, cash flows provided by operations and availability under our credit facilities. In April 2020, we borrowed $250.0 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit Facility) as a precautionary measure to reinforce our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of the uncertainty in the global economy at that time resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. We subsequently repaid the full amount in July 2020 because we did not believe the proceeds were needed for future liquidity as our cash flow generation has continued to improve and the broader financial markets have continued to stabilize. On a long-term basis, our potential sources of liquidity also include raising capital through the issuance of additional equity and/or debt.
37
The primary uses of liquidity include debt service requirements (including voluntary debt repayments or redemptions), funding working capital requirements, paying acquisition integration costs, capital expenditures, paying restructuring costs, paying dividends related to the Convertible Preferred Stock, paying litigation claims and settlements and income tax payments. We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and cash flows from operations, combined with availability under the Revolving Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet our presently anticipated future cash needs. We may experience volatility in cash flows between periods due to, among other reasons, variability in the timing of vendor payments and customer receipts. We may, from time to time, borrow additional amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility or issue securities, if market conditions are favorable, to meet future cash needs or to reduce our borrowing costs.
Although there are no financial maintenance covenants under the terms of our senior notes, there is a limitation, among other limitations, on certain future borrowings based on an adjusted leverage ratio or a fixed charge coverage ratio. These ratios are based on financial measures similar to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as presented in the “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” section below, but also give pro forma effect to certain events, including acquisitions, synergies and savings from cost reduction initiatives such as facility closures and headcount reductions. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2020, our pro forma adjusted EBITDA, as measured pursuant to the indentures governing our notes, was $1,311.7 million, which included annualized synergies expected to be realized in the next two years ($65.9 million) and annualized savings expected from announced cost reduction initiatives ($41.4 million) so that the impact of the cost reduction initiatives is fully reflected in the twelve-month period used in the calculation of the ratios. In addition to limitations under these indentures, our senior secured credit facilities contain customary negative covenants based on similar financial measures. We believe we are in compliance with the covenants under our indentures and senior secured credit facilities at June 30, 2020.
Cash and cash equivalents increased during the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to the borrowing of $250.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility and cash generated from operating activities of $166.3 million, partially offset by the redemption of $100.0 million of the 2021 Notes and $47.7 million in capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2020, approximately 33% of our cash and cash equivalents were held outside the U.S.
Working capital, excluding cash and cash equivalents and the current portion of long-term debt, decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2020 due to a decrease in accounts receivable due to favorable collections and increases in accounts payable and other liabilities, but these were offset partially by an increase in inventory. The net reduction in total capitalization during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 reflected the net loss for the period and the redemption of $100.0 million of the 2021 Notes, offset partially by the $250.0 million borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, operating cash flows increased compared to the prior year period primarily due to more favorable collections of accounts receivable as well as a reduction of $185.0 million in cash paid for transaction and integration costs related to the Acquisition. These increases in cash generation were offset partially by $120.0 million in additional interest paid in the current year period as a result of the Acquisition-related debt as well as $55.0 million paid in the current year period related to patent claims and litigation.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, our investment in property, plant and equipment was relatively unchanged despite the incremental time the ARRIS business was owned in the current year, as management intentionally slowed capital spending in light of the economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our investments in property, plant and equipment were primarily related to supporting improvements in manufacturing operations, including expanding production capacity and investing in information technology, including software developed for internal use. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we paid $5.0 billion, net of cash acquired, using a combination of cash on hand, proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt and proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Stock to fund the Acquisition. We also paid $11.0 million related to the August 2017 acquisition of Cable Exchange during the prior year period. The final Cable Exchange payment of $3.6 million will be paid in the third quarter of 2020.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we borrowed $250.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility, redeemed $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes and paid the first and second quarter scheduled amortization payments totaling $16.0 million on the 2026 Term Loan. The borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility was a precautionary measure to reinforce our cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of the uncertainty in the global economy at that time resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and we subsequently repaid the amount in July 2020. Also in July 2020, we issued $700.0 million of 7.125% senior unsecured notes due 2028 and used the net proceeds from the offering to redeem and retire all outstanding amounts of the 2021 Notes and 5.50% senior notes due 2024. We may continue to look for favorable opportunities to refinance portions of our existing debt to lower borrowing costs, extend the term or adjust the total amount of fixed or floating-rate debt.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received proceeds from the acquisition-related debt of approximately $7.0 billion to fund the Acquisition. We repaid $225.0 million of the 2022 Term Loan in the first quarter of 2019 and we repaid the remaining balance of $261.3 million using proceeds from the 2026 Term Loan. As part of funding the Acquisition, we repaid ARRIS’ outstanding debt of $2.1 billion under its senior secured credit facilities. We also borrowed and repaid $15.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. In connection with the acquisition-related debt, we paid $118.1 million of debt issuance costs during the six months ended June 30, 2019.
As of June 30, 2020, we had remaining availability under the Revolving Credit Facility of $521.6 million, reflecting a borrowing base of $797.6 million reduced by $250.0 million of outstanding borrowings and $26.0 million of letters of credit.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we received proceeds of $0.9 million related to the exercise of stock options. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2020, employees surrendered 0.6 million shares of our common stock to satisfy their tax withholding requirements on vested restricted stock units and performance share units, which reduced cash flows by $6.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we received proceeds of $2.7 million related to the exercise of stock options and employees surrendered 0.4 million shares of our common stock to satisfy their tax withholding requirements on vested restricted stock units and performance share units, which reduced cash flows by $9.3 million.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We were not party to any significant off-balance sheet arrangements during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
We believe that presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial performance. We further believe that these financial measures are useful in assessing our operating performance from period to period by excluding certain items that we believe are not representative of our core business. We also use certain of these financial measures for business planning purposes and in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors.
We believe these financial measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate our performance and that of our competitors. However, our use of the term non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA may vary from that of others in our industry. These financial measures should not be considered as alternatives to operating income (loss), net income (loss) or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP as measures of operating performance, operating cash flows or liquidity.
We also believe presenting these non-GAAP results for the twelve months ended June 30, 2020 provides an additional tool for assessing our recent performance. Such amounts are unaudited and are derived by subtracting the data for the six months ended June 30, 2019 from the data for the year ended December 31, 2019 and then adding the data for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Although there are no financial maintenance covenants under the terms of our senior notes, there is a limitation, among other limitations, on certain future borrowings based on an adjusted leverage ratio or a fixed charge coverage ratio. These ratios are based on financial measures similar to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA as presented in this section, but also give pro forma effect to certain events, including acquisitions, synergies and savings from cost reduction initiatives such as facility closures and headcount reductions.

Reconciliation of Segment Adjusted EBITDA
Segment adjusted EBITDA is provided as a performance measure in Note 9 in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Below we reconcile segment adjusted EBITDA for each segment individually to operating income for that segment to supplement the reconciliation of the total segment adjusted EBITDA to consolidated operating income in that footnote.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or any other oral or written statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. These statements may discuss goals, intentions or expectations as to future plans, trends, events, results of operations or financial condition or otherwise, in each case, based on current beliefs of management, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, such management. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by their use of such terms and phrases as “intend,” “goal,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “projections,” “plans,” “potential,” “anticipate,” “should,” “could,” “designed to,” “foreseeable future,” “believe,” “think,” “scheduled,” “outlook,” “target,” “guidance” and similar expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain such terms. This list of indicative terms and phrases is not intended to be all-inclusive.
These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control, including, without limitation, risks related to the ARRIS acquisition (including risks associated with the integration of the business and systems and that we may not realize estimated cost savings, synergies, growth or other anticipated benefits); our dependence on customers’ capital spending on data and communication systems; concentration of sales among a limited number of customers and channel partners; changes in technology; the scope, duration and impact of disease outbreaks and pandemics, such as COVID-19, on our business including employees, sites, operations, customers and supply chain; industry competition and the ability to retain customers through product innovation, introduction, and marketing; risks associated with our sales through channel partners; changes to the regulatory environment in which our customers operate; product quality or performance issues and associated warranty claims; our ability to maintain effective management information technology systems and to successfully implement major systems initiatives; cyber-security incidents, including data security breaches, ransomware or computer viruses; the risk our global manufacturing operations suffer production or shipping delays, causing difficulty in meeting customer demands; the risk that internal production capacity or that of contract manufacturers may be insufficient to meet customer demand or quality standards; the use of open standards; the long-term impact of climate change; changes in cost and availability of key raw materials, components and commodities and the potential effect on customer pricing; risks associated with our dependence on a limited number of key suppliers for certain raw materials and components; the risk that contract manufacturers we rely on encounter production, quality, financial or other difficulties; our ability to integrate and fully realize anticipated benefits from prior or future divestitures, acquisitions or equity investments; potential difficulties in realigning global manufacturing capacity and capabilities among our global manufacturing facilities or those of our contract manufacturers that may affect our ability to meet customer demands for products; possible future restructuring actions; substantial indebtedness and restrictive debt covenants; our ability to incur additional indebtedness; our ability to generate cash to service our indebtedness; possible future impairment charges for fixed or intangible assets, including goodwill; income tax rate variability and ability to recover amounts recorded as deferred tax assets; our ability to attract and retain qualified key employees; labor unrest; obligations under our defined benefit employee benefit plans requiring plan contributions in excess of current estimates; significant international operations exposing us to economic, political and other risks, including the impact of variability in foreign exchange rates; our ability to comply with governmental anti-corruption laws and regulations and export and import controls worldwide; our ability to compete in international markets due to export and import controls to which we may be subject; the impact of Brexit; changes in the laws and policies in the United States affecting trade, including the risk and uncertainty related to tariffs or a potential global trade war that may impact our products; cost of protecting or defending intellectual property; costs and challenges of compliance with domestic and foreign environmental laws; the impact of litigation and similar regulatory proceedings that we are involved in or may become involved in, including the costs of such litigation; risks associated with stockholder activism, which could cause us to incur significant expense, hinder execution of our business strategy and impact the trading value of our securities; and other factors beyond our control. These and other factors are discussed in greater detail in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and may be updated from time to time in our annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports and other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q represents our best judgment as of the date of this report based on information currently available and reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that the expectations will be attained or that any deviation will not be material. Given these uncertainties, we caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We are not undertaking any duty or obligation to update this information to reflect developments or information obtained after the date of this report, except as otherwise may be required by law.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes in the interest rate risk, commodity price risk or foreign currency exchange rate risk information previously reported under Item 7A of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 20, 2020.
44
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
45
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is party to certain intellectual property claims and also periodically receives notices asserting that its products infringe on another party’s patents and other intellectual property rights. These claims and assertions, whether against the Company directly or against its customers, could require the Company to pay damages, royalties, stop offering the relevant products and/or cease other activities. The Company may also be called upon to indemnify certain customers for costs related to products sold to such customers. While the outcome of the claims and notices is uncertain and a reasonable estimate of the loss from unfavorable outcomes in certain of these matters cannot be determined, an adverse outcome could result in a material loss.
The Company is also either a plaintiff or a defendant in certain other pending legal matters in the normal course of business. Management believes none of these pending legal matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition upon final disposition.
In addition, the Company is subject to various federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing the use, discharge, disposal and remediation of hazardous materials. Compliance with current laws and regulations has not had, and is not expected to have, a materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows are subject to various risks which could cause actual results to vary from recent results or from anticipated future results. Other than the supplemental risk factor previously reported in Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, which risk factor is incorporated herein by this reference, there have been no material changes to our risk factors disclosed in Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
