Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except as noted)
(Unaudited)
1.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of July 1, 2017 and for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017 and July 2, 2016 include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statement of stockholders' equity, and statements of cash flows of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Motorola Solutions” or the “Company”) for all periods presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The results of operations for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Developments
On July 28, 2017, the Company announced its intention to purchase Plant Holdings, Inc., which owns the Airbus DS Communications business. This acquisition will expand the Company's software portfolio in the Command Center with additional solutions for Next Gen 9-1-1.
On May 1, 2017, the Company announced its intention to purchase Kodiak Networks, a provider of broadband push-to-talk (PTT) for commercial customers. The acquisition of Kodiak Networks reflects Motorola Solutions' strategy to build its communications and collaboration software portfolio. The acquisition is expected to be completed later this year.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This new standard will replace the existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU is the recognition of revenue for the transfer of goods and services equal to the amount an entity expects to receive for those goods and services. This ASU requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and estimates and changes in those estimates. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date" that delayed the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year to January 1, 2018, as the Company’s annual reporting period begins after December 15, 2017.
The Company has continued to analyze the impact of the new standard on its financial results based on an inventory of the Company's current contracts with customers. The Company has obtained an understanding of the new standard and currently believes that it will retain much of the same accounting treatment used to recognize revenue under current standards. Revenue on a significant portion of its contracts is currently recognized under percentage of completion accounting, applying a cost-to-cost method.
Under the new standard, the Company must identify the distinct promises to transfer goods and/or services within its contracts using certain factors. For contracts that are currently recognized under percentage of completion accounting, the Company has considered the factors used to determine whether promises made in the contract are distinct and determined that devices represent distinct goods. Accordingly, adoption of the new standard will impact the Company's percentage of completion contracts that include devices, with the resulting impact being revenue recognized earlier as control of the devices transfers to the customer at a point in time rather than over time. For the remaining promised goods and services within the Company's percentage of completion contracts, it will continue to recognize revenue on these contracts using a cost-to-cost method based on the continuous transfer of control to the customer over time. Transfer of control in the Company's contracts is demonstrated by creating a customized asset for customers, in conjunction with contract terms which provide the right to receive payment for goods and services.
In addition, the standard may generally cause issuers to accelerate revenue recognition in contracts which were previously limited by software revenue recognition rules. While the Company may have contracts which fall under these rules in the current standard, it has not historically deferred significant amounts of revenue under these rules as many arrangements are single-element software arrangements or sales of software with a tangible product which falls out of the scope of the current software rules. Based on the contracts currently in place, the Company does not anticipate a significant acceleration of revenue upon applying the new standard to its current contracts under these fact patterns.
The Company continues to evaluate the impact of ASU No. 2014-09 on its financial results and prepare for the adoption of the standard on January 1, 2018, including readying its internal processes and control environment for new requirements,

particularly around enhanced disclosures, under the new standard. The standard allows for both retrospective and modified retrospective methods of adoption. The Company expects to adopt this standard under the modified retrospective method of adoption, which recognizes the cumulative effect of transition as an adjustment to retained earnings for contracts that are not completed as of the adoption date, without restating prior period financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases," which amends existing guidance to require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by long-term leases and to disclose additional quantitative and qualitative information about leasing arrangements. The ASU is effective for the Company January 1, 2019 and interim periods within that reporting period. The ASU prescribes the use of a modified retrospective method upon adoption, which requires all prior periods presented in the financial statements to be restated, with a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” which clarifies eight specific cash flow issues in an effort to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified within the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for the Company January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. The Company intends to adopt this ASU January 1, 2018. Upon adoption, the ASU requires a retrospective application unless it is determined that it is impractical to do so, in which case it must be retrospectively applied at the earliest date practical. Upon adoption, the Company does not anticipate significant changes to the Company's existing accounting policies or presentation of the Statement of Cash Flows.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Accounting for Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Asset Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory,” as part of the Board’s simplification initiative aimed at reducing complexity in accounting standards. This ASU eliminates the current application of deferring the income tax effect of intra-entity asset transfers, other than inventory, until the transferred asset is sold to a third party or otherwise recovered through use and will require entities to recognize tax expense when the transfer occurs. The guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018 and interim periods within that reporting period; early adoption permitted. The Company intends to adopt the ASU January 1, 2018. The ASU requires a modified retrospective application with a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash," which requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of period and end of period balances on the statement of cash flows upon adoption of this standard. The ASU is effective for the Company January 1, 2018 with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption, the ASU requires the retrospective application. The Company does not anticipate significant changes to the Company's financial statements and related disclosures from adoption of the ASU.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, "Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) - Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost." The amendments in this update require that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic cost (benefit) and report that component in the same line item as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by employees during the period. The other components of net periodic cost (benefit) are required to be presented in the statement of operations separately from the service cost component and outside of operating earnings. The amendment also allows for the service cost component of net periodic cost (benefit) to be eligible for capitalization when applicable. The guidance will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018 and interim periods within that reporting period; early adoption permitted. The guidance on the income statement presentation of the components of net periodic cost (benefit) must be applied retrospectively, while the guidance limiting the capitalization of net periodic cost (benefit) in assets to the service cost component must be applied prospectively. The Company intends to adopt this ASU on January 1, 2018. Upon adoption, the Company plans to update the presentation of net periodic cost (benefit) accordingly, noting all components of the Company's net periodic cost (benefit), with the exception of the service cost component, will be presented outside of operating earnings. The estimated impact of adoption of the ASU will be a reclassification of certain components of net periodic benefit from operating earnings to other income (expense) in the amount of $37 million and $29 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

In the computation of diluted earnings per common share for the three months ended July 1, 2017, the assumed exercise of 2.1 million options, including 1.8 million subject to market-based contingent stock agreements, were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the six months ended July 1, 2017, the assumed exercise of 2.4 million options, including 2.0 million subject to market-based contingent stock agreements, were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.
For the three months ended July 2, 2016, the assumed exercise of 2.3 million options, including 2.1 million subject to market-based contingent stock agreements, and the assumed vesting of 0.6 million restricted stock units ("RSUs") were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the six months ended July 2, 2016, the assumed exercise of 3.2 million options, including 2.1 million subject to market-based contingent stock agreements, and the assumed vesting of 0.6 million RSUs were excluded because their inclusion would have been antidilutive.
On August 25, 2015, the Company issued $1.0 billion of 2% Senior Convertible Notes which mature in September 2020 (the "Senior Convertible Notes"). The notes are convertible based on a conversion rate of 14.5985 per $1,000 principal amount (which is equal to an initial conversion price of $68.50 per share). In the event of conversion, the Company intends to settle the principal amount of the Senior Convertible Notes in cash.
Because of the Company’s intention to settle the par value of the Senior Convertible Notes in cash upon conversion, the Company does not reflect any shares underlying the Senior Convertible Notes in its diluted weighted average shares outstanding until the average stock price per share for the period exceeds the conversion price. In this case, only the number of shares that would be issuable (under the treasury stock method of accounting for share dilution) will be included, which is based upon the amount by which the average stock price exceeds the conversion price of $68.50. For the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, the dilutive impact of the Senior Convertible Notes was 2.8 million shares and 2.6 million shares, respectively.

3. Debt and Credit Facilities
On April 25, 2017, the Company entered into a $2.2 billion syndicated, unsecured revolving credit facility expiring April 2022, which can be used for borrowing and letters of credit (the "2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement"). The 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement replaces the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement.
The 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement has a $500 million letter of credit sub-limit with $450 million of fronting commitments. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at the prime rate plus the applicable margin, or at a spread above the London Interbank Offered Rate, at the Company's option. An annual facility fee is payable on the undrawn amount of the credit line. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment if the Company's credit rating changes.
Under the 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement, the Company must comply with certain customary covenants including a maximum leverage ratio, as defined in the 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with it financial covenants as of July 1, 2017. The Company did not borrow or issue any letters of credit under the 2017 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement during the three months ended July 1, 2017.
On August 25, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Silver Lake Partners to issue $1.0 billion of 2% Senior Convertible Notes which mature in September 2020. The notes are convertible anytime on or after two years from their issuance date, except in certain limited circumstances including, for example, if the volume weighted average price of the Company's stock exceeds $85 for ten consecutive trading days, then up to 20% of the notes may be transferred, and then subsequently converted to shares of Company stock by such transferee. The notes are convertible based on a conversion rate of 14.5985 per $1,000 principal amount (which is equal to an initial conversion price of $68.50 per share).  During the three months ended July 1, 2017, the volume weighted average price of the Company's stock exceeded $85 for ten consecutive trading days, making 20% of Senior Convertible Notes convertible. In the event of conversion, the notes may be settled in either cash or stock, at the Company's discretion. The Company intends to settle the principal amount of the Senior Convertible Notes in cash.

4. Risk Management
Foreign Currency Risk
As of July 1, 2017, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $590 million, compared to $717 million outstanding at December 31, 2016. The Company does not believe these financial instruments should subject it to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should generally offset gains and losses on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions.
The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts of the positions to buy or sell foreign currency as of July 1, 2017, and the corresponding positions as of December 31, 2016

During the six months ended July 1, 2017, the Company entered into forward contracts to sell £50 million, expiring in December 2017. The forward contracts have been designated as a net investment hedge which is in place to partially hedge the Company's British Pound foreign currency exposure on its net investment in Airwave Solutions Limited. The gains and losses on the Company's net investment in pound-denominated foreign operations, driven by changes in foreign exchange rates, are economically offset by movements in the fair values of the forward contracts designated as net investment hedges. Any changes in fair value of the net investment hedges are reflected as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss. As of July 1, 2017, the fair value of the derivative contract was $2 million.

Interest Rate Risk
One of the Company’s European subsidiaries has Euro-denominated loans. The interest on the Euro-denominated loans is variable. The Company has interest rate swap agreements in place which change the characteristics of interest rate payments from variable to maximum fixed-rate payments. The interest rate swaps are not designated as a hedge. As such, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps are included in Other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the interest rate swaps liability was de minimus at both July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
Counterparty Risk
The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties. However, the Company’s risk is limited to the fair value of the instruments when the derivative is in an asset position. The Company actively monitors its exposure to credit risk. As of July 1, 2017, all of the counterparties have investment grade credit ratings. As of July 1, 2017, the Company had $6 million of exposure to aggregate net credit risk with all counterparties.
The following tables summarize the fair values and locations in the condensed consolidated balance sheets of all derivative financial instruments held by the Company as of July 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016:

5. Income Taxes
At the end of each interim reporting period, the Company makes an estimate of its annual effective income tax rate. Tax expense in interim periods is calculated at the estimated annual effective tax rate plus or minus the tax effects of items of income and expense that are discrete to the period. The estimate used in providing for income taxes on a year-to-date basis may change in subsequent interim periods.
The following table provides details of income taxes:

The Company recorded $73 million of net tax expense during the three months ended July 1, 2017, resulting in an effective tax rate of 36%, compared to $59 million of net tax expense during the three months ended July 2, 2016, resulting in an effective tax rate of 35%. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2017 was greater than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% partly due to change of estimates between provision and the filing of tax returns in foreign jurisdictions. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2016 was equal to the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35%.
The Company recorded $114 million of net tax expense during the six months ended July 1, 2017, resulting in an effective tax rate of 35%, compared to $64 million of net tax expense during the six months ended July 2, 2016, resulting in an effective tax rate of 34%. The effective tax rate in the first half of 2017 was equal to the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35%. The effective tax rate in the first half of 2016 was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% partly due to the recognition of excess tax benefits on share-based compensation.

During the six months ended July 1, 2017, the Company offered lump-sum settlements to certain participants in the Non-US defined benefit plan within the United Kingdom. The lump-sum settlements were targeted to certain participants who had accrued a pension benefit, but had not yet started receiving pension benefit payments. As of June 30, 2017, the window for the participant registration in the program has closed. However, the Company expects to account for continuing settlements through the third quarter of 2017, as remaining lump-sum settlements are paid to participants. As a result of the actions taken through the first half of 2017, the Company recorded a settlement loss of $16 million and $25 million during the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, which is recorded within Other Charges within the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
During the six months ended July 2, 2016, the Company made an amendment to the Postretirement Health Care Benefits Plan (the “Amendment”). As a result of the Amendment, all eligible retirees under the age of 65 will be provided an annual subsidy per household, versus per individual, toward the purchase of their own health care coverage from private insurance companies and for the reimbursement of eligible health care expenses. The Amendment to the Postretirement Health Care Benefits Plan required a remeasurement of the plan, resulting in a $53 million reduction in the Accumulated Postretirement Benefit Obligation. A substantial portion of the decrease is related to a prior service credit and will be recognized as a credit to the condensed consolidated statements of operations over approximately five years, or the period in which the remaining employees eligible for the plan will qualify for benefits under the plan.

During the six months ended July 1, 2017, the Company granted 0.5 million RSUs and 0.1 million market stock units ("MSUs") with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $39 million and $6 million, respectively, and 0.3 million stock options and 0.6 million performance options ("POs") with an aggregate grant-date fair value of $5 million and $9 million, respectively. Share-based compensation expense will generally be recognized over the vesting period of three years.

8. Fair Value Measurements
The Company holds certain fixed income securities, equity securities and derivatives, which are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Fair value is measured using the fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies as defined in the authoritative literature. This guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to each measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about current market conditions.
The fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies are as follows:
Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques, in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

10. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits, claims, and actions, which arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations in the periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved, or in the periods in which more information is obtained that changes management's opinion of the ultimate disposition.
Other Indemnifications
The Company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it is obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. In indemnification cases, payment by the Company is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the other party's claims. In some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by the Company.
Some of these obligations arise as a result of divestitures of the Company's assets or businesses and require the Company to indemnify the other party against losses arising from breaches of representations and warranties and covenants and, in some cases, the settlement of pending obligations. The Company's obligations under divestiture agreements for indemnification based on breaches of representations and warranties are generally limited in terms of duration and to amounts not in excess of a percentage of the contract value. The Company had no accruals for any such obligations at July 1, 2017.
In addition, the Company may provide indemnifications for losses that result from the breach of general warranties contained in certain commercial and intellectual property agreements. Historically, the Company has not made significant payments under these agreements.

13. Intangible Assets and Goodwill
The Company accounts for acquisitions using purchase accounting with the results of operations for each acquiree included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements for the period subsequent to the date of acquisition.
Guardian Digital Communications Limited
On February 19, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of Guardian Digital Communications Limited ("GDCL"), a holding company of Airwave Solutions Limited (collectively referred to as "Airwave"), the largest private operator of a public safety network in the world. All of the outstanding equity of Airwave was acquired for the sum of £1, after which the Company

21


invested into Airwave £698 million, net of cash acquired, or approximately $1.0 billion, to settle all third party debt. The Company will make a deferred cash payment of £64 million on November 15, 2018. 
The acquisition of Airwave enables the Company to geographically diversify its global Managed & Support services offerings, while offering a proven service delivery platform to build on for providing innovative, leading, mission-critical communications solutions and services to customers.
The acquisition of Airwave has been accounted for at fair value as of the acquisition date, based on the fair value of the total consideration transferred which has been attributed to all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed and measured at fair value.
The total consideration for the acquisition of Airwave was approximately $1.1 billion, consisting of cash payments of $1.0 billion, net of cash acquired, and deferred consideration valued at fair value on the date of the acquisition of $82 million. The fair value of deferred consideration has been determined based on its net present value, calculated using a discount rate of 4.2%, which is reflective of the credit standing of the combined entity. The following table summarizes fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the February 19, 2016 acquisition date:

Acquired intangible assets consist of $846 million of customer relationships and $29 million of trade names. All intangibles have a useful life of seven years, over which amortization expense will be recognized on a straight line basis. Acquired goodwill of $191 million is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the future economic benefits arising from the other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
Other Acquisitions
On July 28, 2017, the Company announced its intention to purchase Plant Holdings, Inc., which owns the Airbus DS Communications business. This acquisition will expand the Company's software portfolio in the Command Center with additional solutions for Next Gen 9-1-1.
On May 1, 2017, the Company announced its intention to purchase Kodiak Networks, a provider of broadband push-to-talk (PTT) for commercial customers. The acquisition of Kodiak Networks reflects Motorola Solutions' strategy to build its communications and collaboration software portfolio. The acquisition is expected to be completed later this year.
On March 13, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Interexport, a company that provides Managed & Support services for communications systems to public safety and commercial customers in Chile, for a gross purchase price of $98 billion Chilean Pesos, or approximately $147 million U.S. Dollars based on cash proceeds of $55 million, net of cash acquired, and assumed liabilities of $92 million, primarily related to capital leases. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized $7 million of goodwill, $61 million of identifiable intangible assets, $70 million of acquired property, plant and equipment and $9 million of net other tangible assets. The estimated identifiable intangible assets were classified as $56 million of customer-related intangibles and $5 million of other intangibles and will be amortized over a period of seven years.
On November 10, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of Spillman Technologies, Inc., a provider of comprehensive law enforcement and public safety software solutions, for a gross purchase price of $221 million. As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized $144 million of goodwill, $115 million of identifiable intangible assets, and $38 million of acquired liabilities. The identifiable intangible assets were classified as $49 million of completed technology, $59 million of customer-related intangibles, and $7 million of other intangibles and will be amortized over a period of seven to ten years.
During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company completed the acquisition of several software and service-based providers for a total of $30 million, recognizing $6 million of goodwill, $15 million of intangible assets, and $9 million of tangible net assets related to these acquisitions. Under the preliminary purchase accounting, the $15 million of identifiable intangible assets were classified as: (i) $7 million of completed technology and (ii) $8 million of customer-related intangibles and will be
