Interim Group Management Report (unaudited)

Infineon`s performance in the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year:

________________________________________________________________

  • › Revenue and Segment Result for nine-month period increased
  • › Net income and earnings per share well up on previous year, adjusted earnings per share improved
  • › Despite difficult market conditions, growth forecast for full year reaffirmed within revenue guidance range forecast in preceding quarters

________________________________________________________________

"Revenue, earnings and margin all increased in line with expectations in the third quarter. Demand was particularly strong for our automotive electronics, renewables and power supply solutions. Despite the current contraction of the semiconductor market and contrary to many of our competitors, Infineon has grown once again compared to the prior year's corresponding quarter, reflecting its focus on sub-markets with structural growth. We therefore continue to forecast a long-term compound annual growth rate of 8 percent," stated Dr. Reinhard Ploss, CEO of Infineon. "We are enabling cleaner and safer cars, greener energy and even faster mobile communication. The planned acquisition of Wolfspeed will secure us a decisive technological advantage in the long term and help us grow our system understanding. We are thereby focusing on promising growth areas such as electromobility and the Internet of Things."

Operating segment performance in third quarter of the 2016 fiscal year1

In the third quarter of the 2016 fiscal year, revenue grew from €1,611 million to €1,632 million compared to the preceding quarter. Contributions to this 1 percent revenue growth came from the Automotive, Industrial Power Control and Power Management & Multimarket segments. As expected, revenue reported by the Chip Card & Security segment decreased slightly.

Compared to the previous year the Automotive and Industrial Power Control segments recorded third-quarter revenue growth, while Chip Card & Security segment revenue was unchanged. The Power Management & Multimarket segment posted lower revenue than one year earlier.

Effective October 1, 2015, business with XMC industrial microcontrollers – jointly developed by Automotive and Chip Card & Security – was transferred to Power Management & Multimarket and Industrial Power Control. The previous year's figures have been adjusted accordingly.

1 With effect from the quarterly financial report as of December 31, 2015, Infineon Technologies AG has adjusted its reporting on operating segments in order to provide uniform external reporting and improve the comparability and clarity of presentation.

Notable events during the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year

January 2016

Infineon rated among the most sustainable companies in the world for sixth consecutive time

Infineon has been included in the Sustainability Year book of the Swiss investment company RobecoSAM for the sixth time running. Infineon therefore continues to be ranked among the top 15 percent of companies with the best corporate sustainability record worldwide and among the top ten companies in the semiconductor sector.

April 2016

Infineon successfully completes \$935 million US Private Placement of notes in the USA

In April 2016, Infineon successfully completed a US Private Placement (USPP) of notes with a nominal volume of US\$935 million and subsequently repaid the US\$934 million loan, previously raised to finance the acquisition of International Rectifier.

The notes issued in conjunction with the USPP comprise three tranches with eight-, ten- and twelve-year maturities. The transaction enhances Infineon's debt profile and results in a further diversification of the financing sources available to it.

May 2016

Start of volume production at Kulim 2

After starting the process of equipping Kulim 2 – Infineon's second manufacturing building in Kulim (Malaysia) – with cleanroom machinery in January 2016, volume production officially commenced on May 13, 2016. The Kulim location was initially opened in 2006 and remains Infineon's only frontend site in Asia. The opening of the second manufacturing facility doubles Infineon's capacity in Kulim. Once the two plants are working at full capacity, they will provide jobs for some 3,000 employees. The chips produced there on wafers are destined for use in components for automotive applications and power supplies. The new manufacturing facility has been equipped in accordance with "Industrie 4.0" standards, with intelligent manufacturing and racking systems enhancing work process efficiency.

May 2016

Changes in Infineon's Management Board

Infineon is enlarging its Management Board from three to four members. Following the strong growth seen in recent years and the successful integration of International Rectifier, the management team is being reinforced with a view to continuing the company's success story. Jochen Hanebeck, previously Division President Automotive, has been appointed Member of the Board for the newly created "Operations" function, effective July 1, 2016. Moreover, also with effect from July 1, 2016, Dr. Helmut Gassel, previously Division President Industrial Power Control, has been appointed Member of the Board for Strategy Development, Sales & Marketing and Regions. Arunjai Mittal, previously responsible for these areas, will leave Infineon for family reasons effective September 30, 2016.

June 2016

Infineon's 3D image sensor is bringing Augmented Reality to the smartphone

Infineon's 3D image sensor chip REAL3™ enables a three-dimensional perception of the surroundings in real-time. The first smartphone to be equipped with this sensor is the PHAB2 Pro from Lenovo. The sensor allows the smartphone instant access to Augmented Reality, benefiting from the phone's motion tracking feature, which responds to physical movements, depth perception that measures the distance between objects and area learning capability which enables the device to recall the data recorded from previously visited locations. The ability of devices to see in 3D is expected to lead to a variety of new applications, in both the consumer and the automotive worlds, including monitoring or gesture detection inside the car.

The Infineon Share

The Infineon share finished the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year at €12.98, thus 29 percent up on the Xetra closing price of €10.06 recorded on September 30, 2015.

Performance of the Infineon share, the DAX, the SOX and the Dow Jones U.S. Semiconductor Index during the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year (daily closing prices)

Following the dividend increase from €0.12 to €0.18 for the 2014 fiscal year, at the Annual General Meeting for the 2015 fiscal year held on February 18, 2016, Infineon's Management Board and Supervisory Board decided to propose that the dividend be raised again to €0.20. The shareholders voted in favor of the proposal, as a result of which a total amount of €225 million was disbursed to shareholders on February 19, 2016. At June 30, 2016, a total of 1,132,136,071 shares were in issue. This figure includes 6 million own shares (unchanged since the end of the previous reporting period) that do not qualify for the payment of a dividend.

Review of Business Environment

In its latest outlook for the global economy, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) left its growth forecast of 2.5 percent for the 2016 calendar year largely unchanged (IMF, July 2016). Based on the IMF's assessment, risks for the global economy have continued to rise. Despite this trend, however, financial and oil markets continued to recover during the first six months of the 2016 calendar year. For the 2017 calendar year, the IMF currently predicts further year-on-year growth of 2.8 percent, down from the 2.9 percent it had still forecast in April 2016 for the 2017 calendar year.

The semiconductor market as a whole has continued to slow down in recent months, primarily due to the downward pressure on prices for memory products and the sluggish smartphone market. Although this market is still forecast to grow, the double-digit growth rates observed in the past seem to be over. Renewable energy (wind and solar), electric mobility and driver assistance systems remain growth drivers.

According to the market research company IHS Markit, the industrial semiconductor market will be the growing application segment in the 2016 calendar year with a growth rate of 6.0 percent. IHS Markit also forecasts above-average growth (4.5 percent) for the automotive semiconductor market in the 2016 calendar year. Growth rates of 7.6 percent and 6.3 percent respectively are forecast for the industrial and automotive semiconductor markets in the 2017 calendar year. For the semiconductor market as a whole, IHS Markit is currently forecasting negative growth of 4.5 percent for the 2016 calendar year (downgraded from the negative growth rate of 2.9 percent forecast in April), followed by growth of 2.5 percent for the 2017 calendar year.

Net income improved

Net income for the nine-month period under report improved by €209 million to €518 million year-on-year. The contribution to revenue from International Rectifier, the generally positive trend in Infineon's business and the strong US dollar brought about a 14 percent increase in revenue to €4,798 million. The earnings contribution from higher revenue and lower income tax expense (see note 5 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements) resulted in a 68 percent jump in net income compared to the previous year, with depreciation, amortization and other expenses relating to the acquisition of International Rectifier – in particular the earnings impact arising from the purchase price allocation – totaling €149 million (October 2014 - June 2015: €213 million).

In the previous fiscal year, International Rectifier was included with effect from January 13, 2015, whereas the figures for the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year include International Rectifier for the full reporting period.

International Rectifier, positive business trend and strength of US dollar result in higher revenue

Revenue for the nine-month period increased by €601 million to €4,798 million (October 2014 - June 2015: €4,197 million). Thanks to the acquisition of International Rectifier (closed on January 13, 2015), market share gains through organic growth and the appreciation of the US dollar (exchange rate of US\$ 1.11 to the euro compared to US\$ 1.16 to the euro in the same period one year earlier), all four operating segments were able to increase nine-month revenue compared to the same period in the previous year.

Importance of Asia-Pacific and China continues to grow

The acquisition of International Rectifier further improved the access to the Chinese and US markets, a fact reflected in above-average revenue growth in these regions. Infineon also grew in all other regions.

At €347 million, more than one half (58 percent) of the revenue increase related to the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan), followed by the Europe, Middle East and Africa region, where revenue rose by €117 million (19 percent of the total increase).

The Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan) had already taken the lead as the strongest region during the previous fiscal year, when it accounted for 46 percent of revenue, ahead of the Europe, Middle East and Africa region with 36 percent. The importance of the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan) continued to grow during the third quarter, accounting for 47 percent and therefore nearly one half of Infineon's worldwide revenue during the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year, compared to the 34 percent generated in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region. Within the Asia-Pacific region (excluding Japan), China accounted for the largest share of worldwide revenue at individual country level, with revenue of €1,152 million or 24 percent.

Increase in gross margin

Gross profit (revenue less cost of goods sold) for the nine-month period amounted to €1,722 million, an 18 percent improvement on the €1,456 million recorded one year earlier. The percentage increase in gross profit was therefore more pronounced than the 14 percent growth rate posted for revenue.

The gross margin improved accordingly from 34.7 percent to 35.9 percent for the comparable nine-month periods. The increase compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year is primarily due to a lower earnings effect from the International Rectifier purchase price allocation and other acquisition-related expenses which totaled €73 million compared to €117 million in the same period of the previous fiscal year (in particular higher depreciation/amortization on intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, which were revalued to their fair value as part of the purchase price allocation, as well as additional expense included in the previous fiscal year arising from the consumption of inventories revalued to their fair value).

Slight decrease in ratio of operating expenses to revenue

Nine-month operating expenses (research and development expenses as well as selling, general and administrative expenses) increased by €102 million or 9 percent to €1,185 million (October 2014 - June 2015: €1,083 million). In percentage terms, operating expenses corresponded to 24.7 percent of nine-month revenue, compared with 25.8 percent one year earlier.

Research and development expenses amounted to €590 million and were therefore €70 million or 13 percent higher than the €520 million reported for the first nine months of the previous fiscal year. The main reasons for the increase were firstly the inclusion of International Rectifier for the full nine-month period of the current fiscal year compared to the 2015 fiscal year, and secondly increased research and development activities, including the recruitment of additional employees, aimed at broadening the basis for further growth. A total of 5,994 employees were working in research and development functions at the end of the reporting period (June 30, 2015: 5,670 employees). Expressed as a percentage of revenue, research and development expenses decreased slightly from 12.4 percent to 12.3 percent compared with the same nine-month period one year earlier.

Earnings per share improved

The improvement in net income resulted in a corresponding increase in earnings per share. Compared to earnings per share of €0.27 (basic and diluted) for the first nine months of the 2015 fiscal year, the corresponding figures for the current year to date both amounted to €0.46.

Adjusted earnings per share improved

Earnings per share in accordance with IFRS are influenced by amounts relating to purchase price allocations for acquisitions (in particular International Rectifier) as well as by other exceptional items. To enable better comparability of operating performance over time, Infineon computes adjusted earnings per share (diluted) as follows:

Total equity 4,840 4,665 4%

Increase in current assets

Current assets increased by €208 million to stand at €4,323 million as of June 30, 2016, compared to €4,115 million as of September 30, 2015. Within these figures, Infineon's gross cash position (sum total of cash and cash equivalents and financial investments) increased by €70 million (see "Gross cash position and net cash position" in the "Review of liquidity" section). Inventories and other current assets also increased in total by €137 million.

Slight decrease in non-current assets

Non-current assets went down slightly from €4,626 million as of September 30, 2015 to €4,532 million as of June 30, 2016. Investments in property, plant and equipment during the nine-month period totaling €464 million were lower than the depreciation expense of €504 million. Investments related primarily to the manufacturing sites in Kulim and Malacca (both Malaysia), Regensburg (Germany) and Villach (Austria). Investments in intangible assets amounting to €85 million were also lower than the amortization expense of €126 million for the period.

Payments for variable salary components reduce current liabilities

Current liabilities stood at €1,466 million as of June 30, 2016 and were therefore €119 million or 8 percent lower than at September 30, 2015 (€1,585 million). The decrease was attributable to the €68 million reduction in provisions and liabilities to employees, brought about by the fact that bonus payments for prior-year performance-related remuneration exceeded the amount allocated to the provision during the nine-month period under report. In addition, other current liabilities decreased by €24 million.

Non-current liabilities increased slightly from €2,491 million as of September 30, 2015 to €2,549 million as of June 30, 2016. Liabilities for pension plans and similar commitments went up by €153 million, primarily as a result of actuarial losses. By contrast, deferred tax liabilities decreased by €100 million, mainly reflecting the reduction of deferred tax liabilities relating to the acquisition of International Rectifier and the reversal of allowances on deferred tax assets relating to German and foreign entities. The loan of US\$934 million, which Infineon had raised with various international banks in conjunction with the acquisition of International Rectifier, was fully repaid on April 13, 2016 out of proceeds from the issue of USPP notes.

Increase in equity primarily due to net income

Equity increased by €175 million (4 percent) to €4,840 million at the end of the reporting period (September 30, 2015: €4,665 million), mainly as a result of the net profit generated in the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year amounting to €518 million. Working in the opposite direction, equity was reduced during the reporting period primarily by the dividend of €225 million paid for the 2015 fiscal year and by actuarial losses amounting to €140 million (net of tax) – recognized in other comprehensive income – arising in conjunction with pension plans and similar commitments (see note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements).

The equity ratio improved to 54.7 percent as of the end of the reporting period (September 30, 2015: 53.4 percent).

Review of Liquidity

Cash Flow

Nine months ended June 30,
€ in millions 2016 2015
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations 866 528
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations (676) (2,143)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities from continuing operations (228) 1,364

Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents (8) 31
Change in cash and cash equivalents (63) (358)

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations up significantly

Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations in the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year amounted to €866 million, an improvement of €338 million on the €528 million reported for the corresponding period in the previous fiscal year. The main reason for the improvement was the €256 million increase in income from continuing operations before depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes totaling €1,164 million (October 2014 - June 2015: €908 million). In addition, the figure reported for the previous fiscal year includes a payment of €104 million to settle disputes relating to the continuation of the right to use Qimonda patents as well as a payment of €83 million to the EU Commission relating to a fine imposed in conjunction with chip card anti-trust proceedings.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations mainly reflects investments in property, plant and equipment

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations in the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year amounted to €676 million, resulting primarily from investments in property, plant and equipment (€464 million) and in intangible and other assets (€85 million). Net purchases of financial investments resulted in a cash outflow of €132 million.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations in the first nine months of the 2015 fiscal year had totaled €2,143 million, including €1,866 million (after deduction of cash acquired) for the acquisition of International Rectifier. Investments in property, plant and equipment and in intangible and other assets totaled €506 million. Net proceeds from sales of financial investments resulted in a cash inflow of €216 million.

Dividend payment results in net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations

Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations during the nine-month period resulted primarily from the payment of the dividend for the 2015 fiscal year amounting to €225 million. Overall, the net cash outflow for financing activities totaled €228 million. In April 2016, Infineon also successfully completed a US Private Placement (USPP) of notes with a volume of US\$935 million, which provided net proceeds amounting to €819 million. The US dollar loan of US\$934 million raised in conjunction with the acquisition of International Rectifier was subsequently repaid, resulting in a cash outflow of €820 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations in the first nine months of the 2015 fiscal year totaled €1,364 million, comprising mainly a net cash inflow of €1,584 million in conjunction with the financing of the acquisition of International Rectifier and a cash outflow for the dividend paid for the 2014 fiscal year amounting to €202 million.

Decrease in cash and cash equivalents from discontinued operations

Net cash used for discontinued operations during the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year totaled €17 million, mainly due to payments to the Qimonda insolvency administrator (€14 million) relating to settlement agreements reached for residual liability claims pertaining to Qimonda Dresden employees.

Net cash used for discontinued operations during the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year totaled €138 million, of which €125 million (net of value added tax) related to payments in conjunction with the partial settlement reached with the Qimonda insolvency administrator.

Free cash flow

Infineon reports the free cash flow figure, defined as net cash provided by and/or used in operating activities and net cash provided by and/or used in investing activities, both from continuing operations, after adjusting for cash flows related to the purchase and sale of financial investments. Free cash flow serves as an additional performance indicator, since Infineon holds part of its liquidity in the form of financial investments. This does not mean that the free cash flow calculated in this way is available to cover other disbursements, since dividend, debt-servicing obligations and other fixed disbursements are not deducted. Free cash flow should not be seen as a replacement or superior performance indicator, but rather as an additional useful item of information over and above the disclosure of the cash flow reported in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and as a supplementary disclosure to other liquidity performance indicators and other performance indicators derived from the IFRS figures. Free cash flow includes only amounts from continuing operations, and is derived as follows from the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows:

Nine months ended June 30,
€ in millions 2016 2015
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations 866 528
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations (676) (2,143)
Purchases of (proceeds from sales of) financial investments, net 132 (216)
Free cash flow 322 (1,831)

Net cash provided by operating activities exceeds investments

Free cash flow from continuing operations in the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year was a positive amount of €322 million.

The equivalent figure for the previous fiscal year was a negative amount of €1,831 million, which included €1,866 million (after deduction of cash acquired) relating to the acquisition of International Rectifier. The payments to the Qimonda insolvency administrator and the EU Commission had an overall negative impact of €208 million on free cash flow from continuing operations.

Gross cash position and net cash position

The following table reconciles the gross cash position and the net cash position (i.e. after deduction of debt). Since some liquid funds are held in the form of financial investments, which, for IFRS purposes, are not considered to be "cash and cash equivalents", Infineon reports on its gross and net cash positions in order to provide investors with a better understanding of its overall liquidity. The gross and net cash positions are determined as follows from the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position:

€ in millions June 30, 2016 September 30, 2015
Cash and cash equivalents 610 673
Financial investments 1,473 1,340
Gross cash position 2,083 2,013
Less:
Short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt 17 33
Long-term debt 1,767 1,760
Total debt 1,784 1,793
Net cash position 299 220

The gross cash position, comprising cash and cash equivalents and financial investments, amounted to €2,083 million at June 30, 2016 and was thus €70 million higher than the €2,013 million reported at September 30, 2015. Free cash flow of €322 million exceeded the dividend payment for the 2015 fiscal year amounting to €225 million.

The net cash position, which is defined as the gross cash position less short-term and long-term debt, increased by €79 million to €299 million at the end of the reporting period (September 30, 2015: €220 million).

Employees

The headcount of the Infineon workforce increased slightly during the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year. The following table shows the composition of the Infineon workforce by region at the relevant reporting dates:

Events after the end of the Reporting Period

Infineon plans acquisition of Wolfspeed for US\$850 million

On July 14, 2016 the Company and Cree Inc. USA ("Cree") signed a contract for the acquisition of Cree's Wolfspeed business. Infineon intends to buy Wolfspeed (including the related wafer substrate business) for a purchase price of US\$850 million.

Cree's Board of Directors and Infineon's Supervisory Board have already approved the acquisition. The approval of the responsible regulatory authorities is required to conclude the transaction. Completion and execution of the transaction is expected around the end of the 2016 calendar year (see note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements).

Outlook

Outlook for the fourth quarter of the 2016 fiscal year

In the fourth quarter of the 2016 fiscal year, Infineon expects quarter-on-quarter revenue growth of 3 percent (plus or minus 2 percentage points). This forecast is based on an assumed exchange rate of US\$1.10 to the euro. At the mid-point of the forecast revenue range, the Segment Result Margin is expected to come in at 17 percent.

Outlook for the 2016 fiscal year

Based on the outlook for the fourth quarter, revenue growth and Segment Result Margin for the full 2016 fiscal year are expected to end up within the range forecast in the preceding quarters.

Investments in property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and capitalized development costs are planned in the region of an unchanged €850 million for the 2016 fiscal year. Based on expected full-year revenue, the ratio for investments as a percentage of forecast revenue is expected to be approximately 13 percent. Depreciation and amortization are forecast to be in the region of €850 million.

Risks and Opportunities

Infineon's international structure and the broad range of its products offer a multitude of opportunities, whilst also exposing it to numerous risks. Coordinated risk management and control systems are in place to identify relevant risks and opportunities at an early stage and manage them to Infineon's advantage. Risk management at Infineon is embedded in the Group's planning systems, playing an important role in all entrepreneurial decisions and business processes. As such, it is a vital aspect of securing lasting success for the business.

Specific risks which could have a materially adverse effect on Infineon's financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations, specific opportunities and the concept behind Infineon's risk management system are described in the Group Management Report for the 2015 fiscal year (pages 149 to 160).

During the first nine months of the 2016 fiscal year, Infineon did not identify any material changes to the risks and opportunities described in the 2015 Annual Report and in note 11 to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the nine-month period to June 30, 2016.

Further risks – of which Infineon is not currently aware or which are not at present considered material – could also impair business activities in the future. At the date of this report, Infineon is not aware of any substantial risks which could jeopardize its going-concern status.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (unaudited)

1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of the Infineon Group ("Infineon") comprising Infineon Technologies AG (hereafter also "the Company") and its subsidiaries for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as adopted by the European Union (EU). The condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements have been prepared in compliance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting". Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Although the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position as of September 30, 2015 presented herein was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, not all related disclosures required by IFRS for these are included. The condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, as adopted by the EU, for the 2015 fiscal year.

The accounting policies applied preparing the accompanying condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those used for the consolidated financial statements for the 2015 fiscal year. An exemption to this principle is the application of new or revised standards and interpretations which are effective for fiscal years starting from January 1, 2015. The application of these new or revised standards does not have any material impact on Infineon`s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In the opinion of management, these condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements contain all necessary adjustments and present a true and fair view of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows. All adjustments recorded are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for any condensed interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

The preparation of the condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from management's estimates.

All amounts presented in the condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are shown in euro (€) unless stated otherwise. Negative amounts are presented in parentheses.

Deviations in amounts presented may occur due to rounding.

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Pension plans and similar commitments

IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" requires a mid-year adjustment to the valuation of pension plans and similar commitments if market conditions have changed unexpectedly and significantly. Financial market interest rate developments in the nine months ended June 30, 2016 have resulted in a significant reduction in the discount rates used in the valuation of defined benefit plans resulting in a considerable effect on the defined benefit obligation of the defined plans. The discount rate for domestic defined benefit plans decreased to 1.2 percent at June 30, 2016 (September 30, 2015: 2.4 percent). A counter effect arose from the increase in the fair value of plan assets so that the total adjustment to pension plan commitments as of June 30, 2016 amounted to €141 million which was recorded as an actuarial loss on pension plans and similar commitments in Other Comprehensive Income.

3 ACQUISITIONS

International Rectifier Corporation

The acquisition of 100 percent of the shares and associated voting rights of International Rectifier Corporation ("International Rectifier") based in El Segundo, California (USA) announced on August 20, 2014 was closed by Infineon on January 13, 2015.

The purchase price allocation for International Rectifier was finalized in January 2016; there were no adjustments in the 2016 fiscal year.

Wolfspeed

On July 14, 2016 the Company and Cree Inc. USA ("Cree") signed a contract for the acquisition of Cree's Wolfspeed business. Infineon intends to buy Wolfspeed (including the related wafer substrate business) for a purchase price of US\$850 million. With the acquisition Infineon broadens its strategic portfolio of compound semiconductors.

Cree's Board of Directors and Infineon's Supervisory Board have already approved the acquisition. The approval of the responsible regulatory authorities is required to conclude the transaction. Completion and execution of the transaction is expected around the end of the 2016 calendar year.

Infineon is financing the purchase with a bank loan of US\$720 million as well as cash on hand of US\$130 million.

4 DIVESTITURES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On January 23, 2009, Qimonda AG ("Qimonda"), a majority owned company, filed an application at the Munich Local Court to commence insolvency proceedings. On April 1, 2009, the insolvency proceedings opened. Insolvency proceedings were also opened for further domestic and foreign subsidiaries of Qimonda. Some of these insolvency proceedings have already been completed. The impacts of these proceedings are reported as discontinued operations in Infineon's Consolidated Statement of Operations and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, to the extent that the underlying events occurred before the commencement of insolvency proceedings. To the extent that the events occurred after the commencement of insolvency proceedings, their results are reported as part of continuing operations.

As a result of recent developments, adjustments to individual provisions in connection with the insolvency of Qimonda or other discontinued operations were required in the three and nine months to June 30, 2016 and 2015 which resulted in a gain after tax shown in the table below.

5 INCOME TAX

In comparison to the three and nine months to June 30, 2015, in the three and nine months to June 30, 2016 the effective tax rate was primarily affected by income from deferred tax from the write-up of domestic and foreign deferred tax assets, as well as the release of deferred tax liabilities arising in connection with the acquisition of International Rectifier.

Infineon successfully completed a US private placement of notes (USPP) with a nominal value of US\$935 million in April 2016. The senior, unsecured USPP notes, which bear average annual interest of 4.09 percent, consist of the following:

  • › Notes with a nominal value of US\$350 million due in 2024,
  • › Notes with a nominal value of US\$350 million due in 2026, and
  • › Notes with a nominal value of US\$235 million due in 2028.

The term loan in the amount of US\$934 million, which Infineon had raised from several international banks in connection with the acquisition of International Rectifier, was repaid in full out of the USPP proceeds on April 13, 2016.

7 EQUITY

The ordinary share capital of Infineon Technologies AG stood at €2,264,272,142 as of June 30, 2016 divided into 1,132,136,071 no par value registered shares, each representing €2 of the Company's ordinary share capital. As of September 30, 2015 the ordinary share capital stood at €2,258,542,962 divided into 1,129,271,481 no par value registered shares. 2,864,590 new shares were issued in the first nine month of the 2016 fiscal year (thereof 786,201 in the third quarter) as a result of the exercise of stock options by employees as well as current and past members of the Management Board.

At the Annual General Meeting on February 18, 2016, it was resolved that a dividend of €0.20 be paid for each eligible share out of the unappropriated profit of Infineon Technologies AG for the 2015 fiscal year. Taking into account the nonentitlement to a dividend of own shares as well as new shares issued following the exercise of stock options by employees as well as by current and past members of the Management Board, this resulted in a distribution of €225 million.

8 CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Infineon's main capital management objective is to ensure financial flexibility on the basis of a solid capital structure. As with comparable companies in the semiconductor industry, it is of prime importance that sufficient cash funds are available to finance operating activities and planned investments throughout all phases of the business cycle. On the other hand, debt should only constitute a modest portion of the financing mix. Based on these principles Infineon has defined key objectives for capital management. These capital structure targets were adjusted in February 2016 to reflect the strong revenue growth and the positive development of Infineon's profitability.

Infineon plans to maintain a liquidity level (gross cash position) of at least €1 billion and additionally 10 to 20 percent of revenue. The previous target range for the gross cash position amounted to 30 to 40 percent of revenue. The upper limit for gross debt of no more than two times EBITDA continues to apply. The balance of these two capital structure targets is no longer subject to its own target (previously: positive net cash position).

Infineon is not subject to any statutory capital requirements, nor are such defined in the Articles of Association.

In February 2016, for the first time, Infineon was assigned a long-term credit rating (BBB with stable outlook) by the international rating agency Standard & Poor's (S&P). The solid investment grade rating reflects among other things Infineon's adjusted capital structure targets.

9 TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED COMPANIES AND PERSONS

Infineon has transactions in the normal course of business with associated and other related companies (collectively, "related companies"). Related persons are persons in key management positions, in particular members of the Management and Supervisory Board and their close relatives (collectively, "related persons").

Infineon purchases certain raw materials and services from, and sells certain products and services to related companies. These purchases from and sales to related companies are generally effected at arm's length.

Related companies receivables and payables consist exclusively of trade and other receivables and payables from and to associated and other related companies.

80,964 (virtual) performance shares each with a fair value of €7.07 were allocated to the Management Board on October 1, 2015.

With the agreement of the Supervisory Board, Arjun Mittal resigned from his position as member of the Management Board of Infineon Technologies AG as of June 30, 2016 for family reasons. A provision of less than €1 million was recorded at June 30, 2016, in particular with respect to benefits Mr. Mittal is entitled to under his contract of employment which expires on September 30, 2016.

Furthermore, in the three and nine months to June 30, 2016 and 2015 there were no transactions between Infineon and related persons which fall outside the scope of the existing employment, service or appointment terms, or of the contractual arrangements for their remuneration.

10 ADDITIONAL DISCLOSURES ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial instruments measured at fair value are allocated to the following measurement levels in accordance with IFRS 13. The allocation to the different levels is based on the market proximity of the valuation parameters used in the determination of the fair value:

  • › Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities,
  • › Level 2: valuation parameters whose prices are not the ones considered in Level 1, but which can be observed either directly or indirectly for the assets or liabilities,
  • › Level 3: valuation parameters for assets and liabilities which are not based on observable market data.

The following table shows the allocation of financial instruments measured at fair value to each measurement level as of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015:

€ in millions Fair Value Fair value by category
June 30, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3
Current assets:
Financial investments 451 391 60 -
Other current assets 9 - 9 -
Non-current assets:
Other non-current assets 32 18 - 14
Total 492 409 69 14
Current liabilities:
Other current liabilities 3 - 3 -

Other non-current assets 32 19 - 13
Total 217 141 63 13
Current liabilities:
Other current liabilities 9 - 9 -
Total 9 - 9 -

For the securities included in financial investments no active market exists. The fair values are calculated as the present value of future expected cash flows, taking into account valuation parameters which can be observed in the market (Level 2).

Other current assets or liabilities include derivative financial instruments (including cash flow hedges). Their fair value is determined according to the discounted cash flow method. Where possible valuation parameters are based on market data (such as currency rates or commodity prices) observable on the reporting date and taken from reliable external sources (Level 2).

Other non-current assets include financial investments. Insofar as the holdings are traded on an active market, the fair value is determined based on the actual quoted price (Level 1). For financial investments which are not quoted on an active market, the fair value is determined by considering existing contractual arrangements based on the externally observable dividend policy (Level 3).

In addition, other non-current assets include an option to sell shares in an equity holding for a fixed price. The option is recognized as a derivative financial instrument and is not designated as a hedging instrument. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model (Level 3).

No reclassification within the fair value hierarchy was carried out.

The allocation to classes of financial instruments, the valuation methods, and major assumptions are unchanged compared to September 30, 2015 and are described in detail in the notes to the 2015 consolidated financial statements in note 2. A detailed overview of Infineon's financial instruments, the financial risk factors, and the management of financial risks is included in the notes to the 2015 consolidated financial statements in notes 30 and 31.

11 LEGAL RISKS

Litigation and government inquiries

Smartcard antitrust litigation

In October 2008 the EU Commission initiated an investigation into the Company and other manufacturers of chips for smartcards for alleged violations of antitrust laws. On September 3, 2014 the EU Commission imposed a fine of €83 million on Infineon which was paid in October 2014. Infineon rejects the allegations as unfounded. Moreover Infineon believes its procedural rights to have been violated by the EU Commission and brought an action against the decision to fine before the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg in mid-November 2014. An oral hearing took place on April 28, 2016.

Two class actions for damages in connection with the EU Commission investigative proceedings have been filed in Canada: the first action was filed in the state of British Columbia in July 2013, and the second in the state of Quebec in September 2014. The actions followed the press reports on the investigation and subsequent decision of the EU Commission. No dates have been set for court proceedings.

In December 2014 an indirect customer filed a lawsuit against Infineon and Renesas in London (Great Britain) which was served upon the Company on April 20, 2015. In this lawsuit the plaintiff claims for damages in an amount still to be determined in connection with the allegations of the EU Commission.

Any further statements about these matters by the Company could therefore seriously compromise the Company's position in these proceedings.

Proceedings in relation to Qimonda

All significant assets, liabilities and business activities attributable to the memory business (Memory Products) were carved out from Infineon and transferred to Qimonda in the form of a non-cash contribution with economic effect from May 1, 2006. Qimonda filed an application at the Munich Local Court to commence insolvency proceedings on January 23, 2009. On April 1, 2009, the insolvency proceedings formally opened. The insolvency of Qimonda has given rise to various disputes between the insolvency administrator and Infineon.

On September 11, 2014 the Company and the insolvency administrator reached a partial settlement including the acquisition by Infineon of Qimonda's patent business which was closed on 9 October, 2014. On the closing day the Company paid €260 million to the insolvency administrator. With the partial settlement all claims made by the insolvency administrator have been settled, apart from those relating to the proceedings in connection with the alleged activation of a shell company and liability for impairment of capital as well as the residual liability of Qimonda Dresden.

Alleged activation of a shell company and liability for impairment of capital

The insolvency administrator filed a request for declaratory judgment in an unspecified amount against Infineon Technologies AG and, by way of third party notice, Infineon Technologies Holding B.V. and Infineon Technologies Investment B.V., at Regional Court Munich I in November 2010. This requested that Infineon be deemed liable to make good the deficit balance of Qimonda as it stood when the insolvency proceedings in respect of the assets of Qimonda began, i.e., to refund to Qimonda the difference between the latter's actual business assets when the insolvency proceedings began and its share capital (in German: "Unterbilanzhaftung"). The insolvency administrator contended that the commencement of operating activities by Qimonda amounted to what is considered in case law to be the activation of a shell company (in German: "Wirtschaftliche Neugründung"), and that this activation of a shell company was not disclosed in the correct manner. On March 6, 2012, with respect to another matter, the German Federal High Court issued a ruling on principle that any liability resulting from the activation of a shell company only depends on the situation at the date of the activation of a shell company and not, as asserted by the insolvency administrator, on the situation at the date on which insolvency proceedings are opened.

In addition to the request for declaratory judgment against Infineon in an unspecified amount, on February 14, 2012 the insolvency administrator also lodged a request for payment based on an alternative claim (in German: "Hilfsantrag"), as well as making other additional claims. In conjunction with this alternative claim, the insolvency administrator has requested the payment of at least €1.71 billion plus interest in connection with the alleged activation of a shell company. On June 15, 2012 the insolvency administrator increased his request for payment of February 14, 2012 on the grounds of activation of a shell company to at least approximately €3.35 billion plus interest. Furthermore, the insolvency administrator continues to base a substantial part of his alleged payment claims, as already asserted out of court against Infineon in August 2011 for an unspecified amount, on so-called liability for impairment of capital (in German "Differenzhaftung"). This claim is based on the allegation that, from the very beginning, the carved-out memory products business had a negative billion euro value. The insolvency administrator therefore asserts that Infineon is obliged to make good the difference between this negative value and the lowest issue price (in German: "geringster Ausgabebetrag") of the subscribed stock. Additionally the insolvency administrator has asserted a claim for repayment of allegedly unjustly charged consultancy fees in an amount of €10 million in connection with the flotation of Qimonda.

The alleged impairment of capital runs contrary to two valuations prepared as part of the preparatory documentation for the capital increase by independent auditing companies, one of which had been engaged by Infineon and the other of which was acting in the capacity of a court-appointed auditor of non-cash contributions and post-formation acquisitions. The auditing company engaged by Infineon concluded in its valuation that the business area contributed had a value of several times the lowest issue price of the shares issued, while the court-appointed auditor of non-cash contributions and post-formation acquisitions confirmed to the court that the lowest issue price of the shares issued was covered – as legally required – by the value of the non-cash contributions. Additionally, in the course of its defense against the claims asserted by the insolvency administrator, Infineon has commissioned several expert opinions all of which arrive at the same conclusion, that the objections raised by the insolvency administrator against the valuation of the non-cash contribution are not valid.

The legal dispute has, in the meantime, focused on the claims asserted for alleged lack of value. On August 29, 2013 the court appointed an independent expert to clarify the valuation issues raised by the insolvency administrator and to address technical matters.

The legal dispute is being pursued with great effort by both parties, and many extensive written submissions have already been exchanged between the parties. Both sides have engaged numerous specialists and experts who are supporting the respective parties with assessments and opinions.

Due to the highly complex nature of the issues to be decided and the level of the claims asserted, it is not clear at this stage if this legal dispute can be resolved with an out of court settlement, and, if this is not the case, when a first-instance court decision would be reached.

Residual liability of Infineon as former shareholder of Qimonda Dresden GmbH & Co. OHG

Infineon was a shareholder with personal liability of Qimonda Dresden until the carve-out of the memory business; as a result certain long-standing creditors have residual liability claims against Infineon. These claims can only be exercised by the insolvency administrator acting in the name of the creditors concerned. In the meantime settlements have been concluded with most of the major liability creditors.

Liabilities, provisions and contingent liabilities relating to Qimonda

Infineon recognizes provisions and liabilities for such obligations and risks which it assesses at the end of each reporting period are more likely than not to be incurred (that is where, from Infineon's perspective at the end of each reporting period, the probability of having to settle an obligation or risk is greater than the probability of not having to) and the obligation or risk can be estimated with reasonable accuracy at this time.

As described above, Infineon faces certain risks in connection with the insolvency proceedings relating to the assets of Qimonda and that entity's subsidiaries. As a result, Infineon recorded provisions and liabilities in connection with some of the above mentioned matters totaling €32 million and €55 million as of June 30, 2016 and September 30, 2015, respectively. Of the provisions and liabilities recorded as of June 30, 2016, €15 million has been provided in connection with the residual liability as former shareholder of Qimonda Dresden. For the defense of the proceedings still pending for the alleged activation of a shell company and liability for impairment of capital, the Company has recorded a provision of €15 million as of June 30, 2016. Remaining provisions in connection with the Qimonda insolvency total €2 million as of June 30, 2016.

There can be no certainty that the provisions recorded for Qimonda will be sufficient to cover all of the liabilities that could ultimately be incurred in relation to the insolvency of Qimonda and, in particular, the matters discussed above. In addition, it is possible that liabilities and risks materialize that are currently considered to be unlikely to do so, and accordingly represent contingent liabilities that are not included in provisions. This applies in particular to the legal dispute for alleged activation of a shell company and liability for impairment of capital described above. Should the alleged claims prove to be valid, substantial financial obligations could arise for Infineon which could have a material adverse effect on its business and its financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations. Any further statements about these matters by the Company could seriously compromise the Company's position in these proceedings.

Other

Infineon is also involved in various other legal disputes and proceedings in connection with its existing or previous business activities. These can relate to products, services, patents, environmental issues and other matters.

Based on its current knowledge, Infineon does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these other pending legal disputes and proceedings will have a material adverse effect on Infineon's financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations. However future revisions to this assessment cannot be ruled out and any reassessment of the miscellaneous legal disputes and proceedings could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations, particularly in the period in which reassessment is made.

Furthermore, in connection with its existing or previous business operations, Infineon is also exposed to numerous legal risks which have until now not resulted in legal disputes. These include risks related to product liability, environment, capital market, anti-corruption, competition and antitrust legislation as well as other compliance regulations. Claims could also be made against Infineon in connection with these matters in the event of breaches of law committed by individual employees or third parties.

Provisions and contingent liabilities for legal proceedings and other uncertain legal issues

Provisions relating to legal proceedings and other uncertain legal issues are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the associated amount can be reasonably estimated. To the extent that liabilities arising from legal disputes and other uncertain legal positions are not probable or cannot be reliably estimated, then they qualify as contingent liabilities.

Any potential liability is reviewed again as soon as additional information becomes available and the estimates are revised if necessary. Provisions with respect to these matters are subject to future developments or changes in circumstances in each of the matters, which could have a material adverse effect on Infineon's financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations.

A settlement or adverse judicial decision in any of the matters described above could result in significant financial liabilities for Infineon and other adverse effects, and these in turn could have a material adverse effect on its business and financial condition, liquidity position and results of operations. Irrespective of the validity of the allegations and the success of the aforementioned claims and other matters described above, Infineon could incur significant costs in the defense of these matters.

Review Report

To the Supervisory Board of Infineon Technologies AG, Neubiberg

We have reviewed the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Infineon Technologies AG, Neubiberg – comprising statement of operations, statement of comprehensive income, statement of financial position, statement of cash flows, statement of changes in equity and selected explanatory notes - together with the interim group management report of the Infineon Technologies AG, Neubiberg, for the period from October 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016 that are part of the quarterly financial report according to § 37 w WpHG ["Wertpapierhandelsgesetz": "German Securities Trading Act"]. The preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with those IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the European Union (EU), and of the interim group management report in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports, is the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and on the interim group management report based on our review.

We performed our review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and the interim group management report in accordance with the German generally accepted standards for the review of financial statements promulgated by the Institut der Wirtschaftsprüfer (IDW). Those standards require that we plan and perform the review so that we can preclude through critical evaluation, with a certain level of assurance, that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements have not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the IFRS applicable to interim financial reporting as adopted by the EU, and that the interim group management report has not been prepared, in material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the WpHG applicable to interim group management reports. A review is limited primarily to inquiries of company employees and analytical assessments and therefore does not provide the assurance attainable in a financial statement audit. Since, in accordance with our engagement, we have not performed a financial statement audit, we cannot issue an auditor's report.
