Employees
At December 31, 2013, we employed approximately 940 people worldwide, with approximately 370 employed in the
United States and approximately 570 employed internationally.
Environmental Matters
Our operations are subject to a wide range of federal, state and local environmental laws. Environmental remediation
costs are accrued when a probable liability has been determined and the amount of such liability has been reasonably
estimated. These accruals are reviewed periodically as remediation and investigatory activities proceed and are adjusted
accordingly. Compliance with environmental regulations has not had a material adverse effect on our financial results. As of
December 31, 2013, we had environmental-related accruals totaling $0.2 million and we have minor remedial activities
underway at one of our prior manufacturing facilities. We believe that our accruals are adequate, though there can be no
assurance that the amount of expense relating to remedial actions and compliance with applicable environmental laws will not
materially exceed the amounts reflected in our accruals.
International Operations
Approximately 59 percent of our total 2013 revenue came from sales outside the United States, primarily through
subsidiaries, sales offices, distributors, VARs and relationships with OEMs throughout Europe, Asia, Latin America and
Canada. We do not own any manufacturing facilities. See Note 14 — Business Segment Information and Geographic Data in
our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on our international operations.
As discussed under Risk Factors in Item 1A of this Form 10-K, our international operations are subject to various risks
and uncertainties that are not present in our domestic operations.
