NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE A – Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Nature of Operations

     Diodes Incorporated and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of high-quality, application specific standard products within the broad discrete, logic and analog semiconductor markets, serving the consumer electronics, computing, communications, industrial and automotive markets. These products include diodes, rectifiers, transistors, MOSFETs, protection devices, functional specific arrays, single gate logic, amplifiers and comparators, Hall-effect and temperature sensors, power management devices including LED drivers, DC-DC switching and linear voltage regulators and voltage references along with special function devices including USB power switches, load switches, voltage supervisors and motor controllers. These products are sold primarily throughout Asia, North America and Europe.

Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the period presented have been included in the interim period. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. The consolidated condensed financial data at December 31, 2009 is derived from audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. As permitted under U.S. GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year forecasts. Such amounts are expensed in full in the year incurred. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual effective income tax rates.

     Certain prior year’s balances have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

     In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-13, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. ASU No. 2010-13 clarifies that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity shares trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The provisions of ASU No. 2010-13 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

     In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition — Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition (A consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). ASU No. 2010-17 provides guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. The amendments provide guidance on the criteria that should be met for determining whether the milestone method of revenue recognition is appropriate. An entity can recognize consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a milestone in its entirety as revenue in the period in which the milestone was achieved only if the milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive. The provisions of ASU No. 2010-17 are effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE B – Functional Currencies, Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

     Functional Currencies and Foreign Currency Translation – The functional currency for most of the Company’s international operations is the U.S. dollar, while some subsidiaries use their local currency as their functional currency. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are recorded as other income (expense) in the consolidated condensed statements of operations. The Company had foreign exchange transaction losses of approximately $1.3 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and approximately $0.5 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

     Comprehensive Income (Loss) – U.S. GAAP generally requires that recognized revenues, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities are reported as separate components of the equity section of the balance sheet, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income or loss. As of June 30, 2010, the components of other comprehensive income or loss include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gain or loss on defined benefit plan.

     Total comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 is as follows (in thousands):.

Total Comprehensive Income (Loss)

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,

Comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interest			903				584				1,625				688
Total comprehensive income (loss) attributable to common stockholders		$	10,637			$	(4,501	)		$	14,822			$	(23,365	)

NOTE C – Earnings (Loss) Per Share

     Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and stock awards, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.

     The computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended
		June 30,								June 30,
		2010				2009				2010				2009
BASIC
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in computing basic earnings (loss) per share			43,975				41,587				43,871				41,368
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders		$	16,647			$	(2,953	)		$	31,605			$	(13,719	)
Earnings (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders		$	0.38			$	(0.07	)		$	0.72			$	(0.33	)
DILUTED
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding used in computing basic earnings (loss) per share			43,975				41,587				43,871				41,368
Add: Assumed exercise of stock options and stock awards			1,535				—				1,487				—
			45,510				41,587				45,358				41,368
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders		$	16,647			$	(2,953	)		$	31,605			$	(13,719	)
Earnings (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders		$	0.37			$	(0.07	)		$	0.70			$	(0.33	)

     There are no shares included in the earnings per share calculation related to the Company’s 2.25% convertible senior notes (“Notes”) outstanding as our average stock price did not exceed the conversion price and, therefore, there is no conversion spread.

NOTE D – Short-Term Investments

     On June 30, 2010, the Company put back its auction rate securities (“ARS”) portfolio to UBS AG at par value pursuant to the previously disclosed settlement agreement with UBS AG. Upon exercise of the put option, the Company liquidated its ARS, for cash and used the proceeds to fully repay the related “no net cost” loan with UBS Bank.

NOTE E – Inventories

     Inventories stated at the lower of cost or market value are as follows (in thousands):

		June 30,				December 31,
		2010				2009
Raw materials		$	41,593			$	33,280

Total		$	101,768			$	89,652

NOTE F – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

     Changes in goodwill are as follows (in thousands):

Balance at December 31, 2009		$	68,075
Foreign currency exchange and other			(2,890	)
Balance at June 30, 2010		$	65,185

     Intangible assets are as follows (in thousands):

Balance at June 30, 2010:
Intangible assets subject to amortization:
Gross carrying amount		$	48,649
Accumulated amortization			(12,458	)
Foreign currency exchange and other			(7,856	)
Net value			28,335
Intangible assets with indefinite lives:
Gross carrying amount			3,162
Foreign currency exchange and other			(768	)
Total			2,394
Total intangible assets, net		$	30,729

     Amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, and $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

NOTE G – Income Tax Provision

     Income tax expense of $3.0 million and $6.4 million was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 16.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to (74.3)% for the same period of last year and compared to 11.7% for the full year of 2009. The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35%, as it was impacted by higher income in lower-taxed jurisdictions and the noncash tax benefit from reversing valuation allowances on deferred tax assets from U.K. loss carryforwards. In addition, the Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was impacted by the non-cash income tax expense associated with repatriating earnings of foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. parent.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company reported domestic and foreign pre-tax income (loss) of approximately $(11.9) million and $51.5 million, respectively. For the six month ended June 30, 2009, the Company reported domestic and foreign pre-tax income (loss) of approximately $(21.6) million and $14.1 million, respectively.

     The impact of tax holidays decreased the Company’s tax expense by approximately $2.6 million and $3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively. The benefit of the tax holidays on basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $0.08 and $0.07, respectively. The benefit of the tax holidays on both basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $0.06.

     Funds repatriated from foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. may be subject to federal and state income taxes. In the first quarter of 2009, the Company repatriated approximately $28.5 million of accumulated earnings from one of its Chinese subsidiaries, resulting in additional non-cash federal and state income tax expense of approximately $5.3 million. The Company intends to permanently reinvest overseas all of its earnings from its foreign subsidiaries.

     In addition, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that a portion of its federal foreign tax credit carryforwards and net operating loss carryforwards would expire before they could be utilized. Accordingly, the Company has recorded valuation allowances of $11.9 million and $11.3 million as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

     The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2007. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties, if any, have been provided for in the Company’s reserves for any adjustments that may result from future tax audits. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2010, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $8.5 million.

     It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefit with respect to certain of the Company’s unrecognized tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. These changes may be the result of settlement of ongoing audits or competent authority proceedings. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible outcomes cannot be determined.

NOTE H – Share-Based Compensation

     The following table shows the total compensation expensed for share-based compensation plans, including stock options and share grants, recognized in the statements of operations (in thousands):

NOTE J – Convertible Senior Notes

     In October 2006, the Company issued and sold Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $230 million due 2026, which pay 2.25% interest per annum on the principal amount of the Notes, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2007.

     The Notes can be converted into cash or, at the Company’s option, cash and/or shares of the Company’s Common Stock based on an initial conversion rate, subject to adjustment, of 25.6419 shares (stock split adjusted) per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of $39.00 per share (stock split adjusted), in certain circumstances. In addition, following a “make-whole fundamental change” that occurs prior to October 1, 2011, the Company will, at its option, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its Notes in connection with such “make-whole fundamental change,” in certain circumstances.

     In determining the liability and equity components, the Company determined the expected life of the Notes to be five years as that is the earliest date in which the Notes can be put back to the Company at par value. As of June 30, 2010, 15 months remain over which the discount of the liability will be amortized. As of June 30, 2010, the liability and equity components are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE K – Commitments

     Purchase Commitments – As of June 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $22.2 million in non-cancelable purchase contracts related to capital expenditures, primarily for manufacturing equipment in China.

NOTE L – Employee Benefit Plans

Defined Benefit Plan

     The Company has a contributory defined benefit plan that covers certain employees in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) and Germany. The net pension and supplemental retirement benefit obligations and the related periodic costs are based on, among other things, assumptions regarding the discount rate, estimated return on plan assets and mortality rates. These obligations and related periodic costs are measured using actuarial techniques and assumptions. The projected unit credit method is the actuarial cost method used to compute the pension liabilities and related expenses.

     For the six months ended June 30, 2010, net period benefit costs associated with the defined benefit plan were approximately $1.5 million.

     The following tables set forth the benefit obligation, the fair value of plan assets, and the funded status of the Company’s plan (in thousands):

		Defined Benefit Plan
Change in benefit obligation:
Balance at December 31, 2009		$	117,539
Service cost			153
Interest cost			3,148
Actuarial loss			3,850
Benefits paid			(1,842	)
Foreign currency changes			(8,768	)
Benefit obligation at June 30, 2010		$	114,080
Change in plan assets:
Fair value of plan assets at December 31, 2009		$	88,235
Actual return on plan assets			(737	)
Employer contribution			1,453
Benefits paid			(1,842	)
Foreign currency changes			(6,470	)
Fair value of plan assets at June 30, 2010		$	80,639
Underfunded status at June 30, 2010		$	(33,441	)

     Based on an actuarial study performed as of June 30, 2010, the plan is underfunded and a liability of approximately $33.4 million is reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as a long-term liability. The amount recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was a net loss of $5.9 million and the weighted-average discount rate assumption used to determine benefit obligations as of June 30, 2010 was 5.3%.

     The following are weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit costs for the six months ended June 30, 2010:

Discount rate			5.7	%
Expected long-term return on plan assets			6.8	%

     The Company adopted a payment plan with the trustees of the defined benefit plan, in which the Company will pay approximately £1.0 million GBP (approximately $1.6 million based on a USD:GBP exchange rate of 1.6:1) every year from 2009 through 2012.

     The Company also has pension plans in Asia for which the benefit obligation, fair value of the plan assets and the funded status amounts are deemed immaterial and therefore, not included in the figures or assumptions above.

Deferred Compensation

     The Company maintains a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) for executive officers, key employees and members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”). The Deferred Compensation Plan allows eligible participants to defer the receipt of eligible compensation, including equity awards, until designated future dates. The Company offsets its obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan by investing in the actual underlying investments. These investments are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value. At June 30, 2010, these investments totaled approximately $2.9 million. All gains and losses in these investments are equally offset by corresponding gains and losses in the Deferred Compensation Plan liabilities.

NOTE M – Related Parties

     The Company conducts business with one related party company, Lite-On Semiconductor Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “LSC”), that owned approximately 18.9% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of June 30, 2010. The Company also conducts business with Keylink International (B.V.I.) Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Keylink”). Keylink is the Company’s 5% joint venture partner in the Company’s Shanghai manufacturing subsidiaries.

Overview

     We are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of high-quality, application specific standard products within the broad discrete, logic and analog semiconductor markets, serving the consumer electronics, computing, communications, industrial and automotive markets. These products include diodes, rectifiers, transistors, MOSFETs, protection devices, functional specific arrays, single gate logic, amplifiers and comparators, Hall-effect and temperature sensors, power management devices including LED drivers, DC-DC switching and linear voltage regulators and voltage references along with special function devices including USB power switches, load switches, voltage supervisors and motor controllers. The products are sold primarily throughout Asia, North America and Europe.

     We design, manufacture and market these semiconductors for diverse end-use applications. Semiconductors, which provide electronic signal amplification and switching functions, are basic building-block electronic components that are incorporated into almost every electronic device. We believe that our focus on standard semiconductor products provides us with a meaningful competitive advantage relative to other semiconductor companies that provide a wider range of semiconductor products.

     During the first quarter of 2010, we saw an increase in our net sales due to strong demand in all geographic regions led by North America and Europe. During the second quarter of 2010, we saw a further increase in net sales due to a strong demand for our products across all markets with additional growth in North America and Asia, while we continued to experience improvements in Europe. In addition, during the first and second quarters, gross profit margin increased due to improved product mix in North America and Europe, which includes a favorable mix of higher margin new products, as well as our wafer fabrication facilities operating at near full capacity. For the third quarter of 2010, we expect to see continued growth in net sales and gross profit.

     As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, the principal elements of our strategy include the following:

	•		Continue to rapidly introduce innovative discrete, logic and analog semiconductor products;
	•		Expand our available market opportunities;
	•		Maintain intense customer focus;
	•		Enhance cost competitiveness; and
	•		Pursue selective strategic acquisitions.

     In implementing these strategies, the following factors have affected, and, we believe, will continue to affect, our results of operations:

•

We have experienced substantial pressure from our customers and competitors to reduce the selling price for our standard products, and we expect future improvements in net income to result primarily from increases in sales volume and improvements in product mix as well as manufacturing cost reductions in order to offset any reduced average selling prices (“ASP”) of our products. For 2010, we expect to see increased demand for our products as compared to 2009, and we anticipate continued improvement in order rates.

•

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, our original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) and electronic manufacturing services (“EMS”) customers together accounted for approximately 48% of our net sales, while our global network of distributors accounted for approximately 52% of our net sales.

•

Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $286.0 million compared to $181.9 million in the same period last year. This increase in net sales mainly reflects the increase in demand for our products in all geographic regions.

•

Our gross profit margin was 35.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to 23.0% in the same period last year. Our gross margin percentage increased over the same period last year due to higher capacity utilization of our manufacturing and wafer fabrication facilities. Future gross profit margins will depend primarily on our product mix, manufacturing cost savings, and the demand for our products.

•

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, our capital expenditures were approximately 16.5% of our net sales, which is an increase from our historical 10% to 12% of net sales model. We expect capital expenditures for fiscal 2010 to be slightly higher than our historical model.

•

For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the percentage of our net sales derived from our Asia subsidiaries was 73.2%, compared to 76.0% in the same period last year. The decrease was due primarily to improvements in North America and Europe. We expect our net sales to the Asia market to increase as a percentage of our total net sales as a result of our customers’ continuing to shift their manufacturing of electronic products to Asia. In addition, Europe accounted for approximately 11.3% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2010, compared to 9.4% in the same period last year.

•

As of June 30, 2010, we had invested approximately $255.1 million in our Asian manufacturing facilities. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we invested approximately $41.4 million in these manufacturing facilities, and we expect to continue to invest in our manufacturing facilities, although the amount to be invested will depend on product demand and new product developments.

•

We have increased our investment in research and development from $10.7 million, or 5.9% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $13.2 million, or 4.6% of net sales, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. For the remainder of 2010, we expect research and development to increase in absolute dollars but remain comparable as a percentage of net sales.

     The following discussion explains in greater detail our consolidated operating results and financial condition for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2009. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report (in thousands).

		2010			2009
Net Sales		$	149,153			$	103,898

     Net sales increased approximately $45.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to the same period last year. The 43.6% increase in net sales represented an approximately 38.9% increase in units sold and a 3.4% increase in ASP. The revenue increase for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was attributable to increase in demand for our products in all markets with further growth in North America and Asia, while we continued to experience improvements in Europe.

		2010				2009
Cost of goods sold		$	95,686			$	76,528
Gross profit		$	53,467			$	27,370
Gross profit margin			35.8	%			26.3	%

     Cost of goods sold increased approximately $19.2 million, or 25.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period last year. As a percent of sales, cost of goods sold decreased to 64.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to 73.7% in the same period last year, and our average unit cost (“AUP”) decreased approximately 10.0% due primarily to product mix. The decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales was due to higher net sales, which offset a portion of the fixed costs.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2010, gross profit increased by approximately $26.1 million, or 95.3%, compared to the same period last year. Gross margin increased to 35.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to 26.3% for the same period last year, primarily due to higher capacity utilization of our manufacturing and wafer fabrication facilities

		2010				2009
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”)		$	21,422			$	15,240

     SG&A for the three months ended June 30, 2010 increased approximately $6.2 million, or 40.6%, compared to the same period last year, primarily due to higher sales commissions related to increased sales, as well as to higher employee related costs including incentives and higher general operating costs. SG&A as a percentage of sales, decreased to 14.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared to 14.7% in the same period last year due to higher net sales, which offset a portion of the fixed costs. For the remainder of 2010, we expect SG&A to increase in absolute dollars but remain comparable as a percentage of net sales.

		2010				2009
Research and development expenses (“R&D”)		$	6,815			$	5,385

     R&D for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $6.8 million, an increase of approximately $1.4 million from the same period last year, primarily due to the additional costs incurred, primarily due to increased personnel costs, engineering supplies and material purchases. R&D, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 4.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2010, compared 5.2% in the same period last year due to higher net sales, which offset a portion of the fixed costs. For the remainder of 2010, we expect R&D to increase in absolute dollars but remain comparable as a percentage of net sales.

		2010				2009
Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles		$	1,078			$	1,118

     Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles was approximately $1.1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2010 and the same period last year.

		2010				2009
Interest income		$	996			$	1,345

     Interest income decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $1.0 million, compared to $1.3 million in the same period last year, due primarily to a decrease in interest income earned on our short-term investment securities (auction rate securities), which were put back to UBS at par value on June 30, 2010 in accordance with the previously disclosed settlement agreement. For the remainder of 2010, we expect interest income to be lower than in the first half of 2010 since we are no longer earning interest on short-term investment securities.

		2010				2009
Interest expense		$	1,396			$	1,877

     Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was approximately $1.4 million, compared to $1.9 million in the same period last year. The $0.5 million decrease in interest expense was due primarily to the repurchase and retirement of $95.7 million par value of Notes since the fourth quarter of 2008, which was offset by the increased interest expense charged in connection with our “no net cost” loan, with the offsetting interest earned being recorded in interest income. For the remainder of 2010, we expect interest expense to be lower than in the first half of 2010 since we are no longer being charged interest for our “no net cost” loan that was paid off on June 30, 2010 in connection with the previously disclosed settlement agreement with UBS.

		2010				2009
Amortization of debt discount		$	1,873			$	2,281

     Amortization of debt discount for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.9 million, compared to $2.3 million in the same period last year. The $0.4 million decrease in amortization of debt discount was due primarily to the repurchase and retirement of Notes in 2009.

		2010				2009
Other expense		$	1,150			$	275

     Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $1.2 million, compared to $0.3 million in the same period last year. Included in other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was a $1.5 million gain on forgiveness of debt from government subsidies in China.
