Consequently, determining future trends and estimates of activity can be difficult. On March 9, 2007, Solectron launched the Cisco Systems Lean Initiative. This initiative required us to purchase PCBA boards that were previously sold to Cisco Systems. As a result, the Company had a net reduction of revenue of $240.7 million and an increase to inventories of $260.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2007. In addition, during the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company purchased $74.4 million of inventory from third party suppliers in connection with the initiative. Under the Cisco Systems Lean Initiative, Solectron is required to complete the building of systems and boxes. Systems and boxes require PCBA boards and third party built parts. ...
