On April 24, 2008, Lattice will hold a telephone conference call at 2:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) with financial analysts. Investors may listen to our conference call live via the web at www.lscc.com. Replays of the call will also be available at www.lscc.com. On June 12, 2008, we plan to publish a "Business Update Statement" on our website. Our financial guidance will be limited to the comments on our public quarterly earnings call and these public business outlook statements.
Forward-Looking Statements Notice:
The foregoing paragraphs contain forward-looking statements that involve estimates, assumptions, risks and uncertainties. With respect to particular forward-looking statements in the "Business Outlook - June 2008 Quarter" section of this release, Lattice believes the factors identified below in connection with each such statement could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.
Estimates of future revenue are inherently uncertain due to the high percentage of quarterly "turns" business. In addition, revenue is affected by such factors as pricing pressures, competitive actions, the demand for our Mature, Mainstream, and New products, and the ability to supply products to customers in a timely manner. Actual gross margin percentage and operating expenses could vary from the estimates contained herein on the basis of, among other things, changes in revenue levels, changes in product pricing and mix, changes in wafer, assembly and test costs, variations in manufacturing yields, and changes in stock-based compensation charges due to stock price changes. Restructuring charges are estimates that are subject to change. Other income may vary due to changes in investment returns. Assets held for investment purposes are subject to credit risk and may become impaired on an other than temporary basis.
In addition to the foregoing, other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements herein include the Company's dependencies on its silicon wafer suppliers, technological and product development risks, and the other risks that are described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company does not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

The Company has the intent and ability to hold these investments until the resumption of orderly auctions. As a result of temporary declines in fair value for the securities, we recorded an unrealized loss of $7.9 million to accumulated other comprehensive loss. (2) At December 29, 2007, the Company performed an impairment test on Goodwill. As a result, Goodwill related to the acquisition of Vantis Corporation on June 15, 1999, the acquisition of Integrated Intellectual Properties, Inc. on March 16, 2001, and the acquisition of the FPGA business of Agere Systems, Inc. on January 18, 2002, was determined to have no implied fair value and the entire balance of $223.6 million was recorded as a Goodwill impairment charge. As a result, we no longer have Goodwill recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
