EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (the “Company”) hereby amends the Company’s Annual Report on the Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2006, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 9, 2007.

 

This abbreviated amendment is being filed solely to correct Exhibit 31.1, the  Certification of Chief Executive Officer pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, by adding paragraph 5(b) which was inadvertently omitted in the Company’s original Form 10-K filing.  In addition, we are refiling Item 9A — Controls and Procedures, although no changes are being made to that disclosure, as well as Exhibit 31.2, the Certification of the Chief Financial Officer.  No other information included in the original report on Form 10-K is amended by this Form 10-K/A.  Additionally, the Form 10-K/A does not purport to provide an update or a discussion of any other developments at the Company subsequent to the original filing or otherwise modify the disclosure in the original report on Form 10-K.

 

 

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 30, 2006. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 30, 2006, the company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective.

Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 30, 2006, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm who also audited the company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in our fiscal quarter ended December 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
