TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS

We are delighted to present to you Logitech’s Annual Report
for Fiscal Year 2006. It has been another successful year for
your Company, a year of accelerated revenue growth and many
accomplishments. Exceeding the ﬁ nancial goals we had set for
ourselves at the beginning of the year, we achieved our eighth
year of record sales and proﬁ ts, and our 30th consecutive quarter
of double-digit sales growth. The Company sold 143 million
products worldwide during the year. We introduced more than
130 new products, helping to maintain our strong global brand
and reputation in some categories and to establish ourselves
in others. We also completed our new factory in Suzhou, China,
which became fully operational in the summer.

A NOS ACTIONNAIRS

Nous sommes heureux de vous présenter le rapport annuel de
Logitech pour l’année ﬁ scale 2006, nouvel exercice couronné
de succès pour votre entreprise, marqué entre autres par une
accélération de la croissance et ponctué de nombreuses réali-
sations. Dépassant les objectifs ﬁ nanciers que nous nous étions
ﬁ xés, nous avons réalisé la huitième année record en termes
de chiffre d’affaires comme de bénéﬁ ce, ainsi que notre 30ème
trimestre consécutif de croissance à deux chiffres. Durant ces
douze mois, Logitech a vendu 143 millions de produits à travers
le monde. Nous avons également introduit plus de 130 nou-
veaux produits, ce qui nous a permis de maintenir l’excellente
réputation de notre marque sur certains segments et de nous
étendre dans d’autres. Nous avons aussi achevé l’installation de
notre usine à Suzhou, en Chine, déjà pleinement opérationnelle
depuis l’été dernier.

AN UNSERE AKTIONÄRINNEN UND AKTIONÄRE

Wir freuen uns, Ihnen den Geschäftsbericht von Logitech
für das Geschäftsjahr 2006 vorlegen zu dürfen. Ihre
Gesellschaft kann erneut auf ein erfolgreiches Jahr mit
einem beschleunigtem Umsatzwachstum und zahlreichen
Errungenschaften zurückblicken. Unsere zu Beginn des
Jahres gesetzten Finanzziele wurden übertroffen. So erzielten
wir das achte Jahr in Folge Rekordwerte bei Umsatz und
Gewinn und das 30. Quartal in Folge ein zweistelliges
Umsatzwachstum. Die Gesellschaft hat im Jahresverlauf
weltweit 143 Mio. Produkteinheiten abgesetzt. Wir führten
über 130 neue Produkte ein und stützten so unsere starke
globale Marke. Gleichzeitig stärkte dies unsere Reputation
in bestimmten Produktkategorien und erleichterte uns den
Aufbau neuer Kategorien. Darüber hinaus haben wir unser
neues Werk in Suzhou (China) fertig gestellt und im Sommer
vollständig in Betrieb genommen.

Logitech’s revenue grew by 21 percent over FY 2005 to $1.8 billion.
Operating income was up by 16 percent to $199 million, and net
income was up by 21 percent to $181 million ($1.84 per share). Our
gross margin was at the low end of our long-term target range of
32-34 percent, due to the strong growth in our audio category, which
has historically included more lower-margin products. Even so, we
were able to manage our operating expenses and deliver solid double-
digit growth in both operating income and net income.

We ended the ﬁ scal year with $231 million in cash, net of short-term
debt. This was after investing approximately $241 million in the
repurchase of more than 6 million Logitech shares and ADRs as part of
our share buyback program, which is our chosen method of returning
proﬁ ts to you, in conjunction with the appreciation of our stock.

Le chiffre d’affaires de Logitech a progressé de 21% à $1,8 milliard
par rapport à l’exercice ﬁ scal 2005. Le bénéﬁ ce opérationnel est en
hausse de 16% à $199 millions et le résultat net augmente de 21%
à $181 millions ($1,84 par action). En raison de la forte croissance de
notre gamme de produits audio à plus faible marge, notre marge
brute s’inscrit dans le bas de notre objectif à long terme des 32-34%.
Toutefois, nous avons su garder la maîtrise de nos frais opérationnels,
ce qui nous a permis de clôturer l’année avec une croissance à deux
chiffres, tant du bénéﬁ ce opérationnel que du résultat net.

Nous avons terminé l’exercice ﬁ scal avec $231 millions de liquidités
nettes après déduction d’environ $241 millions consacrés à
l’acquisition de plus de 6 millions d’actions et d’ADRs, dans le cadre de
notre programme de rachat d’actions qui, à nos yeux, est le meilleur
moyen de vous faire participer aux résultats de la société, en sus de
la valorisation de vos actions. Ainsi, durant l’année ﬁ scale écoulée,

Der Umsatz von Logitech ist im Geschäftsjahr 2006 um 21% auf USD
1,8 Mrd. gestiegen. Das Betriebsergebnis erhöhte sich um 16% auf USD
199 Mio., der Reingewinn um 21% auf USD 181 Mio. (USD 1,84 je Aktie).
Unsere Bruttomarge lag am unteren Ende unserer langfristigen
Zielspanne von 32-34%. Dies ist auf das starke Wachstum unseres
Audiosegments zurückzuführen, das seit jeher einen höheren Anteil an
margenschwächeren Produkten aufweist. Der Betriebsaufwand blieb
dennoch unter Kontrolle, und wir konnten ein solides zweistelliges
Wachstum von Betriebsergebnis und Reingewinn erzielen.

Zum Ende des Geschäftsjahres beliefen sich die liquiden Mittel
abzüglich kurzfristiger Verbindlichkeiten auf USD 231 Mio., dies nach
Rückkauf von über 6 Mio. Logitech-Aktien und ADR im Gesamtbetrag
von rund USD 241 Mio. als Teil unseres Aktienrückkaufprogramms.
Dies ist denn auch unsere bevorzugte Methode, in Verbindung mit dem
Wertzuwachs der Logitech-Aktie, unsere Aktionäre am Gewinn teilhaben
zu lassen. In der Tat stieg die Marktkapitalisierung von Logitech
im Geschäftsjahr 2006 von USD 2,9 Mrd. auf USD 3,7 Mrd. Darüber
hinaus wurden Investitionen in unsere Informationssysteme getätigt,

In fact, Logitech market capitalization grew from $2.9 billion to
$3.7 billion in Fiscal 2006. We also invested in information systems
that are important to our ability to manage our growth, and we used
cash for research and development, operations, infrastructure and
marketing to sustain our performance and prepare for our future.

We are pleased that all of our sales regions, as well as our OEM sales
group, achieved double-digit revenue growth in FY 2006. Compared to
Fiscal 2005, the Americas grew by 27 percent, EMEA and Asia Paciﬁ c
each grew by 21 percent, while our OEM sales grew by 11 percent.
This balanced regional performance underlines one of the elements
of the resilience of our business model, because our products appeal
to consumers and businesses worldwide.

la capitalisation boursière de Logitech a passé de $2,9 à $3,7 milliards.
Nous avons investi de façon importante dans les systèmes informa-
tiques qui nous permettront de gérer notre croissance et utilisé une
partie de nos liquidités pour ﬁ nancer la recherche et le développement,
les activités opérationnelles, les infrastructures et le marketing, aﬁ n
de soutenir notre performance et de préparer l’avenir.

Toutes nos zones géographiques, ainsi que les ventes directes à
l’industrie (OEM), ont enregistré une croissance à deux chiffres durant
l’année ﬁ scale 2006. En comparaison de l’exercice précédent, les
Amériques ont progressé de 27%, l’Europe/Moyen-Orient/Afrique et
l’Asie/Paciﬁ que de 21% chacun, tandis que les ventes OEM sont en
croissance de 11%. Cette performance souligne l’un des éléments
importants de notre «business model»: nos produits plaisent aux
particuliers comme aux entreprises, dans l’ensemble du monde.

die für die Steuerung unseres Wachstums von grosser Bedeutung sind.
Auch für Forschung und Entwicklung, den operativen Bereich, Infra-
struktur und Marketing wurden liquide Mittel verwendet, um unsere
Leistungsfähigkeit zu erhalten und uns für die Zukunft zu rüsten.

Wir sind erfreut, dass sämtliche Vertriebsregionen sowie der OEM-
Bereich im Geschäftsjahr 2006 ein zweistelliges Umsatzwachstum
erzielten. Im Vergleich zum Geschäftsjahr 2005 legten wir in Nord- und
Südamerika um 27%, in Europa, dem Nahen Osten und Afrika bzw. im
asiatisch-paziﬁ schen Raum um je21% und im OEM –Bereich um 11%
zu. Diese ausgewogene regionale Entwicklung bringt ein zentrales
Element der Stärke unseres Geschäftsmodells zum Ausdruck, indem
unsere Produkte sowohl für Privat- als auch Geschäftskunden in aller
Welt attraktiv sind.

Ein Schlüsselfaktor für den Erfolg von Logitech im Berichtsjahr, der
uns auch Chancen für die Zukunft eröffnet, ist unsere Fähigkeit, das
Potenzial der verschiedensten zentralen Verbrauchertrends weltweit
auszuschöpfen. Dazu zählen:

A key driver of Logitech’s success this year, one that also brings
opportunities for the future, is our ability to leverage multiple key
trends among consumers around the world, including:

• The growing popularity of digital audio, in the home and on the go.

• The increasing pervasiveness of broadband Internet connections in
the home, which has led to increased adoption of voice and video
communications over the Internet.

• The increased complexity and richness of home-entertainment

systems in the living room.

• The growth and attractiveness of rich media and graphics-intensive

applications on PCs and Macs.

• The popularity of digital gaming, both on the PC and on consoles.

L’un des facteurs clés du succès de Logitech cette année—qui nous
ouvre d’ailleurs de belles perspectives d’avenir—tient à notre aptitude
à capitaliser sur les diverses tendances dominantes du marché auprès
des consommateurs, parmi lesquels on peut citer:

• La popularité croissante de l’audio numérique, tant à la maison

qu’à l’extérieur.

• L’adoption croissante de connections Internet à haut débit dans
les foyers, qui permet une utilisation accrue de communications
audio et vidéo via Internet.

• La complexité croissante et la diversité des systèmes de
divertissement installés dans chaque lieu d’habitation.

• Le nombre croissant et l’attrait des applications multimédias

sur Mac et PC faisant appel à un graphisme sophistiqué.

• La popularité des jeux numériques pour consoles et PC.

• die wachsende Beliebtheit digitaler Audioprodukte für zu Hause

und unterwegs.

• die zunehmende Verbreitung von Breitband-Internetanschlüssen
bei Privatnutzern, die zu einer Zunahme der Sprach- und Video-
kommunikation über das Internet geführt hat.

• die steigende Komplexität und Vielfalt von Home-Entertainment-

Systeme.

• das Wachstum und die Attraktivität von Rich-Media- und

graﬁ kintensiven Anwendungen für PC und Mac.

• die Beliebtheit von digitalen Spielen auf PC und Spielkonsolen.

Millionen von Nutzern speichern und hören bereits digitale Musik
auf ihrem Computer, MP3-Player oder iPod®, und ihre Zahl wächst
immer schneller. Die von Logitech dazu angebotenen Peripherieg-
eräte haben bei diesen Konsumenten grossen Anklang gefunden und

Millions of people are storing and playing their digital audio on
their PC, MP3 player or iPod®, and the numbers are increasing rapidly.
Logitech’s line of peripherals for these consumers has been very
successful, contributing to 112 percent sales growth, year over
year, for our audio business. The audio category is now Logitech’s
second largest business. Among the innovative audio products
introduced this year are the Logitech® Z-5450 Digital speakers with
dual wireless rear speakers; the Wireless Music System line, which
lets you wirelessly stream music from your PC or iPod to your stereo
speakers; and speakers and headphones for portable music players.

The growing popularity of Internet communications has led to strong
demand for our PC headsets and webcams, enabling rich and affordable
communication over the Internet. Robust sales of headsets have

Des millions d’adeptes stockent et écoutent de la musique numérique
sur leur PC, leur lecteur MP3 et leur iPod®. Et leur nombre augmente
rapidement. La gamme Logitech de périphériques destinés à ces
consommateurs a rencontré un franc succès, contribuant à la hausse
de 112% des ventes de produits audio. La catégorie audio est mainten-
ant le deuxième secteur d’activités de Logitech. Parmi les innovations
introduites durant l’année, notons les haut-parleurs numériques
Logitech® Z-5450 comprenant des haut-parleurs arrières doubles, sans
ﬁ l; le système de musique «wireless» qui permet la diffusion sans ﬁ l de
la musique à partir de votre PC ou de votre iPod® sur les haut-parleurs
de votre salon; ainsi que les haut-parleurs et casques pour lecteurs de
musique portables.

La popularité croissante des communications via Internet a entraîné
une forte hausse de la demande pour nos casques et caméras vidéo
qui permettent de communiquer facilement, agréablement et à
moindre coût, par le biais d’Internet. Les ventes de nos casques ont

im Audiosegment zu einem Umsatzwachstum von 112% gegenüber dem
Vorjahr beigetragen. Das Audiosegment stellt inzwischen den zweit-
grössten Geschäftsbereich von Logitech dar. Zu den im Berichtsjahr
eingeführten innovativen Audioprodukten zählen das Lautsprechersystem
Logitech® Z-5450 Digital mit zwei kabellosen Rück-Lautsprechern, das
Wireless Music System, daskabelloses Musik-Streaming vom PC oder iPod®
zu den Lautsprechern der Stereoanlage ermöglicht, sowie Lautsprecher
und Kopfhörer für tragbare Musik-Player.

Die wachsende Beliebtheit der Internetkommunikation hat zu einer
starken Nachfrage nach unseren Headsets und Webkameras für PCs
geführt, die eine ausgereifte und erschwingliche Kommunikation
über das Internet ermöglichen. Der solide Headseat-Umsatz trug
zum bereits erwähnten Wachstum unseres Audiogeschäfts bei. Die
erfreulichen Umsatzzahlen bei Webkameras führten darüber hinaus
in unserem Videogeschäft zu einem Wachstum von 36% gegenüber

contributed to the previously mentioned growth in our audio business.
And strong sales of webcams have resulted in year-over-year growth
of 36 percent in our video business. Among the innovative new video
products introduced this year are the QuickCam® Fusion™ and QuickCam®
for Notebooks Pro, as well as the Logitech® Video Effects™ software.
The Video Effects software, a key differentiator available only with Log-
itech webcams, has become very popular because it
lets people transform themselves into fun characters
and add face accessories while they are chatting with
friends and family over an Internet connection.

With the addition of high-deﬁ nition TVs and other
new components to people’s home-entertainment
systems,, the living room is becoming richer, but

d’ailleurs contribué à la croissance de nos activités audio évoquée
précédemment. Quant aux caméras web (webcams), leur succès s’est
traduit par une croissance de 36% de notre secteur vidéo par rapport
à l’exercice précédent. Parmi les innovations introduites dans notre
gamme de produits vidéo, citons la QuickCam® Fusion™, une webcam
destinée aux ordinateurs de bureaux, la QuickCam® pour Notebooks
Pro, conçue spécialement pour les ordinateurs portables, et le logiciel
Logitech® Video Effects™. Ce logiciel, uniquement disponible avec les
webcams Logitech, est un élément clé de différentiation. Sa popularité
tient au fait que les gens peuvent se grimer et adopter les traits de
personnages amusants pendant qu’ils parlent avec
leurs amis ou les membres de leur famille via Internet.

dem Vorjahr. In diesem Segment wurden im Berichtsjahr unter
anderem die innovativen Videoprodukte QuickCam® Fusion™ und
QuickCam® for Notebooks Pro sowie die Logitech® Video Effects™
Software lanciert. Die Video Effects Software—ein Produkt, mit dem
sich Logitech deutlich abhebt und das nur mit Logitech-Webkameras
eingesetzt werden kann—erfreut sich grosser Beliebtheit, da sich
der Nutzer während des Gesprächs mit Freunden oder der Familie
über das Internet in lustige Figuren verwandeln oder für sein Gesicht
Accessoires auswählen kann.

Mit dem Angebot an hochauﬂ ösenden Fernsehern (HDTV) und

anderen neuen Komponenten für Home-Entertain-
ment-Systeme wird das Unterhaltungsprogramm
im Wohnzimmer zwar reichhaltiger, jedoch auch
komplexer. Eine zunehmend nachgefragte Lösung
bietet deshalb die Harmony®-Fernbedienung von

also more complex. The line of Logitech Harmony® remotes is becoming
widely acknowledged as the answer to this complexity, with sales of
Harmony remotes continuing to grow in the U.S., and beginning to
accelerate in Europe. The Harmony line represents our strongest move
to date into the living room and the new digital home. Its potential to
become the universal control device for enjoying digital entertainment
across the home is signiﬁ cant.

Increasing numbers of people are using their PC to work or play with rich
media—such as video, large graphical images, sound and games—as
well as with other applications that generate large ﬁ les. For greater
comfort and performance, these people turn to Logitech for mice, key-
boards and other control devices. This year, Logitech incorporated laser
optical technology into a wider range of its desktop and notebook

qu’elle permet de maîtriser cette complexité, la ligne de télécommandes
universelles Logitech Harmony® s’est imposée comme la solution de
choix. Les ventes de ces télécommandes ont continué leur progression
aux Etats-Unis et elles commencent à s’accélérer en Europe. La gamme
de produits Harmony représente notre plus sérieuse incursion dans
le salon des particuliers et dans la «maison digitale». Son futur est
prometteur et nous pensons que les produits de la gamme ont le
potentiel pour s’imposer en tant que commandes de référence pour
le divertissement numérique à la maison.

Un nombre croissant de personnes utilise leur PC pour travailler ou
jouer avec des médias enrichis—tels la vidéo, les images graphiques,
le son et les jeux—mais aussi utilise d’autres applications générant
des ﬁ chiers de taille importante. Pour des performances et une facilité
d’utilisation accrues, ces utilisateurs ont recours aux souris, claviers
et autres périphériques de contrôle que leur offre Logitech. Cette
année, nous avons introduit une technologie optique au laser dans

Logitech. So sind in den USA die Verkaufszahlen für dieses Produkt
weiter gestiegen, während sich das Umsatzwachstum in Europa zu
beschleunigen beginnt. Die Harmony-Serie stellt unseren bisher
stärktsten Vorstoss in die Wohnzimmer unserer Kunden und das neue
digitale Heim dar. Das Produkt bietet enormes Potenzial, um sich
als Universalfernbedienung für digitale Unterhaltung im gesamten
Wohnbereich zu etablieren.

that brings new levels of control to creative professionals who use the
Adobe® Creative Suite 2 on their Mac.

PC and console gaming continue to be popular around the world, and
Logitech’s range of peripherals is designed to enhance the gaming
experience, for casual gamers as well as for expert gamers. For PCs, the
high-performance gaming mice and keyboards, introduced last year,
have become very popular. Logitech’s products for the PSP™ handheld
entertainment system have also been well received, especially the

Logitech was founded in October 1981, so this year marks the Company’s
25th anniversary. The anniversary provides us an opportunity to reﬂ ect
brieﬂ y on the past. Logitech was founded at the beginning of the
personal computer industry—the same year in which the IBM PC was
introduced—during a time of excitement and anticipation about the
possibilities for signiﬁ cantly enhancing ordinary people’s lives with
technology. Logitech has been a part of this industry for 25 years,
and we are proud to have contributed to its success. We have seen the
transformations, the challenges, the hopes and dreams that have come
true, as well as the setbacks and difﬁ culties—all of which have brought
us to where we are today. It has been an amazing and rewarding journey.
In your Annual Report package you will ﬁ nd a T-shirt commemorating
our 25th anniversary. We hope you’ll wear it with the same pride we
feel as we look back.

Fondée en octobre 1981, Logitech fête cette année son 25ème
anniversaire. Une étape importante qui nous donne l’opportunité
de faire un bref retour en arrière. La société a vu le jour à une époque
où l’industrie des ordinateurs personnels faisait ses débuts, de fait
l’année où IBM introduisait son premier PC. Epoque excitante, où le
potentiel de l’informatique semblait illimité et allait changer la
façon de vivre de tout un chacun. Logitech fait partie de cette industrie
depuis 25 ans et nous sommes ﬁ ers d’avoir contribué à son succès.
Nous avons participé à ses transformations, vécu ses déﬁ s, ses espoirs
et ses rêves devenus réalité. Et nous avons aussi survécu à ses revers
et ses difﬁ cultés. Ces expériences nous ont amenés là où nous sommes
aujourd’hui. Ce fut une expérience fantastique et extraordinairement
riche. Dans la pochette contenant votre rapport annuel, vous trouverez
un T-shirt commémorant notre 25ème anniversaire. Nous espérons que
vous le porterez avec le même sentiment de ﬁ erté que nous ressentons
lorsque nous jetons un regard sur ces années passées.

Rückblick in die Vergangenheit veranlassen. Das Unternehmen wurde
gleichzeitig mit dem Beginn der PC-Branche gegründet—im Jahr der
Einführung des IBM-PCs. Damals herrschten grosse Begeisterung und
Vorfreude über die Möglichkeiten, den Alltag der Menschen dank
neuer Technologien deutlich zu verbessern. Logitech ist seit 25 Jahren
Teil dieser Branche, und wir sind stolz, zu ihrem Erfolg massgeblich
beigetragen zu haben. Wir waren Zeuge von Veränderungen, Her-
ausforderungen, Hoffnungen und Träumen die in Erfüllung gingen,
aber auch von Rückschlägen und Schwierigkeiten. Alle diese Erfah-
rungen haben uns dahin gebracht, wo wir heute stehen, und lassen
uns auf eine faszinierende Reise zurückblicken, die sich gelohnt hat.
Zusammen mit unserem Geschäftsbericht erhalten Sie deshalb aus
Anlass unseres 25-jährigen Jubiläums ein T-Shirt, mit dem wir Sie an
unserem Stolz auf die Geschichte unseres—Ihres—Unternehmens
teilhaben lassen möchten.

What is notable to us is that 25 years later, the excitement and sense of
possibility are just as alive—if not more so—as they were those many
years ago. The personal computer industry—which is now a $300 billion
dollar industry—is still transforming and full of opportunity. Logitech’s
original vision, that the interface between the person and the tech-
nology would play a central role in the way people get the most out of
their experience in the digital world, is becoming a more and more
visible reality. As the excitement and innovation move beyond just the
PC or Mac to other platforms that enable a very rich digital lifestyle,
Logitech’s personal peripherals create new and inspiring opportunities,
especially in the areas of digital audio, Internet communications and
home entertainment.

Ce qui est vraiment encourageant, c’est que 25 ans plus tard, nous
ressentons toujours la même exaltation et que les opportunités
semblent toujours aussi excitantes—si ce n’est plus—qu’à nos débuts.
L’industrie informatique—qui est aujourd’hui un marché de quelque
$300 milliards—est encore et toujours en pleine mutation et riche de
promesses. La vision originelle de Logitech, selon laquelle l’interface
entre l’homme et la technologie allait jouer un rôle crucial et permettre
aux utilisateurs de vivre intensément le monde numérique, est une
réalité de plus en plus évidente. Alors que l’innovation et la technologie
évoluent au-delà du PC ou du Mac vers d’autres plateformes numéri-
ques, qui permettent de proﬁ ter pleinement du monde digital, les
périphériques de Logitech ouvrent de nouveaux horizons dans les
secteurs de l’audio numérique, des communications Internet et du
divertissement à domicile.

Besonders bemerkenswert ist, dass auch nach 25 Jahren die
Begeisterung und der Glaube an das Potenzial ungebrochen
anhalten. Die PC-Branche, die inzwischen USD 300 Mrd. umsetzt,
beﬁ ndet sich weiterhin im Wandel und bietet unzählige Möglich-
keiten. Dabei wird die ursprüngliche Vision von Logitech mehr und
mehr Realität, wonach die Schnittstelle zwischen Anwender und
Technologie eine zentrale Rolle spielt, wie die Anwender ihre Erfah-
rungen mit der digitalen Welt am besten nutzen können. Die
Begeisterung und der Ideenreichtum greifen inzwischen vom PC
oder Mac auf andere Plattformen über, die einen vielfältigen
„digitalen Lebensstil“ erlauben. Logitech unterstützt diesen Trend
mit Peripheriegeräten, die vor allem in den Bereichen digitale
Audiosysteme, Internetkommunikation und Home-Entertainment
neue und aufregende Möglichkeiten eröffnen.

It is also beneﬁ cial to reﬂ ect on what has made Logitech successful.
A key factor is our business model. Our portfolio approach to products
provides us with resilience—if there is a weakness in one product
category, other categories can compensate. Another successful aspect
of our business model can be expressed with a metaphor: “We are chefs,
not farmers.” We work with the farmers on what they are cultivating,
and we then take the best ingredients and put them together in
innovative recipes that appeal to our customers. What this means for us,

for example, is that we partner with companies who
supply us with the very best components and technologies
for laser optics or Bluetooth® wireless connectivity.
And we partner with other companies on materials for
creating the right look and feel of a product. Out of

Après 25 ans, il est aussi intéressant de se pencher sur les raisons
du succès de Logitech. L’un des facteurs-clés est sans doute notre
«business model». La diversiﬁ cation de notre portefeuille de produits
nous permet de jouer dans plusieurs catégories: si une catégorie
s’affaiblit, d’autres peuvent prendre le relais. Un autre avantage peut
être exprimé par la métaphore suivante: «nous sommes des chefs
de cuisine et non des fermiers». Nous recherchons les meilleurs ingré-
dients et les associons par des recettes qui séduisent nos clients. Ainsi,
nous travaillons en partenariat avec des entreprises qui nous fournissent
les meilleurs composants et les meilleures technologies dans les
secteurs de l’optique au laser et de la connectivité sans ﬁ l Bluetooth®.
Nous sommes également en contact avec des sociétés spécialisées

dans le domaine des matériaux, qui nous
aident à concevoir des produits d’aspect, de
texture et d’utilisation agréables. En incorpo-
rant ces divers ingrédients, nous

Interessant ist rückblickend auch die Frage nach den Gründen des
Erfolgs von Logitech. Ein zentraler Faktor ist unser Geschäftsmodell.
Unser Ansatz bezüglich Produktportfolio sorgt für Stabilität. Zeigt
eine Produktkategorie Schwächeanzeichen, wird dies durch andere
Kategorien ausgeglichen. Ein weiterer Erfolgsfaktor unseres Ge-
schäftsmodells lässt sich durch folgendes Bild verdeutlichen: “Wir

and are delighted to use. Because we are selecting the best ingredients
as we need them, we can be ﬂ exible and responsive, to bring the
right products to market in a timely fashion, and to face the market
and competitive challenges that we meet along the way.

We begin Fiscal Year 2007, and our year of celebrating the 25th
anniversary, with the best blend of the old and the new, both in terms
of our products and our people. While we retain leadership in our
core product categories, we also are gaining signiﬁ cant momentum
and leadership in new categories.

Through employees who have been with the company for many years,
we have the wisdom of experience, from our successes as well as our

en fonction de nos besoins, nous pouvons être ﬂ exibles, à l’écoute du

façon de faire nous a permis de demeurer compétitifs et de faire face
aux déﬁ s que nous rencontrons chaque jour.

Nous entamons l’année ﬁ scale 2007, année de notre 25ème anniversaire,
proﬁ tant au mieux de l’équilibre entre «expérience»—notre acquis,
notre savoir—et «renouveau constant»—notre futur, nos déﬁ s
permanents—tant en termes de collaborateurs que de produits. Nous
gardons notre leadership dans nos principales catégories de produits,
tout en faisant notre place dans de nouveaux segments de marché.

Grâce aux collaborateurs qui sont restés ﬁ dèles à Logitech pendant de
nombreuses années, nous avons la sagesse qui vient de l’expérience,
tirée aussi bien de nos succès que de nos revers. Fruit de notre
croissance et en complément à nos collaborateurs conﬁ rmés, partout

werden Produkte entwickelt, die beim Kunden Kauﬁ nteresse wecken
und von diesem gerne benutzt werden. Da wir entsprechend unseren
Anforderungen die besten Komponenten auswählen, können wir ﬂ exi-

zeitnah anbieten und den ständigen Herausforderungen des Marktes
und des Wettbewerbs begegnen.

Das Geschäftsjahr 2007 und unser 25-jähriges Jubiläum starten
wir mit der idealen Mischung aus Altbewährtem und Neuem,
sowohl hinsichtlich unserer Produkte als auch unserer Mitarbeiter.
Wir behaupten nicht nur unsere Spitzenposition in unseren Kern-
produktkategorien, sondern bauen darüber hinaus unseren Marktanteil
und unsere Leadership in neuen Kategorien deutlich aus.

around the world—a beneﬁ t of our growth—who bring different
perspectives and professional experience. We added 400 new members
to Logitech’s professional staff in the past 12 months. And, three new
senior executives complement our strong management team. They
come from senior positions held in much larger companies, and will
be key contributors to help Logitech scale as we grow. Mark J. Hawkins
recently joined the company from a career at Dell and Hewlett-Packard,
as our Senior Vice President of Finance and Information Systems and
Chief Financial Ofﬁ cer. L. Joseph Sullivan, who joined us last year from
Carrier Corporation, a subsidiary of United Technologies, has recently

trois ont occupé des postes clés dans des sociétés de premier plan et
ils nous aideront à gérer notre croissance. Mark J. Hawkins vient tout
juste de nous rejoindre en tant que Senior Vice President «Finance
& Information Systems» et Directeur Financier (CFO), après avoir fait
carrière chez Dell et Hewlett Packard. Entré chez Logitech l’an dernier,
après avoir quitté Carrier Corporation, une ﬁ liale de United Tech-

erweitert, die bisher alle Führungspositionen in wesentlich grösseren
Unternehmen bekleideten und entscheidend zum künftigen Wachstum
von Logitech beitragen werden. Mark J. Hawkins, der vor kurzem
von Dell and zuvor Hewlett-Packard zu uns gestossen ist, nimmt die
Funktion eines Senior Vice President of Finance and Information

More than ever, with a 25-year perspective, we see
how our employees—more than 7,200 at the end of Fiscal Year 2006—
are a critical asset for Logitech. It is through their passion and dedication,
contribution and consistent execution that we continue to offer
innovative, high-quality products to delight our customers. Investing
in their professional development is a focus for the Company. We are
continuing the program started last year to develop our future leaders.
And we are also maintaining a focus on making continuous training a
part of every employee’s job.

Plus que jamais, ces 25 années d’expérience nous
font comprendre à quel point nos collaborateurs—
plus de 7200 à ﬁ n mars 2006—représentent la
pierre angulaire de Logitech. C’est grâce à leur
passion et à leur engagement, à leur contribution
et à leur rigueur d’exécution que nous pouvons continuer à offrir des
produits innovants et de qualité, pour satisfaire au mieux nos clients.
Le développement professionnel de nos collaborateurs est donc de
première importance pour la société et nous entendons poursuivre le
programme, initié l’an dernier, destiné à former nos futurs dirigeants.
Nous allons également poursuivre nos efforts dans la formation con-

Erfolgsfaktor von Logitech. Dank ihres begeisterten und engagierten
Einsatzes sowie ihres unablässigen Beitrags zur Unternehmensent-
wicklung können wir unsere Kunden weiterhin mit innovativen und
qualitativ hochwertigen Produkten erfreuen. Im Zentrum stehen
deshalb Investitionen in die beruﬂ iche Weiterentwicklung unserer
Mitarbeiter. Das im letzten Jahr begonnene Programm, unsere
Führungskräfte von morgen auf ihre Aufgabe vorzubereiten, wird
fortgesetzt. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt ist und bleibt daneben die
kontinuierliche Fortbildung sämtlicher Mitarbeiter.

Since 1994, Logitech has had its own manufacturing operations in Suzhou, China, which currently produce
approximately half of the Company’s products. The Company outsources the remaining production to contract
manufacturers located in Asia. The Company’s other operations support the business units and marketing and
sales organizations through management of distribution centers and the product supply chain, and the provision
of technical support, customer relations and other services.

Logitech International S.A. (also referred to as the “Company”), the parent company of Logitech, is a joint
stock company (société anonyme, Aktiengesellschaft) incorporated under the laws of Switzerland, with its
registered office located in Apples, Switzerland. The Company’s registered shares are listed on the SWX Swiss
Exchange (Ticker: LOGN; security number: 2165533; ISIN: CH0021655334). American Depositary Shares
(“ADSs”) are listed on the Nasdaq National Market in the form of American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”)
(Ticker: LOGI; U.S. security number: 541419; ISIN: US5414191073). For information on Logitech’s holdings in
its own shares, refer to section 1.2 below. As of March 31, 2006, Logitech’s market capitalization, based on
outstanding registered shares of 91,325,697, amounted to CHF 4.8 billion ($3.6 billion). Refer to section 1.2
below for information on Logitech International S.A.’s holdings in the Company’s shares as of March 31, 2006.

Logitech (Jersey) Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Logitech International S.A., with its registered office
in St. Helier, Jersey, Channel Islands, was the issuer of 1% convertible bonds of CHF 170.0 million issued in
June 2001 (refer to section 2.7 below for more information on Logitech’s convertible bonds). On August 31,
2005, the Company exercised its right to call the convertible bonds for early redemption in accordance with the
terms of the bonds. As of November 11, 2005, all outstanding bonds had been presented for conversion into
5,448,693 Logitech registered shares at the conversion price of CHF 31.20 per share. The conversion was

SESTO-FBC, conversion and acquisition rights are not taken into consideration for the calculation of the
relevant shareholdings, unless such rights entitle their holders to acquire, upon exercise, at least 5% of the
Company’s voting rights.
In compliance with Article 19 paragraph 2 of SESTO-FBC, shareholdings are calculated based on the
aggregate number of voting rights entered into the Swiss commercial register. This aggregate number was

Based on a SEC filing by FMR Corp. on February 14, 2006, FMR Corp. was the beneficial holder under
applicable US securities laws of 7,098,170 Logitech shares and/or ADSs, representing approximately 7.4% of the
Company’s aggregate voting rights, as of December 31, 2005. FMR Corp. is the parent company of Fidelity
Investments, a U.S.-based mutual fund company, and its beneficial ownership is as a result of holdings through
one or more of its funds. On March 21, 2006 FMR Corp. notified the Company that its shareholdings had fallen
to 4.96% of the Company’s aggregate voting rights on March 15, 2006.

SESTA requires shareholders who own voting rights exceeding certain percentage thresholds of a company
incorporated in Switzerland whose shares are listed on a stock exchange in Switzerland to notify the company
and the relevant Swiss exchange of such holdings. Following receipt of this notification, the company is required
to inform the public in Switzerland. The Company announced in the Swiss Official Gazette of Commerce dated
October 26, 2005 that the holdings of its own shares had fallen below 5% of the total voting rights. During fiscal
year 2006, the Company was not otherwise required to make any such announcements in compliance with
SESTA.

1.3 Cross-shareholdings

2. Capital Structure

2.1 Share Capital

As of March 31, 2006, Logitech International S.A.’s nominal share capital was CHF 47,901,655 ($36.7

million), consisting of 95,803,310 registered shares with a par value of CHF .5 each.

An additional 20 million registered shares have been authorized for issuance by the shareholders. In
addition, conditional share capital designated to cover employee and director option and stock purchase plan
rights amounted to CHF 15,165,465 and conditional capital designated to cover conversion rights granted in
connection with the issue of convertible bonds amounted to CHF 2,725,000. Refer to section 2.2 for more
information on the Company’s authorized and conditional capital.

2.2 Details on the Company’s Authorized and Conditional Share Capital

Authorized share capital. Pursuant to Article 27 of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the Board is
authorized to increase the share capital of the Company by CHF 10,000,000 through the issuance of 20 million
registered shares with a par value of CHF .5 each, to be fully paid-in. This authorization expires on June 24,
2006. Shareholders of the Company will be requested at the 2006 Annual General Meeting to extend this
authorization until June 2008. The Board of Directors may restrict the shareholders’ right to subscribe to the
newly issued shares by preference, in particular if the shares are placed on international markets or issued in
connection with an acquisition or merger. The unexercised preferential subscription rights revert to the Company
and their use may be directed by the Board of Directors. The Board sets the price at which the shares will be
issued, the manner in which the newly issued shares must be paid-in, and the conditions under which preferential
subscription rights can be exercised.

First conditional share capital. Pursuant to Article 28 of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the
share capital of the Company may be increased by CHF 15,165,465 through the issuance of up to 30,330,930
registered shares with a par value of CHF .5 each. The purpose of this conditional share capital is to cover option
or other equity rights granted or that may be granted to employees, officers and directors of Logitech under its
employee equity incentive plans (refer to section 2.7 for information on Logitech’s stock purchase and stock
option plans). The conditional share capital increase does not have an expiration date. The shareholders do not
have the preferential right to subscribe to the newly issued shares.

Second conditional share capital. Pursuant to Article 29 of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the
share capital of the Company could have been increased by CHF 2,725,000 through the issuance of up to
5,450,000 registered shares with a par value of CHF .5 each, to be fully paid-in. The purpose of this conditional
share capital was to cover conversion rights granted in connection with the issue of Logitech’s convertible bonds
in 2001. However, during the 2006 fiscal year the Company satisfied its conversion obligations under the
convertible bonds through the delivery of treasury shares rather than the use of conditional capital. As a result,
the Company expects to cancel this conditional capital.

2.3 Changes in the Company’s Shareholders’ Equity

As of March 31, 2006, 2005, 2004 and 2003, balances in shareholders’ equity of Logitech International
S.A., based on the parent company’s Swiss Statutory Financial Statements, were as follows (in thousands of

2.4 Share Categories

Registered Shares. Logitech International S.A. has only one category of shares – registered shares with a
par value of CHF .5 per share. Each of the 95,803,310 issued registered shares carries the same rights. There are
no preferential rights. However, a shareholder must be entered in the share register of the Company to exercise
voting rights and the rights deriving thereof (such as the right to convene a general meeting of shareholders or the
right to put an item on the meeting’s agenda). Refer to section 6 for an outline of participation rights of the
Company’s shareholders. Refer to section 1.1 and “Logitech ADSs” below for information on Logitech’s ADR
program.

20-F

Each registered share entitles its owner to dividends declared, even if the owner is not registered in the share
register of the Company. Under Swiss law, the Company pays dividends upon approval by its shareholders. This
request for shareholder approval typically follows the recommendation of the Board. Although Logitech has paid
dividends in the past, the Board of Directors announced in 1997 its intention not to recommend payment of cash
dividends in the future in order to retain earnings for use in the operation and expansion of Logitech’s business.

Unless this right is restricted in compliance with Swiss law and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation,
shareholders have the right to subscribe by preference for newly issued shares. Refer to section 2.2 for a
description of the provisions of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation relating to the restriction of the
shareholders’ preferential subscription rights.

The Company has not issued non-voting shares (“bons de participation,” “Partizipationsscheine”).

LISA

Logitech ADSs. Through an arrangement with The Bank of New York, as depositary, Logitech American
Depository Shares, or ADSs, trade on the Nasdaq National Market. Each ADS represents one Logitech registered
share. The ADSs are issued by The Bank of New York pursuant to a Deposit Agreement, dated March 27, 1997,
as amended, between Logitech, The Bank of New York, as depositary, and owners and beneficial owners of
ADS. The Deposit Agreement governs the rights of holders of Logitech ADSs and has the effect of giving

CG-5

holders of ADSs the same economic and voting interest in Logitech as if they were a holder of Logitech
registered shares. However, because The Bank of New York actually owns the Logitech registered shares
underlying the Logitech ADSs, ADS holders must rely on The Bank of New York to exercise the rights of a
shareholder by instructing the depositary in writing the manner in which they wish to vote or exercise their rights
as shareholders. The depositary, subject to Swiss laws and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, is required
to vote or exercise such rights as instructed. Each ADS entitles its owner to dividends declared, if any, in respect
of Logitech registered shares underlying the ADSs, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement. Any cash
dividends by Logitech to its shareholders paid in Swiss francs will be converted by the depositary to U.S. dollars
and paid by the depositary to holders of ADSs, net of conversion expenses, and in accordance with the Deposit
Agreement. As of March 31, 2006, according to the records of The Bank of New York, approximately
17,132,636 ADSs were outstanding in the United States.

2.5 Bonus Certificates

The Company has not issued certificates or equity securities that provide financial rights in consideration for
rendered or claims waived (referred to as “bonus certificates,” “bons de jouissance,” or

services
“Genussscheine”).

2.6 Limitations on Transferability and Nominee Registration

The Company maintains a share register that lists the names of the registered owners and beneficiaries of
the shares. Registration in the Company’s share register occurs upon request and is not subject to any condition.
Shareholders can be entered into the share register with voting rights even if they are holding their shares for the
account of a third party (nominee registration).

Refer to section 6.1 for the conditions of exercise of the shareholders’ voting rights.

2.7 Conversion and Option Rights

Conversion Rights.

In June 2001, Logitech issued through its wholly owned subsidiary Logitech (Jersey)
Ltd. CHF 170.0 million ($95.6 million based on exchange rates at date of issuance) aggregate principal amount
of its 1% convertible bonds. The convertible bonds were issued in denominations of CHF 5,000 at par value, with
interest at 1.00% payable annually, and final redemption in June 2006 at 105%, representing a yield to maturity
of 1.96%. On August 31, 2005, the Company exercised its right to call the convertible bonds for early
redemption in accordance with the terms of the bonds. As of November 11, 2005, all outstanding bonds had been
presented for conversion into 5,448,693 Logitech registered shares at the conversion price of CHF 31.20 per
share ($23.72 based on exchange rates at November 11, 2005). The conversion was satisfied through delivery of
treasury shares.

Logitech has not issued any other bonds.

Warrants. Logitech has not issued warrants on its shares.

Employee Stock Options and Stock Purchase Plans. Logitech believes equity compensation is an
important part of attracting and retaining high-caliber employees and of aligning the interests of management and
the directors of the Company with the interests of the shareholders. Accordingly, Logitech maintains stock
purchase and stock option plans for its employees.

Under the 1996 Stock Plan, the Company may grant to employees and directors, options to purchase
registered shares or ADSs, restricted shares, stock appreciation rights, and stock units, which are bookkeeping
entries representing the equivalent of shares. A total of 38,000,000 registered shares and/or ADSs may be issued
under this plan. Options generally vest over four years and remain outstanding for periods not to exceed ten
years. Options may be granted only at exercise prices of at least 100% of the fair market value of the registered

CG-6

shares or ADSs on the date of grant; restricted shares and stock appreciation rights may be granted at prices less
than 100% of the fair market value of the registered shares on the date of grant; no cash consideration is required
to be paid by employees in connection with the grant of stock units. As of March 31, 2006, Logitech had made
no grants of restricted shares, stock appreciation rights or stock units.

Under the 1988 Stock Option Plan, options to purchase registered shares were granted to employees and
consultants at exercise prices ranging from zero to amounts in excess of the fair market value of the registered
shares on the date of grant. The terms and conditions with respect to options granted were determined by the
Board of Directors who administered this plan. Options generally vest over four years and remain outstanding for
periods not exceeding ten years. Further grants may not be made under this plan.

As of March 31, 2006, there were a total of 10,803,972 registered shares subject to outstanding options
granted under all plans. Each option entitles the holder to purchase one share of Logitech International S.A.
(including shares represented by ADSs) at the strike price. Of these options, 5,254,909 were exercisable, with the
balance subject to continued vesting over time. The exercise prices of the currently outstanding options range
from $2.00 to $47.99. Logitech shareholders do not have preferential rights to subscribe to employee options.

Refer to section 5.6 and note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the

Company’s outstanding stock options.

Under the 1996 Employee Share Purchase Plan, eligible employees may purchase registered shares with up
to 10% of their earnings at the lower of 85% of the fair market value at the beginning or the end of each
six-month offering period. There are two offering periods, each consists of a six-month period during which
payroll deductions of employee participants are accumulated under the share purchase plan. Subject to continued
participation in these plans, purchase agreements are automatically exercised at the end of each offering period.

3. The Board of Directors

The Board of Directors is elected by the shareholders and holds the ultimate decision-making authority of
the Company, except for those matters reserved by law or by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to its
shareholders or for those that are delegated to the Executive Officers under the Organizational Regulations. The
Board makes resolutions through a majority vote of the members present at the meetings. In the event of a tie, the
vote of the Chairman decides.

20-F

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation set the minimum number of directors at three. The Company had
eight Directors as of May 1, 2006. One of the Company’s current directors, Kee-Lock Chua, is being presented

Committee. Refer to section 3.5 for more information on the Company’s Nominating Committee. If the agenda
of a General Meeting of Shareholders includes an item calling for the election of directors, any shareholder may
propose a candidate for election to the Board at the meeting. Also, one or more shareholders who together
represent shares representing at least the lesser of (i) one percent of the share capital or (ii) an aggregate par value

CG-10

of one million Swiss francs may demand that the election of directors be placed on the agenda of a meeting and

The Board of Directors has determined that each of Mr. Bengier, Mr. Chua, Mr. Gill, Mr. Bousquette,
Mr. Okamoto and Ms. Ribar are independent Directors under the listing standards of the Nasdaq National Market
and under the Swiss Code of Best Practice for Corporate Governance. As appointed by the Board, Frank Gill
serves as the Lead Independent Director. Gary Bengier will replace Mr. Gill as Lead Independent Director upon
Mr. Gill’s resignation from the Board of Directors after the Company’s Annual General Meeting in June 2006.

CG-11

The responsibilities of the Lead Independent Director include chairing meetings of the non-executive Directors
and serving as the presiding Director in performing such other functions as the Board may direct.

The Chairman sets the agenda for Board meetings. Any member of the Board of Directors may request that
a meeting of the Board be convened. The Directors receive materials in advance of Board meetings allowing
them to prepare for the handling of the items on the agenda. The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
recommend Executive Officers who, at the invitation of the Board, attend Board meetings to report on areas of
the business within their responsibility, thereby ensuring that the Board has sufficient information to make
appropriate decisions.

In case of emergency, the Chairman of the Board may have the power to pass resolutions which would
otherwise be the responsibility of the Board. Decisions by the Chairman of the Board in this way are subject to
ratification by the Board of Directors at its next meeting or by way of written consent.

The Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Guerrino De Luca, manages the day-to-day operations of Logitech, with
the support of the Executive Officers. Refer to section 3.6 for a description of the powers and responsibilities of
the Executive Officers. The CEO has, in particular, the following powers and duties:

•

defining and implementing short and medium term strategies;

preparing the budget, which must be approved by the Board of Directors;

reviewing and certifying the Company’s annual report;

appointing, dismissing and promoting any employees of Logitech other than Executive Officers and the
head of the internal audit function;

taking immediate measures to protect the interests of the Company where a breach of duty is suspected
from Executive Officers until the Board has decided on the matter;

carrying out Board resolutions;

reporting regularly to the Chairman of the Board of Directors on the activities of the business;

preparing supporting documents for resolutions that are to be passed by the Board of Directors; and

deciding on issues brought to his attention by Executive Officers.

5. Compensation, Shareholdings and Loans

5.1 Logitech’s General Compensation Policy

Logitech has designed its compensation programs to attract, develop, retain and motivate the high caliber of
executives, managers and staff that is critical to the long-term success of its business. Logitech’s compensation
package is composed of a base salary that is competitive to comparable companies in the industry and region,
periodic cash incentive awards that are based on company performance, and long-term incentive awards that are
comprised of stock options.

Executive Compensation Programs

Logitech’s compensation programs for its Executive Officers are designed to:

•

provide compensation competitive to comparable companies in the industry and region;

provide executives with a competitive compensation that maintains a balance between fixed and
variable compensation and places a significant portion of total compensation at risk;

align executive compensation with shareholders’ interest by tying a significant portion of compensation
to increasing share value; and

20-F

support a performance-oriented environment that rewards superior performance.

An Executive’s compensation includes the following key components:

•

base salary;

short-term incentives (cash bonus programs based on financial performance); and

long-term incentives (stock option awards and employee stock purchase program).

Base Salary

The base salary for Executive Officers is determined on the basis of experience, individual performance, the
average salary levels considered appropriate for comparable positions in the industry and the anticipated value of
the executive’s future contribution to the Company. The Compensation Committee reviews these factors in
approving and recommending to the Board the Executive Officer’s base salary for each fiscal year.

In addition to a base salary, Executive Officers are eligible for the same benefits offered by the Company to
non-executive employees in their jurisdiction of residence. The cost to Logitech of these benefits is reflected in
the compensation of the Executive Officers as disclosed in Section 5.2 below.

LISA

CG-17

Short-Term Incentives

A significant portion of Logitech’s executive cash compensation is variable. The Chairman and the CEO are
eligible for annual bonus incentives based on the financial goals of the entire Company as established by the
Board. Executive Officers, other than the Chairman and the CEO, are eligible for semi-annual bonuses based on
achieving pre-determined financial goals of the Company and/or pre-determined financial goals of the division or
regional entity over which the Executive has responsibility. The bonus plans include a basic reward for achieving
minimum performance targets and an upside for performance exceeding target expectations. The Board of
Directors may authorize additional cash bonus payments based on outstanding performance. The Compensation
Committee reviews and recommends to the Board the bonus targets for each Executive Officer in advance of
each fiscal year.

Long-Term Incentives

Logitech provides for stock option grants as part of its executive compensation package. It does so because
it believes that a portion of executive compensation should be linked to increasing shareholder value. Stock
options have value for an employee only if the Company’s share price increases above the exercise price of the
option and the employee remains employed by the Company for the duration of the option vesting period. As
with base salary, the stock options granted to Executive Officers are reviewed and recommended to the Board by
the Compensation Committee based on grant
individual
levels for comparable positions in the industry,
performance and the anticipated value of the Executive Officer’s future contribution to the Company.

Executive Officers are also eligible to participate in the Company’s Employee Share Purchase Plan, under
which employees may purchase registered shares with up to 10% of their earnings at the lower of 85% of the fair
market value at the beginning or the end of each offering period. There are two offering periods, each consisting
of a six-month period during which payroll deductions of employee participants are accumulated under the share
purchase plan.

The Chief Executive Officer is not present at any deliberations or upon the vote of the Board to approve his

salary or equity compensation.

Non-Executive Director Compensation

The compensation of Logitech’s non-executive Directors is established by the Board Compensation
Committee (refer to section 3.5 above). The Board Compensation Committee reviews aggregate data on
non-executive Director compensation of comparable companies in setting compensation for Logitech’s
non-executive Directors.

Under the Company’s current policy, each non-executive Director receives options to purchase 30,000 of
the Company’s registered shares upon their election to the Board and options to purchase 15,000 registered
shares upon their re-election to the Board. These options are granted at the fair market value at the date of grant
and become exercisable over 3 years in equal annual increments. In addition, non-executive Directors are paid an
annual retainer of $25,000, or CHF 35,000 and receive $2,000, or CHF 2,500 for each board or committee
meeting attended and also for each day of travel to attend board or committee meetings. All Directors are
reimbursed for expenses in connection with attendance at Board and Committee meetings.

Executive Directors do not receive any compensation for their service on the Board of Directors.

granted by Logitech in fiscal year 2006. The remainder of the options were granted to 521 of Logitech’s

share) for all Executive Officers, based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. These numbers are not

Logitech has entered into indemnification agreements with its Directors and Officers. These agreements
indemnify Directors and Officers to the extent permitted by law against expenses and liabilities incurred in legal
proceedings that may arise by reason of their status or service as Directors or Officers. Logitech believes that
these agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified Directors and Officers. At present, there is no
pending litigation or proceeding involving any Director or Officer of Logitech as to which indemnification will
be required or permitted. The Company is not aware of any threatened litigation or proceedings that might result
in a claim for indemnification.

compensation to $3.9 million. Mr. De Luca did not receive any compensation for his service rendered as a
Director.

6. Shareholders’ Participation Rights

6.1 Exercise and Limitations to Shareholders’ Voting Rights

LISA

Each share confers the right to one vote at the General Meeting of Shareholders. There are no limitations to
the number of voting rights that a shareholder or group of shareholders is entitled to exercise, and there are no
preferential voting rights. To exercise its voting rights at the General Meeting of Shareholders, a shareholder
must have registered its shares by the day the Meeting is convened. Refer to section 2.6 for more information on
the registration process.

CG-21

Any shareholder may be represented at a meeting by a person of its choice who need not be a shareholder of
the Company. The power of attorney must be made in writing. The use of the form prepared by the Company
may be required.

There are currently no limitations under Swiss law or in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation restricting

the rights of shareholders outside Switzerland to hold or vote registered shares or Logitech ADSs.

6.2 Shareholders’ Resolutions for which a Particular Majority is Required

In general, the resolutions of the General Meeting of Shareholders are passed with a simple majority of the
votes cast. However, the following resolutions may only be passed with a majority of two-thirds of the votes
represented.

•

change in the Company’s corporate purpose;

creation of shares with privileged voting rights;

restriction of the transferability of shares;

creation of authorized or conditional capital;

capital increases to be paid-in by means of existing reserves, against contributions in kind, or conducted
with a view to the acquisition of specific assets;

grant of special benefits;

suppression or limitation of the shareholders’ preferential subscription right;

change of the registered office of the Company; and

dissolution without liquidation of the Company (merger).

6.3 Convocation of the General Meeting of Shareholders

The Board of Directors generally convenes a General Meeting of Shareholders. The convocation is made in
writing and is sent to each shareholder at the address recorded in the share register at least 20 days prior to the
meeting.

The Company’s share register closes upon convocation of the meeting. Thus, only those shareholders who

are registered in the share register on the day the meeting is convened have the right to vote at the meeting.

One or more shareholders who represent together at least 10% of the share capital of the Company may
demand the Board of Directors convene a meeting. Such demands must be made in writing and received by the
Board of Directors at least 60 days before the date of the proposed meeting.

The Company has received an exemption as a foreign private issuer from compliance with a Nasdaq listing
standard that requires that the quorum for shareholder meetings be at least 33 1⁄ 3% of the outstanding voting
shares. Under Swiss law, public companies do not have specific quorum requirements for shareholder meetings.
Accordingly, Logitech, like most other Swiss public companies, does not observe quorum requirements with
respect to its shareholder meetings. In compliance with Swiss law, Logitech sends an invitation to all of its
shareholders and publishes the notice of the meeting in the Swiss financial press. Also, to encourage attendance,
Logitech holds its Annual General Meeting close to its operations in Switzerland.

6.4 Shareholders’ Right to Place Items on the Agenda of a Meeting

Currently, one or more shareholders who together represent shares representing at least the lesser of (i) one
percent of the share capital or (ii) an aggregate par value of one million Swiss francs may demand that an item be

CG-22

placed on the agenda of a meeting. The minimum shareholding requirement was lowered based on an amendment
to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, approved by Logitech’s shareholders at the Company’s Annual
General Meeting in June 2005.

A request to place an item on the General Meeting agenda must be in writing, describe the proposal and be
received by the Board of Directors at least 60 days prior to the date of the General Meeting. Such requests should
be addressed to: Secretary to the Board of Directors, Logitech International S.A., CH 1143 Apples, Switzerland,
or c/o Logitech Inc., 6505 Kaiser Drive, Fremont, CA 94555, USA.

The Deposit Agreement under which Logitech ADSs are issued has the effect of giving holders of Logitech
ADSs essentially the same voting interest in Logitech as if they were a holder of Logitech registered shares,
rather than Logitech ADSs. However, because The Bank of New York actually owns the Logitech registered
shares underlying the Logitech ADSs, ADS holders must rely on The Bank of New York to exercise the rights of
a shareholder.

6.5 Registration in the Company’s Share Register

Registration into the Company’s share register occurs upon request and is not subject to any condition.

Refer to section 2.6 for more information on the registration process.

7. Mandatory Offer and Change of Control Provisions

7.1 Mandatory Offer
Swiss law requires that any shareholder who acquires more than 33 1⁄ 3% of the voting rights of a Swiss
company whose shares are listed in whole or in part in Switzerland is required to make an offer to acquire all
listed equity securities of the company at a minimum price. Logitech International S.A.’s Articles of
Incorporation do not remove this requirement. The Articles do not increase the participation threshold above
which an offer must be made. Consequently, any person having acquired more than a third of the Company’s
voting rights will be required to make an offer for all outstanding shares of the Company.

20-F

7.2 Change of Control Provisions

Logitech’s Executive Officers generally have Change of Control Severance Agreements with Logitech.
Under the terms of these agreements, if the Executive Officer’s employment is involuntarily terminated or they
are demoted within 12 months after a change in control of Logitech, the executive would receive his or her base
salary, annual and semiannual bonuses, and payment of health benefits for up to a year following the termination,
as well as 100% vesting of all unvested stock options. In the case of a demotion, the Executive Officer would be
required to remain employed for a period of time (generally 12 months) in order to receive these benefits.

There are no agreements providing for payment of any consideration to any non-executive Director upon

termination of his services with the Company.

8. Auditors

8.1 Duration of Mandate and Term of Office of the Independent Auditors

Under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the shareholders appoint the Company’s independent

auditors each year at the Annual General Meeting. Re-appointment is permitted.

LISA

The Company’s Independent Auditors are currently PricewaterhouseCoopers S.A., or PwC, Lausanne
branch, 45, Avenue C.F. Ramuz, P.O. Box 1172, CH-1001, Lausanne, Switzerland. PwC assumed its first audit
mandate for Logitech in 1988. They were reappointed as the Company’s statutory and group auditors in June
2005. Beginning in fiscal year 2006, the responsible principal audit partner has been Miguel Perry.

CG-23

8.2/3 Audit Fees

In addition to the audit services PwC provides with respect to Logitech’s annual audited consolidated
financial statements and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, PwC has provided
non-audit services to Logitech in the past and may provide them in the future. Non-audit services are services
other than those provided in connection with an audit or a review of the financial statements of the Company.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors determined that the rendering of non-audit services by PwC was
compatible with maintaining their independence.

During fiscal year 2006, PwC performed the following non-audit services that were approved by the Audit
Committee: tax planning and compliance advice, advising on other transactions, consultations regarding stock-
based compensation, expatriate tax services and the implementation of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

The following table presents the aggregate fees for professional audit services and other services rendered

by PwC to Logitech in fiscal years 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

(1) Audit fees represent those fees incurred for the indicated fiscal year, regardless of when they were paid.
Audit fees include group and statutory audit fees as well as the reviews of Logitech’s quarterly reports on
Form 6-K.

(2) Audit-related fees represent services provided in implementing the various provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley

Act and consultation on various accounting issues.

(3) Tax fees represent those fees incurred for tax compliance, assistance with tax audits, tax advice and tax

planning.

(4) All other fees represent services provided to Logitech for expatriate and other consulting services.

8.4 Supervisory and Control Instruments

The Company’s Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and non-audit services provided by its Independent
Auditors. This pre-approval must occur before the auditor is engaged. Services provided by the Company’s
Independent Auditors (other than those required to be provided by law) can be approved no more than 6 months
in advance of the services being performed. Services that last longer than a year must be re-approved by the
Audit Committee.

Logitech’s Audit Committee can delegate the pre-approval ability to a single independent member of the
Audit Committee. The delegate must communicate all services approved at the next scheduled Audit Committee
meeting. The Audit Committee or its delegate can pre-approve types of services to be performed by the auditors
with a set dollar limit per the type of service. The Chief Financial Officer is responsible for ensuring that the
work performed is within the scope and dollar limit as approved by the Audit Committee. Management must
report to the Audit Committee the status of each project or service provided by the auditors.

The Company’s Independent Auditors attend all regular meetings of the Audit Committee. On a quarterly
basis, PwC reports on the findings of its audit and/or review work. On an annual basis, the Audit Committee
approves PwC’s audit plan and evaluates the performance of PwC and its senior representatives in fulfilling its

CG-24

responsibilities. Moreover, the Audit Committee recommends to the Board the appointment or replacement of the
external auditor, subject to shareholder approval. Annually, PwC provides a report as to its independence to the
Audit Committee.

Refer to section 3.5 for additional information on the roles and responsibilities of the Audit Committee.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Annual Report on Form 20-F contains forward-looking statements based on beliefs of our management

as of the filing date of this Form 20-F. These forward-looking statements include statements related to:

•

our business strategy for new areas of growth and for building on the Company’s current strengths;

our belief that we are positioned to take full advantage of opportunities in the market for personal
peripheral products;

our business and product plans for fiscal year 2007 and evolving market trends affecting our products;

our expectation that audio, video and advanced remote controls will continue to be the key growth
drivers;

our expectation that new products to be launched later in fiscal year 2007, particularly in the speaker
and cordless categories, will carry higher margins than the products they replace; and

the sufficiency of our cash and cash equivalents, cash generated from operations, and available
borrowings under our bank lines of credit to fund capital expenditures and working capital needs for the
foreseeable future.

Factors that might affect these forward-looking statements include, among other things:

• market acceptance for our products;

•

Exchange Rates

Our registered shares traded on the SWX Swiss Exchange are denominated in Swiss francs while our ADSs
traded on the Nasdaq National Market are denominated in U.S. dollars. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between
the Swiss franc and the U.S. dollar will affect the U.S. dollar equivalent of the Swiss franc price of our registered
shares on the SWX Swiss Exchange and, as a result, will likely affect the market price of our ADSs in the United
States, and vice versa.

Risk Factors

Our operating results are difficult to predict and fluctuations in results may cause volatility in the price of

our registered shares and American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”).

Our revenues and profitability are difficult to predict due to the nature of the markets in which we compete

and for many other reasons, including the following:

• Our operating results are highly dependent on the volume and timing of orders received during the
quarter, which are difficult to forecast. Customers generally order on an as-needed basis and we
typically do not obtain firm, long-term purchase commitments from our customers. As a result, our
revenues in any quarter depend primarily on orders booked and shipped in that quarter. In addition, a
significant portion of our quarterly retail sales can occur in the last month of each quarter, further
increasing the difficulty in predicting quarterly revenues and profitability.

• We must incur a large portion of our costs in advance of sales orders, because we must plan research
and production, order components, and enter into development, sales and marketing, and other operating
commitments prior to obtaining firm commitments from our customers. This makes it difficult for us to
adjust our costs in response to a revenue shortfall, which could adversely affect our operating results.

•

Fluctuations in currency exchange rates can produce an impact on our revenues and profitability
because we report our financial statements in U.S. dollars, whereas we have significant transactions in
other currencies. Furthermore, fluctuations in foreign currencies impact our global pricing strategy
resulting in our lowering or raising selling prices in a currency in order to avoid disparity with U.S.
dollar prices and to respond to currency-driven competitive pricing actions.

Fluctuations in our operating results may cause volatility in the price of our registered shares and ADSs.

If we do not introduce successful products in a timely manner, our business and operating results could

suffer.

The personal peripherals industry is characterized by short product life cycles, frequent new product
introductions, rapidly changing technology and evolving industry standards. As a result, we must continually
introduce new products and technologies and enhance existing products in order to remain competitive.

The success of our products depends on several factors, including our ability to:

•

anticipate technology, market trends and consumer demands;

develop innovative and reliable new products and enhancements in a cost-effective and timely manner;
and

distinguish our products from those of our competitors.

If we do not execute on these factors successfully, products we introduce or technologies or standards that
we adopt may not gain widespread commercial acceptance, and our business and operating results could suffer.
For example, if we do not address the consumer trend toward notebooks by timely developing products to
support the continued growth of the notebook market segment, our sales could be adversely impacted in future
periods.

Our gross margins can vary significantly depending on product mix, customers and other factors.

We have a diversified product portfolio of over 200 different personal peripherals for PCs and other digital
platforms. We sell these products through a worldwide network of domestic and international distributors,
retailers, and OEM customers. Our gross margins vary significantly by product line and customer type, as well as
within product lines.

When the mix of products sold shifts from higher margin product lines to lower margin product lines, or to
lower-margin products within product lines, our overall gross margins and our profitability may be adversely
affected. For example, gross margins in the audio category are lower than the Company’s other core product
categories. Overall gross margins in recent quarters has been adversely impacted in part due to the increase in
audio sales as a percentage of total sales. If audio sales continue to increase as a percentage of total sales, overall
gross margins will be adversely impacted to the extent that gross margin improvements in the audio category, if
any, are unable to offset this decrease.

Similarly, our gross margins are generally lower for sales to OEM customers compared with sales to our
retail customers. Increases in OEM sales or decreases in retail sales relative to total sales may also negatively
impact our gross margins.

LISA

Gross margins can also vary due to consumer demand, competition, product life cycle, new product
introductions, unit volumes, commodity and supply chain costs, and the complexity and functionality of new
product innovations. The impact of the above on gross margins can create fluctuations in operating results, which
may cause volatility in the price of the registered shares and ADSs.

If we do not compete effectively, demand for our products could decline and our business and operating

results could be adversely affected.

Our industry is intensely competitive. It is characterized by short product life cycles, continual performance
enhancements, and rapid adoption of technological and product advancements by competitors in our retail
market, and a trend of declining average selling prices in the OEM market. We continue to experience aggressive
price competition and other promotional activities from our primary competitors and from less-established
brands, and we may choose to adjust prices or increase other promotional activities to improve our competitive
position. We may also encounter more competition if any of our competitors decides to enter other markets in
which we currently operate.

In addition, we have been expanding the categories of products we sell, and entering new markets, such as
the market for programmable remote controls. As we do so, we are confronting new competitors, many of which
have more experience in the categories or markets and have greater marketing resources and brand name
recognition than we have. In addition, because of the continuing convergence of the markets for computing
devices and consumer electronics, we expect greater competition in the future from well-established consumer
electronics companies in our developing categories, as well as future ones we might enter. Many of these
companies have greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than we have.

We expect continued pressure in our retail business, particularly in the terms and conditions that our
competitors offer customers, which may be more favorable than our terms. Future market conditions, product
transitions, and initiatives by our competitors may require us to take actions to increase our customer incentive
programs and could impact our revenues and operating margins.

Corded and Cordless. Microsoft is our main competitor in retail cordless (mice and desktops) and corded
(mice and keyboards) categories. Microsoft’s offerings include a complete line of mice, keyboards and desktops.
Microsoft has significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources, as well as greater
name recognition and a larger customer base. We continue to encounter aggressive pricing practices, promotions,
and channel marketing on a worldwide basis from Microsoft, which will continue to impact our revenues and
margins. We are also experiencing competition and pricing pressure for corded and cordless mice and desktops
from less-established brands, in the lower-price segments, which could potentially impact our market share. The
emerging Notebook peripheral segment is also an area where we face new competitors that have broader
Notebook product offerings, as well as aggressive pricing and promotions.

Microsoft is a leading producer of operating systems and applications with which our mice and keyboards
are designed to operate. As a result, Microsoft may be able to improve the functionality of its mice and
keyboards to correspond with ongoing enhancements to its operating systems and software applications, for
example the expected Vista operating system launch expected in early 2007, before we are able to make such
improvements. This ability could provide Microsoft with significant lead-time advantages. In addition, Microsoft
may be able to offer pricing advantages on bundled hardware and software products that we may not be able to
offer.

Video. Our main competitor in the U.S. for PC web cameras is Creative Labs, which offers a complete line
of PC web cameras. In Europe, our main competitors are Creative Labs and Philips. In view of the rapid growth
of this market, we expect additional competitors, including major players such as Microsoft, to enter this
category in the near future. We continue to encounter aggressive pricing practices, promotions, and channel
marketing on a worldwide basis from Creative Labs, which will continue to impact our revenues and margins.
We are also experiencing ongoing competition from less-established providers of PC web cameras that are
seeking shelf space and increased market share through price competition.

Gaming. Competitors for our

interactive entertainment products include Intec, Mad Catz, Pelican
Accessories and Saitek Industries. Our cordless controllers for PlayStation®2 also compete against corded
controllers offered by Sony. In addition, our cordless controllers for Microsoft Xbox™ are competing against
Microsoft corded controllers.

Audio. Competitors in audio devices vary by product

In the PC, mobile entertainment and
communication platform speaker business, competitors include Altec Lansing, Creative Labs and Bose
Corporation. In the PC and console headset, telephony and microphone business, our main competitors include
Plantronics and its Altec Lansing subsidiary.

line.

Advanced Remote Controls. With our acquisition of Intrigue Technologies in May 2004, we expanded our
product portfolio to include a new line of personal peripheral devices for home entertainment systems. We have
greatly expanded our market share in this business recently. With many companies offering universal remote
controls, our success will likely attract more competition. Our competitors include, among others, Philips,
Universal Remote, Universal Electronics, RCA and Sony.

If we do not continue to distinguish our products, particularly our retail products, through distinctive,
technologically advanced features, design, and services, as well as continue to build and strengthen our brand
recognition and our access to distribution channels, our business could be harmed. If we do not compete
effectively, demand for our products could decline, our gross margins could decrease, we could lose market
share, and our revenues could decline.

If we do not continue to improve our product demand forecasting our business and operating results

could be adversely affected.

We use our forecasts of demand for our products to make decisions regarding investments of our resources
and production levels of our products. Although we receive forecasts from many of our customers, they are not
always obligated to purchase the forecasted demand. Also, actual sales volumes for individual products in our
retail distribution channel can be volatile due to changes in consumer preferences and other reasons. In addition,
our retail products have short product life cycles, so a failure to accurately predict high demand for a product can
result in lost sales that we may not recover in subsequent periods, or higher product costs if we meet demand by
paying higher costs for materials, production and delivery. We could also frustrate our customers and lose shelf
space. Our failure to predict low demand for a product can result in excess inventory, lower cash flows and lower
margins if we are required to reduce product prices in order to reduce inventories.

We have rapidly and significantly expanded the number and types of products we sell, and the geographic
markets in which we sell them, and we will endeavor to further expand our product portfolio and sales reach. The
growth of our product portfolio and our sales markets has increased the difficulty of accurately forecasting
product demand.

We have experienced large differences between our forecasts and actual demand for our products and expect
differences to arise in the future. If we do not continue to improve the accuracy of our forecasts our business and
operating results could be adversely affected.

Our business depends in part on access to third party platforms or technologies, and if the access is
withdrawn, denied, or is not available on terms acceptable to us, or if the platforms or technologies change
without notice to us, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

In recent years we have expanded our product portfolio to include products designed for use with third party
platforms such as the Apple iPod, Microsoft Xbox™, Sony Playstation, and the Sony PSP. The growth of our
business is in part due to sales of these products. However, our business in these categories relies on our access to
the platforms of third parties, which can be withdrawn, denied or not be available on terms acceptable to us. For
example, to date Microsoft has not licensed us, or any other manufacturer, to produce third party wireless
peripherals for use with their new Xbox 360™ gaming console.

LISA

Our access to third party platforms may require our paying a royalty, which lowers our product margins, or
may otherwise be on terms that are not acceptable to us. In addition, the third party platforms or technologies

used to interact with our product portfolio can change without prior notice to us, which can result in our having
excess inventory or lower margins. For example, when Apple changed the connector for the iPod with the release
of the iPod Nano without notice to us, we experienced increased inventories and lower prices than we had
anticipated on headset products we had designed for use with the iPod.

If we are unable to access third party platforms or technologies, or if our access is withdrawn, denied, or is
not available on terms acceptable to us, or if the platforms or technologies change without notice to us, our
business and operating results could be adversely affected.

If we do not successfully introduce and market products for notebook PCs our business and results of

operations may suffer.

We have historically targeted peripherals for the PC platform, a market that is dynamically changing as a
result of the increasing popularity of notebook products over desktop PCs. In our OEM channel, this shift could
adversely affect our sales of OEM mice, which are sold with name-brand desktop PCs. Our OEM mice sales
have historically made up the bulk of our OEM sales, and our OEM sales accounted for 12% and 13% of total
revenues during fiscal year 2006 and 2005. If the desktop PC market continues to experience slower growth or
decline, and if we do not successfully grow our non-mouse OEM business, our OEM revenues could be
adversely affected.

In our retail channels, the impact of the growing popularity of notebook PCs is uncertain, but may result in a
decreased need by consumers for keyboards. This could adversely affect our sales of keyboards and desktops
(mouse and keyboard combination). If we do not suitably adapt our product offerings to successfully introduce
products for the notebook PC, consumers may decrease purchases of our products, which would adversely affect
our business and results of operations.

Our business could be negatively impacted by delays and complications

resulting from our

implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system.

We use enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software in the operation of our business and maintenance of
business and financial data related to our daily operations. We are in the process of upgrading this software, and
we anticipate transitioning to a new version in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. If the upgrade is materially
delayed, or if we are unable to effectively implement the new software, we may be unable to timely or accurately
process or access business and financial information stored on the system, which could adversely impact our
daily operations and the timely reporting of financial results.

We are exposed to increased costs and risks associated with complying with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-

Oxley Act.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that public companies in the United States evaluate
and report on their systems of internal controls over financial reporting. Further, Section 404 requires the
company’s independent public accountants to attest to and report on management’s evaluation of those controls.
As a foreign private issuer, we are not required to comply with the requirements of Section 404 until our fiscal
year ending March 31, 2007. We are currently in the process of documenting and testing our internal controls
over financial reporting to comply with these requirements. We are also in the process of upgrading our ERP
software. Both efforts require substantial time and resources to successfully complete. In addition, the timing of
the ERP implementation has a significant impact on the potential cost of the compliance effort. We have recently
experienced delays in the ERP implementation. If the ERP implementation is further delayed and the time period
available to assess and evaluate internal control effectiveness is shortened, our compliance costs could increase
substantially and our ability to timely complete our evaluation of our internal controls may be impacted.

We have committed substantial time and resources to evaluate and assess the effectiveness of our internal
controls and to implement ERP software. During these processes, we have identified deficiencies and may
identify others in our system of internal controls over financial reporting that may require remediation. Our

evaluation and testing is ongoing, and there can be no assurance that we will not identify further deficiencies that
would require remediation. If we are not able to remediate identified deficiencies in a timely manner that either
alone or together constitute material weaknesses in our internal controls, we will not be able to determine that our
internal controls over financial reporting are effective and comply with Section 404 in a timely manner. This
could result in a negative perception of the reliability of our financial statements and subsequently a decline in
the price of our securities.

Our principal manufacturing operations and third-party contract manufacturers are located in China,

which exposes us to risks associated with doing business in that country.

Our principal manufacturing operations and third-party contract manufacturers are located in China. Our
manufacturing operations in Suzhou, China could be severely impacted by evolving interpretation and
enforcement of legal standards, by strains on Chinese energy, transportation, communications, trade, public
health and other infrastructures, by conflicts, embargoes, increased tensions or escalation of hostilities between
China and Taiwan, and by other trade customs and practices that are dissimilar to those in the United States and
Europe. Interpretation and enforcement of China’s laws and regulations continue to evolve and we expect
differences in interpretation and enforcement to continue in the foreseeable future.

Our Suzhou facilities are managed by several of our key Taiwanese expatriate employees. The loss of these
employees, either voluntarily or as a consequence of deterioration in relations between China and Taiwan, could
diminish the productivity and effectiveness of our Suzhou manufacturing operations.

Further, we may be exposed to fluctuations in the value of the Chinese yuan renminbi (“CNY”), the local
currency of China. In recent years, China has been under international pressure to revalue its currency, which
certain of its trading partners assert is undervalued. In July 2005, the Chinese government restructured the
country’s exchange rate system, pegging the CNY to a basket of currencies rather than just the U.S. dollar. In the
months following the revaluation, the CNY appreciated 2% against the U.S. dollar. While the revaluation
continues to limit the CNY to float within a narrow percentage band each day, we believe that the change to a
more flexible system based on a basket of foreign currencies could lead to a further, gradual rise in the CNY’s
value. Significant future appreciation of the CNY could increase our component and other raw material costs, as
well as our labor costs and could adversely affect our financial results.

We purchase key components and products from a limited number of sources, and our business and
operating results could be harmed if supply were delayed or constrained or if there were shortages of required
components.

We purchase certain products and key components from a limited number of sources. If the supply of these
products or key components were to be delayed or constrained, we may be unable to find a new supplier on
acceptable terms, or at all, or our new and existing product shipments could be delayed, any of which could harm
our business, financial condition and operating results. For example, in the second half of fiscal year 2006 we
were unable to meet demand for our V400 laser cordless mouse for notebooks resulting in lost sales, because of
the inability of a supplier to provide us with a critical component.

Lead times for materials, components and products ordered by us or by our contract manufacturers can vary
significantly and depend on factors such as contract terms, demand for a component, and supplier capacity. From
time to time, we have experienced component shortages. We continue to experience extended lead times on
semiconductors and base metals used in our products. Shortages or interruptions in the supply of components or
subcontracted products, or our inability to procure these components or products from alternate sources at
acceptable prices in a timely manner, could delay shipment of our products or increase our production costs,
which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

LISA

If we do not successfully coordinate the worldwide manufacturing and distribution of our products, we

could lose sales.

Our business requires us to coordinate the manufacture and distribution of our products over much of the
world. We increasingly rely on third parties to manufacture our products, manage centralized distribution centers,
and transport our products. If we do not successfully coordinate the timely manufacture and distribution of our
products, we may have insufficient supply of products to meet customer demand and we could lose sales, or we
may experience a build-up in inventory.

We rely on commercial air freight carriers, ocean freight carriers,

trucking companies and other
transportation companies for the movement of our products. Consequently, our ability to ship products to our
distribution centers could be adversely impacted by shortages in available cargo capacity. The logistics and
supply chain infrastructure in China, where our products are manufactured, has not kept pace with the rapid
expansion of China’s economy, resulting in periodic capacity constraints in the transportation of goods. If we are
unable to secure cost-effective freight resources in a timely manner, we could incur incremental costs to expedite
delivery, which could adversely affect our gross margins, and we could experience delays in bringing our
products to market, resulting in lost product sales or the accumulation of excess inventory. Air and ground
transportation costs remain under upward pressure primarily due to high fuel costs. Further increases in the
worldwide cost of fuel could result in higher transportation costs which could adversely affect gross margins.

A significant portion of our quarterly retail orders and product deliveries generally occur in the last month
of the fiscal quarter. This places pressure on our supply chain and could adversely impact our revenues and
profitability if we are unable to successfully fulfill customer orders in the quarter.

We conduct operations in a number of countries and the effect of business, legal and political risks

associated with international operations could significantly harm us.

We conduct operations in a number of countries. There are risks inherent in doing business in international

markets, including:

•

difficulties in staffing and managing international operations;

compliance with laws and regulations, including environmental laws, which vary from country to
country and over time, increasing the costs of compliance and potential risks of non-compliance;

exposure to political and financial instability, leading to currency exchange losses and collection
difficulties or other losses;

exposure to fluctuations in the value of local currencies;

difficulties or increased costs in establishing sales and distribution channels in unfamiliar markets, with
their own market characteristics and competition, particularly in Latin America, Eastern Europe and
Asia;

changes in value-added tax (“VAT”) or VAT reimbursement;

imposition of currency exchange controls; and

delays from customs brokers or government agencies.

Any of these risks could significantly harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights. Unauthorized use of our technology may result in the

development of products that compete with our products.

Our future success depends in part on our proprietary technology, technical know-how and other intellectual

INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A. History and Development of the Company

Logitech International S.A. was incorporated under the laws of Switzerland in 1981. In 1988, the Company
listed its shares in an initial public offering in Switzerland. In March 1997, the Company sold 4,000,000
registered shares from treasury in a U.S. initial public offering in the form of 4,000,000 American Depositary
Shares (ADSs), which were listed on the Nasdaq National Market. The address of the Company’s registered
office is CH-1143 Apples, Switzerland; and the telephone number is 41-(0)21-800-53-54. The Company has
manufacturing facilities in Asia and offices in major cities in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.

Important Events

During the past few years, Logitech has significantly broadened its product offerings and the markets in
which it sells them. During the same period, the Company’s sales have grown significantly. Most of this growth
has been organic, a result of the Company’s own product and marketing development activities. However, its
business has also grown as a result of a limited number of acquisitions that have expanded the Company’s
business into new product categories.

LISA

Connectix – Web Cameras. In September 1998, the Company acquired the QuickCam® PC web camera
business of Connectix Corporation for $26.2 million in cash, including closing and other transaction costs. The
acquisition was part of the Company’s strategy to pursue new areas of growth and to enter the PC web camera

market. The Connectix business has been integrated into the Company’s video division. The acquisition allowed
the Company to take advantage of new technologies in digital imaging and the growth of the market for PC web
cameras. With the success of its line of PC web cameras, the Company has emerged as a market leader in this
product category.

Labtec – Audio. In March 2001, Logitech acquired Labtec Inc., a publicly traded provider of PC speakers,
headsets and microphones based in Vancouver, Washington, for $73 million in cash and stock, and $3.3 million
in closing and transaction costs. The acquisition strengthened Logitech’s market presence in the audio interface
space and furthered its strategy to move the Company beyond the PC platform and into markets such as mobile
telephony. The Company integrated the Labtec business, and has expanded the Labtec brand to encompass
additional product categories such as mice and web cameras.

Intrigue – Advanced Remote Controls. In May 2004, the Company acquired Intrigue Technologies, Inc., a
privately held provider of advanced remote controls, based in Mississauga, Canada. Under the terms of the
purchase agreement, Logitech acquired all the outstanding shares of Intrigue for $29 million in cash, and $1.6
million in closing and transaction costs. The agreement also provides for deferred payments to Intrigue’s former
shareholders based on the highest net sales from products incorporating Intrigue’s technology during the revenue
measurement period, defined as any consecutive four-quarter period beginning in April 2006 through September
2007. The total deferred payment amount will vary with net sales in the revenue measurement period. The
payment amount would approximate 27% of such net sales at the highest net sales level, although the percentage
could be higher at lower net sales levels. No deferred payments are required if the highest net sales level in the
revenue measurement period is less than $55.0 million. Net sales of remote controls have been increasing in the
recent quarters and, if current sales growth in this category continues, the Company will be obligated to make the
deferred payment. The deferred payment, if any, will be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill. The total
payment amount will not be known until the end of the revenue measurement period. The acquisition was part of
the Company’s strategy to pursue new opportunities in the living room environment, positioning Logitech at the
convergence of consumer electronics and personal computing in the digital living room. The Company has
integrated Intrigue’s business into its existing operations.

Principal Capital Expenditures

Logitech’s capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004 were
$54.1 million, $40.5 million and $24.7 million. During fiscal years 2006 and 2005, capital expenditures were
mainly for construction of a new factory in Suzhou, China as well as investments for information systems
upgrades and normal expenditures for tooling costs. Investment during fiscal year 2004 related to normal
expenditures for tooling costs, machinery and equipment and computer equipment and software. The Company’s
capital requirements are primarily financed through cash flow from operations.

The Company’s principal manufacturing operations are located in Suzhou, China. The Company has
expanded operations in the region with the construction of a new factory that has 30% greater capacity than the
first factory with the potential to double beyond that. Operations were moved to the new facility in the summer of
2005.

Principal Equity Investments

As of March 31, 2006, Logitech had equity investments in various technology companies totaling $36.4
million. During fiscal year 2006, the Company did not make any investments, but recorded an increase in fair
value of one investment based on quoted market prices. During fiscal years 2005 and 2004, the Company made
investments of $.7 million and $15.2 million. In fiscal year 2006, the Company sold or impaired investments
amounting to $1.6 million. The Company did not sell or impair any of its investments in fiscal year 2005. During
fiscal year 2004, the Company sold or impaired investments amounting to $.5 million. The Company accounts
for one investment as available-for-sale securities at fair value and uses the cost method for all other investments.

In July 2003, the Company made a $15.1 million cash investment in the Anoto Group AB (“Anoto”), which
represented approximately 9.5% of Anoto’s outstanding shares as of March 31, 2006. The investment was
subsequently decreased to 5.5% of Anoto’s outstanding shares due to a sale of securities in April 2006. In
connection with this investment, a Logitech executive was elected to the Anoto board of directors. Anoto is a
publicly traded Swedish high technology company from which Logitech licenses digital pen technology. The
license agreement requires Logitech to pay a license fee for the rights to use the Anoto technology and a license
fee on the sales value of digital pen solutions sold by Logitech. Also, the agreement requires Logitech to pay
non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) service fees primarily for specific development and maintenance of Anoto’s
licensed technology.

In prior years and most recently in May 2004, Logitech made cash investments in A4Vision, Inc.
(“A4Vision”) totaling $1.2 million, which represented approximately 4% of A4Vision’s outstanding shares. In
connection with this investment, a Logitech executive was appointed to the A4Vision board of directors. During
fiscal year 2006, the Company determined that a decrease in A4Vision’s value is more than temporary based on a
review of its fair value and impaired the investment. A4Vision is a privately held company from which Logitech
licenses face tracking software. The license agreement requires Logitech to pay a license fee based on the
number of its products sold with A4Vision’s licensed software.

Logitech believes its future lies not only in its strong internal technical resources, but also in partnering with
other industry leaders with complementary technologies that promise to make the interface more productive,
natural and enjoyable.

Technological Innovation

Logitech has long been at the forefront of technological innovation, with a list of more than 75 industry

“firsts” to its name and a patent portfolio of more than 100 patents.

The Company has continually embraced new connectivity technologies and standards. The Company led in
optical sensing technology with the opto-mechanical mouse in 1982. The Company was also among the first to
market a digital still camera in 1991. Logitech demonstrated the first working USB prototype at the Fall Comdex
in 1995. In 2001, Logitech introduced the first cordless optical mouse. With the Cordless Presenter™, the
Company introduced its first Bluetooth personal peripheral and in 2004, with the MXTM1000, the first laser

further reducing power consumption and size, and enhancing the range of operation. In 2005, Logitech included
the Z-wave radio technology in its high end advanced remote controls, to enable simple home automation tasks
based on this emerging connectivity standard. Logitech continues to monitor the connectivity environment to
optimize the user experience when interfacing with digital information.

Retail Brand and Shelf Space

The Company believes the Logitech brand name and industrial designs are recognized worldwide as
symbols of product quality, innovation, ease of use and price performance. The Company enjoys a strong and
growing brand presence in more than 100 countries. During fiscal year 2006, the Company sold 72 million
Logitech-branded products. The Company believes that in the consumer market, brand identity and brand
awareness are important components of the purchase decision, and that as competition intensifies, the ability to
secure shelf space will increasingly become a competitive advantage. Logitech’s brand has enabled the Company
to build an extensive retail distribution network and to obtain this critical shelf space. The strength of this brand
is apparent in the OEM channel as well, where systems manufacturers and integrators, as well as game
publishers, and other partners are choosing to bundle Logitech-branded products with their offerings.

Volume Manufacturing Capability Resulting from Strong OEM Relationships

The Company believes its manufacturing capabilities are a significant competitive advantage. Over the past
11 years the Company has built a significant manufacturing presence in Asia, where its ISO 9000-certified
manufacturing facilities are currently producing more than 60 million units per year. As a result, Logitech has
been able to maintain strong quality process controls and has realized significant cost efficiencies. Further, the
Company expanded its Suzhou operations with the construction of a new factory to provide for additional
production capacity. The new facility has 30% greater capacity than the Company’s first factory with the
potential to double beyond that. The Company’s manufacturing expertise extends beyond production to include
logistical support, just-in-time supply and process engineering.

Logitech’s manufacturing capability has allowed the Company to continue its long-established relationships
with large OEM customers. The Company currently sells to the majority of the world’s largest PC manufacturers,
as well as to most of the next layer of systems manufacturers and system integrators. Because Logitech’s

Logitech is a global company capable of drawing upon the strengths of its global resources, global
distribution system and geographical revenue mix. With manufacturing facilities in Asia, engineering teams in
North America, Europe and Asia, major distribution centers in North America, Europe and Asia, as well as with
sales and marketing offices in major cities worldwide, the Company has access to leading technology, markets,
personnel and ideas from around the world.

LISA

Strength on the Desktop

As it broadens its product portfolio beyond the PC platform, Logitech has also continued to expand its
presence on the PC desktop, with its product portfolio encompassing a broader range of personal peripherals that
people use everyday as they work, communicate and play at their PC. The Company’s personal peripherals bring
together on the desktop a broad variety of products that individuals – business people, home users, gamers and
others – need to make their time on the Internet and time at the computer more productive, comfortable and
enjoyable. As a result, the Company is positioned to offer “one-stop shopping” for peripherals that have been
designed to work seamlessly together.

Industry Overview

Increasingly affordable prices and wider availability of business, consumer, education, and communication
applications have created a very large installed base of personal computers. Logitech believes that the market
penetration of PCs and other information access devices, already high in developed countries, is likely to increase
worldwide.

In addition, continuing growth in processing power and communications bandwidth,

the increased
accessibility of digital content and the pervasive access and use of the Internet, create opportunities for new
applications, new users and dramatically richer interactions between users and digital information.

These developments create new demands by users wanting to take full advantage of this increased
processing power, new applications and new technologies in an intuitive, productive, comfortable and convenient
manner.

Today’s PCs have evolved from productivity tools for word processing into affordable multimedia
appliances or “digital hubs” capable of creating and manipulating vast amounts of graphics, sound and video.
The interface devices sold with most new PCs can be quite limited in the functionality they provide. This is
especially true where the need to offer new personal computers at low prices dictates basic, no-frills peripherals
such as a basic mouse and an alphanumeric keyboard. Logitech believes the expanded capabilities of PCs, and
the large installed base, present a significant opportunity for companies that provide innovative personal
peripheral products for the computer, as basic input devices alone do not fully enable many of the newest
applications.

Therefore, on one hand, PC manufacturers continue to require large volumes of simple personal peripherals.
On the other hand, the after-market (that is, the market for peripheral upgrades and add-ons sold separately from
the basic PC) grows as consumers demand more function-rich personal peripheral tools, and as the PC plays an
increasing role in the new digital lifestyle.

In addition, Logitech believes that trends established in the consumer technology market, such as brand
identity, affordability, ease of installation and use as well as visual appeal, have become important aspects of a
purchase decision when buying a PC and personal peripherals.

Logitech believes similar industry dynamics and personal peripheral device opportunities exist for non-PC
platforms, such as video game consoles, mobile entertainment and communication devices, and home
entertainment systems. As these additional platforms deliver new functionality, increased processing power and
growing communications capabilities, Logitech expects demand to increase for add-on, complementary devices,
connected to these platforms. The product expertise Logitech has developed around the PC platform extends to
these other platforms as well and provides further opportunity for growth and leverage.

Business Strategy

Logitech’s objective is to strengthen its leadership in the growing market for personal peripherals, linking
people to the digital world wherever and whenever they need to access digital information to communicate, learn
and play. The Company has historically served the installed base of PCs by offering innovative personal

peripherals to address the needs of the desktop. While PCs are being used more and more as the digital hub to
access information and communicate, other platforms such as game consoles, mobile phones, mobile
entertainment and communication devices and home entertainment systems are also becoming a rich resource for
people to access information, communicate, listen to music and enjoy an expanding offering of interactive
games.

To achieve the Company’s objective, the key elements of Logitech’s strategy consist of the following:

Technological Innovation

To capitalize on market opportunities for personal peripherals, Logitech recognizes that continued
investment in product research and development is critical to facilitating innovation of new and improved
products and technologies. Beyond updating its existing line of personal peripherals, the Company will continue
to lead the development of new technologies and to create product innovations such as the G7 and G5 Laser
Gaming Mice. In 2005, Logitech included the Z-wave radio technology in its high end advanced remote controls,
to enable simple home automation tasks based on this emerging connectivity standard. Logitech is committed to
meeting customer needs for personal peripheral devices and believes that innovation and product quality are
important elements to gaining market acceptance and strengthening its market leadership.

Manufacturing

To effectively respond to rapidly changing demand and to leverage economies of scale, the Company will
continue its hybrid model of in-house manufacturing and third-party contract manufacturers to supply its
products. Through its high-volume ISO 9000-certified manufacturing operations located in Suzhou, China,
Logitech believes it has been able to maintain strong quality process controls and has realized significant cost
efficiencies. The expansion of its Suzhou operations, which was completed in the summer of 2005, provides for
increased production capacity and greater flexibility in managing product demand. Further, by outsourcing the
manufacturing of certain products, the Company aims to reduce the volatility in production volumes and to
reduce time to market.

Information Technology

Logitech is making investments to upgrade its business applications and information technology systems.
Logitech’s investments in information technology are focused on positioning the Company for future growth by
improving its operational and financial processes to realize cost structure improvements and to effectively
manage the increased complexity of its business through standardization and integration of its IT environments.

Geographic Expansion

Logitech believes that the market penetration for its products is particularly low in developing markets such
as Latin America, Eastern Europe and China. The Company is committing substantial resources to capitalize on
the growth opportunities in these regions, including securing new channel partners, strengthening relationships
with existing partners, expanding its sales force and investing in product and marketing initiatives.

Product Strategy

To capitalize on the many opportunities in the growing digital marketplace, Logitech’s product strategy

LISA

focuses on personal peripherals surrounding three digital environments:

•

The Office Environment – Desktop and Notebook Computers

The Living Room Environment – Game Consoles and Home Entertainment Systems

The Mobile Environment – Notebook Computers, Mobile Entertainment and Communication Platforms,
and Digital Writing

The Office Environment

Logitech has successfully broadened its desktop presence by introducing new, more innovative, high-
performance pointing devices that have gained market acceptance. In addition, Logitech has expanded beyond its
traditional role as a provider of pointing devices for the desktop into a leading brand for video imaging products,
keyboards, PC audio products and control devices for 3D applications such as Adobe Creative Suite and CAD/
CAM. The Company has the ability to introduce an even greater number of essential personal peripherals that
people touch and use every day.

The Living Room Environment

Logitech offers a broad spectrum of products for gaming consoles and PCs, including driving wheels,
cordless gamepads, speakers, audio headsets, keyboards, mice and cameras. With its expertise in force and
vibration feedback, cordless connectivity, voice input and video input, Logitech is enabling a broad range of new

many of its products, Logitech can efficiently leverage its investments for one platform – desktop PC – into other
platforms – game consoles.

The Company has expanded its product portfolio to include a new line of advanced remote controls for
home entertainment. This is part of the Company’s strategy to pursue new opportunities in the living room
environment, positioning Logitech at the convergence of consumer electronics and personal computing in the
digital living room. The Company’s line of advanced remote controls, with Smart State Technology™, provides
simple, intuitive control of even the most elaborate entertainment system.

The Mobile Environment

As digital information and communication are evolving into the mobile environment, the opportunity exists
for Logitech to support a broader set of platforms. Logitech believes that the growing number of users of mobile
phones, notebook computers and mobile entertainment and communication platforms, such as portable digital
music players and gaming devices, will bring additional demand for complementary personal peripherals.
Additionally, new technology provides the ability to digitally capture handwritten notes and messages, and thus
creates further opportunities in the mobile environment. Wherever and whenever people want to access, create or
consume digital information, the need exists for devices that allow users to conveniently access the digital world
in an intuitive and personal way. Logitech plans to support this need in mobile environments, as it does in the
office and in the home environment.

Products

Logitech operates in a single industry segment encompassing the design, development, production,
marketing and support of personal peripheral products. Most of the Company’s products share certain
characteristics such as common customers, common sales channels or common company infrastructure
requirements.

Logitech’s personal peripheral products include input and pointing devices such as corded and cordless
mice, trackballs, and keyboards; headsets and webcams for voice and video communications; interactive gaming
devices for PCs such as joysticks, gamepads and steering wheels; interactive gaming devices and accessories for

3D motion controllers; headsets for mobile phones; and digital writing solutions. The Company’s product
families are summarized below.

Mice and Keyboards

Mice

Logitech offers many varieties of mice, sold through OEM, system builder and retail channels. Most
cordless pointing devices from Logitech use the Company’s proprietary, 27 MHz or 2.4 GHz digital radio

technology to transmit data to the host computer. Optical (Laser or LED) technology has substantially replaced
the ball with a tracking system that works via light, using a light beam to illuminate surfaces on which the mouse
is traveling.

The Company’s introduction of the Logitech MX™1000 Laser Cordless Mouse in 2004 marked an
important milestone: the first laser-based optical system. The nearly singular wavelength of laser light is capable
of revealing much greater surface detail than LED technology, enabling laser mice to track reliably on virtually
any surface – even on tricky polished or wood-grain surfaces. Combining laser with Logitech’s powerful MX
processing engine and Fast RF™ wireless technology, the Logitech MX1000 Laser Cordless Mouse set a new
performance benchmark for responsiveness and accuracy.

Subsequent

to the launch of MX1000 Laser Cordless Mouse, Logitech extended its precision laser
technology. The product line now includes G5 and G7, the MX610 Laser Cordless Mouse for desktop PCs, and
the V400 Laser Cordless Mouse for notebook PCs. The G5 and G7 mice for gamers represent several
performance breakthroughs, including: use of full-speed USB to transmit data at faster rates; 2.4 GHz digital
cordless technology for a stronger wireless connection; 2000 dpi resolution for superior speed; custom weight
tuning for the G5; and swappable, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries for the G7. The MX610 Laser Cordless
Mouse is the first mouse to receive and process wireless communication from the PC, using 2.4 GHz digital
cordless technology and a sophisticated on-board microprocessor to provide message notifications to users. The
V200 Cordless Mouse for notebook PCs features up to a 12-month battery life, a significant milestone for
optimized battery performance in mice.

All of Logitech’s premium retail mice are bundled with Logitech SetPoint® software, enabling users to
program mouse buttons for specific tasks. The Company also sells both corded and cordless mice that are
designed specifically for OEM customers.

Trackballs

Logitech produces several

trackballs for the retail channel. All corded and cordless models use the
Company’s patented Marble® optical sensing technology, which enables reliable, accurate operation without the
need to regularly clean the device to prevent buildup of dust or grease. The Cordless Optical TrackMan®
trackball features a “cruise control” scrolling feature as well as several programmable buttons to enhance
usability.

Keyboards and Desktops

Logitech offers a variety of corded and cordless keyboards and desktops (keyboard-and-mouse
combinations) from the award-winning top-of-the-line diNovo™ Media Desktop™ Laser to the basic Media™
Keyboard.

In 2005, Logitech introduced an enhanced version of the award-winning diNovo Media Desktop with sleek,
ultra-flat styling, a separate MediaPad™, the MX1000 Laser Mouse for Bluetooth, and a new wireless hub
featuring Bluetooth 2.0 Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) that seamlessly integrates other Bluetooth devices with the
PC.

The Company also introduced the Cordless Desktop® MX™5000, featuring a keyboard LCD for instant
feedback and Bluetooth 2.0 EDR wireless technology. Logitech believes that the Logitech Cordless Desktop
MX5000 sets a new performance benchmark for ergonomics, comfort, responsiveness and accuracy. To meet the
needs of people using their computer as a personal media center, Logitech also unveiled a stylish keyboard,
mouse, and media remote, the Cordless Desktop® S 510 Media Remote, offering much of the functionality of a
media PC at a lower cost. The latest LX line of keyboards features a low-profile Zero-Degree Tilt™ design that
brings a new level of comfort and convenience.

LISA

All premium keyboards offer Logitech’s innovative SetPoint™ software, which enables one-touch access to
a variety of common tasks, including launching music software, accessing the Internet, and starting a chat with
your favorite Instant Messenger software.

Voice and Video Communications

PC Headsets and Microphones

Logitech offers a complete line of headsets and microphones designed for PC voice communications (VoIP)
applications, for online gaming, and for speech recognition. At the high end, the Company’s Premium USB
Headset 350 offers a high-performance stereo audio experience with its 40 mm neodymium drivers, a
comfortable fit with cushioned ear pads and adjustable headband, and advanced voice technology with a noise-
canceling microphone that filters out background noise.

Web Cameras

Logitech’s industry-leading QuickCam® family of webcams make it easy for friends and family to keep in
touch by seeing and talking to each other using their computers. The Company works closely with leading
application developers to help deliver the video communications services and software that connect consumers
and create demand for webcams.

In 2005, Logitech introduced the QuickCam Fusion™ webcam, establishing a higher level of consumer
webcam performance with its breakthrough audio, video, and software technologies. With a true 1.3 megapixel
sensor, RightLight™ technology, RightSound™ technology and an integrated microphone, the QuickCam Fusion
webcam improved audio and video performance over previous-generation webcams. The new webcam also
marked the introduction of Logitech’s Video Effects avatars and face accessories, allowing people to transform
themselves into animated characters or don cartoon-like accessories. Subsequently, Logitech extended many of
these technologies into its other high-end webcams, including the award-winning Logitech QuickCam Orbit™
MP, which features a motorized camera head that can follow a user as he or she moves around a room.

Technology

Logitech products are sophisticated systems that combine multiple engineering disciplines – lightweight
radio frequency transmission, optical, mechanical, electrical, acoustical and software – and incorporate both
cognitive and physiological elements in user-centric industrial designs. These systems share common design
elements, including: sensors to detect and encode motion, images, sound or other analog data into electrical
signals; custom ASICs; microcontrollers to convert and process signals received from the sensor; a
communications subsystem to exchange signals with an attached computer or other intelligent host; and a suite of
driver, utility and user interface software modules and Web sites. The Company believes the software modules
and Web support complete a seamless user-centric solution for information input, access and control. Logitech’s
products incorporate the following principal technologies:

RF Technologies and Cordless Product Design

Logitech is a leader in the development of low-power radio frequency (RF) technologies for use over short
distances. The Company is focusing its current cordless development efforts primarily in three RF technology
areas: Fast RF cordless technology, proprietary and non-proprietary 2.4 GHz-based cordless technologies and
Bluetooth® wireless technology, a communications standard with a broad range of applications. Fast RF cordless
technology is designed to provide excellent performance for everyday computing applications with a very long
battery life and mass market price points. 2.4 GHz technology, designed by Logitech especially for game
controllers, satisfies gamers who value high-speed performance. Logitech’s cordless gaming devices, on PC, PS2
and Xbox™ platforms have generated frequent industry and media accolades. Logitech’s proprietary 2.4 GHz
technology is also the technology of choice for mice products which need to achieve small size and high range of
operation. Logitech believes Bluetooth® wireless technology is an enabler of a much wider acceptance of

cordless products in the marketplace. In fiscal year 2006, the Company introduced Cordless Desktop MX 5000
Laser, the first smart desktop taking advantage of Bluetooth 2.0. For its wireless music products, the Company
uses Bluetooth wireless technology with the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP), an emerging standard
for high-quality wireless stereo sound.

Motion Sensing

The Company’s sensors transform analog motion and images into electronic signals. Logitech, with the
patented Marble® technology, was the first company to introduce optical sensing in pointing devices. Optical
motion sensors are developed in partnership with technology suppliers, allowing Logitech to improve the optical
sensing quality, lower the cost, and increase the reliability of its optical mouse products. Similarly, Logitech’s
Web cameras use optical sensors to detect colors, shapes and other image attributes, and to convert these
attributes into electronic signals.

Signal Processing Algorithms

Logitech engineers employ sophisticated signal processing algorithms across many product lines to compute
spatial displacements, enhance color image quality and compress or format data for transmission. For example, in
the Company’s Internet Web cameras, signal-processing algorithms are used for color extraction,
image
enhancement and data compression.

Power Management

The Company’s products use advanced power management,

including techniques to reduce power
consumption when needed. Cables connected to separate power supplies are inconvenient in the case of products
such as corded pointing devices, and impossible in the case of cordless devices. Consequently, the Company
believes low power consumption is an essential product attribute for the consumer marketplace.

Force Feedback

Force feedback adds a real physical sensation to computer and console systems, enabling users to feel
surfaces, bumps, vibrations, textures, inertia, liquids, springs, and many other physical phenomena. This licensed
technology is primarily used in joysticks and steering wheels where game players can experience the actual
physical sensation of being at the controls of a fighter jet or at the wheel of a racing car.

Software

The Company is focusing its software development efforts on enabling efficient PC navigation, expanding
gaming functionality and providing real-time video communication products and services such as video calling
and video instant messaging. Also, the Company has developed software development kits, or SDKs, to enable
support for a variety of peripherals on gaming consoles. These include SDKs for force feedback joysticks and
wheels, mice, keyboards, cameras and headsets. The SDKs are used in many of the top-selling console games
and make it easy for users to leverage the latest features of Logitech’s gaming peripherals. The Company’s line
of Harmony advanced universal remote controls is powered by web-based software that minimizes the amount of
technical knowledge required for users to program and use their remote controls.

Database

Logitech’s acquisition, in 2004, of Intrigue Technologies, Inc. brought with it a large and growing database
of information about consumer technology devices. Information contained in the Harmony database includes rich
sets of characteristics for a large number of consumer devices, ranging from older devices to the latest offerings.
This information helps give users full control of their devices, even if they are not aware of the intricacies of their
home-entertainment devices.

LISA

Audio

The Company’s audio development resources cover a wide range of audio technologies. In speaker systems,
Logitech uses advanced computer-aided design tools for amplifier and printed circuit board design. Sophisticated
laser and PC-based technologies support speaker transducer design. For headsets, in-house engineering and
testing technology ensure high-resolution voice recognition microphones. Computer-aided design and in-house
rapid prototyping technology speed the overall process and help ensure that products meet design and
performance goals.

Research and Development

Logitech believes that continued investment in product research and development is critical to its success.
The Company believes that its international structure provides advantages and synergies to its overall product
development efforts. Logitech’s product research and development activities are mainly carried out at
engineering centers located in Romanel-sur-Morges, Switzerland; Hsinchu, Taiwan; Fremont, California;
Vancouver, Washington; Mississauga, Canada; and Seefeld, Germany.

Logitech’s Swiss engineering center provides the Company with advanced sensing and cordless
technologies. In addition, the Swiss center is a convenient point for gaining access to leading European
technologies. Logitech has been successful in recruiting and retaining top engineering graduates from leading
Swiss universities because it is one of the few personal computer technology companies with research and
development activities in Switzerland.

Through its Taiwanese subsidiary, the Company has established access to key Asian markets, engineering
resources and high-tech manufacturing. Taiwan is a world leader in manufacturing and engineering. In particular,
Taiwan is a world leader in the design and manufacture of semiconductors, notebook computers, scanners, monitors
and related products, and possesses a concentration of companies that specialize in advanced plastic injection blow
molding and tooling. Moreover, the common language of Taiwan and China facilitates the transfer of products from
the Company’s engineering launch site in Taiwan to its high-volume manufacturing site in China.

The location of the Company’s Fremont, California facility allows Logitech access to Silicon Valley’s talent
pool, particularly important in the development of Internet applications, software and video technologies. In
addition, this location in the midst of the world’s leading technology market enables the Company to compile
market intelligence to define and position products and develop key strategic alliances.

Logitech’s Vancouver, Washington engineering center designs and develops the Company’s audio products.
The facility specializes in acoustic research and development, including model and simulation work. Areas of
development cover cordless audio applications, demanding applications for audio input such as voice recognition,
and audio output for PC speakers. Test capabilities include theoretical environments in an anechoic chamber (a
room isolated from external sound), real-world environments for office settings, and pre-compliance testing.

Logitech’s Mississauga, Canada engineering center designs and develops the Company’s web-connected
advanced remote control products. In addition, Logitech’s Canadian engineering center develops and maintains
Logitech’s on-line Smart State database of infrared codes and device characteristics used in programming the
web-connected advanced remotes. All of these remotes are designed to use Logitech’s patented Smart State
Technology™.

The Company’s subsidiary, 3Dconnexion, whose research and development facility is located in Seefeld,
Germany, provides Logitech with its ongoing research in 3D controller devices. The location of the facility
provides Logitech with access to Germany’s leading automotive manufacturers who are also important
3Dconnexion customers. In addition, this facility is in close proximity to the Munich office of the German
Institute of Robotics and Mechatronics, a leading research center in robotics and from which Logitech has
licensed some of its 3D technology.

The Company’s research and development expenses for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004 amounted to
$88.0 million, $73.9 million and $61.3 million. The Company expects to continue to devote significant resources
to research and development to sustain its competitive position.

Marketing, Sales and Distribution

The Company’s retail products are targeted at consumers and businesses, as add-on peripherals for their PC,
gaming console, mobile entertainment and communication device, or home entertainment system. Logitech’s
OEM products are sold to PC manufacturers, who need high-quality, affordable, and functional personal
peripherals in high volumes; and also to console platform manufacturers, game publishers and mobile-technology
vendors.

The primary user markets for Logitech mice, trackballs and keyboards have traditionally been consumers,
small office and home office, or SoHo users, and through its OEM customers, corporate buyers. The primary user
market for Logitech entertainment devices, such as joysticks, gamepads, steering wheels and advanced remote
controls, is consumers. The primary users for Logitech’s audio products are consumers, SoHo, and OEM
customers. The Company’s user markets for its PC web cameras are SoHo users, corporate buyers and

Logitech builds awareness of its products and recognition of its brand through targeted advertising, public
relations efforts, distinct packaging of its retail products, in-store promotions and merchandising, a worldwide
Web site and other efforts. It also acquires knowledge of its users through customer feedback and market
research, including focus groups, product registrations, user questionnaires, primary and multi-client surveys and
other techniques. In addition, manufacturers of PCs and other products also receive customer feedback and
perform user market research, which sometimes result in specific requests to the Company for specific products,
features or enhancements.

Logitech sells through many distribution channels, including distributors, OEMs and regional and national
retail chains, including online retailers. The Company supports these retail channels with third-party distribution
centers located in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. These centers perform final configuration of products
and product localization with local language manuals, packaging, software CDs and power plugs. In addition,
Logitech’s distribution mix includes e-commerce in the U.S. as well as e-commerce capabilities in several
European countries.

In retail channels, Logitech’s direct sales force sells to distributors and large retailers. Its distributor

Manufacturing

The Company’s manufacturing operations consist principally of final assembly and testing. Logitech’s high-
volume manufacturing is located in Suzhou, China. Logitech expanded its Suzhou operations with the
construction of a new factory to provide for additional production capacity to meet future demand. The new
facility has 30% greater capacity than the Company’s first factory with the potential to double beyond that.
Operations were moved to the new facility in the summer of 2005. The Suzhou facilities are designed to allow
production growth as well as flexibility in responding to changing demands for the Company’s products. The
Company continues to focus on improving the efficiency at the Suzhou facilities, including the implementation
of total quality management and total employee involvement programs.

New product

launches, process engineering, commodities management,

logistics, quality assurance,
operations management and management of Logitech’s contract manufacturers occur in Hsinchu, Taiwan,
Suzhou, China and Hong Kong, China. Certain components are manufactured to the Company’s specifications by
vendors in Asia, the United States and Europe. Logitech also uses contract manufacturers to supplement internal
capacity and to reduce volatility in production volumes. In addition, some products, including most keyboards,
certain gaming devices and audio products, are manufactured by third-party suppliers to the Company’s
specifications. Retail product localization with local language manuals, packaging, software CDs and power
plugs is performed at distribution centers in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.

Competition

Logitech’s industry is intensely competitive. It is characterized by short product life cycle, continual
performance enhancements, and rapid adoption of technological and product advancements by competitors in our
retail market and a trend of declining average selling prices in the OEM market. Logitech continues to experience
aggressive price competition and other promotional activities from its primary competitors and from less-
established brands, and the Company from time to time adjusts prices or increases other promotional activities to
improve its competitive position. The Company may also encounter more competition if any of its competitors
decides to enter other markets in which the Company currently operates.

In addition, the Company has been expanding the categories of products it sells, and entering new markets,
such as the market for programmable remote controls. As the Company does so,
is confronting new
competitors, many of which have more experience in the categories or markets and have greater marketing
resources and brand name recognition than it has. In addition, because of the continuing convergence of the
markets for computing devices and consumer electronics, the Company expects greater competition in the future
from well-established consumer electronics companies in its developing categories, as well as future ones it
might enter. Many of these companies have greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than
the Company has.

The Company expects continued pressure in its retail business, particularly in the terms and conditions that
Logitech’s competitors offer customers, which may be more favorable than Logitech’s terms. Future market
conditions, product transitions, and initiatives by the Company’s competitors may require it to take actions to
increase its customer incentive programs and could impact its revenues and operating margins.

Corded and Cordless. Microsoft is the Company’s main competitor in retail cordless (mice and desktops)
and corded (mice and keyboards) categories. Microsoft’s offerings include a complete line of mice, keyboards
and desktops. Microsoft has significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources, as
well as greater name recognition and a larger customer base. The Company continues to encounter aggressive
pricing practices, promotions and channel marketing on a worldwide basis from Microsoft, which will continue
to impact its revenues and margins. Logitech is also experiencing competition and pricing pressure for corded
and cordless mice and desktops from less-established brands,
in the lower-price segments, which could
potentially impact its market share. The emerging Notebook peripheral segment is also an area where we face
new competitors that have broader Notebook product offerings, as well as aggressive pricing and promotions.

Microsoft is a leading producer of operating systems and applications with which Logitech’s mice and
keyboards are designed to operate. As a result, Microsoft may be able to improve the functionality of its mice
and keyboards to correspond with ongoing enhancements to its operating systems and software applications – for
example the expected Vista operating system launch expected in early 2007 – before Logitech is able to make
such improvements. This ability could provide Microsoft with significant lead-time advantages. In addition,
Microsoft may be able to offer pricing advantages on bundled hardware and software products that Logitech may
not be able to offer.

Video. The Company’s main competitor in the U.S. for PC web cameras is Creative Labs, which offers a
complete line of PC web cameras. In Europe, the Company’s main competitors are Creative Labs and Philips. In
view of the rapid growth of this market, the Company expects additional competitors, including major players
such as Microsoft, to enter this category in the near future. Logitech continues to encounter aggressive pricing
practices, promotions and channel marketing on a worldwide basis from Creative Labs, which will continue to
impact revenues and margins. The Company is experiencing ongoing competition from less-established
providers of PC web cameras that are seeking shelf space and increased market share through price competition.

Gaming. Competitors for the Company’s interactive entertainment products include Intec, Mad Catz,
Pelican Accessories and Saitek Industries. Logitech’s cordless controllers for PlayStation®2 also compete against
corded controllers offered by Sony. In addition, the Company’s cordless controllers for Microsoft Xbox™ are
competing against Microsoft corded controllers.

Audio. Competitors in audio devices vary by product line. In the PC and mobile entertainment and
communication platform speaker business, competitors include Altec Lansing, Creative Labs and Bose
Corporation. In the PC and console headset, telephony and microphone business, our main competitors include
Plantronics and its Altec Lansing subsidiary.

LISA

Advanced Remote Controls. With the Company’s acquisition of Intrigue Technologies in May 2004,
Logitech expanded its product portfolio to include a new line of personal peripheral devices for home

entertainment systems. The Company has greatly expanded its market share in this business recently. With many
companies offering universal remote controls, the Company’s success will likely attract more competition. The
Company’s competitors include, among others, Philips, Universal Remote, Universal Electronics, RCA and
Sony.

Refer to the discussion in Item 3D. Risk Factors – “If we do not compete effectively, demand for our

products could decline and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.”

Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights

Intellectual property rights that apply to Logitech’s products and services include patents, trademarks,

copyrights and trade secrets.

The Company holds various United States patents and pending applications, together with corresponding
patents and pending applications from other countries. While Logitech believes that patent protection is
important, the Company also believes that patents are of less competitive significance than factors such as
technological expertise and innovation, ease of use, and quality design. No single patent is in itself essential to
Logitech as a whole. From time to time the Company receives claims that it may be infringing on patents or other
intellectual property rights of others. Claims are referred to counsel, and current claims are in various stages of
evaluation and negotiation. If necessary or desirable, the Company may seek licenses for certain intellectual
property rights. Refer also to the discussion in Item 3D Risk Factors – “We may be unable to protect our
proprietary rights. Unauthorized use of our technology may result in the development of products that compete
with our products.”

To distinguish genuine Logitech products from competing products and counterfeit products, Logitech has
used, registered, and/or applied to register certain trademarks and trade names in the U.S. and in foreign
countries and jurisdictions. Logitech enforces its trademark and trade name rights in the U.S. and abroad. In
addition, the software for Logitech’s products and services is entitled to copyright protection, and the Company
generally requires its customers to obtain a software license before providing them with that software. Logitech
also protects details about its products and services as trade secrets through employee training, license and
non-disclosure agreements and technical measures.

Governmental Regulation

The European Union (“EU”) has adopted the Directive on the Restriction of Use of Certain Hazardous
Substances in Electrical and Electronics Equipment, or RoHS. This directive restricts the placement into the EU
market of electrical and electronic equipment containing certain hazardous materials including, lead, mercury,
cadmium, chromium, and halogenated flame-retardants. RoHS is to take effect beginning July 2006 with a
limited number of exceptions. Most Logitech products are affected by the directive and must be modified to
some extent to be RoHS compliant. Logitech has an active program to ensure compliance with the RoHS
directive and continues to source and introduce the use of RoHS compliant components and manufacturing
methods in order to comply with the requirements of the directive.

Further, the EU has adopted the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive, or WEEE. This
directive requires that producers of electrical goods be financially responsible for specified collection, recycling,
treatment and disposal of covered electrical and electronic products. The original implementation date proposed
by the WEEE Directive for enactment of national legislation by EU member states was August 2004. Producers
are to be financially responsible under the WEEE Directive beginning in August 2005. Producer obligations also
include specified collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of equipment that had been placed in the EU
marketplace prior to August 2005, and has reached its end of life. To date, specific legal requirements have not
been finalized by all member states, with certain member states delaying implementation until late 2006. All
Logitech products are currently covered by the obligations of the WEEE Directive. In those countries which have
enacted legislation, the Company expects to incur costs for managing and recycling historical waste equipment

and make provisions for costs related to future waste. These costs are expected to be based on the Company’s
estimated market share of the total cost, which will depend on a number of factors, including administration,
recycling and treatment costs as well as the commercial cost of recycling.

Similar environmental legislation may be enacted in other geographies, the cumulative impact of which
could be significant. If such legislation is enacted in other countries, Logitech intends to develop compliance
programs as necessary. However, until that time, Logitech is not able to estimate any possible impact.

The effects on Logitech’s business of complying with other government regulations are limited to the cost
of allocation of the appropriate resources for agency fees and testing as well as the time it takes to obtain agency
approvals. The costs and schedule requirements are industry requirements and, therefore, do not represent an
undue burden relative to Logitech’s competitive position. As regulations change, the Company will modify its
products or processes to address these changes.

Seasonality

Sales of Logitech’s retail products are seasonal. Sales are typically highest during the third fiscal quarter,
due primarily to the increased demand for Logitech’s products during the year-end holiday buying season, and to
a lesser extent in the fourth fiscal quarter. Logitech sales in the first and second quarters can vary significantly as
a result of new product introductions and other factors. Accordingly, year-over-year comparisons are more
indicative of variability in the Company’s results of operations than quarter-over-quarter comparisons.

Materials

Logitech purchases some of its products and key components used in the Company’s products from a
limited number of sources. Refer to the discussion in Item 3D Risk Factors – “We purchase key components and
products from a limited number of sources, and our business and operating results could be harmed if supply
were delayed or constrained or if there were shortages of required components.”

Logitech’s U.S. subsidiary has headquarters in Fremont, California in three leased buildings comprised of
approximately 148,000 square feet. These facilities are occupied by Logitech’s Americas headquarters, including
research and development, product marketing, sales management, technical support and administration. The
Company’s Fremont lease expires in March 2013. During fiscal year 2006, the Company signed a lease for an
additional 24,000 square feet in an adjacent building to supplement the space of the currently leased buildings.
The lease also expires in March 2013. The audio business unit is located in 28,700 square feet of leased office
space in Vancouver, Washington. The lease has terms through April 2009. The Company also leases an 80,000
square foot warehouse facility in Vancouver, Washington. The warehouse facility, with a lease term through
April 2006, is no longer being used because the Company has moved all of its North American distribution to a
third-party facility in Memphis, Tennessee.

Logitech’s subsidiary, 3Dconnexion, has leased a 5,500 square foot office in San Jose, California through
December 2007. In Seefeld, Germany, 3Dconnexion has leased 15,000 square feet through the year 2010 for its
European headquarters, research and development, and manufacturing.

Logitech also has sales offices in more than 46 locations in 30 countries. These offices are leased with

various expiration dates from 2006 to 2015.

Worldwide operations and engineering occupy a Company-owned 112,000 square foot facility in Hsinchu,
Taiwan, and includes mechanical engineering, new product
launches, process engineering, commodities
management, logistics, quality assurance, and administration. Personnel in Hsinchu manage distribution of
product throughout Asia through the use of externally administered warehouses in Taiwan, China and Singapore.
Logitech’s high-volume manufacturing is located in Suzhou, China, in a Company-owned 253,700 square foot
building and a leased 91,500 square foot building. The lease on the building expires in July 2008. The Company
expanded its Suzhou operations with the construction of a new factory to provide for additional production
capacity to meet future demand. The new site includes approximately 600,000 square feet of factory space and
includes dormitory space to house the Company’s workforce. The facility initially has 30% greater capacity than
the Company’s first Suzhou factory as well as the potential to double beyond that. Operations at the new facility
commenced in the summer of 2005.

In addition to its distribution centers in Asia, Logitech has major distribution centers in Memphis,
Tennessee and in the Netherlands. The 474,000-square foot facility in Memphis is contracted with a third-party
logistics company that leases and manages the distribution center for Logitech. The Company plans to move with
the third-party logistics company in July 2006 to a new regional distribution facility in South Haven, Mississippi
and extended the arrangement with the management company through December 2006 with an option to renew
annually. The South Haven facility is approximately 550,000 square feet. The Company has two distribution
centers in the Netherlands; the Company’s main European distribution location is located in Venray, Netherlands
and a smaller facility is located in Venlo, Netherlands. Both facilities are contracted with warehouse management
companies that lease and manage the distribution centers for Logitech. The Venray warehouse is approximately
183,400 square feet and the arrangement with the management company is through December 2006. The Venlo
facility is approximately 80,000 square feet, and the arrangement with the management company is through
December 2007. Additionally,
the Company has a 45,500-square foot distribution center in Zalaegerzeg,
Hungary, which is also contracted with a warehouse management company. Logitech also contracts with various
distribution services throughout the world for additional warehouses in which the Company stores inventory.

Logitech believes that the Company’s manufacturing and distribution facilities are adequate for its ongoing

needs and continues to evaluate the need for additional facilities to meet anticipated future requirements.

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

This Annual Report on Form 20-F to shareholders contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these
statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth above in Item 3D “Risk Factors,” and below in
Item 11 “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.”

Overview

Logitech is a leading global technology company and earns revenues and profits from the sale of personal
peripherals that serve as the primary physical interface between people and their personal computers and other
digital platforms. For the PC, the Company’s products include mice, trackballs, keyboards, gaming controllers,
multimedia speakers, headsets and webcams. For digital music devices,
the Company’s products include
speakers and headphones. For gaming consoles, the Company offers a range of controllers, audio products and
other accessories. In addition, Logitech offers wireless music solutions for the home and advanced remote
controls for home entertainment systems. Logitech also offers digital writing solutions, 3D control devices, and
headphones for mobile phones. The Company sells its products to both original equipment manufacturers
(“OEMs”) and to a network of distributors and resellers (“retail”).

The Company’s markets are extremely competitive. Some of our competitors are well established with
substantial resources, others are less established and compete at
lower price points. These markets are
characterized by aggressive promotional and pricing practices, short product life cycles, rapidly changing
technology and evolving customer demands. In order to remain competitive, continued investment in product
research and development is critical to driving innovation with new and improved products and technologies.
Logitech is committed to meeting customer needs for personal peripheral devices and believes innovation and
product quality are important elements to gaining market acceptance and strengthening market leadership. The
Company has historically targeted peripherals for the PC platform, a market that is dynamically changing as a
result of consumer trends toward notebooks. Logitech remains focused on strengthening its market leadership in
the PC market with the introduction of products that support the continued growth of the notebook market
segment. The Company has also expanded into peripherals for other platforms, including video game consoles,
mobile phones, home entertainment systems and most recently, mobile entertainment and digital music systems.

Over the last several years, Logitech has laid a foundation for long-term growth, expanding and improving
its supply chain operations, investing in product development and marketing, delivering innovative new products
and pursuing new market opportunities beyond the PC platform. During this time, the Company has significantly
broadened its product offerings and the markets in which it sells them. Although most of this expansion has been
organic, the Company’s business has also grown as a result of a limited number of acquisitions that have
expanded the Company’s business into new product categories.

In fiscal year 2006, revenues increased 21% to $1.8 billion and net income increased 21% to $181.1 million
reflecting the results of the Company’s continued investment in new product categories and diversification of the
existing product portfolio. Audio and video retail sales were the key growth categories contributing to the
Company’s fiscal 2006 financial performance and are expected to continue driving growth in the near term. Sales
of advanced remote controls have contributed to the increased revenue and present growth potential for the
future.

The Company’s focus in fiscal year 2007 is to capture the growth opportunities in the business and improve
profitability. Audio, video and advanced remote controls will continue to be the key growth drivers. Cordless
desktops and mice are also expected to return the cordless category to solid growth as a result of focused product
and marketing initiatives. New products to be launched later in fiscal year 2007, particularly in the speaker and
cordless categories, are expected to carry higher margins than the products replaced as a result of the Company’s
product development efforts. Further, Logitech is investing in business applications and information technology
upgrades. These investments are necessary to position Logitech for future growth by improving operational and

financial processes to realize cost structure improvements and to more effectively manage increased marketplace
and business complexity. Also, the new manufacturing facility in Suzhou, China provides increased production
capacity and greater flexibility in fulfilling product demands.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and in compliance with relevant Swiss law
requires the Company to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenue and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Logitech considers an accounting estimate critical if: (i) it requires management to make judgments and
estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain; and (ii) is important to an understanding of the Company’s
financial condition and operating results.

Management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these critical accounting estimates
with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. The Company believes the following accounting estimates
are most critical to its business operations and to an understanding of its financial condition and results of
operations, and affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated
financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Customer Programs

The Company records accruals for customer programs and incentive offerings, including certain rights of
return, price protection, consumer rebates, volume-based incentives and other customer marketing programs. The
estimated cost of these programs is accrued in the period the Company sells the product or commits to the
program as a reduction to revenue or as an operating expense, if Logitech receives an identifiable benefit from
the customer and can reasonably estimate the fair value of that benefit. Significant management judgments and
estimates must be used to determine the cost of these programs in any accounting period.

The Company grants limited rights of return for certain products. Estimates of expected future product
returns are based on analyses of historical return trends by customer and by product, inventories owned by and
located at distributors and retailers, current customer demand, current operating conditions, and other relevant
customer and product information. Return trends are influenced by the timing of the sale, the type of customer,
operational policies and procedures, product sell-through, product quality issues, sales levels, market acceptance
of products, competitive pressures, new product introductions, product life cycle status, and other factors. Return
rates can fluctuate over time.

The Company has agreements with most of its retail customers that contain terms allowing price protection
credits to be issued in the event of a subsequent price reduction. The Company’s decision to make price
reductions is influenced by channel inventory levels, product life cycle stage, market acceptance of products, the
competitive environment, new product introductions and other factors. Credits are issued for units that customers
have on hand at the date of the price reduction. Reserves for the estimated amounts to be reimbursed to
qualifying customers are established quarterly based on planned price reductions and analyses of qualified
inventories on hand with distributors and retailers.

Certain incentive programs, including consumer rebates, require management to estimate the number of
customers who will actually redeem the incentive based on historical experience and the specific terms and
conditions of particular programs. Estimated costs of consumer rebates and similar incentives are accrued when
the Company commits to the program.

The Company offers volume rebates to its distribution and retail customers and records reserves for such
rebates at the time of shipment. Estimates of required reserves are determined based on consideration of
historical experience, anticipated volume of future purchases, and inventory levels in the channel.

The Company also enters into cooperative marketing arrangements with most of its distribution and retail
customers allowing customers to receive a credit equal to a set percentage of their purchases of the Company’s
products for various marketing programs. The objective of these programs is to encourage advertising and
promotional events to increase sales of the Company’s products. Accruals for the estimated costs of these
marketing programs are recorded based on the contractual percentage of product purchased in the period the
Company recognizes revenue.

The Company regularly evaluates the adequacy of its accruals for customer programs and incentive
offerings. Future market conditions and product transitions may require the Company to take action to increase
such programs. In addition, when the variables used to estimate these costs change, or if actual costs differ
significantly from the estimates, the Company would be required to record incremental reductions to revenue or
increased operating expenses. If, at any future time, the Company becomes unable to reasonably estimate the cost
of customer programs and incentive offerings, recognition of revenue might be deferred until products are sold to
end-users, which would adversely impact revenue in the period of transition.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company sells its products through a domestic and international network of distributors, retailers and
OEM customers. Logitech generally does not require any collateral from its customers. However, the Company
seeks to control its credit risk through ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and by
purchasing credit insurance on U.S. and European retail accounts receivable balances.

The Company regularly evaluates the collectibility of its accounts receivable and maintains allowances for
doubtful accounts. The allowances are based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of specific
customer accounts, including their credit worthiness and financial condition, as well as the Company’s historical
experience with bad debts and customer deductions, receivables aging, current economic trends and geographic
or country-specific risks.

As of March 31, 2006, three customers represented 14%, 13% and 10% of total accounts receivable. The
customers comprising the ten highest outstanding trade receivable balances accounted for approximately 60% of
total accounts receivable as of March 31, 2006. A deterioration of a significant customer’s financial condition
could cause actual write-offs to be materially different from the estimated allowance. If any of these customers’
receivable balances should be deemed uncollectible or if actual write-offs are higher than historical experience,
the Company would have to make adjustments to its allowance for doubtful accounts, which could result in an
increase in the Company’s operating expenses.

Inventory Valuation

The Company must order components for its products and build inventory in advance of customer orders.
the Company’s industry is characterized by rapid technological change, short-term customer

Further,
commitments and rapid changes in demand.

The Company records inventories at the lower of cost or market value and records write-downs of
inventories which are obsolete or in excess of anticipated demand or market value. A review of inventory is
performed each period that considers factors including the marketability and product life cycle stage, product
development plans, component cost trends, demand forecasts and current sales levels. Inventory exposures are
identified by comparing inventory on hand and on order to forecasted sales over the next six, nine and twelve
month periods. Inventory on hand which is not expected to be sold or utilized based on review of forecasted sales
and utilization is considered excess, and the Company recognizes the write-off in cost of sales at the time of such
determination. At the time of loss recognition, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established and
subsequent changes in facts and circumstances would not result in an increase in the cost basis. If there were an
abrupt and substantial decline in demand for Logitech’s products or an unanticipated change in technological or
customer requirements, the Company may be required to record additional write-downs which could adversely
affect gross margins in the period when the write-downs are recorded.

LISA

Accounting for Income Taxes

Logitech operates in multiple jurisdictions and its profits are taxed pursuant to the tax laws of these
jurisdictions. The Company’s effective tax rate may be affected by the changes in or interpretations of tax laws in
any given jurisdiction, utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards, changes in geographical mix
of income and expense, and changes in management’s assessment of matters such as the ability to realize
deferred tax assets. As a result of these considerations, the Company must estimate income taxes in each of the
jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves estimating actual current tax exposure together with
assessing temporary differences resulting from different treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes.
These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in the consolidated balance
sheet. The Company must then assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future
taxable income, and to the extent that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance is established for any amounts
the Company believes will not be recoverable. Establishing or increasing a valuation allowance increases income
tax expense in such period, while releasing a valuation allowance reduces income tax expense or increases
additional paid-in capital in certain circumstances in such period.

Significant management judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, the deferred
tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against the net deferred tax assets. Logitech has
recorded a valuation allowance at March 31, 2006 due to uncertainties related to its ability to utilize some of the
deferred tax assets before they expire. The valuation allowance is based on estimates of future taxable income by
jurisdiction in which the Company operates and the period over which the deferred tax assets will be recoverable.
In the event that actual results differ from these estimates or the estimates are adjusted in future periods, the
Company may need to release a valuation allowance or establish an additional valuation allowance which could
materially impact the Company’s financial position and results of operations in the period when the valuation
allowances are adjusted.

In addition, the Company is subject to examination by various taxing authorities. The Company believes it
has adequately provided in the financial statements for additional taxes that it estimates may be required to be
paid as a result of such examinations. If the payment ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the reversal of the tax
liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period the Company determines the liabilities are
no longer necessary. If a final tax assessment exceeds the Company’s estimate of tax liabilities, an additional
charge to expense will result. See Note 10—“Income Taxes” for further discussion.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as investments, property, plant and equipment, and goodwill
and other intangible assets for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amount of these assets
might not be recoverable. Factors considered as important which could require it to review an asset for
impairment include the following:

•

significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results;

significant changes in the manner of its use of the acquired assets or the strategy for its overall business;

significant negative industry or economic trends;

significant decline in its stock price for a sustained period; and

its market capitalization relative to net book value.

Recoverability of investments, property, plant and equipment, and other intangible assets is measured by
comparing the projected undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate with its carrying amount. If an
asset is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows.

Recoverability of goodwill is measured at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit’s carrying
amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit
exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of
impairment loss. While the Company has fully integrated all of its acquired companies, it continues to maintain
discrete financial information for 3Dconnexion and accordingly determines impairment for the goodwill acquired
with the 3Dconnexion acquisition at the entity level. All other acquired goodwill is evaluated for impairment at a
total enterprise level.

In determining fair value, the Company considers various factors including estimates of future market
growth and trends, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods over which its assets will be utilized, and other
variables. The Company calculates its fair value based on the present value of projected cash flows using a
discount rate determined by management to be commensurate to the risk inherent in the Company’s current
business model. To date, the Company has not recognized any impairment of its goodwill. Logitech bases its fair
value estimates on assumptions it believes to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” which requires companies to expense the fair value of
employee stock options and other forms of share-based compensation. Accordingly, SFAS 123R eliminates the
use of the intrinsic value method to account for share-based compensation transactions as provided under
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25. Under SFAS 123R, the Company is required to determine the
the amortization method for
to be used to value share-based payments,
appropriate fair value model
compensation cost and the transition method to be used at the date of adoption. In addition, the adoption of SFAS
123R will require additional accounting related to tax benefits on employee stock options and for shares issued
under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 123R in the first
quarter of fiscal year 2007. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, “Share-Based Payment,” which provides the SEC’s interpretation of
SFAS 123R and its views regarding the valuation of share-based payments for public companies. The Company
is evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123R and SAB 107 and expects stock-based compensation expense of
$16 to $19 million, net of income taxes, to be reflected in the Company’s net income for fiscal year 2007.

Logitech’s cordless and corded product families include the Company’s mice, trackballs, keyboards and
desktops; video is comprised of PC webcams; audio includes multimedia speakers and headset products for the
PC, and mobile entertainment and communication platforms; gaming includes console and PC peripherals; and
other is primarily comprised of the Company’s advanced remote control, as well as 3D input device offerings.

Net sales in fiscal year 2006 increased significantly from the prior year due to continued growth in demand
for the Company’s retail and OEM products. Retail sales growth was largely attributable to strong demand for
the audio product line and increased demand for video and remote control products. OEM sales also returned to
growth due to increased demand for mice. Approximately 50% of the Company’s sales were denominated in
currencies other than the U.S. dollar in fiscal year 2006.

Retail Cordless. Sales of the Company’s retail cordless products in fiscal year 2006 decreased 1%
compared with fiscal year 2005, while units sold increased 14%. New cordless optical and notebook mice
products launched during the year, including the V200 cordless notebook mouse, generated higher sales and units
sold, increasing cordless mice sales by 8% and units by 21%. Cordless desktop sales declined 9% while units
increased 5%, due to lower sales in the mid-range and high-end segments of the product line, offset by strong
growth in the mass-market segment.

Retail Corded. Sales of corded products increased 6% while units grew 13% compared with the prior year.
Sales of corded mice increased 4% and units increased 11%, driven largely by the popularity of the MX518
gaming mouse and the G5 laser mouse. In addition, sales of corded desktops increased by 63% with units
growing 64% due to the growth in sales of low-end corded desktops.

Retail Video. Reflecting the increased use of video communications over the Internet, retail video sales
grew 36% and units increased 53% compared with the prior year. Demand was strong across all categories,
especially for lower-priced mass-market webcam products and certain high-end products, such as the QuickCam
Fusion webcam.

Retail Audio. Retail audio sales increased 112% and units increased 85% compared with the prior year. The
significant growth came primarily from higher sales of speakers and PC headsets during fiscal year 2006. The
Company’s speakers were the most significant contributors to the growth, with sales increasing 116% and units
increasing 111%, reflecting continued strength in PC speakers throughout the year, as well as the success of the
portable speakers for iPod. Sales of headsets for iPod and MP3 also contributed to the significant growth, with
sales more than doubling and unit sales increasing 76%.

Retail Gaming. Sales in retail gaming declined 7% while units sold grew 21% compared with the prior
year. Sales of console gaming peripherals were down 9%. Last year, the Company achieved significant sales and
unit shipments from cordless controllers for the Playstation®2 and Xbox™ platforms and from console steering
wheels, reflecting the popularity of a newly-launched racing game. In fiscal 2006, sales of console peripherals
decreased due to the anticipated transition to new console platforms and, in particular for wheels, by the lack of
popular new driving games. Units sold for console gaming peripherals grew 45%, driven by accessories for the
Playstation Portable (“PSP”). The market demand for PC gaming products remains stagnant and, as a result, sales
of PC gaming peripherals declined 3% with units sold decreasing 3%.

Retail Other. Sales in the other retail category increased 110% compared with the prior year, primarily due

to accelerating market demand for Harmony remotes.

Retail Regional Performance. The Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific regions all achieved strong retail
sales growth in fiscal year 2006. Retail sales in the Americas region grew 27%, driven by the significant growth
in the audio category, as well as strong sales in video and remote control products. European retail sales
increased 21%, largely due to strong sales growth in audio and video products. Remote controls also ramped up
strongly in Europe. In Asia Pacific, retail sales grew 21%, led by strong sales of corded and audio products.

OEM. OEM revenues increased 11% compared with fiscal year 2005 and represented 12% of total sales in
fiscal year 2006, the same proportion as last year. OEM units increased 16%, mainly driven by strong growth in
corded mice sales to PC manufacturers, supported by increased OEM sales of gaming products. The timing and
size of the opportunities for Logitech’s OEM gaming products are difficult to predict, as they are sensitive to
trends in these industries, including customer preferences, the popularity and nature of games introduced, and the
products with which our products may be bundled.

Gross profit consists of net sales, less cost of goods sold which includes materials, direct labor and related
overhead costs, costs of manufacturing facilities, costs of purchasing components from outside suppliers,
distribution costs and impairment of inventories.

The increase in gross profit resulted from the net sales increase over the prior year. The decline in the
Company’s gross margin is primarily due to the higher percentage of audio sales in fiscal year 2006, representing
19% of total net sales compared with 11% in fiscal year 2005. Margins in the audio category, although improved
from the prior year, are lower than the Company’s other product categories. Gross margin also reflected a return
to more sustainable margin levels in a number of product categories from the higher margins experienced last
year.

Marketing and Selling

Marketing and selling expense consists of personnel and related overhead costs, corporate and product

marketing, promotions, advertising, trade shows, customer and technical support and facilities costs.

LISA

Higher marketing and selling expense in absolute dollars and as a percentage of sales compared with the
prior year reflects increased customer marketing development initiatives, higher personnel costs and higher
outside commission expenses to support higher retail sales levels and expanded territorial coverage. The
Company increased its market penetration in developing markets, such as Latin America, Eastern Europe and
China, by securing new channel partners, strengthening relationships with existing partners, and investing in

additional marketing initiatives. In addition, the Company’s operating expenses benefited from the strengthening
of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Swiss franc due to exchange rate changes on translation to the U.S.
dollar financial statements.

Research and Development

Research and development expense consists of personnel and related overhead costs, contractors and outside
consultants, supplies and materials, equipment depreciation and facilities costs, all associated with the design and
development of new products and enhancements of existing products.

The increase in research and development expense reflects the Company’s commitment to continued
investments in research and product development efforts. Investments in audio, video and remote control groups
were the most significant contributors to the increase, driven by higher headcount and related personnel costs, as
well as higher prototyping expenses. The impact of exchange rate changes on translation to the Company’s U.S.
dollar financial statements was not material.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel and related overhead and facilities costs

for the finance, information systems, executive, human resources and legal functions.

General and administrative expense increased primarily as a result of increased headcount to support the
business growth. In addition, costs incurred for Sarbanes-Oxley consultation and implementation and for process
changes occurring in the Company contributed to the higher general and administrative expense. The Company’s
operating expenses also benefited from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro and Swiss franc
due to exchange rate changes on translation to the U.S. dollar financial statements.

Interest income was higher compared with the prior year due to higher invested cash balances and higher
including lower
returns earned on invested amounts. Interest expense decreased due to lower interest,
amortization of the accreted redemption premium, as a result of conversion of the convertible bond during the

The increase in net foreign currency exchange gains in fiscal year 2006 primarily resulted from a one-time
gain of $3 million related to an exchange of the Company’s Euro currency for U.S. dollars. The Company does
not speculate in currency positions, but is alert to opportunities to maximize its foreign exchange gains. The
Company also impaired an investment and recorded a gain on the sale of another investment.

Overall sales growth in fiscal year 2005 reflected retail sales growth across all major product categories,
with console gaming and cordless mice contributing most significantly. The decline in OEM sales reflected the
absence of sales to Sony of the EyeToyTM camera and the USB headsets for the Playstation®2. Approximately
53% of the Company’s sales were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar in fiscal year 2005. While
the Euro was stronger compared with the prior year, the benefit from the strengthening Euro in fiscal year 2005
was less than the prior year. Any benefit did not take into account the impact that currency fluctuations had on
the Company’s pricing strategy resulting in lowering or raising selling prices in one currency to avoid disparity
with U.S. dollar prices and to respond to currency-driven competitive pricing actions. The Company believed
that currency fluctuations did not have a material impact on its revenue growth in fiscal year 2005.

LISA

Retail Cordless. Cordless mice sales drove the majority of the growth in the retail cordless category, with
sales increasing 69% and unit shipments up 59% over the prior year. The introduction of the laser cordless mouse
in September 2004 made a significant contribution to this growth. Also, demand for Logitech’s cordless optical
mice for notebooks, including the high-end V500 contributed to the growth. Demand for the media cordless

mouse and value cordless offerings also contributed to higher sales during fiscal year 2005. Cordless desktops
sales were also higher due to strong demand for the Company’s new LX desktop family. Contributions from the
Company’s value desktop offerings and the cordless desktop for notebooks further drove growth in the cordless
desktop category.

Retail Corded. The migration by consumers to cordless peripherals impacted sales for the Company’s
corded products. The largest component of the corded product category, corded mice, was essentially flat and
unit shipments were lower by 1% compared with fiscal year 2004. Sales of corded keyboards declined 7% while
unit shipments increased 11%. The decrease in sales, despite an increase in unit shipments, reflected a shift in the
product mix.

Retail Video. Demand for video products was strong due to the increased popularity of PC webcams
spawned by the growth of instant messaging and broadband connectivity. Sales of PC webcams grew 32% and
unit shipments increased 53% due to demand for both the Company’s premium high-end products and lower
priced mass-market offerings. The increase in video sales was mitigated by the absence of the Company’s
dualcam products, a category Logitech discontinued late in fiscal year 2004.

Retail Audio. Sales of audio products were higher by 33% in fiscal year 2005 and unit shipments increased
12% compared with the prior fiscal year. The growth in both sales and units in the audio category was driven
primarily by strong demand for the Company’s Logitech branded PC speaker line. In particular, the success of
the X family series, a mid-range speaker line, made a major contribution to this growth. The Company also
benefited from higher PC headset sales. To a lesser extent, higher sales of headsets for mobile phones and the
Xbox™ also contributed to higher sales in the audio category.

Retail Gaming. Sales of retail gaming peripherals grew considerably in fiscal year 2005 compared with
fiscal year 2004. The growth came primarily from the Company’s console gaming peripherals, with sales
increasing 172% and unit shipments growing 219% compared with a year ago. The most significant growth came
from sales of cordless gamepads for the Playstation®2 and Xbox™ platforms. Sales of console steering wheels
also showed growth and contributed to the increase in console gaming. Sales of gaming peripherals for the PC
grew at a slower rate, increasing 21% with unit shipments higher by 24%. The growth in PC gaming peripherals
was driven by higher sales for both PC gamepads and steering wheels.

Retail Regional Performance. Retail sales in the Company’s Americas region grew 30% in fiscal year
2005, significantly faster than the 6% growth in fiscal year 2004. Strong demand for cordless, video, audio and
console gaming products contributed to the increased sales, partially offset by reductions in sales of corded and
PC gaming products. Contribution from the remote control line also benefited sales in the region. In Europe,
retail sales also showed growth, increasing 32% compared with fiscal year 2004. While the Euro was stronger
compared with the prior year, the benefit from the strengthening Euro in fiscal year 2005 was less than in fiscal
year 2004. Further, this benefit did not take into account the impact that currency fluctuations had on the
Company’s pricing strategy resulting in lowering or raising selling prices in a currency to avoid disparity with
U.S. dollar prices and to respond to currency-driven competitive pricing actions. European sales growth occurred
across all core product categories in fiscal year 2005, with the most significant growth coming from sales of
cordless mice, PC webcams, headsets and console gaming. Retail performance in Asia Pacific declined 3% in
fiscal year 2005, due to significantly lower sales in China, partially offset by higher sales in Japan.

OEM. OEM revenues declined 24% in fiscal year 2005 compared with fiscal year 2004 and represented
13% of total sales compared with 20% of total sales in the prior year. The most significant driver of the decline
was the absence of sales to Sony of peripherals for the Playstation®2, which included USB headsets and the
EyeToyTM camera. While corded products were the most significant component of OEM sales, demand for OEM
cordless products continued to grow. In particular, sales of OEM cordless mice grew considerably compared with
fiscal year 2004.

The increase in gross profit correlated with increased revenues during the same period. The increase in gross
margin primarily reflected a shift in the mix between retail and OEM sales, as well as improved retail gross
margins. As a percentage of total sales, OEM revenues were significantly lower in fiscal year 2005, representing
13% of total sales compared to 20% in the prior year. Overall, retail margins improved in fiscal year 2005
compared with fiscal year 2004. In particular, gross margins for the Company’s video products improved most
significantly, primarily as a result of the Company’s exit from the dualcam category. Gross margin in fiscal year
2005 improved in spite of increases for certain material and fuel costs. During fiscal year 2005, the Company
incurred incremental costs in connection with the introduction and phase-in of a large number of retail products,
which included significant freight costs to expedite delivery of products to meet higher than expected customer
demand.

Marketing and Selling

Higher marketing and selling expense in fiscal year 2005 in absolute dollars and as a percentage of sales
compared with the prior year reflects increased investments in marketing and sales for expanded territory
coverage,
to strengthen brand awareness across all geographies and to support higher retail sales levels.
Correlating with the higher sales during the year, expenses incurred for commissions and marketing development
initiatives with customers were higher than the prior year. Personnel costs were also higher due to increased
headcount for expanded territory coverage for certain key markets, including China, Eastern Europe and the retail
mass channel in the United States. The impact of exchange rate changes on translation to the Company’s U.S.
dollar financial statements, particularly from the stronger Euro and Swiss franc relative to the U.S. dollar, also
contributed to the increase.

LISA

Research and Development

To support the development of a broader product portfolio, the Company expanded its research and
development staff in fiscal year 2005. Higher personnel costs contributed most significantly to the increased
expense. Investments in product development focused on the Company’s cordless, audio and advanced remote

control product programs. The impact of exchange rate changes on translation to the Company’s U.S. dollar
financial statements, particularly from the stronger Swiss franc relative to the U.S. dollar, also contributed to the
increase compared with the prior year.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense increased in fiscal year 2005 primarily as a result of higher personnel
costs due to increased headcount to support the growth of the Company’s business. Also, costs incurred for
Sarbanes-Oxley consultation and implementation, investments to upgrade business applications and information
technology systems, and legal costs related to patent
infringement claims inherited with the Company’s
acquisition of Intrigue contributed to higher general and administrative spending in fiscal year 2005. The impact
of exchange rate changes on translation to the Company’s U.S. dollar financial statements, particularly from the
stronger Euro and Swiss franc relative to the U.S. dollar, also contributed to the increase compared with the prior
year.

The provision for income taxes consists of income and withholding taxes. During the third quarter of fiscal
year 2004, the Company released $13.4 million of its valuation allowance on specific deferred tax assets,
primarily as a result of achieving sustained profitability in certain tax jurisdictions. Additionally, a reassessment
of its tax position resulted in an adjustment of the Company’s effective income tax rate to 15% in the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2004 from 20% in prior periods. This was primarily due to changes in the geographic mix
of income. As a result of the release of its valuation allowance and the adjustment of its effective income tax rate,
the Company’s provision for income taxes in fiscal year 2004 was 9%. Excluding the impact of the $13.4 million
valuation allowance released in the third quarter, the effective tax rate for fiscal year 2004 would have been 18%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Balances, Available Borrowings, and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2006, net working capital was $407.9 million, compared with $452.7 million at March 31,
2005. The decrease in working capital was primarily due to a significant decrease in cash and cash equivalents,
partially offset by the increases in accounts receivable and inventory.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $245.0 million at March 31, 2006, a decrease of $96.3 million from
March 31, 2005. The Company used $241.4 million to repurchase shares under the share buyback program and
$54.1 million for capital expenditures, including investments for information system upgrades, construction of
the new factory in Suzhou, China, and normal expenditures for tooling costs. The use of cash was partially offset
by $152.2 million of cash provided by operating activities and $49.2 million in proceeds from the sale of shares
under the Company’s employee option and share purchase plans.

The Company’s normal short-term liquidity and long-term capital resource requirements are provided from
three sources: cash flow generated from operations, cash and cash equivalents on hand and borrowings, as
needed, under its credit facilities. The Company has credit lines with several European and Asian banks totaling
$153.6 million as of March 31, 2006. As is common for businesses in European and Asian countries, these credit
lines are uncommitted and unsecured. Despite the lack of formal commitments from its banks, the Company
believes that these lines of credit will continue to be made available because of its long-standing relationships
with these banks. As of March 31, 2006, $139.6 million was available under these facilities. There are no
financial covenants under these lines of credit with which the Company must comply.

LISA

During fiscal year 2006, the Company’s operating activities generated net cash of $152.2 million compared
with $213.7 million in the prior year. Stronger business results were offset by increased accounts receivable

balances, resulting from significantly higher sales in fiscal year 2006 and an increase in DSO. Although partially
offset by higher collections, accounts receivable increased to $289.8 million at March 31, 2006, compared with
$229.2 million last year. In addition, the Company increased its inventory levels and purchases to respond to the
sales increases in fiscal year 2006. At March 31, 2006, inventory was $196.9 million compared with $176.0
million at March 31, 2005. The increase was predominantly in finished goods, intended to ensure sufficient
supply on hand to meet demand. Increased operating expenses also affected cash flow from operating activities
in fiscal year 2006. The Company invested in additional personnel, marketing and product initiatives, and
infrastructure improvements to support the expanding sales base.

The Company’s operating activities generated net cash of $213.7 million during fiscal year 2005 compared
with $166.5 million in the prior year. The increase in cash flow generated from operations was due to higher
sales and better management of outstanding receivables. Also contributing to improved cash from operations
were refunds for value-added taxes from the Chinese government related to certain calendar year 2003 claims.
Partially offsetting the increase in cash flow from operations was increased spending for inventory purchases and
for operating expenses. The increase in inventory in fiscal year 2005 reflected the Company’s anticipation of
product demand by key retail accounts and raw material buffer stock required to manage shortages or
interruptions in component supplies. Also, cash flows from operations were impacted by increased operating
expenses, which included higher personnel costs, spending for marketing and product development initiatives
and investments in infrastructure improvements.

During fiscal year 2006, the Company’s purchases of property, plant and equipment were primarily for
construction of the new factory in Suzhou, China, information system upgrades, and normal expenditures for
tooling. The Company also invested participant deferrals of $1.5 million from its management deferred
compensation plan in life insurance contracts. In addition, the Company received proceeds from the sale of an
investment.

The Company’s purchases of property, plant and equipment in fiscal year 2005 were primarily normal
expenditures for tooling costs, machinery and equipment, and computer equipment and software. Capital
expenditures also included the cost of information system upgrades and construction of a new factory in Suzhou,
China. In connection with the acquisition of Intrigue Technologies in May 2004, the Company paid net cash of
$29.8 million, acquiring all of Intrigue’s outstanding shares. Also, the Company made other equity investments
of $.6 million, primarily for funding in A4Vision, Inc., a privately held company from which Logitech licenses
face tracking software used in its PC webcams.

During the year ended March 31, 2004, the Company used cash of $24.7 million to acquire property, plant
and equipment, primarily for tooling and computer equipment purchases. Also, the Company used cash of
$15.5 million to invest in two technology companies, $15.1 million of which was invested in the Anoto Group
AB, a Swedish high technology company from which Logitech licenses digital pen technology.

Cash used in financing activities during fiscal year 2006 included treasury stock repurchases of 6,138,000
shares, totaling $241.4 million pursuant to the Company’s buyback programs. The buyback program announced
in April 2004 authorized the purchase of up to CHF 250 million (approximately $200 million based on exchange
rates at the date of announcement). The buyback program announced in June 2005 authorized the purchase of up
to CHF 300.0 million (approximately $235.0 million based on exchange rates at the date of announcement).
Proceeds included $49.2 million from the sale of 3,533,000 shares under the Company’s employee option and
share purchase plans and $5.2 million from short-term borrowing in Japanese yen, to benefit from low interest
rates and to offset exposures in yen-denominated assets. During fiscal year 2006, all of the Company’s
convertible bonds were converted into a total of 5,448,693 Logitech registered shares through delivery of
treasury shares which had no cash impact on financing activities.

Cash used in financing activities during fiscal year 2005 included treasury stock repurchases of 5,550,000
shares, totaling $134.5 million pursuant to the Company’s buyback program announced in April 2004. Debt
repayments totaling $4.5 million primarily related to the Company’s Swiss mortgage loan that matured in April
2004. Proceeds totaling $46.0 million were realized from the sales of shares pursuant to the Company’s
employee option and share purchase plans.

Cash used in financing activities during fiscal year 2004 included treasury stock repurchases totaling $79.2
million and repayment of debt obligations of $1.3 million. The Company completed purchases under its buyback
program announced in February 2003, purchasing 3,068,472 shares for $47.1 million. Also, pursuant to a new
program announced in October 2003, authorizing the purchase of up to CHF 40 million (approximately $32
million based on exchange rates at the date of announcement) of Logitech shares, the Company completed the
purchase of 1,330,000 shares for $32.1 million. The Company realized cash proceeds of $31.4 million from the
sale of shares pursuant to the Company’s employee option and share purchase plans in fiscal year 2004.

Cash Outlook

LISA

The Company’s working capital requirements and capital expenditures could increase to support future
expansion of Logitech operations. Future acquisitions or expansion of the Company’s operations may be
significant and may require the use of cash.

The program expires at the Company’s 2008 Annual General Meeting at the latest. Under this program, the
Company repurchased 4.2 million shares for $174.6 million during the year ended March 31, 2006. The approved
amount remaining under this program at March 31, 2006 is CHF 76.1 million ($58.3 million based on exchange
rates at March 31, 2006). The Company plans to continue repurchasing shares in fiscal year 2007 under this
program.

Also in fiscal year 2007, the Company plans to continue investing in tooling and other manufacturing and

operating infrastructure, particularly in the Asia Pacific region.

In May 2004, the Company acquired Intrigue Technologies, Inc., a privately held provider of advanced
remote controls. The purchase agreement provides for deferred payments to Intrigue’s former shareholders based
on the highest net sales from products incorporating Intrigue’s technology during the revenue measurement
period, defined as any consecutive four-quarter period beginning in April 2006 through September 2007. The
total deferred payment amount will vary with net sales in the revenue measurement period. The payment amount
would approximate 27% of such net sales at the highest net sales level, although the percentage could be higher
at lower net sales levels. No deferred payments are required if the highest net sales level in the revenue
measurement period is less than $55.0 million. Net sales of remote controls have been increasing in recent
quarters and, if current sales growth in this category continues, the Company will be obligated to make the
deferred payment. The deferred payment, if any, will be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill. The total
payment amount will not be known until the end of the revenue measurement period.

The Company believes that its cash and cash equivalents, cash flow generated from operations, and
available borrowings under its bank lines of credit will be sufficient to fund capital expenditures and working
capital needs for the foreseeable future.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

As of March 31, 2006, the Company’s outstanding contractual obligations and commitments included:
(i) amounts drawn on its credit lines, (ii) equipment financed under capital leases, (iii) facilities leased under
operating lease commitments, and (iv) purchase commitments and obligations. The following summarizes
Logitech’s contractual obligations and commitments at March 31, 2006 (in thousands):

Arrangements” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Lines of Credit

The Company’s line of credit is denominated in Japanese yen and is due on demand.

Operating and Capital Leases

The remaining terms on the Company’s non-cancelable operating leases expire in various years through

2015. The Company had minimal commitments on capital leases as of March 31, 2006.

Purchase Commitments – Inventory

The Company has fixed purchase commitments for inventory of $128.6 million as of March 31, 2006.
Inventory purchase commitments are made in the normal course of business and are to contract manufacturers
and other suppliers. Although open purchase commitments are considered enforceable and legally binding, the
terms generally allow the Company the option to reschedule and adjust its requirements based on the business
needs prior to the delivery of the purchases. The purchase commitments for inventory are expected to be fulfilled
within one year.

Purchase Obligations

Purchase obligations represent an estimate of all open purchase orders and contractual obligations for capital
and other expenditures, for which the goods or services are not received. These purchase obligations are
primarily related to commitments for manufacturing equipment and software, as well as consulting, marketing
and advertising arrangements. Although open purchase orders are considered enforceable and legally binding, the
terms generally allow the Company the option to cancel, reschedule, and adjust its requirements based on the
business needs prior to the delivery of goods or performance of services.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities whereby the Company has
financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments or other contingent arrangements that
expose it to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation under a variable interest in an
unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to the Company.

Guarantees

The Company has guaranteed the purchase obligations of some of its contract manufacturers to certain
component suppliers. These guarantees have a term of one year and are automatically extended for one or more
years as long as a liability exists. The amount of the purchase obligations of these manufacturers varies over
time, and, therefore, the amounts subject to the Company’s guarantees similarly vary. At March 31, 2006, the
amount of these outstanding guaranteed purchase obligations was approximately $1.3 million. Logitech does not
believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any amounts
will be required to be paid under these guarantee arrangements.

Indemnifications

The Company indemnifies certain of its suppliers and customers for losses arising from matters such as
intellectual property rights and safety defects, subject to certain restrictions. The scope of these indemnities
varies and may include indemnification for damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. No
amounts have been accrued for indemnification provisions as of March 31, 2006. The Company does not believe,
based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any amounts will be
required to be paid under its indemnification arrangements.

B. Related Party Transactions

In connection with the Company’s investment in the Anoto Group AB, a Logitech executive was elected to

licenses digital pen technology. The license agreement requires Logitech to pay a license fee for the rights to use
the Anoto technology and a license fee on the sales value of digital pen solutions sold by Logitech. Also, the
agreement includes non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) service fees primarily for specific development and
maintenance of Anoto’s licensed technology. During fiscal year 2006, expenses incurred for license fees to
Anoto were $.5 million. Expenses incurred for license fees and NRE service fees to Anoto were $.7 million in
fiscal year 2005.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

A. Consolidated Statements and Other Financial Information

Please refer to Item 18 “Financial Statements” and pages F-1 through F-25 of our Consolidated Financial
Statements. In addition, for more information regarding our results of operations, please refer to Item 5
“Operating and Financial Review and Prospects.”

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, Logitech becomes involved in claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary
course of its business. The Company is currently subject to several such claims and legal proceedings and intends
to defend against them vigorously. However, there can be no assurance that our defenses will be successful, or
that any judgment or settlement in any of these lawsuits or claims would not have a material adverse impact on
the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Further, because of technological changes in the computer and consumer electronics industries, current
extensive patent coverage granted to third parties, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is possible
certain components of our products or our business methods may unknowingly infringe existing patents of third
parties. The Company has from time to time been notified that it may be infringing certain patents or other
intellectual property rights of others. Pending and future litigation and disputes arising over patent infringement
claims, or over commercial matters, or other litigation involving us, whether as plaintiff or defendant, regardless
of outcome, may result in significant diversion of our management and technical resources, result in costly
litigation, cause product shipment delays, or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, any of
which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

Dividends

Under Swiss law, a corporation pays dividends upon a vote of its shareholders. This vote typically follows
the recommendation of the corporation’s board of directors. Although the Company has paid dividends in the
past, Logitech’s board of directors announced in 1997 its intention not to recommend to shareholders any
payment of cash dividends in the future in order to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and
expansion of the business. In more recent years, the Company has also used retained earnings to repurchase its
shares.

B. Significant Changes

offerings, share dividends or warrant dividends in the event that Logitech is unable or chooses not to register
these securities under U.S. securities laws and cannot rely on an exemption from registration. Logitech is not
currently planning any rights offering or to issue any share or warrant dividends, or any similar transaction.
Logitech may choose to do so in the future and there can be no assurance that it will be feasible to include U.S.
persons in the transaction. If Logitech does issue these types of securities in the future, it may issue them to the
Bank of New York, as Depositary under its ADS facility, which may sell the securities for the benefit of the
holders of Logitech ADSs. There can be no assurance as to the value, if any, the Depositary would receive upon
the sale of these securities.

There are no legislative or other legal provisions currently in effect in Switzerland or arising under
Logitech’s Articles of Incorporation restricting the export or import of capital, or that affect the remittance of
dividends, interest or other payments to non-resident holders of Logitech securities. Cash dividends payable in
Swiss francs on shares and ADSs may be officially transferred from Switzerland and converted into any other
convertible currency. There are no limitations imposed by Swiss laws or Logitech’s Articles of Incorporation on
the right of non-Swiss residents to hold or vote the shares or ADSs.

E. Taxation

The following is a summary of certain Swiss tax matters that may be relevant with respect to the acquisition,

ownership and disposition of registered shares or ADSs.

This summary addresses laws in Switzerland currently in effect, as well as the 1997 Convention (entered
into force on December 1997) between the United States of America and the Swiss Confederation for the
Avoidance of Double Taxation with Respect to Taxes on Income (the “Treaty”), both of which are subject to
change (or changes in interpretation), possibly with retroactive effect.

For purposes of the Treaty and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), United States
holders of ADSs are treated as the owners of the registered shares corresponding to such ADSs. Accordingly, the
Swiss tax consequences discussed below also generally apply to United States holders of registered shares.

Swiss Taxation

Gain on Sale

Under Swiss law, a holder of registered shares or ADSs who (i) is a non-resident of Switzerland, (ii) during
the taxable year has not engaged in a trade or business through a permanent establishment within Switzerland and
(iii) is not subject to taxation by Switzerland for any other reason, will be exempted from any Swiss federal,
cantonal or municipal income or other tax on gains realized during the year on the sale of registered shares or
ADSs.

Stamp, Issue and Other Taxes

Switzerland generally does not impose stamp, registration or similar taxes on the sale of registered shares or
ADSs by a holder thereof unless such sale or transfer occurs through or with a Swiss securities dealer (as defined
in the Swiss Stamp Duty Law).

Withholding Tax

Under Swiss law, any dividends paid in respect of registered shares will be subject to the Swiss Anticipatory
Tax at the rate of 35%, and the Company will be required to withhold tax at this rate from any dividends paid to a
holder of registered shares. Such dividend payments may qualify for refund of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax by
reason of the provisions of a double tax treaty between Switzerland and the country of residence or incorporation
of a holder, and in such cases such holder will be entitled to claim a refund of all or a portion of such tax in
accordance with such treaty.

The Swiss-U.S. tax treaty provides for a mechanism whereby a United States resident or United States
corporations can generally seek a refund of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax paid on dividends in respect of registered
shares, to the extent such withholding exceeds 15%.

ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk

Market risk represents the potential for loss due to adverse changes in the fair value of financial instruments.
As a global concern, the Company faces exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates and
interest rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material
adverse impact on the Company’s financial results.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates

The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk as it transacts business in multiple foreign
currencies, including exposure related to anticipated sales, anticipated purchases and assets and liabilities
denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Logitech transacts business in over 30 currencies
worldwide, of which the most significant to operations are the Euro, British pound sterling, Swiss franc (“CHF”),
Japanese yen, Chinese yuan renminbi (“CNY”), Taiwanese dollar and Mexico peso. With the exception of its
operating subsidiaries in China, which use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency, Logitech’s international
operations generally use the local currency of the country as their functional currency. Accordingly, unrealized
foreign currency gains or losses resulting from the translation of net assets denominated in foreign currencies to
the U.S. dollar are accumulated in the cumulative translation adjustment component of other comprehensive loss
in shareholders’ equity.

The table below provides information about the Company’s underlying transactions that are sensitive to
foreign exchange rate changes, primarily assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional
currency, where the net exposure is greater than $.5 million at March 31, 2006. The table below represents the
U.S. dollar impact on earnings of a 10% appreciation and a 10% depreciation of the functional currency as
compared with the transaction currency (in thousands):

Long currency positions represent net assets being held in the transaction currency while short currency
positions represent net liabilities being held in the transaction currency. In July 2005, the Chinese government
restructured the country’s exchange rate system, pegging the CNY to a basket of currencies rather than just the
U.S. dollar. In the months following the revaluation, the CNY appreciated 2% against the U.S. dollar. The
Company’s principal manufacturing operations are located in China, with much of its component and raw
material costs transacted in CNY. However, the functional currency of its Chinese operating subsidiary is the
U.S. dollar as its sales and trade receivables are transacted in U.S. dollars. To hedge against potential significant

appreciation of the CNY, the Company has transferred a portion of its cash investments to CNY accounts. At
March 31, 2006, net assets held in CNY totaled $100.2 million. While the revaluation continues to limit the CNY
to float within a narrow percentage band each day, the Company believes that the change to a more flexible
system based on a basket of foreign currencies could lead to a further, gradual rise in the CNY’s value.

foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding for

From time to time, the Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against exposure
to changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to forecasted inventory purchases by subsidiaries. These
forward contracts are denominated in the same currency as the underlying transactions. The Company does not
use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2006, the notional
amounts of
forecasted inventory purchases were
$13.6 million. These forward contracts generally mature within three months. Deferred realized gains totaled
$.2 million at March 31, 2006 and are expected to be reclassified to cost of goods sold when the related inventory
is sold. If the U.S. dollar had appreciated by 10% as compared with the hedged foreign currency, an unrealized
gain of $1.3 million in the foreign exchange forward contract portfolio would have occurred. If the U.S. dollar
had depreciated by 10% as compared with the hedged foreign currency, a $1.4 million unrealized loss in the
foreign exchange forward contract portfolio would have occurred.

Interest Rates

Changes in interest rates could impact the Company’s anticipated interest income on its cash equivalents
and interest expense on variable rate short-term debt. The Company analyzed its interest rate exposures to assess
the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates. Based on the results of these analyses, a 100 basis point
decrease or increase in interest rates from the March 31, 2006 and March 31, 2005 period end rates would not
have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 14. MATERIAL MODIFICATIONS TO THE RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS AND USE

OF PROCEEDS

On July 5, 2000, a two-for-one stock split was effected for holders of registered shares and ADSs. At that

time, each ADS represented one-tenth of a registered share.

In August 2001, the Company completed a ten-for-one stock split for shares traded on the SWX Swiss
Exchange. ADSs traded on the Nasdaq National Market were not affected. As a result, the ratio of ten ADSs to
one registered share changed to a new ratio of one ADS to one registered share.

On June 30, 2005, a two-for-one stock split was effected for holders of registered shares and ADSs.

ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 20-F, the Company carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures
as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this
evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that its disclosure
controls and procedures are effective as of March 31, 2006 to provide reasonable assurance that information
required to be disclosed in filings and submissions under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized,
and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Controls

During the period covered by this report, no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting have occurred that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting.

Mr. Kee-Lock Chua, Mr. Frank Gill and Ms. Monika Ribar, each of whom meets the independence requirements
of the Nasdaq National Market listing standards and the rules and regulations of U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Board affirmatively determined that Mr. Gill, Mr. Bengier and Ms. Ribar are audit committee
financial experts. Refer also to the information in Exhibit 15.1 under Section 3.5 “The Functioning of the Board
of Directors – Audit Committee.”

REPORT OF THE GROUP AUDITORS TO THE GENERAL MEETING OF
LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A., APPLES,
SWITZERLAND

As Group auditors, we have audited the consolidated financial statements of Logitech International S.A. and
its subsidiaries, set out on pages F-3 to F-24, consisting of the consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2006 and
2005, the consolidated statements of income, of cash flows and of changes in shareholders’ equity for the years
ended March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 and the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Board of Directors of Logitech
International S.A. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on
our audits. We confirm that we meet the Swiss legal requirements concerning professional qualification and
independence.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Swiss Auditing Standards and with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

In our opinion the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of Logitech International S.A. and its subsidiaries at March 31, 2006 and 2005 and the
results of operations and their cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and comply with Swiss law.

We recommend that the consolidated financial statements submitted to you be approved.

LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — The Company:

Logitech International S.A. designs, manufactures and markets personal peripherals for PCs and other
digital platforms. The Company’s products include webcams, mice, trackballs, and keyboards for the PC;
interactive gaming controllers, multimedia speakers, headsets and headphones for the PC and for gaming
consoles; headsets for mobile phones; headsets, headphones and speakers for mobile entertainment and
communication platforms; advanced remote controls; digital writing solutions; and 3D control devices. The
Company sells its products to both original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and to a network of distributors
and resellers.

Logitech was founded in Switzerland in 1981, and in 1988 listed its registered shares in an initial public
offering in Switzerland. In 1997, the Company sold shares in a U.S. initial public offering in the form of
American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) and listed the ADSs on the Nasdaq National Market. The Company’s
registered office is located in Apples, Switzerland. The Company has manufacturing facilities in Asia and offices
in major cities in North America, Europe and Asia Pacific.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Logitech and its subsidiaries. All
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements are
presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.
GAAP”) and comply with Swiss law. Certain prior year balance sheet amounts have been reclassified to conform
to the current year presentation.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on March 31. Interim quarters are thirteen-week periods, each ending on a
Friday. For purposes of presentation, the Company has indicated its quarterly periods as ending on the month
end.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales and expenses. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

Foreign Currencies

The functional currency of the Company’s operations is primarily the U.S. dollar. To a lesser extent, certain
operations use the Euro, Swiss franc, Taiwanese dollar and Japanese yen as their functional currencies. The
financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar are
translated to U.S. dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities and using monthly average
rates for revenues and expenses. Cumulative translation gains and losses are included as a component of
shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Gains and losses arising from transactions
denominated in currencies other than a subsidiary’s functional currency are reported in other income (expense),
net in the statement of income.

LISA

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

•

evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and the customer;

delivery has occurred and title and risk of loss transfer to the customer;

F-7

LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

•

the price of the product is fixed or determinable; and

collectibility of the receivable is reasonably assured.

Revenues from sales to distributors and authorized resellers are recognized net of estimated product returns
and expected payments for customer programs and incentive offerings, including price protection, consumer
rebates, volume-based incentives and other customer marketing programs. Expected future product returns are
estimated, and periodically adjusted, based on analyses of historical trends by customer and by product,
distributor and retailer inventory levels and other factors, and are recorded as a reduction of revenue. Estimates
of the cost of price protection programs are recorded based on planned price reductions and units held by
qualifying customers. The costs of consumer rebates are estimated based on historical experience and the specific
terms and conditions of the incentive, and are recorded at the time the incentive is offered. Volume rebates are
recorded at the time of shipment based on historical experience and other factors. The costs of customer
marketing programs are contractual in nature and are estimated and periodically adjusted based on levels of
customer product purchases.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $144.2 million, $125.1 million and $82.1
million in fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004. Advertising costs are recorded as either a marketing and selling
expense or a deduction from revenue. Advertising costs reimbursed by the Company to a customer must have an
identifiable benefit and an estimable fair value in order to be classified as an operating expense. If these criteria
are not met, the cost is classified as a deduction from revenue.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or

less to be cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial

instruments that potentially subject

the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist
principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash
equivalents with various financial institutions to limit exposure with any one financial institution.

The Company sells to large OEMs, distributors and key retailers and, as a result, maintains individually
significant receivable balances with such customers. As of March 31, 2006, three customers represented 14%,
13% and 10% of total accounts receivable. As of March 31, 2005, three customers represented 14%, 12% and
11% of total accounts receivable. The Company’s OEM customers tend to be well-capitalized, multi-national
companies, while distributors and key retailers may be less well-capitalized. The Company manages its accounts
receivable credit risk through ongoing credit evaluation of its customers’ financial condition and by purchasing
credit insurance on U.S. and European retail accounts receivable. The Company generally does not require
collateral from its customers.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Allowances for doubtful accounts are maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the
Company’s customers to make required payments. The allowances are based on the Company’s regular

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed on a first-in, first-out basis. The
Company records write-downs of inventories which are obsolete or in excess of anticipated demand or market
value based on a consideration of product life cycle stage, technology trends, product development plans,
component cost trends and assumptions about future demand and market conditions.

Investments

Investments consist of companies in which Logitech owns less than a 20% interest. In accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities,” investments with a quoted market value are classified as available-for-sale. Such
investments are reported at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses included as a separate component of
shareholders’ equity. Unrealized losses are charged against income when a decline in fair value is determined to
be other than temporary. Realized gains and losses upon the sale or disposition of such investments are based on
the average cost of the specific investments sold.

The cost method is used for all other investments which are adjusted for any decrease in value deemed to be

other than temporary in nature.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Additions and improvements are capitalized, and
maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalizes the cost of software developed for
internal use in connection with major projects. Costs incurred during the feasibility stage are expensed, whereas
costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized.

With the exception of tooling, depreciation is provided using the straight-line method. Plant and buildings
are depreciated over estimated useful lives from ten to twenty-five years, equipment over useful lives from three
to five years, software development over useful lives of three to five years and leasehold improvements over the
life of the lease, not to exceed five years. Tooling is depreciated over the forecasted life of the tool, not to exceed
one year from the time it is placed into production. Depreciation for tooling is calculated based on the forecasted
production volume and adjusted quarterly based on actual production. When property and equipment is retired or
otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are relieved from the accounts and the net gain or
loss is included in the determination of net income.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets principally include goodwill, acquired technology,

trademarks and
customer contracts. Intangible assets with finite lives, which include acquired technology, trademarks and
customer contracts, are recorded at cost and amortized on the straight-line method over their useful lives ranging
from four to ten years. Intangible assets with indefinite lives, which include goodwill, are recorded at cost and
evaluated at least annually for impairment.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as investments, property and equipment, and intangible assets,
for impairment whenever events indicate that the carrying amounts might not be recoverable. Recoverability of
investments, property and equipment, and other intangible assets is measured by comparing the projected
undiscounted net cash flows associated with those assets to their carrying values. If an asset is considered
impaired, it is written down to fair value, which is determined based on the asset’s projected discounted cash
flows or appraised value, depending on the nature of the asset. Goodwill is evaluated for impairment at least
annually.

Income Taxes

The Company provides for income taxes using the liability method, which requires that deferred tax assets
and liabilities be recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from
differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. In estimating future tax consequences, expected
future events are taken into consideration, with the exception of potential tax law or tax rate changes.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents
and accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and current maturities of long-term debt approximates
fair value due to their short maturities. The estimated fair value of publicly traded financial equity instruments
are determined by quoted market prices.

Net Income per Share and ADS

Basic net income per share and ADS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
outstanding registered shares. Diluted net income per share and ADS is computed using the weighted average
outstanding registered shares and dilutive registered share equivalents. The registered share equivalents are
registered shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options computed using the treasury stock method, and upon
the conversion of convertible debt computed using the if-converted method. For the fiscal years ended March 31,
2006, 2005 and 2004, the conversion of convertible debt was included in the registered share equivalents due to
its dilutive effect.

The computations of the basic and diluted net income per share amounts for the Company were as follows

During fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, 807,778, 2,019,886 and 4,140,852 share equivalents attributable to
outstanding stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share and ADS because
the exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the Company’s registered
shares, and therefore their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company currently measures compensation expense for its employee stock-based compensation plans
using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees.” Accordingly, the Company recognizes compensation expense only when it
grants options with a discounted exercise price. The Company applies the pro forma disclosure provisions of
SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, Transition and Disclosure,” which require companies to measure employee stock compensation
based on the fair value method of accounting.

If the Company had used SFAS 123 to account for stock plan compensation expense, net income and net

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based
Payment,” which requires companies to expense the fair value of employee stock options and other forms of
share-based compensation. Accordingly, SFAS 123R eliminates the use of the intrinsic value method to account

F-11

LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

for share-based compensation transactions as provided under APB Opinion No. 25. Under SFAS 123R, the
Company is required to determine the appropriate fair value model to be used to value share-based payments, the
amortization method for compensation cost and the transition method to be used at the date of adoption. In
addition, the adoption of SFAS 123R will require additional accounting related to tax benefits on employee stock
options and for shares issued under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan. The Company is required to
adopt SFAS 123R in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. In March 2005, the SEC issued SAB No. 107, “Share-
Based Payment,” which provides its interpretation of SFAS 123R and its views regarding the valuation of share-
based payments for public companies. The Company is evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123R and SAB 107
and will record stock-based compensation expense beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2006, which will
reduce operating results in that quarter and future periods.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined as the total change in shareholders’ equity during the period other than
from transactions with shareholders. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive
income, a component of shareholders’ equity. Other comprehensive income is comprised of foreign currency
translation adjustments from those entities not using the U.S. dollar as their functional currency, unrealized gains
and losses on marketable equity securities and net deferred gains and losses on hedging activity.

Note 3 — Acquisitions:

In May 2004, the Company acquired Intrigue Technologies, a privately held provider of advanced remote
controls, based in Mississauga, Canada. The acquisition is part of the Company’s strategy to pursue new
opportunities in the living room environment, positioning Logitech at the convergence of consumer electronics
and personal computing in the digital living room.

Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of Intrigue
Technologies for $29.0 million in cash. An additional $1.6 million was incurred for transaction costs. The
agreement provides for deferred payments to Intrigue’s former shareholders based on the highest net sales from
products incorporating Intrigue’s technology during the revenue measurement period, defined as any consecutive
four-quarter period beginning in April 2006 through September 2007. The total deferred payment amount will
vary with net sales in the revenue measurement period. The payment amount would approximate 27% of such net
sales at the highest net sales level, although the percentage could be higher at lower net sales levels. No deferred
payments are required if the highest net sales level in the revenue measurement period is less than $55.0 million.
The total payment amount will not be known until the end of the revenue measurement period and will be
recorded as an adjustment to goodwill.

The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Therefore, the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values as determined by Company
management based on information available at the date of acquisition. The Company obtained an independent
appraisal to assist management in its determination of the fair values of the acquired identifiable intangible
assets. The results of operations of the acquired company were included in Logitech’s consolidated statement of
income from the acquisition date forward. Pro forma results of operations are not presented, as the results of
operations of Intrigue at the time of acquisition were not material to the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

The acquired database consists of various proprietary databases developed by Intrigue, including its device
infrared-controlled devices made by manufacturers. The acquired
and infrared database, which support
technology relates to developed software used in Intrigue’s line of advanced remote controls. Trademark/trade
name relates to the Harmony brand name under which the remote controls are sold and which Logitech has
continued to use in its product portfolio. Customer contracts relate to certain existing relationships with
distributors through established contracts. The value of the database, acquired technology and trademark/trade
name were determined using the royalty savings approach, which estimates the value of the assets by capitalizing
the royalties saved as a result of acquiring the assets. The value of the customer contracts was determined using
the cost savings approach, which estimates the amount saved by the Company as a result of acquiring the asset.

The acquired intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The
database is being amortized over an estimated useful life of ten years and all other acquired intangible assets are
being amortized over estimated useful lives of five years. Goodwill associated with the acquisition is not subject
to amortization and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Note 4 — Investments:

In July 2003, the Company made a $15.1 million cash investment in the Anoto Group AB (“Anoto”), a
publicly traded Swedish technology company from which Logitech licenses its digital pen technology. The
investment represented approximately 9.5% of Anoto’s outstanding shares as of March 31, 2006. The Company
accounts for the investment as available-for-sale securities and reported its fair value of $36.3 million based on
quoted market prices on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2006. During fiscal year 2006, the Company recorded
a gross unrealized gain of $21.3 million associated with the Anoto investment, which is included net of tax in
accumulated other comprehensive loss. In connection with the investment, a Logitech executive was elected to
the Anoto board of directors. The license agreement requires Logitech to pay a license fee for the rights to use
the Anoto technology and a license fee on the sales value of digital pen solutions sold by Logitech. Also, the
agreement includes non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) service fees primarily for specific development and
maintenance of Anoto’s licensed technology. During fiscal year 2006, expenses incurred for license fees to
Anoto were $.5 million. Expenses incurred for license fees and NRE service fees to Anoto were $.7 million in
fiscal year 2005.

In April 2006, the Company sold 42% of its Anoto stock and recognized a gain of $6.6 million, which will
be included in other income, net in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007. The Company’s remaining interest
represents approximately 5.5% of Anoto’s outstanding shares.

In prior years and most recently in May 2004, the Company made cash investments in A4Vision, Inc.
totaling $1.2 million, which represented approximately 4% of A4Vision’s outstanding shares. The Company
accounts for the investment under the cost method. In connection with the investment, a Logitech executive was
appointed to the A4Vision board of directors. During fiscal year 2006, the Company determined that a decrease
in A4Vision’s value is more than temporary based on a review of its fair value and wrote off the investment. The
investment loss was recorded in other income, net. A4Vision is a privately held company from which Logitech
licenses face tracking software. The license agreement requires Logitech to pay a license fee based on the
number of its products sold with A4Vision’s licensed software. During fiscal year 2006, expenses incurred for
license fees to A4Vision were immaterial. Expenses incurred for license fees to A4Vision amounted to $.2
million in fiscal year 2005.

For the years ended March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, amortization expense for other intangible assets was
$4.6 million, $6.3 million and $5.2 million. The Company expects that annual amortization expense for the fiscal
years ending 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 will be $3.9 million, $2.5 million, $1.6 million, $.7 million and
$.6 million; and $1.9 million in total thereafter.

In connection with Logitech’s acquisition of Intrigue Technologies in May 2004, the Company recorded
goodwill of $23.2 million based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. In the fourth quarter of fiscal
year 2005, goodwill was reduced by $.3 million for purchase price adjustments related to the Intrigue acquisition.
Also, during fiscal year 2005, the Company recorded additions to goodwill of $2.8 million for foreign currency
translation adjustments.

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test during its fiscal fourth quarter. While the Company
has fully integrated all of its acquired companies, the Company continues to maintain discrete financial information for

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

On June 8, 2001, Logitech sold CHF 170.0 million ($95.6 million based on exchange rates at date of
issuance) aggregate principal amount of its 1% convertible bonds. The net proceeds of the convertible bond
offering were used to refinance debt associated with the Company’s acquisition of Labtec in March 2001. The
convertible bonds were issued in denominations of CHF 5,000 at par value, with interest at 1.00% payable
annually, and final redemption in June 2006 at 105%, representing a yield to maturity of 1.96%. At March 31,
2005, the carrying amount of the convertible bonds, including the accrued redemption premium, was CHF
176.5 million ($147.7 million based on exchange rates at March 31, 2005).

On August 31, 2005, the Company exercised its right to call the convertible bonds for early redemption in
accordance with their terms. As of November 11, 2005, all outstanding bonds had been presented for conversion
into 5,448,693 Logitech registered shares at the conversion price of CHF 31.20 per share ($23.72 based on
exchange rates at November 11, 2005). The conversion was satisfied through delivery of treasury shares.

Note 8 — Shareholders’ Equity:

In June 2004, the Company’s shareholders renewed the approval of 20 million authorized registered shares
for use in acquisitions, mergers and other transactions, valid through June 24, 2006. Shareholders of the
Company will be requested at the 2006 Annual General Meeting to extend this authorization until June 2008.

In addition, the Company has conditionally authorized shares totaling 30,330,930 to cover option rights
granted or other equity rights that may be granted to employees, officers and directors of Logitech under its
employee equity incentive plans. The conditional share capital increase does not have an expiration date.

Pursuant to Swiss corporate law, Logitech International S.A. may only pay dividends in Swiss francs. The
payment of dividends is limited to certain amounts of unappropriated retained earnings ($269.7 million at
March 31, 2006) and is subject to shareholder approval. The Company will recommend to its shareholders that
no cash dividends be paid in 2006.

Under Swiss corporate law, a minimum of 5% of the Company’s annual net income must be retained in a
legal reserve until this legal reserve equals 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding aggregate par value per
share capital. These legal reserves represent an appropriation of retained earnings that are not available for
distribution and totaled $7.3 million at March 31, 2006.

Additionally, under Swiss corporate law, the Company is required to establish a reserve equal to the amount
of treasury shares repurchased at year-end. The reserve for treasury shares, which is not available for distribution,
totaled $182.9 million at March 31, 2006.

In June 2005, the Company announced the approval by its board of directors of a new buyback program of
up to CHF 300.0 million (approximately $235.0 million based on exchange rates at the date of announcement).
The program expires at the Company’s 2008 Annual General Meeting at the latest. Under this program, the
Company repurchased 4.2 million shares for $174.6 million during the year ended March 31, 2006. The approved
amount remaining under this program at March 31, 2006 is CHF 76.1 million ($58.3 million based on exchange
rate at March 31, 2006).

Note 9 — Employee Benefit Plans:

Employee Share Purchase Plan

Under the 1996 Employee Share Purchase Plan, eligible employees may purchase registered shares at the
lower of 85% of the fair market value at the beginning or the end of each six-month offering period. Subject to
continued participation in these plans, purchase agreements are automatically executed at the end of each
offering period.

Stock Option Plans

Under the 1996 Stock Plan, the Company may grant to employees options for registered shares or ADSs,
restricted shares, stock appreciation rights, and stock units, which are bookkeeping entries representing the
equivalent of shares. A total of 38,000,000 registered shares and/or ADSs may be issued under this plan. Options
generally vest over four years and remain outstanding for periods not to exceed ten years. Options may only be
granted at exercise prices of at least 100% of the fair market value of the registered shares on the date of grant.
Restricted shares and stock appreciation rights may be granted at prices less than 100% of the fair market value
of the registered shares on the date of grant; no cash consideration is required to be paid by employees in
connection with the grant of stock units. The Company has made no grants of restricted shares, stock
appreciation rights or stock units. As of March 31, 2006, a total of 7,118,322 options were available for grant
under the 1996 Stock Plan.

Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period when the exercise price of an option is less
than the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. No compensation expense was recognized
in fiscal years 2006, 2005, or 2004.

Defined Contribution Plans

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have defined contribution employee benefit plans covering all or a
portion of their employees. Contributions to these plans are discretionary for certain plans and are based on
specified or statutory requirements for others. The charges to expense for these plans for the years ended
March 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, were $5.9 million, $4.7 million and $5.1 million.

Defined Benefit Plan

One of the Company’s subsidiaries sponsors a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan covering
substantially all of its employees. Retirement benefits are provided based on employees’ years of service and
earnings. The Company’s practice is to fund amounts sufficient to meet the requirements set forth in the
applicable employee benefit and tax regulations. Net pension costs for the years ended March 31, 2006, 2005 and
2004 were $.8 million, $1.2 million and $.9 million. The plan’s net pension liability at March 31, 2006 and 2005
was $3.2 million and $2.5 million.

Deferred Compensation Plan

One of the Company’s subsidiaries offers a management deferred compensation plan which permits eligible
employees to make 100%-vested salary and incentive compensation deferrals within established limits, which are
invested in Company-owned life insurance contracts held in a Rabbi Trust. The Company does not make

contributions to the plan. The cash surrender value of the insurance contracts was approximately $9.4 million and
$8.2 million at March 31, 2006 and 2005 and was included in other assets. Expenses and gains or losses related
to the insurance contracts are included in other income, net and have not been significant to date. The unsecured
obligation to pay the compensation deferred, adjusted to reflect
the positive or negative performance of
investment measurement options selected by each participant, was approximately $10.7 million and $8.2 million
at March 31, 2006 and 2005 and was included in other liabilities. The additional compensation expenses related
to investment performance have not been significant to date.

Note 10 — Income Taxes:

The Company is incorporated in Switzerland but operates in various countries with differing tax laws and
rates. Further, a portion of the Company’s income before taxes and the provision for income taxes are generated
outside of Switzerland. The portion of the Company’s income before taxes for fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004
subject to foreign income taxes was $92.2 million, $58.2 million, and $57.0 million. Consequently, the weighted
average expected tax rate may vary from period to period to reflect the generation of taxable income in different
tax jurisdictions.

The current and deferred tax provision is calculated based on estimates and assumptions that could differ
from the actual results reflected in income tax returns filed. Adjustments for differences between the tax
provisions and tax returns are recorded when identified, which is generally in the third or fourth quarter of the
subsequent year.

LOGITECH INTERNATIONAL S.A.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

The Company maintains reserves for tax contingencies within the accrued liabilities account. These reserves
involve considerable judgment and estimation and are continuously monitored by management based on the best
information available including changes in tax regulations, the outcome of relevant court cases, and other
information. The Company is currently under examination by various taxing authorities. Although the outcome
of any tax audit is uncertain, management believes it has adequately provided in the Company’s financial
statements for any additional taxes that it may be required to pay as a result of such examinations. If the payment
ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the reversal of the tax liabilities would result in tax benefits being
recognized in the period the Company determines such liabilities are no longer necessary. However, if a final tax
assessment exceeds the Company’s estimate of tax liabilities, an additional tax provision will be recorded. Such
adjustments could have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations in future periods.

Management regularly assesses the ability to realize deferred tax assets recorded in the Company’s entities
based upon the weight of available evidence, including such factors as the recent earnings history and expected
future taxable income. In November 2003, the Company released a valuation allowance on specific deferred tax
assets after it had determined that the valuation allowance was no longer required. As a result, the income tax
provision and net income for fiscal year 2004 included a one-time favorable impact of $13.4 million. In the event
future taxable income is below management’s estimates or is generated in tax jurisdictions different than
projected, the Company could be required to increase the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. This would
result in an increase in the Company’s effective tax rate.

Deferred tax assets of $47.3 million at March 31, 2006 pertain to net operating loss (“NOL”) and tax credit
carry forwards resulting from the exercise of employee stock options. Management believes that it is more likely
than not that the Company will not realize these deferred tax assets and, accordingly, a valuation allowance has
been established for such amounts. When this valuation allowance is released through generating sufficient
taxable income to utilize the NOL deductions and tax credits, the benefit of the release of the valuation allowance
will be accounted for as a credit to shareholders’ equity rather than as a reduction of the income tax provision.
During the fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004, the valuation allowance increased by $11.9 million, $1.3 million,
and $.7 million, due to exercises of employee stock options.

As of March 31, 2006, the Company’s foreign net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards for income
tax purposes were $102.6 million and $69.5 million. If not utilized, these carry forwards will begin to expire in
fiscal year 2007.

The expected tax provision at the weighted average rate is generally calculated using pre-tax accounting
income or loss in each country multiplied by that country’s applicable statutory tax rates. The difference between
the provision for income taxes and the expected tax provision at the weighted average tax rate is reconciled
below (in thousands):

Note 11 — Derivative Financial Instruments – Foreign Exchange Hedging:

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts (accounted for as cash flow hedges) to hedge
against exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to forecasted inventory purchases by
subsidiaries. Hedging contracts generally mature within three months. Gains and losses in the fair value of the
effective portion of the contracts are deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the
hedged inventory purchases are sold, at which time the gains or losses are reclassified to cost of goods sold. If the
underlying transaction being hedged fails to occur or if a portion of the hedge does not generate offsetting
changes in the foreign currency exposure of forecasted inventory purchases,
the Company immediately
recognizes the gain or loss on the associated financial instrument in other income (expense). The Company did
not record any gains or losses due to hedge ineffectiveness during fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004. The notional
amounts of foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding at March 31, 2006 and 2005 were $13.6 million and
$20.0 million. The notional amount represents the future cash flows under contracts to purchase foreign
currencies. Deferred realized gains totaled $.2 million at March 31, 2006 and are expected to be reclassified to
cost of goods sold when the related inventory is sold. Realized net losses reclassified to cost of goods sold during
fiscal years 2006, 2005 and 2004 were $2.6 million, $1.0 million and $3.5 million.

The Company also enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against foreign currency
exposures inherent in forecasted sales denominated in non-functional currencies, also designated as cash flow
hedges. The foreign exchange forward contracts are entered into on a monthly basis and generally mature
between one to two months, corresponding with the expected payment terms on the Company’s sales. Further,
the Company may enter into foreign exchange swap contracts to extend the terms of its foreign exchange forward
contracts. Gains and losses in the fair value of the effective portion of the contracts are deferred as a component
of accumulated other comprehensive loss until the hedged receivable is settled, at which time the gains or losses
are reclassified to other income (expense). The notional amounts of foreign exchange forward contracts
outstanding at March 31, 2006 and 2005 were $8.6 million and $5.0 million. The notional amounts of foreign
exchange swap contracts outstanding at March 31, 2006 and 2005 were $5.9 million and $2.7 million. Deferred
gains on the contracts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss were immaterial at March 31, 2006.

operating leases at March 31, 2006 are as follows (in thousands):

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

At March 31, 2006, the Company had approximately $128.6 million in fixed purchase commitments with
suppliers for inventory. Fixed commitments for capital and other expenditures approximated $8.7 million and
primarily related to commitments for manufacturing equipment and software, as well as consulting, marketing
and advertising arrangements. Although open purchase orders are considered enforceable and legally binding, the
terms generally allow the Company the option to reschedule and adjust its requirements based on the business
needs prior to the delivery of goods or performance of services.

The Company has guaranteed the purchase obligations of some of its contract manufacturers to certain
component suppliers. These guarantees have a term of one year and are automatically extended for one or more
additional years as long as a liability exists. The amount of the purchase obligations of these manufacturers varies
over time, and therefore the amounts subject to Logitech’s guarantees similarly varies. At March 31, 2006, the
amount of these outstanding guaranteed purchase obligations was approximately $1.3 million. The Company
does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any
amounts will be required to be paid under these guarantee arrangements.

Logitech indemnifies some of its suppliers and customers for losses arising from matters such as intellectual
property rights and product safety defects, subject to certain restrictions. The scope of these indemnities varies,
but in some instances, includes indemnification for damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
No amounts have been accrued for indemnification provisions at March 31, 2006. The Company does not
believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any amounts
will be required to be paid under its indemnification arrangements.

All of the Company’s products are subject to the European Union’s (“EU”) Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Directive (“WEEE”), which require producers of electrical goods be financially responsible for
specified collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of covered products. The original implementation date
proposed by the WEEE Directive for enactment of national legislation by EU member states was August 2004.
Producers are to be financially responsible under the WEEE legislation beginning in August 2005. Producer
obligations also include specified collection, recycling, treatment and disposal of equipment that had been placed
in the EU marketplace prior to August 2005, and has reached its end of life. To date, specific legal requirements
have not been finalized by all member states, with certain member states delaying implementation until late
2006. In those countries which have enacted legislation, the Company expects to incur costs for managing and
recycling historical waste equipment and make provisions for costs related to future waste. These costs are
expected to be based on the Company’s estimated market share of the total cost, which will depend on a number
of factors, including administration, recycling and treatment costs as well as the commercial cost of recycling.

The Company is involved in a number of lawsuits and claims relating to commercial matters that arise in the
normal course of business. The Company believes these lawsuits and claims are without merit and intends to
vigorously defend against them. However, there can be no assurances that its defenses will be successful, or that
any judgment or settlement in any of these lawsuits would not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s
business, financial condition and results of operations.
