Report of Independent Registered Public
Accounting Firm
The
Board of Directors
Benchmark
Electronics, Inc.:
We
have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the Benchmark Electronics, Inc. 401(k) Employee Savings Plan (the Plan) as
of December 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related statement of changes in net
assets available for benefits for the year ended December 30, 2015. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In
our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of
December 30, 2015 and 2014, and the changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 30, 2015, in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
The
supplemental information in the accompanying Schedule of Assets (Held at End of
Year) as of December 30, 2015 has been subjected to audit procedures performed
in conjunction with the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The
supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional analysis
and is not a required part of the financial statements but includes
supplemental information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the
Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the
supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the
underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing
procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented
in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental
information in the accompanying schedule, we evaluated whether the supplemental
information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with
the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure
under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the
supplemental information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation
to the financial statements as a whole.

401(k) EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Description of
Plan
The
following description of the Benchmark Electronics, Inc. 401(k) Employee
Savings Plan (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should
refer to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s
provisions.
(a) General
The
Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of Benchmark
Electronics, Inc. (the Company) and the following affiliates of the Company:
Benchmark Electronics Huntsville Inc.; Benchmark Electronics California,
Incorporated; Benchmark Electronics Manufacturing Solutions, Inc.; and
Benchmark Electronics Manufacturing Solutions (Moorpark), Inc. The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of
1974, as amended (ERISA). Effective December 1, 2009, the Plan adopted the
Prudential Retirement Prototype Plan (the Prototype Plan).
The
Plan is administered by the Company and advised by the board of directors of
the Company and the investment committee. Prudential Bank & Trust, FSB is
trustee of the Plan, and Prudential Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company
(Prudential) is the record keeper.
(b) Contributions
and Investment Options
Participants
may elect to make pre-tax contributions of up to 100% (in 1.0% increments) of
their compensation, as defined. Participant contributions will be matched by
the Company on a 100% basis, not to exceed 4.0% of a participant’s compensation
(referred to as employer contributions) upon completion of one year of service.
The Company may also elect to make an employer discretionary contribution to
all employees employed at the end of the Plan year who have completed 1,000
hours of service during such year. The Company did not make a discretionary
contribution during the 2015 Plan year. Certain Internal Revenue Service (IRS)
limits may apply to both the participants’ contributions and the employers’
contributions. Eligible participants may also elect to roll over distributions
from a former employer’s qualified retirement plan.
Participants
direct the investment of all contributions into various investment options
offered by the Plan. The Plan currently offers 14 mutual funds, Company common
stock and an insurance investment contract as investment options for
participants.
(c) Participant
Accounts
Each
participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions and
employer matching contributions and an allocation of discretionary employer
contributions, if any, and plan earnings. Allocations are based on participant
earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is
entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested
account.
BENCHMARK ELECTRONICS, INC.
401(k) EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(d) Vesting
Participants
are immediately vested in their contributions, employer matching contributions
and the actual earnings thereon.
(e) Notes
Receivable from Participants
Upon
application by a participant, the Plan administrator may make loans to
participants not to exceed 50% of their 401(k) vested balance, with a minimum
of $1,000 and a maximum of $50,000 less the participant’s highest outstanding
loan balance during the preceding 12 months. Participants’ loans are to be
repaid by level monthly payroll deductions of principal plus interest or may be
prepaid in full or in part without penalty at any time. The interest rate is
set at the prime rate plus 1%. Loan proceeds are reduced by a $75 loan
processing fee.
Notes
receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance
plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Interest income is recorded on the
accrual basis. Related fees are recorded as administrative expenses and are
expensed when they are incurred. No allowance for credit losses has been
recorded at December 30, 2015, or 2014. Delinquent loans are treated as
distributions based upon the terms of the Plan document.
(f) Administrative
Expenses
Administrative
expenses of the Plan are paid partly by the Company and partly by the Plan.
Mutual fund redemption fees and investment advisory fees paid by participants
are reported in administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of
changes in net assets available for benefits.
Expenses related to the asset management of the investment
funds and recordkeeping services are paid via the expense ratios charged on the
investments, which reduce the investment return reported and credited to
participant accounts. Consequently, these management fees and operating
expenses are reflected as a reduction of investment return for such
investments. In addition, the Company incurs certain expenses administering the
Plan, which are not included in the Plan’s financial statements.
(g) Payment
of Benefits
On
termination of service, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum
amount equal to the vested value of his/her account, an annuity with various
terms and rates or roll the vested balance over to another qualified plan.
While
employed, a participant may make withdrawals from his or her account balance
(as allowed under IRS regulations) subject to certain restrictions as described
in the Plan. Certain restrictions associated with withdrawals may be waived in
the event a participant demonstrates financial hardship.

401(k) EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(h) Termination of the Plan
Although
the Company has not expressed any intent to terminate the Plan, it may do so as
provided by the Plan agreement.
(2) Summary
of Accounting Policies
(a) Basis
of Accounting
The
financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of
accounting.
Investments
held by a defined contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value,
except for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. Contract value is the
relevant measure for the portion of the net assets available for benefits of a
defined contribution plan attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment
contracts because contract value is the amount participants normally would
receive if they were to initiate permitted transactions under the Plan.
(b) Investment
Valuation
Investments
are reported at fair value (except for fully benefit-responsive investment
contracts, which are reported at contract value). The common stock of the
Company and mutual funds are valued at their quoted market price. The
investments in common/collective trust funds are valued based upon the quoted
market values of the underlying assets.
Purchases
and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest and
dividends are recorded as earned. Net depreciation includes the Plan’s gains
and losses on investments purchased and sold as well as held during the year.
(c) Concentration
of Investments
The
Plan’s investment in shares of the Company’s common stock represented 4.3% and
5.3% of the Plan’s net assets as of December 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The Company has been in operation since 1981 and is listed on the New York
Stock Exchange.
(d) Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan
administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
additions to and deductions from net assets during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
(e) Payment
of Benefits
Benefits
are recorded when paid.
(f)
Subsequent Events
Subsequent
events have been evaluated for potential recognition and disclosure through the
date the Plan financial statements were issued.

New Accounting Pronouncements
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) recently issued Accounting
Standards Update (ASU) 2015-12, “Plan Accounting: Defined Benefit Pension Plans
(Topic 960), Defined Contribution Pension Plans (Topic 962), Health and Welfare
Benefit Plans (Topic 965): (Part I) Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment
Contracts (FBRICs), (Part II) Plan Investment Disclosures, (Part III)
Measurement Date Practical Expedient”. The amendments are effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for all
parts of ASU 2015-12. This update reduces complexity in employee benefit plan
accounting.
Part
I of ASU 2015-12 designated contract value as the only required measure for
fully benefit-responsive investment contracts.
The
amendment in Part II of ASU 2015-12 required that investments (both
participant-directed and nonparticipant-directed investments) of employee
benefit plans be grouped only by general type, eliminating the need to
disaggregate the investments in multiple ways. Part II also eliminated the
requirement to disclose individual investments that represent five percent or
more of net assets available for benefits and the net appreciation or
depreciation for investments by general type.
Part
III of ASU 2015-12 provides a practical expedient that permits plans to measure
investments and investment-related accounts as of a month end date that is
closest to the plan’s fiscal year end, when the fiscal period does not coincide
with month end.
The
Plan Administrator early adopted this guidance on December 30, 2015, but did
not utilize the practical expedient provided under Part III.
(3) Benchmark
Electronics, Inc. Common Stock
Each
participant is entitled to exercise voting rights attributable to the shares
allocated to his or her account and is notified by the trustee prior to the
time that such rights are to be exercised.
(4) Investments
at Contract Value
The
Plan’s investment in the Guaranteed Income Fund (GIF) is an evergreen group
annuity contract and is valued at contract value as estimated by Prudential.
The GIF’s interest rates are adjusted to market semi-annually. Contract value
represents net contributions plus interest at the contract rate, less funds
used to purchase annuities and pay administrative expenses by Prudential.
The
GIF earned an average yield and credited an interest rate to participants of
2.15% and 2.15%, respectively, for the year ended December 30, 2015. The
minimum crediting rate under the GIF contract is 1.50%. There are no reserves
against contract value for credit risk of the contract issuer or otherwise. The
guarantee is based on Prudential’s ability to meet its financial obligations
from its general assets. Prudential’s ability to meet its contractual
obligations may be affected by future economic and regulatory developments.
BENCHMARK ELECTRONICS, INC.
401(k) EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
(5) Federal Income
Tax Exemption
The
IRS has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated March 31, 2008,
that the Prototype Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with
Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (IRC), and,
accordingly, are entitled to an exemption from federal income taxes under the
provisions of Section 501(a) of the IRC. The Plan administrator believes that
the Plan is designed, and is currently being operated, in compliance with the
appropriate IRC sections. Management has evaluated the Plan’s tax positions and
has concluded that, as of December 30, 2015, the Plan had maintained its tax
exempt status and had taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment
to the financial statements. Therefore, no provision or liability for income
taxes has been included in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to
routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are no audits for any
tax periods in progress. The Plan administrator believes the Plan is no longer
subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2011.
(6) Reconciliation
of Financial Statements to Form 5500

(7) Party-in-Interest
Transactions
The
Plan engages in investment transactions with funds managed by Prudential
Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company and Prudential Investments LLC. These companies
are all affiliated with Prudential Financial Inc., which is the parent company
for Prudential Bank & Trust, FSB, the trustee. These transactions are
covered by an exemption from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and
IRC.
The
Plan invests in shares of the Company’s common stock. As the Company is the
sponsor of the Plan, these transactions qualify as party-in-interest
transactions, which are also exempt under ERISA.
(8)
Risks and Uncertainties
The
Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are
exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to
the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least
reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will
occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect
participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statement of net
assets available for benefits.
(9) Fair
Value Measurements
The
framework for measuring fair value provides a fair value hierarchy that
prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
The hierarchy gives the highest priority
to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs (level 3 measurements). Valuation techniques maximize the use of
relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The
three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Inputs to the valuation
methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in
active markets that the Plan has the ability to access.
Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices
included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly or indirectly, such as:
• Quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets;
• Quoted prices for identical or
similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
• Inputs other than quoted prices that
are observable for the asset or liability;
• Inputs that are derived principally
from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the
Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset
or liability.
Level 3 Inputs that are unobservable and
significant for the asset or liability.
