10. About Logitech Inc. 
Logitech designs, manufactures and markets personal peripherals that enable people to 
effectively work, play, and communicate in the digital world.  The company's products combine 
essential core technologies, continuing innovation, award-winning industrial design and excellent 
price performance.  
Logitech International is a Swiss public company traded on the SWX Swiss Exchange under the 
symbol LOGN and on the Nasdaq National Market System under the symbol LOGI.  The company 
has manufacturing facilities in Asia and offices in major cities in North America, Europe and Asia 
Pacific.   
Logitech’s origins lie in the OEM sector, which remains an important part of its business, and 
represented 13 percent of the company’s total sales in Fiscal 2005.  To meet the demands of its 
OEM customer base, which includes most of the world's largest PC manufacturers, Logitech 
offers high-volume manufacturing with focused quality control, worldwide distribution and 
logistics, and the ability to leverage its infrastructure under changing demand conditions. 
Logitech continues to broaden its product offering and its presence in the retail sector.  This is 
fueled by a trend among consumers to enhance their basic PC systems with more fully featured 
personal peripherals that add functionality and cordless freedom to their desktops.  They are also 
purchasing supplementary devices designed for new applications and specific purposes such as 
gaming, multimedia, or audio and visual communication over the Internet.  Further, Logitech’s 
retail business includes personal peripherals for platforms beyond the PC, such as gaming 
consoles, portable music players, mobile phones and home-entertainment systems. 
Today, Logitech's retail business accounts for 87 percent of its revenue.  To provide the market 
with a broadening array of best-of-category products, Logitech's business model calls for 
supplementing its internal engineering and manufacturing strength with additional products and 
technologies through a combination of strategic acquisitions and industry partnerships. 
Additionally, the company believes that a number of strategic directions will result in continuing 
growth: 
•  Broadening the desktop presence: Logitech has already expanded beyond its traditional role 
as a provider of pointing devices for the desktop into a leading brand for webcams, 
keyboards, PC audio products, game controllers, digital pens and advanced universal remote 
controls.   
•  Moving beyond the desktop to the living room: Today, people are increasingly turning to 
digital entertainment, in the form of enhanced audio and multimedia products and to the 
growing world of entertainment consoles.  Logitech currently makes several products for the 
popular PlayStation® 2 gaming console, as well as devices for the Microsoft® Xbox.  Logitech 
also offers a family of advanced univeral remote controls for the living room.
