Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2007

(In thousands, except share and per share information)

1.	Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the 13-week and 26-week periods ended June 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 29, 2007.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 30, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2006.

The Company’s fiscal year is based on a 52-53 week period ending on the last Saturday of the calendar year. Therefore the financial results of certain fiscal years, and the associated 14-week quarters, will not be exactly comparable to the prior and subsequent 52-week fiscal years and the associated quarters having only 13-weeks. The quarters ended June 30, 2007 and July 1, 2006 both contain operating results for 13-weeks for both year-to-date periods.

Stock Split (“Split”) - All July 1, 2006 common stock and applicable share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect a 2-for-1 split of the Company’s Common Stock effective August 15, 2006.

2.	Inventories

The components of inventories consist of the following:

	June 30, 2007			December 30, 2006
Raw materials	$	92,239		$	85,040
Work-in-process		50,453			42,450
Finished goods		170,292			160,748
Inventory reserves		(22,302	)		(17,230	)

Inventory, net of reserves	$	290,682		$	271,008

3.	Share Repurchase Plan

The Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program on August 3, 2006, authorizing the Company to purchase up to 3.0 million shares of Garmin Ltd.’s common stock as market and business conditions warrant.

7.	Income Taxes

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), on December 31, 2006, the beginning of fiscal year 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company has not recognized a material increase or decrease in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of the date of adoption is $70.5 million including interest of $3.3 million. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2007 is $90.3 million including interest of $5.4 million. The June 30, 2007 balance of $90.3 million of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would reduce the effective tax rate. None of the unrecognized tax benefits are due to uncertainty in the timing of deductibility.

FIN 48 requires unrecognized tax benefits to be classified as non-current liabilities, except for the portion that is expected to be paid within one year of the balance sheet date. The Company previously classified these amounts as current liabilities, however after the adoption, the entire $90.3 million is required to be classified as non-current at June 30, 2007.

Interest expense and penalties, if any, accrued on the unrecognized tax benefits are reflected in income tax expense. $0.5 million of interest is included in income tax expense for the quarter ending June 30, 2007. At June 30, 2007 and at December 30, 2006, the Company had accrued approximately $4.3 million and $3.3 million respectively for interest. The Company had no amounts accrued for penalties as the nature of the unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would not warrant the imposition of penalties.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to US federal, state, or local tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2003. The Company also considers 2003 and 2004 US federal returns to have been effectively settled due to the completion of audit examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company is no longer subject to Taiwan income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2001. The Company is no longer subject to United Kingdom tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2005.

The Company believes that it is reasonably possible that $5.0 million of its reserves for certain unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within the next 12 months as the result of the statute of limitations expiring related to an uncertain tax benefit associated with transfer pricing. This potential decrease in unrecognized tax benefits would impact the Company’s effective tax rate within the next 12 months.

8.	Warranty Reserves

The Company’s products sold are generally covered by a warranty for periods ranging from one to two years. The Company’s estimate of costs to service its warranty obligations are based on historical experience and expectation of future conditions and are recorded as a liability on the balance sheet. The following reconciliation provides an illustration of changes in the aggregate warranty reserve.

	13-Weeks Ended

10.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS No. 157 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a material impact on our financial reporting and disclosure.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS No. 159”), “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 allows entities the option to measure eligible financial instruments at fair value as of specified dates. Such election, which may be applied on an instrument by instrument basis, is typically irrevocable once elected. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and early application is allowed under certain circumstances. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 159 and has not yet determined the impact, if any, on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

11.

Acquisitions

In the first quarter of 2007, Garmin Ltd. acquired EME Tec Sat SAS (the exclusive distributor of Garmin’s consumer products in France and now renamed Garmin France SAS), Digital Cyclone, Inc. (a location based services provider), and the assets of Nautamatic Marine Systems, Inc. (a manufacturer of the TR-1 Gold and Gladiator marine autopilots) for $72.1 million less $3.2 million cash acquired. The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in an increase in goodwill and intangible assets of $68.6 million. These acquisitions are not material, either individually or in aggregate, therefore supplemental pro forma information is not presented.

In the second quarter of 2007, Garmin Ltd. announced its intent to acquire GPS Gesellschaft für Professionelle Satellitennavigation mbH (the exclusive distributor of Garmin’s consumer products in Germany).

12.

The Company is a leading worldwide provider of navigation, communications and information devices, most of which are enabled by Global Positioning System, or GPS, technology. We operate in four business segments, the outdoor/fitness, marine, automotive/mobile and aviation markets. Our segments offer products through our network of independent dealers and distributors. However, the nature of products and types of customers for the four segments may vary significantly. As such, the segments are managed separately.

Increases in sales for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2007 were primarily due to a strong response to automotive and aviation product offerings. Automotive/mobile revenue became a significantly larger portion of our revenue mix, rising from 59.1% in the second quarter of 2006 to 68.4% in the second quarter of 2007. Approximately 19% of sales in the second quarter of 2007 were generated from products introduced in the last twelve months.

Total unit sales increased 99% to 2,544,000 in the second quarter of 2007 from 1,281,000 in the same period of 2006. The higher unit sales volume in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 was primarily attributable to strong sales of automotive products during the seasonally higher second quarter, although unit growth occurred across all segments of the business during the quarter.

Automotive/mobile segment revenue grew the fastest during the quarter, nearly doubling from the year-ago quarter, on the strength of nüvi, c-series, and other personal navigation devices (PNDs). Our aviation segment also performed well, as demand for our GMX 200, WAAS-enabled retrofit products, and WAAS upgrades to previously installed products continued to be strong. The marine segment showed strong growth during the quarter when compared with the second quarter of 2006, driven by new products released in late first quarter and during the second quarter. Revenues in our outdoor/fitness segment grew relative to the second quarter of 2006 due to seasonal demand for the products, dampened by the overall maturity of products in the segment’s portfolio.

Gross Profit

	Gross Profit		% of Revenues			Gross Profit		% of Revenues			$ Change		% Change
Outdoor/Fitness	$	43,648		56.6	%	$	42,469		59.7	%	$	1,179		2.8	%
Marine		46,381		58.1	%		29,823		59.5	%		16,558		55.5	%

Total	$	374,667		50.5	%	$	216,284		50.0	%	$	158,383		73.2	%

Gross profit dollars in the second quarter of 2007 grew 73.2% and gross profit margin percentage increased 50 basis points over the second quarter of 2006. Second quarter gross profit margins decreased to 56.6%, 58.1%, and 65.8% in the outdoor/fitness, marine and aviation segments respectively, when compared to the same quarter in 2006. Second quarter 2007 gross profit margins increased to 46.0% in the automotive/mobile segment, when compared with the second quarter of 2006.

Gross profit margin percentage for the Company overall increased primarily as a result of the automotive/mobile segment becoming a significantly larger percentage of the Company’s product mix during a quarter when this segment’s margin improved over 400 basis points. While the automotive/mobile segment is by nature a lower-margin business, strong sales of our higher priced and more fully featured products, declining component pricing, and a less aggressive than anticipated pricing environment for the segment supported both gross margin improvement and gross margin dollar growth within the segment. Release of new products into the marine retail channel drove strong sequential improvement in marine margins, returning them to historic ranges. Declines in gross margin in the outdoor/fitness segment as a result of a more mature product mix pressured gross margins for the Company during the quarter. While product mix in the aviation segment resulted in a small margin decline for the segment relative to the year-ago quarter, the aviation segment’s strong gross margin profile continued to provide gross margin support for the Company.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

	13-weeks ended June 30, 2007					13-weeks ended July 1, 2006
	Selling, General					Selling, General					Quarter over Quarter
	& Admin. Expenses		% of Revenues			& Admin. Expenses		% of Revenues			$ Change		% Change
Outdoor/Fitness	$	9,310		12.1	%	$	6,900		9.7	%	$	2,410		34.9	%
Marine		8,748		11.0	%		5,611		11.2	%		3,137		55.9	%
Automotive/Mobile		71,445		14.1	%		38,018		14.9	%		33,427		87.9	%
Aviation		5,870		7.6	%		4,386		7.9	%		1,484		33.8	%
Total	$	95,373		12.8	%	$	54,915		12.7	%	$	40,458		73.7	%

The increase in expense was driven primarily by increased advertising spending and increased staffing throughout the organization to support our growth. Advertising spending, which included increases in both cooperative advertising costs and television and print advertising placements, increased 70% or $23.3 million when compared to the second quarter of 2006. As a percent of sales, advertising held steady at 7.7% of sales in both the second quarter of 2007 and the second quarter of 2006. Other selling, general and administrative expenses increased slightly as a percent of sales from 5.0% of sales in the second quarter of 2006 to 5.2% of sales in the second quarter of 2007, as staffing in marketing and administration were increased to support our rapid growth. In absolute dollars, other selling, general and administrative expenses increased $17.1 million when compared to the previous year quarter, with increases distributed across call center, operations, finance, administration, and marketing administration areas to support the growth of our businesses.

Research and Development Expense

	13-weeks ended June 30, 2007					13-weeks ended July 1, 2006					Quarter over Quarter
	Research & Development		% of Revenues			Research & Development		% of Revenues			$ Change		% Change
Outdoor/Fitness	$	5,738		7.4	%	$	3,952		5.6	%	$	1,786		45.2	%
Marine		4,518		5.7	%		3,066		6.1	%		1,452		47.4	%
Automotive/Mobile		13,008		2.6	%		9,069		3.6	%		3,939		43.4	%
Aviation		14,463		18.6	%		10,706		19.2	%		3,757		35.1	%
Total	$	37,727		5.1	%	$	26,793		6.2	%	$	10,934		40.8	%

The 40.8% increase in research and development expense was due to ongoing development activities for new products, the addition of 200 new engineering personnel to our staff during the quarter, and an increase in engineering program costs during the second quarter of 2007 as a result of our continued emphasis on product innovation. Research and development costs increased $10.9 million when compared with the year-ago quarter, but declined 110 basis points as a percent of revenue primarily due to the fact that the growth rate of research and development expenditures for the period (40.8%) was slower than the growth rate of revenues (71.7%).

Operating Income

	13-weeks ended June 30, 2007					13-weeks ended July 1, 2006					Quarter over Quarter
	Operating Income		% of Revenues			Operating Income		% of Revenues			$ Change			% Change
Outdoor/Fitness	$	28,600		37.1	%	$	31,617		44.5	%		($3,017	)		-9.5	%
Marine		33,115		41.5	%		21,146		42.2	%		11,969			56.6	%
Automotive/Mobile		149,067		29.3	%		59,974		23.5	%		89,093			148.6	%
Aviation		30,785		39.7	%		21,839		39.1	%		8,946			41.0	%
Total	$	241,567		32.5	%	$	134,576		31.1	%	$	106,991			79.5	%

Operating income was up 140 basis points as a percent of revenue when compared to the second quarter of 2006 due to the increase in gross margins, which in part offset additions to finance, technology, and administrative expenditures, and personnel additions in the call center to support the growth of our businesses. Operating margins decreased to 37.1% and 41.5% within our outdoor/fitness and marine segments, respectively, when compared with the second quarter in 2006. Operating margins increased to 29.3% and 39.7% within our automotive/mobile and aviation segments, respectively. Our operating margin percentage increased in part as a function of the gross profit margin percentage increase described above, as well as improvements in the operating margins of both the aviation and automotive/mobile segments, offset somewhat by operating margin declines in the marine and outdoor/fitness segments.

Other Income (Expense)

	13-weeks ended			13-weeks ended
	June 30, 2007			July 1, 2006
Interest Income	$	10,841		$	8,538

Foreign Currency Exchange		(6,086	)		2,958
Other		338			(167	)
Total	$	5,070		$	11,324

The average taxable equivalent interest rate return on invested cash during the second quarter of 2007 was 4.4% compared to 4.3% during the same quarter of 2006. The increase in interest income is attributable to our growing cash balances, increasing interest rates, and more active management of our cash balances.

Foreign currency gains and losses for the Company are primarily tied to movements by the Taiwan Dollar, and secondarily to the British Pound Sterling. While the Canadian dollar and the Euro are the respective functional currencies of Dynastream Innovations, Inc. and Garmin France, due to these entities relative sizes, their respective currency moves do not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The majority of the $6.1 million currency loss in the second quarter of 2007 was due to the weakening of the U.S. Dollar compared to the Taiwan Dollar. During the second quarter of fiscal 2007 the exchange rate decreased 0.7% to $32.86 TD/USD at June 30, 2007 from $33.09 TD/USD at March 31, 2007, resulting in $5.8 million of the quarter’s loss. While the British Pound Sterling strengthened relative to the U.S. Dollar during the quarter, the timing of transactions during the period resulted in Garmin Europe recording a $0.6 million gain.

The U.S. Dollar weakened when compared to the Taiwan Dollar during the second quarter of 2006, when the exchange rate increased to $32.37 TD/USD at July 1, 2006 from $32.46 TD/USD at April 1, 2006. While the U.S. dollar weakened relative to the Taiwan Dollar by the close of the quarter, the $3.0 million currency gain reflected in the second quarter 2006 financials was the result of the timing of transactions during the period. During the second quarter of 2006, British Pound Sterling currency moves had no material impact, and Dynastream and Garmin France had not yet been acquired.

Income Tax Provision

Our earnings before taxes increased 69.0% when compared to the same quarter in 2006, and our income tax expense increased by $9.7 million, to $32.3 million, for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2007, from $22.6 million for the 13-week period ended July 1, 2006, due to our strong revenue growth, enhanced by a lower effective tax rate. The effective tax rate was 13.1% in the second quarter of 2007 and 15.5% in the second quarter of 2006. The lower tax rate in the second quarter of 2007 when compared to the same quarter in 2006 was related to tax holidays/credits and the favorable mix of taxable income among Company entities.

Net Income

As a result of the above, net income increased 73.9% for the 13-week period ended June 30, 2007 to $214.4 million compared to $123.3 million for the 13-week period ended July 1, 2006.

Total	$	1,234,625		100.0	%	$	754,779		100.0	%	$	479,846		63.6	%

Increases in sales for the 26-week period ended June 30, 2007 were due to a strong response to automotive, aviation, and marine product offerings. Automotive/mobile revenue became a significantly larger portion of our revenue mix, rising from 53.8% in the first half of 2006 to 66.8% in the first half of 2007.

Total unit sales increased 85% to 4,095,000 in the first half of 2007 from 2,210,000 in the same period of 2006. The higher unit sales volume in the first half of fiscal 2007 was primarily attributable to strong sales of automotive products, particularly in North America.

Automotive/mobile segment revenue grew the fastest during the period, doubling from the year-ago period, on the strength of nüvi, c-series, and other personal navigation devices (PNDs). Our aviation segment also performed well, as demand for our GMX 200, WAAS-enabled retrofit products, and WAAS upgrades to previously installed products all continued strong. The release of new marine products to the marine retail channel during the period drove strong revenue growth for the segment when compared with the same period of 2006. Revenues in our outdoor/fitness segment were slightly higher than the first half of 2006, but growth for the segment was dampened by the fact that older products are becoming a larger part of the segment’s product portfolio.

Total	$	612,419		49.6	%	$	379,073		50.2	%	$	233,346			61.6	%

Gross profit dollars in the first half of 2007 grew 61.6% and gross profit margin percentage declined 60 basis points over the same period of the previous year. First half gross profit margins decreased to 56.0% and 55.0% in the outdoor/fitness and marine segments respectively, when compared to the same period in 2006. First half 2007 gross profit margins increased to 44.9% and 65.2% within the automotive/mobile and aviation segments, when compared with the first half of 2006.

Gross profit margin percentage for the Company overall decreased primarily as a result of the automotive/mobile segment becoming a significantly larger percentage of the Company’s product mix. While the automotive/mobile segment is by nature a lower-margin business, strong sales of our higher priced and more fully featured products, favorable component pricing, and a less aggressive than anticipated pricing environment for the segment supported gross margin improvement and gross margin dollar growth within the segment. Strong demand for popular retrofit products in the aviation segment resulted in favorable product mix and margins for the aviation segment particularly in the first half of the quarter. Declines in gross margin in both the outdoor/fitness and marine segments pressured gross margins for the Company during the period, although the marine segment showed significant margin improvement in the second half of the period as a result of new product releases.

Total	$	161,297		13.1	%	$	92,678		12.3	%	$	68,619		74.0	%

The increase in expense was driven primarily by increased advertising spending and increased staffing to support our growth. Advertising spending, which included increases in both cooperative advertising costs and television and print advertising placements, increased 66% or $34.3 million when compared to the first half of 2006. As a percent of sales, advertising remained nearly flat, increasing from 6.9% of sales in first half of 2006 to 7.0% of sales in first half of 2007. Other selling, general and administrative expenses increased as a percent of sales from 5.4% of sales in the first half of 2006 to 6.1% of sales in the first half of 2007. In absolute dollars, other expenses increased $34.4 million when compared to the previous year period, with increases distributed across call center, operations, finance, administration, and marketing administration areas to support the growth of our businesses.

The 37.8% increase in research and development expense dollars was due to ongoing development activities for new products, the addition of 280 new engineering personnel to our staff during the period, and an increase in engineering program costs during the first half of 2007 as a result of our continued emphasis on product innovation. Research and development costs increased $19.5 million when compared with the year-ago period, but declined 110 basis points as a percent of revenue primarily due to the fact that the growth rate of research and development expenditures for the period (37.8%) was slower than the growth rate of revenues (63.6%).
