We intend to develop and expand our strategic relationships to enhance our ability to offer value-added semiconductor product solutions to our customers, penetrate new markets and strengthen the technological leadership of our product solutions. Subject to the restrictions and consent requirements under our Merger Agreement with onsemi during the interim period of the pending transaction, we also intend to evaluate potential acquisitions of companies and assets to expand our technological expertise and to establish or strengthen our presence and product offerings in selected target markets.

Fabless Semiconductor Manufacturing

We selectively partner with foundries and backend processors to solidify our longstanding key supply chain relationships. This strategy results in a scalable business model, enables us to concentrate on our core competencies of research and development and product design and engineering and reduces our capital expenditures and working capital requirements.

3

Table of Contents

Our fabless semiconductor manufacturing strategy allows us to maintain a variable cost model in which we do not incur most of our manufacturing costs until our product solutions have been shipped and invoiced to our customers.

Research and Development

We conduct ongoing R&D programs that focus on advancing our existing technologies, improving our current product solutions, developing new products, improving design and manufacturing processes, enhancing the quality and performance of our product solutions and expanding our technologies to serve new markets. Our goal is to provide our customers with innovative solutions that address their needs and improve their competitive positions.

Certain R&D programs focus on the development of accurate, easy-to-use, reliable and intuitive human experiences for electronic devices. Our interface technologies are designed to enhance a diverse array of products, and we believe the interface is a key factor in the differentiation of many of our products. Edge AI is a focus area for us in enabling improved performance and enhanced user experience in many of these products. We believe our technologies enable us to provide customers with product solutions that offer advantages over alternative technologies in terms of functionality, size, power consumption, durability and reliability. We also intend to pursue strategic relationships and acquisitions to enhance our R&D capabilities, leverage our technology and shorten our time to market with new technological applications.

Our research, design and engineering teams frequently work directly with our customers to design solutions for specific applications. We focus on enabling our customers to overcome technical barriers and improve the performance of their products. We believe our engineering know-how and electronic systems expertise provide meaningful benefits to our customers by enabling them to concentrate on their core competencies of production and marketing.

We conduct R&D activities in the United States with additional design and development teams located in various countries that perform specific activities under the direction of our U.S. headquarters.

Customers

Our customers include many of the world’s largest mobile and PC OEMs, based on unit shipments, as well as many large Edge AI IoT OEMs, automotive manufacturers and a variety of consumer electronics manufacturers. Our demonstrated track record of technological leadership, design innovation, product performance, cost-effectiveness and on-time deliveries has contributed to our position as a go-to supplier of human experience semiconductor product solutions. We believe our strong relationship with our OEM customers, many of which are also currently developing product solutions, aligned with our target markets, will continue to position us as a preferred partner.

We generally supply our products to OEMs through their contract manufacturers and original design manufacturers (“ODM”), supply chain partners or distributors. We consider both the OEMs and their contract manufacturers or supply chain partners to be our customers, as well as in some cases, our distributors. Both the OEMs and their partners may determine the design and pricing requirements and make the overall decision regarding the use of our semiconductor product solutions in their products. The contract manufacturers and distributors place product purchase orders with us, take title to the products upon delivery and pay us directly for those purchases. The majority of these customers do not have return rights except under applicable warranty provisions.

Sales and Marketing

We sell our product solutions for incorporation into the products of our OEM customers. We generate sales through direct sales employees as well as outside sales representatives, distributors and value-added resellers. Our sales personnel receive substantial technical assistance and support from our internal technical marketing and engineering resources due to the highly technical nature of our product solutions. Sales frequently result from multi-level engagements that involve our senior management, design engineers and sales personnel interacting with our customers’ decision makers throughout the product development and order process.

See “Part II – Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 17. Revenue” for additional information on revenue by geographic location and product category.

Manufacturing

We employ a fabless semiconductor manufacturing platform through third-party relationships. We currently utilize third-party semiconductor wafer manufacturers to supply silicon wafers integrating our proprietary design specifications. The completed silicon wafers are forwarded to third-party package and test processors for further processing into die and packaged ASICs, as applicable, which are then used in our custom module products or offered as an ASIC-based solution.

4

Table of Contents

After processing and testing, the die and ASICs are consigned to various contract manufacturers for assembly or shipped directly to our customers. During the assembly process, our die or ASIC is either combined with other components to complete the module for our custom product solutions or the ASIC is maintained as a standalone finished good. The finished assembled product is subsequently shipped directly to our customers or to our contract manufacturers for integration into their products.

We believe our third-party manufacturing strategy provides a scalable business model, enables us to concentrate on our core competencies of research and development, technological advances and product design and engineering and reduces our capital investment.

Our third-party contract manufacturers and semiconductor fabricators are predominantly Asia-based organizations. We generally provide our contract manufacturers with six-month rolling forecasts of our production requirements. As a result of past supply constraints and capacity shortages affecting the global semiconductor industry, we entered into long-term capacity and pricing agreements with certain suppliers. Our reliance on these parties exposes us to vulnerability owing to our dependence on a few sources of supply. In some cases, we have alternative sources of supply to mitigate supplier risk. We may establish relationships with other contract manufacturers to reduce our dependence on any single source of supply.

Periodically, we purchase inventory from our contract manufacturers when a customer delays its delivery schedule or cancels its order. In such circumstances, we consider a write-down to reduce the carrying value of the inventory purchased to its net realizable value. We charge write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving and non-usable inventory to its net realizable value and charge such write-downs to cost of revenue. We also record a liability and charge to cost of revenue the estimated losses on inventory we are obligated to purchase from our contract manufacturers when such losses become probable from customer delays or order cancellations. In addition, the impact of entering into long-term capacity agreements could create a significant inventory write-down if the end customer demand substantially declines.

Competition

We compete against many global and local companies. To win, we focus on delivering exactly what our customers need: top-quality products, advanced technology, strong technical support, flexible global delivery, reliable supply and competitive pricing. Across our product end markets, our principal competitors include:

•Processor manufacturers – MPU and MCU makers

•Wireless connectivity providers – Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, BLE, Zigbee, Thread, ULE

•Touch sensor and IC manufacturers

•Providers of systems on modules and single board computers

•Semiconductor and subsystem manufacturers

•Embedded computing platforms and systems providers

Intellectual Property Rights

Our ability to compete successfully depends in part on our ability to maintain the proprietary aspects of our technologies and products. We pursue an active intellectual property strategy designed to support innovation, protect competitive advantage and enable strategic collaborations.

As of June 2026, we held 2,344 active patents and 661 pending patent applications worldwide that expire between 2026 and 2046. Collectively, these patents and patent applications cover various aspects of our key technologies, including those for touch sensing, voice processing, secure biometrics, display drivers, touch and display integration, docks and adapters, video interfaces, wired and wireless connectivity, audio processing, video processing, edge computing, open AI tools and computer vision. Our proprietary firmware and software, including source code, are protected by copyright laws and trade secret laws.

Our technology portfolio spans ICs, firmware, software and mechanical hardware. The combination of these technologies within our products, along with the complexity of customer-specific customizations and the length of design cycles, provides a further barrier to replication and unauthorized use.

While we rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, confidentiality agreements and other legal and contractual protections, no single measure offers complete assurance and these measures may provide only limited protection. Accordingly, we continuously evaluate our IP protections and practices to safeguard our innovation assets in a dynamic global environment.

Risks Related to Proposed Merger between Synaptics and onsemi

The completion of the proposed Merger with onsemi may be delayed or not occur at all for a variety of reasons, including that the Merger Agreement is terminated, and the failure to complete the Merger could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations and the market price of our common stock.

The completion of the proposed Merger with onsemi is subject to customary closing conditions, some of which are beyond our and onsemi’s control, including (1) the approval of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote (the “required Stockholder Vote”), (2) the expiration or early termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”), and the approval of the Merger under certain other antitrust and foreign investment regimes, (3) the absence of any order, injunction or law of certain jurisdictions prohibiting the Merger, (4) the effectiveness of the registration statement pursuant to which shares of onsemi common stock to be issued in the Merger will be registered with the SEC, (5) the approval for listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market of shares of onsemi common stock to be issued in the Merger, (6) the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties, subject to certain materiality and other standards set forth in the Merger Agreement, (7) compliance in all material respects with the other party’s covenants and other obligations under the Merger Agreement, (8) the absence of a continuing material adverse effect with respect to each of us or onsemi, and (9) the receipt by each party of customary closing tax opinions regarding the intended tax treatment of the Merger. There can be no assurance that the Merger will be completed in the expected timeframe, or at all. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the parties have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to take all actions reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger, including obtaining all required or necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, and cooperating to obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to complete the Merger.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including (1) by either us or onsemi if the Merger is not completed by June 25, 2027, which date may be extended for up to three periods of three months each, in each case under certain circumstances (the “End Date”), (2) by either us or onsemi if any court or governmental authority of a specified jurisdiction has issued a final non-appealable order or injunction prohibiting the Merger, (3) by onsemi prior to the required Stockholder Vote if our Board of Directors fails to include in our proxy statement its recommendation to stockholders to vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement or changes its recommendation, (4) by us prior to the required Stockholder Vote in order to accept a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) (subject to payment of a termination fee, described below), (5) by either us or onsemi if we fail to receive the required Stockholder Vote at our stockholder meeting (including any adjournments and postponements thereof), or (6) by either party if the other party materially breaches its covenants, or breaches its representations and warranties, in the Merger Agreement such that the applicable conditions to closing would not be satisfied, subject in certain cases to the right of the breaching party to cure the breach. We and onsemi may also terminate the Merger Agreement by mutual written consent.

Upon termination of the Merger Agreement, we, under specified circumstances, including termination by us to accept a Superior Proposal or by onsemi following a change in recommendation by our Board of Directors, will be required to pay onsemi a termination fee of $235.0 million (the “Synaptics Termination Fee”). Additionally, onsemi, under specified circumstances, including termination following an injunction arising in connection with certain antitrust or foreign investment laws, or failure to receive certain required regulatory approvals of specified governmental authorities by the End Date, will be required to pay us a regulatory termination fee of $320.0 million (the “onsemi Regulatory Termination Fee”).

We and onsemi may also be subject to lawsuits or other demands challenging the Merger or certain disclosures made with respect thereto, and adverse rulings in these lawsuits, or the existence or pendency of these matters, may delay or prevent the Merger from being completed or require us or onsemi to incur significant costs to defend or settle these matters. Any delay in completing the Merger could cause us to fail to realize, or to be delayed in realizing, some or all of the benefits that we expect to achieve if the Merger is successfully completed within the expected time frame.

Table of Contents

If the Merger is not completed, or if there are delays in completing the Merger, our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common stock may be adversely affected in a number of ways, including:

•the market price of our common stock may decline to the extent that the current market price reflects an assumption that the Merger will be completed;

•if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement, we would be required to pay a termination fee as described above;

•we have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant expenses for professional services in connection with the Merger for which we will have received little or no benefit if the Merger is not completed, as well as other significant expenses that may not be recoverable if the Merger is not completed;

•the attention of our management will have been diverted to the Merger rather than our own operations and pursuit of other opportunities that could have been beneficial to us; and

•we may experience negative publicity and/or reactions from our investors, employees, customers, suppliers, distributors and other business partners.

The completion of the proposed Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of closing conditions contained in the Merger Agreement, including certain regulatory approvals which may not be received, may take longer than expected or the receipt of which may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated or that cannot be met, and if these closing conditions are not satisfied or waived, the proposed Merger will not be completed.

Various consents, clearances, approvals, authorizations and declarations of non-objection, or expiration of waiting periods (or extensions thereof), from certain regulatory and governmental authorities in the United States and certain other jurisdictions are conditions to completing the proposed Merger. Regulatory and governmental entities may impose conditions on their respective approvals, in which case lengthy negotiations may ensue among such regulatory or governmental entities, us and onsemi, and we and onsemi may not be required under the terms of the Merger Agreement to accept such conditions. Such conditions, any such negotiations and the process of obtaining such regulatory approvals, consents or clearances, including any potential changes to the terms of the Merger, could have the effect of delaying or preventing the completion of the Merger.

Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, we have agreed to use our reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary to consummate the Merger, including obtaining all required or necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, and cooperating to obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to complete the Merger. Nonetheless, certain conditions to the completion of the Merger are not within our or onsemi’s control, and we cannot predict when or if these conditions will be satisfied (or waived, as applicable). There can be no assurance that all required approvals will be obtained or that all closing conditions will otherwise be satisfied (or waived, if applicable), and, if all required approvals are obtained and all closing conditions are satisfied (or waived, if applicable), we can provide no assurance as to the terms, conditions and timing of such approvals or that the Merger will be completed in a timely manner or at all. Even if regulatory approvals are obtained, it is possible conditions will be imposed that could result in a material delay in, or the abandonment of, the Merger or otherwise have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common stock.

Failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the Merger, delay in realizing those benefits, or significant challenges in integrating our company with onsemi could have an adverse effect on the price of onsemi common stock that our stockholders will own following the completion of the Merger.

We and onsemi have operated and, subject to and until the completion of the Merger, will continue to operate, independently. The success of the Merger, including anticipated benefits and cost savings, will depend, in part, on our and onsemi's ability to successfully integrate our respective operations in a manner that results in various benefits and that does not materially disrupt existing business and strategic relationships or result in a loss of customers. The process of integrating operations could result in a loss of key personnel or cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of one or more of the combined company's businesses. Inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies could adversely affect the combined company. The diversion of management's attention and any delays or difficulties encountered in connection with the Merger and the integration of our company’s and onsemi's operations could have an adverse effect on the business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects of the combined company. If we and onsemi experience difficulties in the integration process, including those listed above, we may not fully realize the

10

Table of Contents

anticipated benefits of the Merger in a timely manner or at all, and the price of onsemi common stock to be issued to our stockholders in the Merger could be adversely affected.

Uncertainty about the Merger may adversely affect relationships with our customers, suppliers, service providers, partners, consultants, and other business counterparties, whether or not the Merger is completed.

In response to the announcement of the Merger, our existing or prospective customers, suppliers, service providers, partners, consultants, and other business counterparties may:

•delay, defer, or cease entering into a business relationship with us or the combined company;

•terminate their relationships with us or the combined company;

•delay or defer other decisions concerning us or the combined company; or

•seek to change the terms on which they do business with us or the combined company.

Any such delays or changes to terms could materially harm our business or, if the Merger is completed, the business of the combined company. Losses of customers, suppliers, service providers, consultants or other important strategic relationships could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Such adverse effects could also be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Merger for any reason, including delays associated with obtaining the requisite regulatory approvals or the approval of our stockholders.

As a result of the Merger, our current and prospective employees could experience uncertainty about their future with us or the combined company. As a result, key employees may depart because of such uncertainty or a desire not to remain with onsemi following the completion of the Merger.

As a result of the Merger, our current and prospective employees could experience uncertainty about their future with us or the combined company, or decide that they do not want to continue their employment with the combined company. As a result, key employees may depart because of such uncertainty or a desire to not remain with onsemi following the completion of the Merger. Losses of officers, key employees or other employees could materially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition. Such adverse effects could also be exacerbated by a delay in the completion of the Merger. We may also experience challenges in hiring new employees during the pendency of the Merger, or if the Merger Agreement is terminated, which could harm our ability to grow our business, execute on our business plans or enhance our operations. If the Merger is consummated, the combined company may be less attractive to current and prospective employees, which could harm the business and prospects of the combined company.

Restrictions under the Merger Agreement may adversely affect our business and operations.

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, we are subject to certain restrictions on the conduct of our business prior to completing the Merger which may adversely affect our ability to execute certain of our business strategies, including, but not limited to, making material acquisitions, disposing of material assets, entering into material agreements, making capital expenditures in excess of specified amounts, repurchasing our capital stock or other equity securities, issuing additional capital stock or other equity securities, or incurring additional indebtedness (in each case, subject to certain exceptions). These limitations may have adverse effects on our existing or planned relationships with our existing or prospective customers, suppliers, service providers, consultants and employees, which could adversely affect our business and operations prior to the completion of the Merger.

Because the consideration to be received by our stockholders in connection with the Merger will include a fixed number of shares of onsemi common stock, and the market price of such shares has fluctuated and will continue to fluctuate, our stockholders cannot be sure of the value of the consideration they will receive in the Merger.

Under the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of ourcommon stock (other than each share of our common stock held in treasury or held or owned by our subsidiaries, onsemi or any of its subsidiaries immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive 1.350 fully paid and non-assessable shares of onsemi common stock. The market value of the consideration our stockholders will receive in the Merger will therefore fluctuate with the market price of onsemi common stock. The implied value of the Merger Consideration to our stockholders has fluctuated since the date of the announcement of the Merger Agreement and will continue to fluctuate until the date the Merger is completed, which could occur a considerable amount of time after the date hereof.

11

Table of Contents

onsemi's share price changes may result from a variety of factors, including, among others, general market and economic conditions, changes in onsemi's and our respective businesses, operations and prospects, risks inherent in the respective businesses, changes in market assessments of the likelihood that the Merger will be completed and/or the value that may be generated by the Merger and changes with respect to expectations regarding the timing of the Merger and regulatory considerations. Many of these factors are beyond both our and onsemi's control. In particular, the market price of onsemi common stock has declined since the Merger Agreement was entered into and may continue to decline, which has decreased, and may continue to decrease, the value of the Merger Consideration.

The Merger Agreement contains provisions that could discourage or deter a potential competing acquirer from making a favorable alternative transaction proposal to us and, in specified circumstances, could require us to pay a substantial termination fee to onsemi.

Under the Merger Agreement, we are subject to customary "no-shop" restrictions and are not permitted, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement, to initiate, solicit or knowingly encourage or facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal or offer by or with a third party with respect to an acquisition proposal and to furnish nonpublic information to, or engage in discussions or negotiations with, a third party interested in pursuing an alternative business combination transaction. Further, our Board of Directors has agreed to include in the proxy statement for the Merger its recommendation that our stockholders vote in favor of the Merger, subject to exceptions for superior proposals and other situations where failure to effect a recommendation change would be inconsistent with our Board of Directors' fiduciary duties. Upon the termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including, among others, the termination by onsemi in the event of a Change of Recommendation (as defined in the Merger Agreement) by our Board of Directors, we would be required to pay onsemi the Synaptics Termination Fee. Such provisions of the Merger Agreement could discourage or deter a third party that may be willing to pay more than onsemi for our outstanding common stock from considering or proposing such an acquisition of our company.

Litigation may arise in connection with the Merger, which could be costly, prevent consummation of the Merger, divert management's attention and otherwise materially harm our business.

Securities class action lawsuits and derivative lawsuits are often brought against public companies that have entered into merger agreements and/or their directors and officers. A negative outcome in any such lawsuit could result in substantial costs to us, including any costs associated with the indemnification of directors and officers. Regardless of the outcome of any future litigation related to the Merger, such litigation may be time-consuming and expensive and may distract our management from running the day-to-day operations of their business. If the Merger is not consummated for any reason, litigation could be filed in connection with the failure to consummate the Merger. Any litigation related to the Merger may result in negative publicity or an unfavorable impression of us, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock, impair our ability to recruit or retain employees, damage our business relationships or otherwise materially harm our operations and financial performance.

Shares of onsemi common stock to be received by our stockholders as a result of the Merger will have different rights from shares of our common stock.

Upon consummation of the Merger, our stockholders will no longer be stockholders of our company, but will instead become stockholders of onsemi, and their rights as stockholders will be governed by onsemi’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws. The terms of onsemi’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws may be materially different than the terms of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, which currently govern the rights of our stockholders.

Risks Related to Our Industry and Business

We depend on the Core IoT, Enterprise and Automotive and Mobile product applications markets for a substantial portion of our revenue. These are cyclical, competitive and evolving markets that are subject to volatility, economic risk and uncertain growth, which may materially affect our business, revenue, operating results and financial condition.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from our solutions for the Core IoT, Enterprise and Automotive and Mobile markets. These markets are highly competitive and subject to significant volatility, driven by macroeconomic conditions, evolving technical standards, shifting customer preferences, and rapid technological changes. For example, our products are embedded in discretionary consumer and industrial devices such as smartphones, tablets, notebooks, virtual reality systems, and automobiles. As a result, demand in these markets can fluctuate sharply based on factors such as inflation, interest rates, trade restrictions, or recessionary conditions. During periods of slowing growth or heightened uncertainty,

12

Table of Contents

customers may cancel, reduce or defer orders, reduce inventory levels, or adjust production forecasts. In addition, these economic conditions could result in higher inventory levels and the possibility of resulting excess capacity charges from our manufacturing partners if we need to slow production to reduce inventory levels. Macroeconomic conditions can also disrupt our supply chain and increase operational costs. If our manufacturing partners, suppliers, distributors and other third-party partners experience financial challenges, they may demand pricing accommodations, delay payment or become insolvent, which could harm our ability to meet our customer demands or collect revenue. Cyclical patterns in our end markets, particularly consumer electronics and automotive, have historically resulted in reduced demand, price erosion, overcapacity and increased inventory. These cycles are difficult to predict and may result in substantial fluctuations in our operating results. Moreover, each market presents unique risks. For example, the automotive industry is especially sensitive to inflation, interest rates and tariffs, all of which may raise vehicle production costs and depress consumer demand. Existing, new or retaliatory tariffs on automobiles and automobile components imported into the United States could disrupt the automotive supply chain and, in turn, adversely affect our growth rate in that industry.

Our financial results are also subject to pricing pressure, changes in product mix, and limited ability to control input costs. Average selling prices of our products have historically declined, and we expect this trend to continue. To win business or retain key customers, we may offer price concessions that reduce gross margins. Our more recently introduced products often carry higher development and production costs, and increased sales of lower-margin products in emerging markets may dilute overall profitability. Because we do not operate our own manufacturing, assembly, testing or packaging facilities, we may lack flexibility to scale or reduce costs quickly in response to changing demand. Our reliance on third-party partners also makes us more vulnerable to inflationary input costs, capacity constraints and supply chain disruptions. In addition, deterioration in the financial condition of our contract manufacturers or suppliers could limit our ability to secure components or achieve cost efficiencies.

Our future revenue growth also depends, in part, on our ability to maintain and expand our position in these key markets while responding to customer product transitions, emerging competitive solutions, and ongoing technology shifts. If these markets experience slower than expected growth or if demand for our solutions weakens, our revenue and profitability could be materially impacted.

Changes to international trade policies, export controls, and foreign operations expose us to legal, regulatory, and operational risks.

As a global company headquartered in the U.S., we are subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations governing import, export, trade restrictions and economic sanctions. These restrictions may prohibit sales to certain countries, entities, or individuals, or require export licenses for certain technologies. Many of our customers, suppliers and contract manufacturers are foreign companies or have significant foreign operations, and many of the components used in our products are sourced from Asia.

Tariffs on imported components, especially from Asia, could increase our production costs, disrupt supply chains, or make our products and our customers’ end products less competitive in global markets. For example, in calendar 2025 and 2026, the U.S. government announced new tariffs on imports from several countries, including China, prompting reciprocal tariffs. Tariffs on our customers’ products may reduce their global competitiveness, particularly in China. Some OEMs in our industry have responded with short-term price adjustments and shifted production and sourcing outside of China. Additionally, in January 2026, the U.S. government implemented a 25% tariff on certain imported semiconductors and chips not intended for use in the U.S. These policies and the continued uncertainty and ongoing developments around trade policy could materially impact our sourcing strategy and component costs, increase our manufacturing costs or require changes to our supply chain operations. Moreover, these tariffs and any other trade restrictions imposed on our customers or suppliers could adversely affect our financial results and position through reduced demand for our products and solutions, cancelled orders, supply chain disruptions, increased transaction costs, and increased expenses. If the United States’ relationship with countries subject to increased tariffs results in additional trade disputes, trade protection measures, retaliatory actions and increased barriers, policies that favor domestic industries, or increased import or export licensing requirements or restrictions, then our deployment of resources in jurisdictions affected by such measures could be misaligned and our operations may be adversely affected. We are actively evaluating strategies to mitigate such risks, including potential sourcing diversification or partnerships with U.S.-based manufacturers.

Geopolitical instability, including in the Middle East, Taiwan, or U.S.-China relations, could disrupt access to critical markets or destabilize key supply chain and logistics corridors. For example, the ongoing conflict and military escalations involving the United States, Israel, Iran and other countries in the Middle East and beyond have increased geopolitical tensions and uncertainty across the broader region, including sanctions and restrictions affecting key transportation routes such as the Suez Canal and the Strait of Hormuz, contributing to volatility in global energy prices. As a result, we may experience disruptions to transportation routes and supply chains, including those involving third-party vendors, as well as higher transportation and logistics costs and broader inflationary pressures, which could adversely affect our revenue and

13

Table of Contents

gross margin. The extent and duration of these impacts remain uncertain, and further escalation and continued duration could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results. Continuation or escalations of hostilities could also trigger new or expanded U.S. sanctions or export controls affecting parties or regions with which we do business. The developments could lead to delayed shipments, increased costs, or reduced revenue in impacted markets.

Further escalation in global or U.S.–China trade tensions could weaken China’s economy and reduce demand from customers located in China or selling into that market, which may affect our revenue and operations. Although we have not yet seen widespread tariff-related price increases passed through to us, our customers may respond by requesting pricing accommodations or shifting demand to alternative suppliers. Changes in trade policies or future tariffs could lead to further volatility in customer demand and order behavior. We may also experience fluctuations in order timing as customers adjust their purchases in response to tariffs or logistics concerns, including pulling forward orders into earlier quarters. These shifts may not reflect actual demand and could reduce volumes in future periods.

Additionally, our international operations, including in Taiwan, China, South Korea, Hong Kong, and throughout Europe and Asia, expose us to risks such as unexpected regulatory changes, labor law shifts, currency fluctuations, public health emergencies, and environmental compliance burdens.

Export control regulations are also evolving. New or expanded restrictions or sanctions—such as those recently imposed by the U.S. on China and Russia—may limit our ability to sell to or source from affected parties. These controls may cover foreign-produced items, advanced technologies, or entities on the U.S. Entity List. If we are unable to serve these customers, they may turn to domestic solutions or competitors not subject to similar restrictions. Such developments may materially impact our revenue and future business opportunities in these regions. Maintaining compliance with global trade and export regulations is increasingly complex, time-consuming, and resource-intensive. Failure to comply could result in fines, reputational harm, or limitations on our ability to operate in key international markets.

We face intense competition and our success depends on our ability to deliver innovative, high-performance solutions.

We operate in intensely competitive markets characterized by price erosion, rapid technological change, and competition from major domestic and international companies. Some of our current and potential competitors may offer bundled solutions; introduce new products with disruptive technologies and AI-enhanced features; or benefit from greater brand recognition, longer operating histories, larger customer bases and more extensive resources in sales, R&D, and manufacturing. As a result, they may be able to devote greater resources to promotion, negotiate lower prices for raw materials and components, deliver products at lower prices, or respond more quickly to customer requirements.

To compete effectively, we must win design opportunities with OEM customers, meet their development timelines, and align our solutions with their technical and commercial objectives. One of our core business strategies is to win competitive bid selection processes with OEM customers to design our products into their platforms. These selection processes are often lengthy and require significant design and development investment, with no assurance of winning a contract or generating revenue. Delays in our design cycle, failure to anticipate market needs, or inability to align our products with customer roadmaps may result in missed opportunities. If a customer designs another supplier’s product into one of its product platforms, it is more difficult for us to achieve future design wins with that platform because changing suppliers involves significant cost, time, effort and risk on the part of that customer. This risk is particularly pronounced in markets such as Automotive, where long design cycles, combined with failure to win a design-in, could lock us out of a customer for several years. If we fail to win key design opportunities, or if we are not perceived as a technology or industry leader, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially harmed. Also, a design win does not guarantee revenue. Customers may reduce or cease purchases at any time—for example, if their products are not commercially successful. If we fail to convert design wins into sales, our operating results could be materially and adversely affected.

Even if we secure a design win, our revenue depends on the commercial success of the customer’s product. If that product is delayed, fails to meet expectations, or is discontinued, our sales may not materialize. Additionally, if our interfaces fail to meet customer performance, cost, or integration requirements during development, projects may be canceled altogether. The timing and cost of our development efforts may exceed expectations, especially as we invest significant engineering, testing, and support resources long before volume production begins. We may not recover these costs if the product does not launch or is replaced by an alternative solution.

Failure to innovate, keep pace with customer expectations and win key design opportunities, convert such opportunities into sales, or offer compelling features at competitive prices could materially harm our market position and financial performance.

We are exposed to risks related to the use of artificial intelligence by us and our competitors.

We are integrating AI and ML technologies into our products, services, and internal processes, including in edge computing, voice and vision interfaces, and wireless connectivity. The rapid pace of AI innovation may challenge our ability to remain competitive if we fail to keep pace with technological developments or if our competitors more effectively deploy AI. We must invest substantial resources to enhance and develop new technologies, including hiring and retaining skilled engineers, adopting advanced tools and scaling R&D. Even with investment, our technologies may fail to transition from development to cost-effective production or customers may choose competitors’ solutions due to price, performance or strategic alignment. While AI and ML technologies offer opportunities to enhance functionality and efficiency, they also present significant risks. These include unintended consequences, such as inaccurate or biased outputs, potential misuse by personnel, vulnerabilities in third-party AI tools and heightened scrutiny under evolving laws and regulations governing data privacy, algorithmic transparency and ethical AI use. Failure to comply with such regulations could result in enforcement actions, fines, or restrictions on our business. Additionally, the use of AI may expose us to intellectual property risks, including claims of infringement, misappropriation, or loss of proprietary information. Any of these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

Our growth depends on the successful development of emerging markets, including Core IoT, which may be slower, more competitive, or more regulated, which could result in our losing or failing to gain market share and suffering reduced revenue.

We face uncertainty in the development and growth of new and emerging markets, such as Core IoT. These markets may develop slower than anticipated or rely on competing technologies that do not include our product solutions. The success of our solutions in these markets depends on several factors, including: the pace of adoption of wireless and other enabling technologies; the emergence and standardization of protocols for device interoperability; the performance, size, power consumption, and cost-effectiveness of our solutions relative to alternatives; and OEM and end-user preferences. Many of these products are still emerging, and demand for them may vary significantly from one period to another. We may face well-established competitors with strong customer relationships, brand recognition, and more extensive resources. If these markets fail to develop as expected, or if our technologies are not widely adopted, our ability to grow revenue, maintain profitability, and increase market share could be significantly impaired. A sustained failure to gain traction in these markets may also require us to restructure certain product or market investments.

In addition, unfavorable developments with respect to global laws and regulations—including those affecting artificial intelligence and data governance—could slow or limit adoption of products in these markets, impede our strategic plans, or require changes to our offerings.

We also face increased competition as a result of China actively promoting its domestic semiconductor industry through policy changes and investment. These actions, as well as China-U.S. trade barriers, may restrict our participation in the China market or may prevent us from competing effectively with Chinese companies or companies from other countries that China favors over the United States. Competition could decrease our prices, reduce our sales, adversely affect our gross margins and/or decrease our market share.

We rely on a concentrated base of OEMs and ODM customers, and the loss of a major customer, or such customer’s failure to renew an existing project or contract, or any changes in their purchasing behavior, or the failure of their products to achieve commercial success, could materially harm our business, financial condition and operating results.

Our products are not sold directly to end users. Instead, our solutions are integrated into systems sold by OEMs and ODMs, often through contract manufacturers that serve them. A significant portion of our revenue is generated from a limited number of large customers. This concentration makes us highly dependent on the purchasing behavior of a few OEMs and ODMs and increases our exposure to revenue volatility. If any of these key customers reduce, cancel or stop placing orders, fail to renew an existing project or contract, or shift to a competing supplier for our high-volume products, our financial results could be adversely affected. The risk is heightened if customers are impacted by operational disruptions or trade restrictions, particularly in jurisdictions such as China. Because contract manufacturers often serve the same OEM, a reduction in demand from that OEM could significantly impact our revenue across multiple customer accounts. The adverse effect could be more substantial if we are unable to offset the loss by generating increased orders from other existing customers or by securing new design wins. Significant reductions in sales to our largest customers, the loss of

15

other major customers, a general decrease in demand, or our failure to expand our customer base, particularly in key markets, would materially impact our future operating results.

Even when we meet our customers’ technical and pricing requirements, our success ultimately depends on the commercial success of their products that incorporate our solutions. If those products fail to gain market acceptance or are discontinued, or if customers decide not to continue with follow-on projects, our revenue may decline.

Additionally, our customers generally do not enter into long-term volume purchase commitments. As a result, even longstanding relationships do not guarantee future revenue. Shifts in customer strategies, product transitions, or macroeconomic factors could lead to reduced demand for our products. We may also incur significant R&D and sales-related expenses in support of these customers, without assurance of recovering those investments.

We depend on third parties for manufacturing and supply, and face risks from inventory imbalances, demand uncertainty, and component shortages that may disrupt our operations and reduce margins.

We depend on our contract manufacturers and semiconductor fabricators, primarily located in Asia, to produce and assemble our products. These third parties are responsible for maintaining satisfactory manufacturing yields and delivery schedules. We provide our contract manufacturers with six-month rolling forecasts of our production requirements, but generally do not have long-term agreements that guarantee production capacity, pricing, or lead times. If end customer demand fluctuates unexpectedly, either rising sharply or declining, our ability to respond is constrained by limited capacity control and long lead time. Our manufacturers also serve other customers, some of whom may have greater volume commitments or purchasing leverage, which could lead to a re-prioritization of production at our expense. Qualifying new contract manufacturers, specifically semiconductor foundries, is time consuming and might result in unforeseen manufacturing and operations problems. We may also encounter lower manufacturing yields and longer delivery schedules in commencing volume production of new products that we introduce, which could increase our costs or disrupt our supply of such products. In addition, a foundry or supplier may become unavailable to us as a result of economic or political instability. The loss of relationships with our contract manufacturers or assemblers, or their inability to conduct their manufacturing and assembly services for us as anticipated in terms of capacity, cost, quality and timeliness, could adversely affect our ability to fill customer orders in accordance with required delivery, quality and performance requirements and adversely affect our operating results.

We also face significant risk from forecasting errors, inventory imbalances, and order variability. We typically sell pursuant to customer purchase orders rather than long-term purchase commitments, and customers may delay, cancel, or fail to honor their orders. If we overestimate demand, we may hold excess or obsolete inventory; if we underestimate, we may lack sufficient inventory or manufacturing capacity to meet demand. Many of our customers have shifted to just-in-time inventory strategies, increasing our exposure to short-notice adjustments. Because our forecasts are based on assumptions about customer behavior, market conditions, and development timelines, any of which may prove inaccurate, our inventory and revenue may vary significantly from expectations.

Supply chain disruptions can also impact upstream demand for our solutions. Our products are used in complex devices and systems that depend on numerous components. Delays in one part of the chain can lead to a broader reduction in product builds that include our technologies. For example, the current global shortage and elevated pricing of certain memory components across the broader electronics supply chain have, at times, influenced the timing of orders for certain products, particularly for smaller customers. Limited visibility into future availability, timing, increased associated costs, and the potential for these conditions to persist could affect customer development timelines, purchasing behavior, production schedules, booking patterns, and the timing or visibility of orders in future periods. If these conditions persist, our customers’ ability to manufacture their end products may be limited, or they may adjust production schedules, delay product launches, or revise demand forecasts, which in turn could lead them to reduce, delay or cancel orders for our products, even when demand for their end products remains strong. Additionally, the current shortage and resulting price increase for memory components also may lead our customers to increase prices of their end products, which could lead to decreased demand for those products, ultimately negatively impacting orders for our products. If customers delay orders of our products for longer periods of time due to such supply conditions, or hold inventory of our products for longer periods of time, we could experience a decline in our revenue and excess inventory. In addition, we face ongoing risks from component and material shortages. Key inputs, including silicon wafers, substrates, and packaging materials, are sourced from a limited number of foreign suppliers. If these suppliers face capacity constraints, pricing shifts, or economic disruptions, we may be unable to obtain sufficient quantities or meet production timelines.

Without long-term supply contracts, we are exposed to price increases and allocation risk. If larger or better-financed supply chain customers secure preferential access to limited supplies, our production and costs could be adversely affected. Future shortages or procurement delays may cause missed shipments, customer dissatisfaction, and lost revenue opportunities.

Altogether, uncertainty in demand forecasting, reliance on outsourced manufacturing, and limited sourcing alternatives may materially impact our operating results, margins, and ability to fulfill customer expectations.

Defects, security vulnerabilities, or performance failures in our products could result in liability, reputational harm, and lost revenue opportunities.

We develop complex solutions that are integrated into customer devices across the IoT, Enterprise, Automotive, and Mobile markets. These products must meet high standards for performance, security, and reliability. Despite rigorous testing, our solutions may contain defects, errors, or vulnerabilities that result from issues in design, materials, manufacturing, packaging, or software integration. Development in new technology domains, including use of smaller geometry nodes and advanced AI features, increases the risk of product failure or low yield. Vulnerabilities can also be introduced via third-party or open source software, or through malicious actions by external actors. Such defects, errors or security vulnerabilities could give rise to significant costs (including costs related to developing solutions, recalling products, repairing or replacing defective products, writing down defective inventory or indemnification obligations under our agreements), could result in the loss of sales and divert the attention of our personnel from our product development efforts. In addition, defects, errors or security vulnerabilities in our products could result in failure to achieve market acceptance, a loss of design wins, a shifting of business to our competitors, product liability claims and litigation or regulatory action against us, and could harm our reputation, our relationships with customers and our ability to attract new customers, as well as the perceptions of our brand. Further, our business liability insurance may be inadequate, may not cover the claims, and future coverage may be unavailable on acceptable terms, which could adversely impact our financial results.

Our customers often integrate our solutions into devices that interact with untrusted systems or process large volumes of data. If our solutions fail, or introduce security risks to the customer’s end product, it may result in operational disruption, loss or theft of sensitive data, regulatory exposure, or product recalls. Mitigation tools, such as firmware patches or configuration updates, may not always be timely or fully effective. Any such failures could harm our reputation, delay or reduce revenue, lead to loss of design wins, shift business to competitors, or result in legal claims or indemnity obligations. While we maintain product liability insurance, coverage may be limited or unavailable in future periods.

Additionally, we generally warrant our products for 12 months from the date of delivery. Although we have not experienced widespread recalls, manufacturing defects or quality issues could result in revenue deferrals, warranty costs, or strained customer relationships. Addressing such issues can divert engineering resources from strategic initiatives and negatively affect profitability.

If we fail to manage our growth and scale our operations effectively, our infrastructure and resources could be strained, our ability to effectively manage our business could be diminished and our operating results could suffer.

As we expand our product portfolio and customer base, we must scale our global organization efficiently to meet increasing demand. This includes the ability to: hire, train and retain talent globally; plan, expand, or optimize facilities; enhance operational and management systems; and scale development and production capacity. We also may incur significant expenses in anticipation of future orders that do not materialize, particularly in Core IoT, Enterprise, Automotive, and Mobile markets. These upfront investments—whether in personnel, infrastructure, or supply—could negatively impact profitability if not matched by revenue growth.

In some cases, customers may require rapid increases in design or production support, placing short-term strain on our internal teams and contract manufacturers. If we or our partners cannot expand quickly enough, we may lose revenue opportunities or damage customer relationships. Failure to manage growth and align resources with demand could materially impact our business, operational efficiency, and financial performance.

Our ability to protect our intellectual property, avoid infringement of third-party rights, and manage licensing compliance, including with open source software, is critical to our competitiveness and subject to legal risk.

We rely on a combination of patents, trade secrets, trademarks, copyrights, and confidentiality agreements to protect our proprietary technologies. However, we cannot be certain that our technologies and products do not and will not infringe issued patents or other third-party proprietary rights. Patents may be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented. Trade secrets may be compromised if confidentiality measures fail or are not consistently applied, and trademark rights may be challenged or unenforceable in certain jurisdictions. Our protection efforts face limitations, particularly in foreign markets such as China, where IP enforcement is less predictable. In the past, we have not always required all employees, consultants, suppliers, or partners to enter into formal written agreements for the protection of our technology including confidentiality or invention assignment agreements, and some may seek to assert rights in our technologies or use them without authorization. The risk of inadvertent disclosure is further heightened by employee use of generative or third-party

17

Table of Contents

AI tools. Any claims, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of resources, including the attention of management, and could require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which may include terms that may not be commercially reasonable, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, we license certain technology used in and for our products from third parties, including open source components. Open source software is generally made available “as is” and may impose obligations that require us to disclose our own source code or make our products freely available. Although we monitor our use of such software, inadvertent noncompliance could expose us to claims, require product modifications, or restrict product distribution. Also, there can be no assurances that such third-party technology will remain available to us on commercially acceptable terms.

We cannot be certain that our products do not infringe third-party intellectual property rights. If third parties assert claims of infringement, we could be subject to significant litigation expenses, damage awards, or injunctions. We may be forced to obtain licenses on unfavorable terms, redesign products, or cease selling certain offerings. In some cases, licenses may not be available at all.

We may also have to pay substantial damages to third parties or indemnify customers or licensees for damages they suffer if the products they purchase from us or the technology they license from us violates any third-party intellectual property rights. Any adverse outcome in a licensing dispute or infringement action could materially impact our ability to manufacture, market, or support our products. Additionally, defending or enforcing our rights, whether successful or not, can result in substantial legal expenses, operational disruption, and diversion of management attention, which would have an adverse effect on our operating results.

Foreign exchange rate volatility could adversely affect our margins, pricing and competitiveness.

A substantial portion of our revenue is generated from customers located outside the United States, while a significant portion of our operating expenses, including R&D, supply chain and employee compensation, are denominated in foreign currencies such as the New Taiwan dollar, Indian Rupee, Japanese yen, Chinese yuan and Israeli shekel. Although we transact business predominantly in U.S. dollars and we invoice and collect our sales in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in exchange rates can materially impact our results of operations and financial position. A strengthening U.S. dollar could reduce the local currency revenue of our international customers, potentially weakening demand or triggering pricing pressure. Conversely, a weakening of the U.S. dollar could increase our cost of goods sold and operating expenses and cause our overseas vendors to require renegotiation of either the prices or currency we pay for their goods and services. In the future, customers may negotiate pricing and make payments in non-U.S. currencies. If our overseas vendors or customers require us to transact business in non-U.S. currencies, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could affect our cost of goods, operating expenses and operating margins and could result in exchange losses. Moreover, our reliance on contract manufacturers and suppliers based in Asia subjects us to risks if their local currencies appreciate significantly. Exchange rate movements may also lead to gains or losses on intercompany balances, supplier payments or cash held in foreign subsidiaries. Hedging foreign currencies can be difficult, especially if the currency is not freely traded. We cannot predict the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our operating results. Prolonged shifts in currency rates may make our products more expensive to produce or less competitive in certain markets. Accordingly, foreign currency fluctuations have and could continue to negatively affect our revenue, gross margins and operating income.

We face risks associated with security breaches or cyberattacks.

We face risks associated with security breaches or cyberattacks of our computer systems or those of our third-party representatives, vendors and service providers. Although we have implemented security procedures and controls to address these threats, our systems may still be vulnerable to data theft, computer viruses, programming errors, ransomware and other attacks by third parties or similar disruptive problems. If our systems, or systems owned by third parties affiliated with our company, were breached or attacked, the proprietary and confidential information of our company, our employees and our customers could be disclosed and we may be required to incur substantial costs and liabilities, including the following: liability for stolen assets or information; fines imposed on us by governmental authorities for failure to comply with privacy laws or for disclosure of any personally identifiable information as a part of such attack; costs of repairing damage to our systems; lost revenue and income resulting from any system downtime caused by such breach or attack; loss of competitive advantage if our proprietary information is obtained by competitors as a result of such breach or attack; increased costs of cyber security protection; costs of incentives we may be required to offer to our customers or business partners to retain their business; damage to our reputation; increased cyber liability and data breach insurance premiums; and expenses to rectify the consequences of the security breach or cyberattack. Third parties with which we conduct business, such as foundries, assembly and test contractors and distributors, have access to certain portions of our sensitive data, and we rely on third parties to store and otherwise process data for us. We are dependent on the information security systems of these third parties and they face substantial security risks similar to those outlined above. Any security breaches or incidents or other unauthorized access by third parties to the systems of our suppliers, service providers or other third

18

Table of Contents

parties with access to our sensitive data, or the existence of computer viruses, ransomware or other malicious code in their data, software or hardware, could result in disruptions or failures of systems used in our business. Any of the foregoing, or the perception any of them has occurred, could have a material adverse impact on our business, operations and financial results. In addition, any compromise of security from a security breach or cyberattack could deter customers or business partners from entering into transactions that involve providing confidential information to us. As a result, any compromise to the security of our systems could have a material adverse effect on our business, reputation, financial condition and operating results.

Risks Related to Other Acquisitions and Strategic Alliances

In addition to the risks described related to the Merger, any other acquisitions or strategic alliances that we undertake could be difficult to execute or integrate, may not achieve expected results, and could disrupt our business or dilute stockholder value.

We expect to continue to pursue opportunities to acquire other businesses or technologies, or to engage in strategic alliances, related to other businesses and technologies to complement our current solutions, expand into existing or new markets, enhance our technical capabilities or otherwise accelerate growth. However, we may be unable to identify suitable targets or partners, or complete transactions on acceptable terms. Rising valuations, regulatory scrutiny, or competitive interest may limit our ability to secure attractive opportunities.

If completed, any such acquisitions and alliances carry significant risks. We may be unable to integrate acquired businesses effectively, align operations, or achieve expected synergies. Integration may be complicated by differences in systems, culture, or geography—particularly in international transactions. Acquisitions or alliances may disrupt our operations, divert management’s attention, or result in unanticipated liabilities, restructuring costs, or impairment charges.

We may also issue stock, incur debt, or assume contingent liabilities in connection with acquisitions, which could dilute stockholder value or increase our financial risk. If acquired businesses or investments underperform, we may not realize the intended strategic or financial benefits. For example, in fiscal 2026, we recorded a $6.8 million impairment charge related to in process research and development (“IPR&D”) acquired in fiscal 2025, reflecting management’s decision to cease development and commercialization activities for the technology. We also recorded a $5.0 million impairment charge related to the cost method investment due to a significant deterioration in earnings performance of the investee. Additional impairments may arise if other acquisitions or strategic partnerships do not meet our financial expectations.

In addition, strategic alliances may involve joint development, product integration, supply or distribution arrangements, or investment. However, alliances may fail to meet their objectives or be terminated prematurely. If our partners fail to perform, or if anticipated synergies do not materialize, our ability to deliver new products or enter target markets may be impaired. The failure of any acquisition or alliance to achieve its intended benefits could adversely affect our growth, competitiveness, or financial results.

Risks Related to Our Employees

We depend on key personnel who would be difficult to replace and our business will likely be harmed if we lose their services, cannot hire additional qualified personnel or do not manage transitions effectively.

We compete in a highly technical industry that requires a workforce with deep domain expertise in areas such as Edge AI, wireless IP, System on a Chip architecture, video processing and embedded firmware. Our future success depends on our ability to recruit, retain and develop highly skilled engineers, program managers and leadership across our global R&D centers, including in the United States, Taiwan, South Korea, Israel and India. The market for semiconductor engineering talent is highly competitive and employee attrition or difficulty hiring in key geographies could delay product development, reduce innovation or harm customer delivery schedules. In addition, restrictive immigration policies, labor market saturation or compensation pressures could affect our access to technical talent. Our compensation programs, which include cash and share-based compensation award components, have been instrumental in attracting, hiring, motivating and retaining qualified personnel. Our success depends on our continued ability to use our share-based compensation programs to effectively compete for engineering and other technical personnel and professional talent without significantly increasing cash compensation costs. We may also be impacted if a competitor recruits key employees, or we experience attrition in our senior leadership without adequate succession planning. Transitions in executive leadership may result in strategic business and operational changes, shifts in personnel priorities and/or uncertainty among employees, customers and investors. Any failure to effectively manage this transition, or to retain senior leaders in critical roles across the organization, could impact continuity, delay initiatives or reduce morale. Such turnover can also disrupt long-term customer relationships, strategic execution or internal governance.

If we are unable to obtain stockholder approval of share-based compensation award programs or additional shares for such programs, we could be at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace for qualified personnel or may be required to increase the cash element of our compensation program.

Competition for qualified personnel in our industry is extremely intense, particularly for engineering and other technical personnel. This challenge is amplified by our significant presence in Silicon Valley, where competition for talent is particularly fierce. Our compensation program, which includes cash and share-based compensation award components, has been instrumental in attracting, hiring, motivating, and retaining qualified personnel. In particular, we use broad-based equity awards to foster an ownership mindset and align employee incentives with long-term stockholder value. Our success depends on our continued ability to use our share-based compensation programs to effectively compete for engineering and other technical personnel and professional talent without significantly increasing cash compensation costs.

In prior years, proxy advisory firms have recommended that stockholders vote against our equity incentive plan, primarily citing a burn rate that exceeded such firms’ caps or industry norms, and a lower shareholder value transfer (SVT) relative to peers. While we believe these concerns do not adequately reflect our philosophy of broad-based equity participation and its importance to attracting and retaining our talent, such recommendations may influence stockholder voting outcomes. In the future, if we are unable to obtain stockholder approval of our share-based compensation programs or additional shares for such programs, we could be at a competitive disadvantage in the marketplace for qualified personnel or we may be required to increase the cash elements of our compensation program to account for this disadvantage.

Risks Related to Our Future Growth, Capital Requirements and Indebtedness

We may need to raise additional capital to support our growth, and failure to do so on acceptable terms could limit our ability to compete.

To remain competitive and support our strategic initiatives, we must continue investing in research and development, product innovation, marketing, and business development. These efforts may require additional capital beyond our current cash flows. If we are unable to raise funds through equity or debt financing on favorable terms, our ability to expand our business, execute on our roadmap, or pursue strategic acquisitions could be constrained.

Raising capital may also involve risks. Equity financing could dilute existing stockholders and negatively affect our stock price, while debt financing could increase interest expense and impose restrictive covenants. The timing and amount of any needed capital is uncertain and will depend on a variety of factors, including our operating performance, market conditions, and investment opportunities.

Our outstanding debt, credit covenants, and convertible note obligations may limit our financial flexibility, expose us to liquidity risk, and result in stockholder dilution or adverse market impacts.

We have significant outstanding indebtedness, including our 4.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”) and our 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2031 Notes”). We may incur additional debt under our credit agreement or the indentures, which could amplify the risks described below.

Our debt could make it more difficult to meet our obligations, increase our sensitivity to interest rate changes, reduce funds available for operations or investments, and limit our ability to respond to changes in our business or the broader economy. Additionally, the covenants in our credit agreement impose restrictions on our ability to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, create liens, make certain investments, merge or transfer assets, pay dividends or repurchase capital stock, enter into transactions with affiliates, amend subordinated debt, or enter into new lines of business. The credit agreement also contains financial covenants which limit the consolidated total net leverage ratio and the consolidated net interest coverage ratio. If we fail to comply with these covenants and are unable to obtain waivers, we may be in default, which could result in acceleration of our obligations and potential foreclosure on secured assets. Even if we can obtain alternative financing, it may not be on favorable terms.

The 2031 Notes require us to make cash payments upon conversion or a fundamental change, and we may not have sufficient liquidity to do so. Our ability to make scheduled payments of interest under our 2031 Notes, or to refinance such indebtedness, depends on our future performance, including sufficient cash flow from operations for debt service, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control, including those described in this report. If our operating cash flow is insufficient, we may need to raise additional capital, sell assets, or restructure debt, which will depend on conditions in the capital markets and our financial condition at such time, among other factors, which could result in a default on our debt obligations or other material adverse effects on our business and financial condition. Subject to certain conditions, holders of the 2031 Notes can require us to repurchase their notes. Upon conversion of the 2031 Notes in accordance with their terms, other than paying cash in lieu of delivering any fractional shares, we will be required,

20

Table of Contents

under the default settlement method, to settle the principal amount of the 2031 Notes in cash, and any conversion involving cash settlement could significantly affect our liquidity.

The trading price of the 2031 Notes may also be volatile due to fluctuations in our common stock price, and there is currently no active trading market for the 2031 Notes. The 2031 Notes are currently convertible at the holders’ option. If the holders of the 2031 Notes elect to convert their notes during this period or any future period in which the notes become convertible, we may be required to make substantial cash payments and/or issue shares of common stock, which could adversely affect our liquidity and result in dilution to our stockholders.

The conversion of some or all of the 2031 Notes would dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders to the extent we satisfy our conversion obligation by delivering shares of our common stock. Historically, we have elected to satisfy our 2031 Note conversion obligations through the payment of cash in certain circumstances, the issuance of shares of common stock in other circumstances or a combination thereof, to such 2031 Note holders.

In addition, in connection with the issuance of each series of the 2031 Notes, we entered into capped call transactions with certain financial institutions to reduce the potential dilution to holders of our common stock upon any conversion or settlement of the 2031 Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make above the principal amount of such 2031 Notes. The terms of the capped call transactions may be subject to adjustment in connection with the Merger. The counterparties to the capped call transactions or their respective affiliates may engage in hedging activities, such as buying or selling our common stock or related derivatives, which could negatively affect the market price of our common stock.

We may incur material environmental liabilities as a result of prior operations at an acquired company.

In connection with our acquisition in July 2017 of Conexant Systems, we agreed to assume certain environmental liabilities, including remediation of environmental impacts at a property formerly owned and operated by Conexant (“Conexant Site”) and for potential future claims alleging personal injury or property damage related to the environmental impacts at and about the Conexant Site. We continue to incur costs to investigate and remediate the Conexant Site’s environmental impacts, and we are at risk for future personal injury and property damage claims related to the Conexant Site. Various federal, state and local authorities regulate the release of hazardous substances into the environment and can impose substantial fines if our remediation efforts at or about the Conexant Site fail or are deemed inadequate. In addition, changes in laws, regulations and enforcement policies, the discovery of previously unknown contamination at the Conexant Site, the implementation of new technology at the Conexant Site or the establishment or imposition of stricter federal, state or local cleanup standards or requirements with respect to the Conexant Site, could require us to incur additional costs in the future that could have a negative effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

General Risk Factors

Changes in U.S. and foreign tax laws, implementation of Pillar Two and OBBBA, or adverse audit outcomes could materially affect our effective tax rate, financial position, and cash flows.

We are subject to U.S. federal, state and foreign income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we do business, including U.S. taxes on certain foreign subsidiary earnings. Changes in tax laws or regulations, domestically or internationally, could adversely affect our effective tax rate, deferred tax assets, or overall financial condition. In particular, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (“OECD”) Pillar Two framework (“Pillar Two”) introduces a 15% global minimum tax that jurisdictions such as the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, Switzerland, and Japan have begun implementing. We currently do not anticipate a material impact to our fiscal 2026 tax rate or cash flows, but we will continue to monitor legislative developments and recognize any Pillar Two-related amounts as period costs.

In addition, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), enacted on July 4, 2025, significantly amended the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, including permanently extending and modifying certain provisions originally enacted under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Although the provisions currently effective for Synaptics have not had a material impact on our financial statements or cash flows, the interpretation and application of OBBBA will continue to evolve as additional guidance is issued by the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service. Future legislative, regulatory, or administrative developments, as well as changes in our business operations or tax profile, could materially affect our effective tax rate, cash tax obligations, deferred tax assets, financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

We are also subject to periodic examinations by tax authorities, and the calculation of our tax liabilities requires significant judgment. Adjustments may arise from audit resolutions, amended filings, changes in tax interpretations, or expiration of statutes of limitation. Outcomes inconsistent with our expectations could materially impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Our effective tax rate may vary significantly from period to period due to factors such as: shifts in the mix and geographic location of earnings and assets; changes in entity structure or business operations; audit outcomes and related interest or

21

Table of Contents

penalties; revaluations of deferred tax assets or changes in tax credit availability; new tax laws or accounting standards, including implementation of BEPS 2.0 or OBBBA; and our decision to repatriate foreign earnings subject to additional taxes.

We are subject to governmental laws, regulations and other legal obligations related to privacy and data protection.

We collect, use and store personally identifiable information (“PII”) as part of our business and operations. We are subject to federal, state and international laws relating to the collection, use, retention, security and transfer of PII. The legislative and regulatory framework for privacy and data protection issues worldwide is rapidly evolving and is likely to remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. The cost of complying with and implementing these privacy-related and data governance measures could be significant as they may create additional burdensome security, business process, business record or data localization requirements. The theft, loss or misuse of PII collected, used, stored or transferred by us, or any inability, or perceived inability, to adequately address privacy and data protection concerns, even if unfounded, or our failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations, policies, industry standards, contractual obligations or other legal obligations, could result in additional cost and liability to us, including litigation, which could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition.

Environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) matters may adversely affect our relationships with customers and investors.

There is an increasing focus from lawmakers, regulators, investors, customers, employees and other stakeholders concerning ESG matters, including environment, climate, diversity and inclusion, human rights and governance transparency. A number of our customers have adopted, or may adopt, procurement policies that include ESG provisions or requirements that their suppliers should comply with or they may seek to include such provisions or requirements in their procurement terms and conditions. An increasing number of investors are also requiring companies to disclose ESG-related policies, practices and metrics. In addition, various jurisdictions are developing climate-related laws or regulations that could cause us to incur additional direct costs for compliance, as well as indirect costs resulting from our customers, suppliers or additional compliance costs that are passed on to us. These legal and regulatory requirements, as well as investor expectations on ESG practices and disclosures, are subject to change, can be unpredictable and may be difficult and expensive for us to comply with, given the complexity of our supply chain and our outsourced manufacturing. Further, there is an increasing number of anti-ESG initiatives in areas of the United States and elsewhere that may conflict with other regulatory requirements or our various stakeholders’ expectations. If we fail to comply with or meet the evolving legal and regulatory requirements or expectations of our various stakeholders, we may be subject to enforcement actions, required to pay fines, customers may stop purchasing products from us or investors may sell their shares, which could harm our reputation, revenue and results of operations. Additionally, we may be subject to litigation and claims by third parties or regulatory bodies that our stated CGS initiatives and objectives have not been achieved or implemented appropriately. Our actual or perceived failure to achieve our CGS-related initiatives could negatively impact our reputation or harm our business.

The market price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.

The trading price of our common stock has been and may continue to be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, including the following: quarterly financial results, changes in guidance, or perceived success in customer design wins—particularly in our key markets of consumer, automotive, IoT, and mobile applications. As a fabless semiconductor company, we are also exposed to industry cycles characterized by shifts in demand, inventory corrections, overcapacity, and pricing volatility. Additionally, trade restrictions, export controls, and geopolitical tensions—especially involving China, a major region for our supply chain and customers—can significantly impact investor sentiment and contribute to share price volatility. Perceptions of our competitive position in areas such as artificial intelligence, edge computing, and wireless connectivity may also drive valuation changes unrelated to actual performance.

Our trading price may also be affected by broader market factors or rumors involving us, our customers, suppliers, competitors, or potential strategic transactions. Announcements of new technologies, product releases, patent disputes, regulatory developments, executive transitions, or significant customer orders may lead to disproportionate movements in our stock price. In addition, stocks of technology and semiconductor companies have historically experienced significant price and volume fluctuations unrelated to underlying business performance. As a result, public announcements concerning our operations—or even general developments within the semiconductor sector—could cause the market price of our common stock to decline, regardless of our actual results.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

Risk Management and Strategy

Our cybersecurity risk management program is part of our overall approach to enterprise risk management. Our cybersecurity risk management program seeks to protect our information systems by managing and reducing material risks from cybersecurity threats and by responding to and mitigating cybersecurity incidents. We have designed our cybersecurity risk management program using certain industry practices and frameworks as a guide, including those established by the International Organization for Standardization and the National Institute of Standards and Technology, although we may not meet all technical standards, specifications or requirements. We employ a cross-functional approach to preserving the confidentiality, security and availability of the employee, customer, supplier and partner information that we collect and store.

We have implemented cybersecurity processes, measures and controls to assist management in our assessment, identification and management of risks from cybersecurity threats. Our Information Security team monitors events, analyzes threats and coordinates our incident response pursuant to our incident response plan, which includes the process to be followed for reporting of incidents. Our cybersecurity risk management involves identifying information assets, assessing and prioritizing risks and employing various tools and techniques to identify and remediate threats. We also leverage third-party service providers to test and validate our existing processes and procedures. We conduct annual and ongoing security awareness and behavioral change training for employees to educate them on cybersecurity best practices and train them to recognize phishing attempts. We also assess and manage cybersecurity risks associated with third-party service providers, including those in our supply chain or vendors who have access to our data or systems. Our cybersecurity process is iterative, with regular reviews and updates to help improve and respond to a dynamic and continuously evolving threat landscape.

We describe whether and how risks from cybersecurity threats have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, our business strategy, our results of operations or our financial condition under the heading “We face risks associated with security breaches or cyberattacks” included as part of our risk factors disclosures in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of this Annual Report.

We have not experienced a cybersecurity incident which has been determined to be material and the expenses we have incurred from cybersecurity incidents and threats were immaterial, including penalties and settlements, of which there were none.

Governance

Our Board of Directors is responsible for risk management oversight and has delegated to our Audit Committee oversight responsibility for reviewing the effectiveness of our governance and management of cybersecurity risks.The Audit Committee biannually reviews our policies and practices with respect to risk management, including cybersecurity risks, and reports its findings to the full Board of Directors. The Audit Committee also receives a report containing information security risk posture details, remediation plan execution progress and pertinent threat intelligence updates from the heads of the IT Security and Internal Audit departments on a regular basis, typically biannually.At least annually, but more frequently as necessary, threats from cybersecurity risks and our action plans relating to those risks, also are considered by the full Board of Directors during meeting discussions of enterprise risks. Members of management, including the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Information Officer and Chief Legal Officer, may also report directly to the Board of Directors on significant risk management issues, including cybersecurity threats and incidents.

We have an Information Security Management Steering Committee (“ISMS Committee”), comprised of our Chief Information Security Officer (“CISO”), as well as members of our executive team, including our Chief Information Officer and Chief Legal Officer.Our Chief Information Officer and CISO, in coordination with the ISMS Committee, work collaboratively to implement our enterprise-wide cybersecurity strategy, policy, standards, architecture and processes. Our Information Security team communicates with and reports to the CISO, enabling the CISO, Cyber Incident Response Team and ISMS Committee to monitor the prevention, detection, mitigation and remediation of cybersecurity incidents. Our CISO has significant experience managing global IT operations, including strategy, applications, infrastructure, information security, support and execution.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Market Information on Common Stock

Our common stock has been listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (formerly the Nasdaq National Market) under the symbol “SYNA” since January 29, 2002. Prior to that time, there was no public market for our common stock.

Stockholders

As of August 4, 2026, there were approximately 111 holders of record of our common stock. The closing price of our common stock as quoted on the Nasdaq Global Select Market as of August 4, 2026, was $106.56.

Dividends

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We currently plan to retain all earnings to finance the growth of our business, make debt payments or purchase shares under our common stock repurchase program. Payments of any cash dividends in the future will depend on our financial condition, operating results and capital requirements as well as other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors.

Our Credit Agreement and the indenture governing our Senior Notes also place restrictions on the payment of any dividends. For a further description of the terms of the Credit Agreement and our Senior Notes indenture, see “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 8. Debt and Revolving Credit Facility.”

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

From time to time, our Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program. Most recently, on August 5, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program to repurchase up to $150 million of our common stock. This program does not have an expiration date; however, the Board of Directors will periodically review the authorization to assess its continued appropriateness in light of the company’s capital allocation priorities and market conditions. Repurchases may be made from time to time through a variety of methods, including through privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, such as pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or a combination of methods. Following the announcement of the Merger, we suspended our share repurchase activity in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement; however, we may resume share repurchases in the future in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The number of shares repurchased and the timing of repurchases depend on the level of our cash balances, general business and market conditions and other factors, including alternative investment opportunities.

During the three-month period ended June 27, 2026, repurchases under the previously authorized stock repurchase programs were as follows:

See “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 13. Stockholders’ Equity.”

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Results

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those set forth elsewhere in this report and under “Part I – Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

Introduction

In this section, we discuss the results of our operations and changes in financial condition for fiscal 2026 compared to fiscal 2025. Discussions of our fiscal 2024 items and year-to-year comparisons between our fiscal 2025 and 2024 that are not included in this Annual Report can be found in “Part II – Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” in our fiscal 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2025.

Overview

We design and deliver AI-native edge solutions that bring AI closer to end users and transform how we engage with intelligent, connected devices, whether at home, at work, or on the move. We are a strategic partner for many global OEMs, offering standard and custom silicon and software platforms for Edge AI, Physical AI, wireless connectivity and human interface technologies. Our Synaptics AstraTM family of processors and wireless solutions combine embedded compute, connectivity, and multimodal sensing to support intuitive, secure, and seamless experiences. Our touch, biometrics, AI-enabled wireless connectivity, video, vision, audio, and speech processing solutions support the next generation of intelligent devices that enhance how people live, work and interact with technology.

In fiscal 2026, we achieved revenue growth with net revenue increasing 11.4% to $1,197.2 million compared to $1,074.3 million in fiscal 2025. The growth was primarily driven by an increase in net revenue in our Core IoT product applications. Net revenue from Core IoT was $389.7 million, increasing 43.1% compared to $272.4 million a year ago, and included the contribution from our Broadcom transaction. This growth was fueled primarily by an increase in units sold coupled with an increase in average selling prices due to our product sales mix. Enterprise and Automotive net revenue was $641.1 million, increasing 5.1% compared to $610.1 million a year ago. The increase was primarily driven by higher unit sales, a better product mix, and increased license revenue from certain of our IP. Mobile net revenue was $166.4 million, decreasing 13.2% compared to $191.8 million a year ago, primarily due to lower average selling prices and a decrease in license revenue from certain of our IP.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of fiscal 2026 and 2025 totaled $442.5 million and $391.5 million, respectively. During fiscal 2026, we returned $92.7 million to shareholders through repurchase of approximately 1.3 million shares under the share repurchase program.

Pending Merger with ON Semiconductor Corporation

On June 25, 2026, we entered into the Merger Agreement, by and among Synaptics, onsemi and Merger Sub, pursuant to which the Merger will be effected, with Synaptics surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of onsemi. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger, each share of Synaptics common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to limited exceptions in the Merger Agreement, will be converted into the right to receive 1.350 validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of onsemi. No fractional shares of onsemi common stock will be issued in connection with the Merger. Instead, any Synaptics stockholder who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share of onsemi common stock will instead receive a cash payment (without interest) equal to such fraction multiplied by the “Average Parent Stock Price,” which is defined in the Merger Agreement as the average of the volume-weighted average trading prices per share of onsemi common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on each of the five consecutive trading days ending on (and including) the trading day that is three trading days prior to the closing date (as reported by Bloomberg L.P. or another authoritative source mutually selected by the parties). The transaction is expected to close in mid-2027, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by Synaptics stockholders and the receipt of required regulatory approvals.

Trends and Uncertainties

Current Economic Conditions

As a global company, we are exposed to and impacted by global macroeconomic factors and geopolitical conditions including military conflicts (such as the ongoing conflict involving the United States, Israel, Iran and other countries in the Middle East and beyond), U.S. and foreign government policies, inflation, tariffs, interest rates, foreign exchange fluctuations, potential economic slowdowns, and evolving trade regulations and sanctions. These factors may affect our operating environment, costs and financial results.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East has increased geopolitical tensions, including sanctions and restrictions affecting key transportation routes such as the Strait of Hormuz, contributing to volatility in global energy prices. As a result, we may experience disruptions to transportation routes and supply chains, including those involving third-party vendors, as well as higher transportation and logistics costs and broader inflationary pressures, which could adversely affect our revenue and gross margin. The extent and duration of these impacts remain uncertain, and further escalation and continued duration could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results.

Given that a significant portion of our sales and supply chain, including outsourced manufacturing, assembly and test operations, occurs outside of the United States, we are also exposed to, and impacted by, changes in international trade policies, particularly increased tariffs and other barriers or restrictions on trade between the United States and other countries, including China. Based on our current import and export practices, we believe our direct tariff exposure remains limited. However, some of our customers and suppliers may be affected depending on their own supply chain strategies and sourcing locations. We continue to monitor for any potential customer and supplier impacts, ranging from supply chain adjustments to changes in end demand. While the broader implications of these activities remain uncertain, based on our current lead times and order activity, we have not observed material changes in order patterns or timing due to tariffs, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, or related geopolitical developments that would be likely to impact our near-term financial performance. We will continue to assess the potential short- and long-term effects of these developments on our financial and operational performance.

Industry Conditions

The continuing constrained availability and elevated pricing of certain memory components across the broader electronics supply chain have, at times, influenced the timing of orders for certain products, particularly for smaller customers. These conditions did not have a material impact on our results of operations during fiscal 2026; however, limited visibility into future availability, timing, increased associated costs, and the potential for these conditions to persist, could affect customer development timelines, purchasing behavior, production schedules, booking patterns, and the timing or visibility of orders in future periods. We continue to monitor these conditions and their potential impact on customer demand and ordering behavior.

Results of Operations

The following sets forth certain of our consolidated statements of operations data for fiscal 2026 and 2025 along with comparative information regarding the absolute and percentage changes in these amounts (in millions, except percentages):

Enterprise and Automotive product applications $ 641.1 53.5 % $ 610.1 56.8 %

Operating expenses:

Acquired intangibles amortization 12.3 1.0 % 16.7 1.5 %

Intangible asset impairment charge 6.8 0.6 % 13.8 1.3 %

Interest and other income, net 11.1 0.9 % 26.9 2.5 %

Loss on early extinguishment of debt — — % (6.5) (0.6 %)

Loss before provision (benefit) for income taxes (79.4) (6.7 %) (113.5) (10.6 %)

Provision (benefit) for income taxes 411.4 34.3 % (65.7) (6.2 %)

Fiscal 2026 Compared with Fiscal 2025

Net Revenue.

Net revenue was $1,197.2 million for fiscal 2026 compared with $1,074.3 million for fiscal 2025, an increase of $122.9 million, or 11.4%. Of this net revenue, $641.1 million, or 53.5%, was from Enterprise and Automotive product applications, $389.7 million, or 32.6%, was from the Core IoT product applications market and $166.4 million, or 13.9%, was from the Mobile product applications market. Revenue increased in most of our product applications in fiscal 2026. Net revenue from Enterprise and Automotive product applications increased $31.0 million, primarily driven by higher unit sales (1.9%), a better product mix, and increased license revenue from certain of our IP. Net revenue from Core IoT product applications increased $117.3 million, driven by an increase in units sold (25.8%) and an increase in average selling prices (8.0%) due to our product sales mix compared to the same period a year ago, inclusive of the contribution from the Broadcom transaction. Net revenue from Mobile product applications decreased primarily due to a decrease in average selling prices (8.1%) and lower license revenue from certain of our IP.

Gross Margin.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue remained flat at 44.7% in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025. Because we sell our technology solutions in designs that are generally unique or specific to an OEM customer’s application, gross margin varies on a product-by-product basis, making our cumulative gross margin a blend of our product specific designs. As a fabless manufacturer, our gross margin percentage is generally not materially impacted by our shipment volume.

Operating Expenses.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased $35.0 million, to $381.8 million, for fiscal 2026 compared with $346.8 million in fiscal 2025. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected an $18 million increase in share-based compensation primarily driven by the charges related to the awards granted to the Broadcom employees onboarded during the third quarter of fiscal 2025, a $10.6 million increase in personnel-related costs, and a $3.9 million increase in project specific costs.

Table of Contents

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $18.0 million, to $198.3 million, for fiscal 2026 compared with $180.3 million in fiscal 2025. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses primarily reflected a $15.6 million increase in share-based compensation primarily attributable to forfeitures associated with the departures of certain executives in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, which did not recur in fiscal 2026, and $10.9 million in professional service fees primarily related to the pending merger with onsemi. Selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2025 included professional service fees of $3.3 million related to the Broadcom transaction we executed in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and a $4.5 million unfavorable impact from exchange rates on foreign currencies recorded in fiscal 2025, which did not recur in fiscal 2026.

Acquired Intangibles Amortization. Acquired intangibles amortization reflects the amortization of intangibles acquired through recent acquisitions. See “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 7. Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets.”

Intangible asset impairment charge. Intangible asset impairment reflects the impairment of certain indefinite-lived intangible assets. See “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 7. Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets.”

Restructuring Costs. Restructuring costs primarily reflect employee severance costs and facilities consolidation costs related to the restructuring action we executed in fiscal 2026 and 2025. These headcount-related costs included personnel in operations, research and development and selling, general and administrative functions. Restructuring costs incurred in fiscal 2026 and 2025 were $3.3 million and $16.9 million, respectively. See “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 19. Restructuring Activities.”
