NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Skyworks Solutions, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“Skyworks” or the “Company”), is a leading developer, manufacturer and provider of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products and solutions for numerous applications, including aerospace, automotive, broadband, cellular infrastructure, connected home, defense, entertainment and gaming, industrial, medical, smartphone, tablet, and wearables.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. However, in management’s opinion, the financial information reflects all adjustments, including those of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The results of operations, financial position, and cash flows for the Company during the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those expected for the full year. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 3, 2025, filed with the SEC on November 7, 2025, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to such Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on January 30, 2026 (“2025 10-K”).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, comprehensive income, and accumulated other comprehensive loss that are reported during the reporting period. The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Judgment is required in determining the reserves for, and fair value of, items such as overall fair value assessments of assets, liabilities, and expenses, particularly those classified as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, including: marketable securities, inventory, intangible assets associated with business combinations, share-based compensation, revenue reserves, loss contingencies, and income taxes. In addition, judgment is required in determining whether a potential indicator of impairment of long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets, and goodwill exists and in estimating future cash flows for any necessary impairment testing. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Friday closest to September 30. The fiscal year ending on October 2, 2026 consists of 52 weeks (“fiscal 2026”). The fiscal year ended on October 3, 2025 consisted of 53 weeks (“fiscal 2025”). The three months ended January 2, 2026, and December 27, 2024, each consisted of 13 weeks.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 includes amendments that further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, on either a prospective or retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company will provide the required disclosures of ASU 2023-09 in its fiscal 2026 annual report.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of certain expense captions into specified categories in the notes to financial statements on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on either a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software” (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 makes targeted improvements that clarify and modernize the accounting for costs related to internal-use software. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods, on either a prospective, retrospective, or modified basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025-06 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
2. REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company presents net revenue by geographic area, based upon the location of the original equipment manufacturers’ (“OEMs”) headquarters, and by sales channel, as it believes that doing so best depicts how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Individually insignificant OEMs are presented based upon the location of the Company’s direct customer, which is typically a distributor.
Net revenue by geographic area is as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | |
| January 2, 2026 | | December 27, 2024 | | | | |

| Direct customers | 119.8 | | | 117.7 | | | | | |
| Total net revenue | $ | 1,035.4 | | | $ | 1,068.5 | | | | | |
The Company’s revenue from external customers is generated principally from the sale of semiconductor products. Accordingly, the Company considers its product offerings to be similar in nature and therefore not segregated for reporting purposes.
3. MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Company’s portfolio of available-for-sale marketable securities consists of the following (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Current | | Noncurrent |
| January 2, 2026 | | October 3, 2025 | | January 2, 2026 | | October 3, 2025 |
| U.S. Treasury and government securities | $ | 6.6 | | | $ | 112.4 | | | $ | 9.9 | | | $ | 14.2 | |

| | | | | | | |
| Total marketable securities | $ | 8.3 | | | $ | 212.9 | | | $ | 9.9 | | | $ | 14.2 | |
The contractual maturities of noncurrent available-for-sale marketable securities were within two years or less of issuance of the applicable securities. Neither gross unrealized gains and losses nor realized gains and losses were material as of January 2, 2026, or October 3, 2025.
4. FAIR VALUE
Assets and Liabilities Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The Company groups its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:
•Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less-active markets), or model-driven valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated with, observable market data.
•Level 3 - Fair value is derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable, including assumptions and judgments made by the Company.
Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| As of |
| January 2, 2026 | | October 3, 2025 |

(1) Cash equivalents included in Levels 1 and 2 consist of money market funds, corporate bonds and notes, and U.S. Treasury and government securities purchased with ninety days or less until maturity.
Assets Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The Company’s non-financial assets and liabilities, such as goodwill, intangible assets, and other long-lived assets resulting from business combinations, are measured at fair value using income approach valuation methodologies at the date of acquisition and are subsequently re-measured if there are indicators of impairment. There were no indicators of impairment identified during the three months ended January 2, 2026 and December 27, 2024, respectively.
Fair Value of Debt
The Company’s debt is carried at amortized cost and is measured at fair value quarterly for disclosure purposes. The estimated fair values are based on Level 2 inputs as the fair value is based on quoted prices for the Company’s debt and comparable instruments in inactive markets.
The carrying amount and estimated fair value of debt consists of the following (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| As of |
| January 2, 2026 | | October 3, 2025 |
| Carrying Amount | | Estimated Fair Value | | Carrying Amount | | Estimated Fair Value |

7. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
There were no changes to the carrying amount of goodwill during the three months ended January 2, 2026.
The Company tests its goodwill and its indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually as of the first day of its fourth fiscal quarter and in interim periods if certain events occur indicating the carrying value may be impaired. There were no indicators of goodwill and in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) impairment noted during the three months ended January 2, 2026 and December 27, 2024, respectively.
Intangible assets consist of the following (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | As of |
| Weighted Average Amortization Period (Years) | January 2, 2026 | | October 3, 2025 |
| Gross Carrying Amount | | Accumulated Amortization | | Net Carrying Amount | | Gross Carrying Amount | | Accumulated Amortization | | Net Carrying Amount |
| Developed technology and other | 6.4 | $ | 1,396.5 | | | $ | (716.4) | | | $ | 680.1 | | | $ | 1,396.5 | | | $ | (678.5) | | | $ | 718.0 | |
| Technology licenses | 3.2 | 106.6 | | | (25.0) | | | 81.6 | | | 167.0 | | | (78.8) | | | 88.2 | |
| In-process research and development | | 2.8 | | | — | | | 2.8 | | | 2.8 | | | — | | | 2.8 | |
| Total intangible assets | | $ | 1,505.9 | | | $ | (741.4) | | | $ | 764.5 | | | $ | 1,566.3 | | | $ | (757.3) | | | $ | 809.0 | |
Fully amortized intangible assets are eliminated from both the gross and accumulated amortization amounts in the first quarter of each fiscal year. Amortization expense related to definite-lived intangible assets was $44.5 million and $48.4 million for the three months ended January 2, 2026 and December 27, 2024, respectively, primarily recorded within cost of goods sold.
Annual amortization expense for the next five fiscal years related to definite-lived intangible assets, excluding IPR&D, is expected to be as follows (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Remaining 2026 | | 2027 | | 2028 | | 2029 | | 2030 | | Thereafter |
| Amortization expense | $ | 128.7 | | | $ | 159.2 | | | $ | 124.6 | | | $ | 91.0 | | | $ | 83.2 | | | $ | 175.0 | |
8. INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes consists of the following components (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | |
| January 2, 2026 | | December 27, 2024 | | | | |
| Provision for income taxes | $ | 30.5 | | | $ | 28.4 | | | | | |
| Effective tax rate | 27.8 | % | | 14.9 | % | | | | |
The difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the 21.0% United States federal statutory rate for the three months ended January 2, 2026 resulted primarily from tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), net of foreign tax credits, tax expense related to share-based compensation shortfalls and uncertain tax positions, and transaction costs related to the pending transaction with Qorvo (see Note 13), partially offset by foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the federal statutory rate, a benefit from foreign-derived intangible income deduction (“FDII”), and research and experimentation tax credits.
The difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the 21.0% United States federal statutory rate for the three months ended December 27, 2024 resulted primarily from foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the federal statutory rate, a benefit from FDII, and research and experimentation and foreign tax credits earned, partially offset by a tax on GILTI, and tax expense related to share-based compensation shortfalls.
In August 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act, which imposes a corporate alternative minimum tax (“CAMT”) of 15% on corporations with three-year average annual adjusted financial statement income exceeding $1.0 billion. The Company was subject to the provisions of CAMT beginning in fiscal 2024. CAMT did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the three months ended January 2, 2026 and had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the three months ended December 27, 2024.
In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (“OECD”) Inclusive Framework on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (“BEPS”) released Global Anti-Base Erosion (“GloBE”) rules under Pillar Two. Many countries have implemented laws based on Pillar Two, which was effective for the Company beginning in fiscal 2025. Pillar Two did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements during the three months ended January 2, 2026 and December 27, 2024.
In July 2025, the U.S. government enacted the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”). The OBBBA contains numerous provisions, including the permanent extension or restoration of certain expiring corporate income tax provisions, originally introduced by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, and incremental modifications to the international tax framework. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated estimated annualized effective tax rate during the three months ended January 2, 2026. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the OBBBA on its business for future periods.
9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
From time to time, various lawsuits, claims, and proceedings have been, and may in the future be, instituted or asserted against the Company, including those pertaining to patent infringement, intellectual property, securities litigation, environmental hazards, product liability and warranty, safety and health, employment, and contractual matters.
The semiconductor industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights. From time to time, third parties have asserted and may in the future assert patent, copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property rights to technologies that are important to the Company’s business and have demanded and may in the future demand that the Company license their technology. The outcome of any such litigation cannot be predicted with certainty and some such lawsuits, claims, or proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the Company. Generally speaking, intellectual property disputes often have a risk of injunctive relief, which, if imposed against the Company, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. From time to time the Company may also be involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business.
The Company monitors the status of legal proceedings and other contingencies on an ongoing basis to assess whether loss contingencies should be recognized and disclosed in its financial statements and footnotes. Other than as described below, the Company does not believe there are any pending legal proceedings that are at least reasonably possible to result in a material loss.
On June 20, 2025, Denso Corporation filed patent infringement litigation against the Company in the U.S. (United States District Court for the Central District of California) and on June 20, 2025 and October 31, 2025, Denso Corporation filed patent infringement litigation against the Company in Japan (Civil Division of the Osaka District Court). Denso alleges that the Company has and is willfully infringing Denso’s U.S. patent (7,758,979) and Japanese patents (JP5190841 and JP5966199), each relating to piezoelectric thin film. Denso is seeking monetary damages, including enhanced damages, interest, fees and costs, and injunctive relief. While the Company is unable to determine the ultimate outcome of these suits, the Company believes it has substantial defenses and intends to vigorously oppose the suits.
In addition to the above matter, the Company is engaged in various legal actions in the normal course of business and, while there can be no assurances, the Company believes the outcome of such pending legal actions will not have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business or financial statements. The Company’s aggregate accrual for legal contingencies was not material as of January 2, 2026 and October 3, 2025.
Guarantees and Indemnities
The Company has made no significant contractual guarantees for the benefit of third parties. However, the Company generally indemnifies its customers from third-party intellectual property infringement litigation claims related to its products and, on occasion, also provides other indemnities related to product sales. In connection with certain facility leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the facility or the lease.
The Company indemnifies its directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the state of Delaware. The duration of the indemnities varies and in many cases is indefinite. The indemnities to customers in connection with product sales generally are subject to limits based upon the amount of the related product sales and in many cases are subject to geographic and other restrictions. In certain instances, the Company’s indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and does not expect that such obligations will have a material adverse impact on its financial statements.
Purchase Commitments
The Company purchases materials primarily pursuant to individual purchase orders, some of which have underlying master purchase agreements. Some of these purchase commitments are cancelable, and some are non-cancelable, depending on the terms with each individual supplier. In the event of cancellation, the Company may be required to pay costs incurred through the date of cancellation or other fees. When cancellation would result in incurring costs or other fees, the Company has historically sought to negotiate amended terms to the original agreements and orders to limit such exposure. As such, the Company believes that purchase commitments as of any particular date may not be a reliable indicator of future liabilities.
The Company maintains certain minimum purchase commitments under long-term capacity reservation agreements primarily with foundries for the purchase of wafers. Under these agreements, the Company has agreed to pay a combination of refundable deposits and prepayments to the suppliers in exchange for reserved manufacturing production capacity over the term of the agreements. As of January 2, 2026, deposits and prepayments under the long-term capacity reservation agreements were $22.6 million, with $5.4 million recorded within other current assets and $17.2 million recorded within other long-term assets. As of October 3, 2025, deposits and prepayments under the long-term capacity reservation agreements were $26.4 million, with $7.7 million recorded within other current assets and $18.7 million recorded within other long-term assets.
10. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock Repurchase and Retirement
On February 4, 2025, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $2.0 billion of its common stock from time to time through February 3, 2027, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing and amount of any shares of the Company’s common stock that are repurchased under the stock repurchase program will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Company currently expects to fund the stock repurchase program using the Company’s working capital.
During each of the three months ended January 2, 2026 and December 27, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock. As of January 2, 2026, approximately $1.2 billion remained available under the stock repurchase program.
Dividends
On February 3, 2026, the Company announced that the Board of Directors had declared a cash dividend on the Company’s common stock of $0.71 per share. This dividend is payable on March 17, 2026, to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 24, 2026. Future dividends are subject to declaration by the Board of Directors.
Dividends charged to retained earnings were as follows (in millions, except per share data):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Fiscal Years Ended |
| October 2, 2026 | | October 3, 2025 |
| Per Share | | Total Amount | | Per Share | | Total Amount |
| First quarter | $ | 0.71 | | | $ | 106.4 | | | $ | 0.70 | | | $ | 112.5 | |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
Share-based Compensation
The following table summarizes the share-based compensation expense by line item in the Consolidated Statements of Operations (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | |
| January 2, 2026 | | December 27, 2024 | | | | |
| Cost of goods sold | $ | 17.4 | | | $ | 7.3 | | | | | |
| Research and development | 29.9 | | | 25.6 | | | | | |
| Selling, general, and administrative | 10.4 | | | 18.2 | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| Total share-based compensation | $ | 57.7 | | | $ | 51.1 | | | | | |
11. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in millions, except per share amounts):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | |
| January 2, 2026 | | December 27, 2024 | | | | |
| Net income | $ | 79.2 | | | $ | 162.0 | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| Weighted average shares outstanding – basic | 149.5 | | | 160.4 | | | | | |
| Dilutive effect of equity-based awards | 1.0 | | | 1.0 | | | | | |
| Weighted average shares outstanding – diluted | 150.5 | | | 161.4 | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| Net income per share – basic | $ | 0.53 | | | $ | 1.01 | | | | | |
| Net income per share – diluted | $ | 0.53 | | | $ | 1.00 | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents | 0.1 | | | 0.1 | | | | | |
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of equity-based awards that were outstanding during the three months ended January 2, 2026, and December 27, 2024, using the treasury stock method. Shares issuable upon the vesting of performance stock awards are likewise included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as of the date the condition(s) have been satisfied, assuming the end of the reporting period was the end of the contingency period. Certain of the Company’s outstanding share-based awards, noted in the table above, were excluded because they were anti-dilutive, but they could become dilutive in the future.

13. PENDING TRANSACTION WITH QORVO
On October 27, 2025, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) with Qorvo, Inc. (“Qorvo”), Comet Acquisition Corp. (“Merger Sub I”), and Comet Acquisition II, LLC (“Merger Sub II”) in a cash-and-stock transaction, pursuant to which Merger Sub I will be merged with and into Qorvo (the “First Merger”), with Qorvo as the surviving entity in the First Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”) and the Surviving Corporation continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and immediately following the First Merger, and as the second step in a single integrated transaction with the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation will be merged with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger,” and together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II as the surviving entity in the Second Merger and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Qorvo shareholders will receive 0.960 of a share of Skyworks common stock and $32.50 per share in cash upon the completion of the transaction, representing a combined company enterprise value of approximately $22.0 billion based on market close on October 27, 2025. The transaction will close after receipt of regulatory approvals, certain approvals of Qorvo and Skyworks shareholders, and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. The transaction is currently expected to close early in calendar year 2027.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for each of Skyworks and Qorvo. Under specified circumstances, including termination by a party to accept a superior proposal or termination by the other party upon a change in such party’s board of directors’ recommendation to its stockholders, each of Qorvo and Skyworks will be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $298.7 million, as more fully described in the Merger Agreement. Alternatively, under certain 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, Skyworks will be required to pay Qorvo a termination fee of $100.0 million, as more fully described in the Merger Agreement.
Each of Skyworks’ special meeting of stockholders and Qorvo’s special meeting of stockholders will be held virtually on February 11, 2026 at 11:30 AM, Pacific Time (unless adjourned or postponed to a later date).
On February 5, 2026, Skyworks and Qorvo each received a Request for Additional Information and Documentary Material (the “Second Request”) from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) in connection with the transaction. The Second Request was issued under notification requirements of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976, as amended (“HSR Act”). The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the HSR Act until 30 days after Skyworks and Qorvo have substantially complied with the Second Request, unless that period is voluntarily extended by the parties or terminated sooner by the FTC.
In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into a commitment letter (“Bridge Commitment Letter”) on October 27, 2025, with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, which committed to provide, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, up to $3,050.0 million of senior unsecured bridge term loans for the purpose of financing a portion
of the cash portion of the consideration to be paid to Qorvo stockholders, paying related fees and expenses in connection with the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and, in certain circumstances, to refinance certain of Qorvo’s senior notes. The receipt of financing by the Company is not a condition to our obligation to consummate the Mergers.
Pursuant to the terms of the Bridge Commitment Letter, $1,550.0 million of the senior unsecured bridge term loans had been specifically designated to represent the principal amount of Qorvo’s outstanding senior notes (the “Qorvo Notes Tranche”), and if a ratings decline (as defined in the applicable Qorvo indenture as in effect on the date of the commitment letter) did not occur on or prior to December 27, 2025 (which date would be extended so long as the rating of any series of Qorvo’s outstanding senior notes was under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade), then the aggregate commitments in respect of the Qorvo Notes Tranche under the Bridge Commitment Letter would be automatically permanently reduced dollar-for-dollar by the aggregate principal amount of Qorvo’s senior notes. On December 28, 2025, Goldman Sachs Bank USA notified the Company that there was no such ratings decline, no rating as to any series of Qorvo’s outstanding senior notes was under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade, and therefore the Qorvo Notes Tranche had been permanently reduced to $0.00. As a result, as of January 2, 2026, Goldman Sachs Bank USA has committed to provide up to $1,500.0 million of senior unsecured bridge term loans.
Transaction costs were $37.1 million recorded within selling, general, and administrative expense during the three months ended January 2, 2026. These costs mainly consisted of professional fees and administrative costs for the pending transaction and were expensed as incurred in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
14. DEBT
Revolving Credit Agreement
On May 21, 2021, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement (as amended, the “Revolving Credit Agreement”) providing for a $750.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”). The proceeds of the Revolver are available to be used for general corporate purposes and working capital needs of the Company and its subsidiaries.
The Revolver provides for revolving credit borrowings and letters of credit, with sublimits for letters of credit. The Revolver may be increased in specified circumstances by up to $250.0 million at the discretion of the lenders.
On March 6, 2023, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement to replace the LIBOR-based interest rate and related LIBOR-based mechanics applicable to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement with a SOFR-based interest rate and related SOFR-based mechanics. On November 18, 2025, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Second Revolver Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Second Revolver Amendment, the parties thereto agreed to extend the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Agreement to November 18, 2030.
The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and covenants, including restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness by non-guarantor subsidiaries and the creation of liens, and a financial covenant consisting of a limitation on leverage, defined as consolidated total indebtedness divided by consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization for the period of four consecutive quarters not to exceed a ratio of 3.0 to 1.0. As of January 2, 2026 and October 3, 2025, there were no borrowings outstanding and the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants under the Revolver.
