Proposed Merger Proposed Merger
As announced on February 4, 2026, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Texas Instruments Incorporated (“Parent”) and Caldwell Merger Corp., a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Subsidiary”), pursuant to which Merger Subsidiary will merge with and into Silicon Laboratories Inc. (the “Merger”), and the Company will survive the Merger as a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Parent. At the effective time of the Merger, each share of the Company’s common stock outstanding as of immediately prior to the effective time (other than dissenting shares or any shares of common stock held by the Company as treasury stock or owned by Parent or any of the Company’s or Parent’s subsidiaries) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive $231.00 in cash, without interest. The transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were unanimously approved by the Company’s board of directors, and on April 30, 2026 the Company obtained the approval of its stockholders required to adopt the Merger Agreement. The Merger is expected to close in the first half of 2027, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals.
In connection with the proposed Merger, for the three months ended April 4, 2026 we have incurred $11.2 million of costs, and expect to continue to incur financial advisory, legal, accounting, and other professional fees prior to the completion of the Merger, which could be significant.
