Assets Held for Sale
On January 14, 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement for the sale of our Processor IP Solutions (Processor IP) business to GlobalFoundries Inc. as part of our reallocation of resources to the highest growth opportunities in our Design IP segment.
The Processor IP business is part of the Design IP segment and we have determined that we met the criteria to classify the assets and liabilities of this business as held for sale. The divestiture does not represent a strategic shift in operations that would have a major effect on our business and is also not material to our business and therefore does not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations.
The sale is expected to be completed in June 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals.
The following table presents the major classes of assets and liabilities classified as held for sale as of April 30, 2026:
