Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws. These involve estimates, assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions, or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. We use words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” "possible," “predict,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “continue,” “ongoing,” “future,” “potential,” and similar words or phrases to identify forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about: our target or expected financial performance and our ability to achieve those results; current and future impacts of the macroeconomic climate, including ongoing global military conflicts and actions of governments, businesses, and individuals in response to these situations; the impact of any continuing trade or travel restrictions or increasing tariffs on the export and import of products between the U.S. and other countries, including China; the impact of any deterioration in relations between Taiwan and China, and other factors affecting military, political, or economic conditions in Taiwan or elsewhere in Asia; the impact of tariffs, trade sanctions, license requirements or similar actions on our suppliers and customers; the impact of inflationary pressures; our business strategy; our expectations and strategies regarding market trends and opportunities, including market drivers such as wireless and wireline communications infrastructure deployments, data center servers and networking equipment, client computing platforms, industrial Internet of Things, factory automation, robotics, automotive electronics, smart homes, prosumers, and other applications; our beliefs about who we may compete with and whether we are differentiated from those competitors, as well as their potential capabilities; our expectations regarding our customer base, including concentration in certain geographic regions and the impacts of our customers’ actions on our business; our expectations regarding distributor and customer purchasing patterns, inventory levels and growth, and order timing; our expectations regarding both new and existing product offerings; our gross margin growth and our strategies to achieve gross margin growth and other financial results; our future investments in research and development, and selling, general and administrative activities; our ability to attract and retain personnel and their importance to our performance; future financial results or accounting treatments, including non-GAAP financial measures; our judgments involved in accounting matters, including revenue recognition, inventories and cost of revenue, and income taxes; actions we may take regarding the design and continued effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting; our use of cash; our beliefs regarding the adequacy of our liquidity, capital resources and facilities; our expectations regarding borrowings under our 2026 Credit Agreement, including the delayed draw term loan facility incurred in connection with our acquisition of AMI, and our ability to comply with covenants in the 2026 Credit Agreement; our use of foreign currency forward contracts and other hedging instruments, and the effectiveness of such hedges in managing our foreign currency exposure; whether we will consider and act upon acquisition opportunities, and the timing, completion, or abandonment of such transactions and the impact of such opportunities on our business; expected timing and completion of our restructuring plans; whether we will pursue future stock repurchases and how any future repurchases will be funded; the future price volatility of our stock and the effects of that volatility; our ability or failure to prevent and respond to information technology system failures, security breaches and incidents, cyberattacks or fraud, and the occurrence and impact of such cybersecurity incidents; the costs of mitigating cybersecurity risks; the impact of artificial intelligence (“AI”), including our expectations regarding the growth of AI-related revenue; our ability to successfully pursue and execute acquisitions and inorganic growth, and to successfully integrate acquired businesses and achieve the anticipated benefits of acquisition transactions, including with respect to our acquisition of AMI completed in July 2026; the impact of laws and regulations addressing privacy, data protection, and cybersecurity and our ability to comply with the same; our ability to comply with other laws and regulations, the costs of such compliance, and costs incurred if we fail to comply with such laws and regulations; our beliefs regarding legal or administrative proceedings; and impacts of global pandemics, epidemics, and other public health matters and actions of governments, businesses, and individuals in response to these situations.
These forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those statements expressed in the forward-looking statements. The key factors, among others, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include global economic conditions and uncertainty, including as a result of trade-related restrictions or tariffs or uncertainty regarding trade restrictions and tariffs, inflationary pressures, or the effect of any downturn in the economy on capital markets and credit markets; the macroeconomic climate and effects of global military conflicts and actions of governments, businesses, and individuals in response to these situations, the effects of which may give rise to or amplify the risks associated with many of these factors listed here; our ability to attract and retain key personnel; our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses and achieve the anticipated benefits of acquisition transactions, including with respect to our acquisition of AMI completed in July 2026; and other factors more fully described herein and that are otherwise described from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including, but not limited to, the items discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2026 filed with the SEC on February 13, 2026 and any additional or updated risk factors discussed in any subsequent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed since that date.
You should not unduly rely on forward-looking statements because our actual results could differ materially from those expressed by us. In addition, any forward-looking statement applies only as of the date of this filing. We do not plan to, and undertake no obligation to, update any forward-looking statements to reflect new information or new events, circumstances or developments, or otherwise.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
Lattice Semiconductor Corporation and its subsidiaries (“Lattice,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) develop technologies that we monetize through differentiated programmable logic semiconductor products, silicon-enabling products, system solutions, design services, and technology licenses.
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). In our opinion, they include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC's rules and regulations for interim reporting. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2026 ("2025 10-K").
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our consolidated condensed financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and our beliefs of what could occur in the future considering available information. While we believe that our estimates, assumptions, and judgments are reasonable, they are based on information available when made, and because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, the actual results that we experience may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis.
We describe our accounting methods and practices in more detail in our 2025 10-K. Other than as described below, there have been no changes to the significant accounting policies, procedures, or general information described in our 2025 10-K that have had a material impact on our consolidated condensed financial statements and the accompanying notes. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
During 2026, we initiated foreign currency hedging activities and, as a result, include the below additional accounting policies related to fair value and financial instruments:
Fair Value Accounting Policy
We apply the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820), to our assets and liabilities that we are required to measure at fair value pursuant to other accounting standards, including our derivative financial instruments. When determining fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact, as well as assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. All our financial assets and liabilities are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis.
Financial Instrument Accounting Policy
In Fiscal 2026, we began to use derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk. We have entered into foreign currency forward contracts in relation to certain operating expense activities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar, and these contracts generally mature within 12 months. We account for these instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), which requires that every derivative instrument be recorded as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value as of each reporting date.
ASC 815 also requires that changes in the fair values of our derivatives be recognized in earnings, unless specific hedge accounting and documentation criteria are met. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Our foreign currency contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. As such, we record the change in fair value of a derivative in Other comprehensive income (loss), and the change is reclassified to earnings in the period that the hedged item affects earnings.
As of July 4, 2026, the notional value of our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges was $
Fiscal Reporting Periods
We report based on a 52 or 53-week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. Our fiscal 2026 will be a 52-week year and will end on January 2, 2027, and our fiscal 2025 was a 53-week year that ended January 3, 2026. Our second quarter of fiscal 2026 and second quarter of fiscal 2025 ended on July 4, 2026 and June 28, 2025, respectively. All references to quarterly financial results are references to the results for the relevant 13-week or 26-week fiscal period.
Concentrations of Risk
Potential exposure to concentrations of risk may impact revenue, trade accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, and supply of wafers for our new products. Sales to distributors have historically accounted for a significant portion of our total revenue. Revenue attributable to distributors as a percentage of total revenue was
Distributors also account for a substantial portion of our net accounts receivable. Our
We limit our risk exposure related to cash and cash equivalents by placing our cash with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, such deposits may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. We have not experienced any losses on our deposits of cash and cash equivalents.
We rely on a limited number of foundries for our wafer purchases and partners for our assembly and test operations. We seek to mitigate the concentration of supply risk by establishing, maintaining, and managing multiple foundry and partner relationships; however, certain of our products are sourced from a single supplier and changing from one supplier to another can have a significant cost, or create delays in production or shipments, among other factors.
New Accounting Pronouncements
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. This new guidance requires public entities to provide disaggregated disclosures, in the notes to the financial statements, of certain categories of expenses that are included in expense line items on the face of the income statement. The ASU may be applied prospectively or retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and 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. This ASU is intended to simplify the recognition and disclosure guidance related to capitalized internal-use software costs by removing all references to software development project stages and introducing a more judgment-based framework. ASU 2025-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. This standard may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or via a modified prospective transition method. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
We compute basic earnings per share based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. We compute diluted earnings per share based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus potentially dilutive shares of common stock outstanding during the period, if applicable. Potentially dilutive shares of common stock from employee equity incentive awards are determined by applying the treasury stock method to the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options, the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units ("RSUs") and restricted stock awards ("RSAs"), and the assumed issuance of common stock under the stock purchase plan.
Our calculation of potentially dilutive shares includes the number of shares from our equity awards with market conditions or performance conditions that would be issuable under the terms of such awards at the end of the reporting period. For equity awards with a market condition, the number of shares included in the diluted share count as of the end of each period presented is determined by measuring the achievement of the market condition as of the end of the respective reporting periods. For equity awards with a performance condition, the number of shares that qualified for vesting as of the end of each period presented are included in the diluted share count when the condition for their issuance was satisfied by the end of the respective reporting periods. See "Note 9 - Stock-Based Compensation" to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion of our equity awards with market conditions or performance conditions.
A summary of basic and diluted Net income per share is presented in the following table:

Note 3 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following tables provide information about revenue from contracts with customers disaggregated by channel and by geographical market. Revenue is attributed to geographic regions based on the ship-to location of the customer. The Greater China geography includes revenue associated with shipments to both Hong Kong and mainland China. Products shipped to Hong Kong may subsequently be transferred to mainland China or other destinations, and products shipped to mainland China may similarly move through intermediary locations.

On June 30, 2026, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2026 Credit Agreement"), which provides for a senior secured revolving loan facility ("revolving loans") in an aggregate principal amount of $
The term loans are payable in required quarterly installments beginning with the first full fiscal quarter after the term loans are borrowed, equal to
The proceeds of the revolving loans under the 2026 Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. Revolving loans may be repaid and reborrowed at our discretion, with any remaining outstanding principal amount due and payable on the maturity date of the revolving loans on June 30, 2031.
The 2026 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting the ability of the Company to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, undergo certain fundamental changes, make investments, make certain restricted payments, dispose of assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter into burdensome agreements, in each case, subject to limitations and exceptions set forth in the 2026 Credit Agreement. We are also required to maintain compliance with a consolidated total net leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio, in each case, determined in accordance with the terms of the 2026 Credit Agreement.
Loans under our 2026 Credit Agreement accrue interest at a per annum rate based on ranges determined by our consolidated total leverage ratio. At our option, interest accrues at either (a) the base rate (as defined in the 2026 Credit Agreement) plus a margin ranging from

Incentive Compensation Settled In Equity
Under our Corporate Incentive Plan, incentive payments may be made in cash or in shares of our Common Stock, or a combination of both, as determined at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. To the extent incentive payments are settled in equity under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, the number of shares of our Common Stock to be issued is determined by dividing the eligible employee’s incentive payment value by the 30-calendar day average closing price of our Common Stock during the period ending the day before the date of settlement. Under this methodology, the value of the shares of our Common Stock issued on the settlement date could differ from the incentive payment value accrued. Any shares of our Common Stock issued to settle incentive payments under this plan vest immediately upon issuance.
Our results for the first six months of fiscal 2026 include our settlement in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 of a portion of the incentive compensation accrued during fiscal 2025 by issuing shares of our Common Stock with a total value of $

Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are exposed to certain additional asserted and unasserted potential claims. We review the status of each significant matter and assess its potential financial exposure. If the potential loss from any claim or legal proceeding is considered probable and a range of possible losses can be estimated, we then accrue a liability for the estimated loss. Legal proceedings are subject to uncertainties, and the outcomes are difficult to predict. Because of such uncertainties, accruals are based only on the best information available at the time. As additional information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to pending claims and litigation and may revise estimates.
As of July 4, 2026, we have determined that the Company operates in a operating and reportable segment: the core Lattice business, which includes silicon-based and silicon-enabling products, evaluation boards, development hardware, and related intellectual property licensing, services, and sales.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read along with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2025 10-K.
Overview
Lattice develops technologies that we monetize through differentiated programmable logic semiconductor products, silicon-enabling products, system solutions, design services, and technology licenses. Lattice is the low power programmable leader. We solve customer problems across the network, from the Edge to the Cloud, in the Compute, Communications, Industrial, and Embedded markets. Our technology, long-standing relationships, and commitment to world-class support helps our customers quickly and easily unleash their innovation to create a smart, secure, and connected world.
Lattice has focused its strategy on delivering programmable logic products and related solutions based on low power, small size, and ease of use. We also serve our customers with intellectual property ("IP") licensing and various other services. Our product development activities include new proprietary products, advanced packaging, existing product enhancements, software development tools, soft IP, and system solutions for high-growth applications such as Edge Artificial Intelligence, wireless and wireline infrastructure, platform security, and factory automation.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Critical accounting policies are those that are both most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and results of operations, and that require management's most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our 2025 10-K.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our consolidated condensed financial statements and the accompanying notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions, and our beliefs of what could occur in the future considering available information. While we believe that our estimates, assumptions, and judgments are reasonable, they are based on information available when made, and because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis.

Revenue by End Market
During the first quarter of 2026, we aligned our end market structure to our larger strategic market focus areas. We sell our products globally to a broad base of customers in two primary end market groups: Compute and Communications, and Industrial and Embedded. Across our end markets, our products are increasingly used for AI-related applications, including device usage in AI-optimized servers in data centers, AI-enabled PCs, and AI-enabled robotics and ADAS systems, among others. We also provide IP licensing and services to these end markets.
Within these end markets, there are multiple drivers, including:
| • |
Compute and Communications: data center servers, storage, and networking equipment, client computing platforms, and wireless and wireline communications infrastructure deployments, |
| • | Industrial and Embedded: factory automation, robotics, automotive electronics, and industrial Internet of Things ("IoT"), smart home, prosumer, and other applications. |
The end market data we use is derived from data provided to us by our distributors and end customers. With a diverse base of customers who may manufacture end products spanning multiple end markets, the assignment of revenue to a specific end market requires the use of judgment. We also recognize certain revenue for which end customers and end markets are not yet known. We assign this revenue first to a specific end market using historical and anticipated usage of the specific products, if possible, and allocate the remainder to the end markets based on either historical usage for each product family or industry application data for certain product types.
The following are examples of end market applications for the periods presented:
| Compute and Communications |
Industrial and Embedded |
| Data Networking |
Security and Surveillance |
| Server Computing |
Machine Vision |
| Client Computing |
Industrial Automation |
| Data Storage |

Note: During the first quarter of 2026, we began disaggregating our revenue by Compute and Communications, and Industrial and Embedded. Prior periods have been reclassified to match current period presentation.
Revenue from the Compute and Communications end market increased by 83% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and increased by 84% for the first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2025 primarily due to stronger demand in data center applications, including general-purpose and AI-specific servers, as well as wireline networking components.
Revenue from the Industrial and Embedded end market increased by 36% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and increased by 18% for the first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2025 primarily due to recovering end market demand particularly from industrial and aerospace customers.
AI applications are pervasive across our end markets, so we do not consider AI applications as a distinct end market. We expect AI-related revenue to grow over the next few years based on the growing pipeline of AI-related design wins in a diverse set of applications across both of our end market groups.
Revenue by Geography
We have a diverse base of customers where distributors represent a significant portion of our total revenue. Our revenue by geographical market is based on the ship-to location of our customers, which can vary from time to time. For the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and for the first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2025, revenue from Asia increased by 92% and 82%, respectively, primarily due to hyperscaler demand, while revenue from the Americas decreased by 14% and 26%, respectively, primarily due to the non-recurrence of certain one-time sales in the prior year period, and revenue from Europe increased by 32% and 44%, respectively, primarily due to broad market recovery in this region.

Revenue from Customers
We sell our products to independent distributors and directly to customers. Distributors have historically accounted for a significant portion of our total revenue. Revenue attributable to distributors as a percentage of total revenue was 95% and 84% for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively, and 95% and 81% for the first six months of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively.

The increase in Research and development expense for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2025 was primarily due to higher stock-based and cash-based compensation expense, along with higher depreciation and amortization on semiconductor equipment and licensed software tools, and higher expenses for mask sets and prototypes. We believe that investing in research and development is important to delivering innovative products to our customers. We expect research and development expense to increase in the future, but to decline as a percentage of revenue.

Details of our restructuring plans and expenses accrued under them are discussed in "Note 6 – Restructuring" to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Restructuring and other costs decreased in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2025 as we completed the actions planned under the Q3 2024 Plan.

The lower income tax expense for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2025 was primarily due to the impact of stock-based compensation combined with federal tax credits, partially offset by increased worldwide income.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that we define as net income before net interest income (expense), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, and other items that are considered unusual or not representative of underlying trends of our business, including but not limited to: legal expenses outside the ordinary course of business, transformation charges incurred in connection with our multi‑year strategic initiative to realign our organizational structure and modernize our technology platforms, restructuring, and other charges, if applicable for the periods presented.
We believe that the exclusion of the items eliminated in calculating Adjusted EBITDA provides useful measures for period-to-period comparisons of our business. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management and our Board of Directors. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of Adjusted EBITDA as a tool for comparison.
There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net income, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations of Adjusted EBITDA include (i) Adjusted EBITDA does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future, and (ii) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the underlying assets may need to be replaced and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these potential capital expenditures. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these expenses or any unusual or non-recurring items, as in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Evaluation of our performance should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including our net income and other GAAP results.

Adjusted EBITDA increased for the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2025 primarily as a result of higher revenue, partially offset by higher headcount-related expenses and higher expenses for mask sets and prototypes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following sections discuss material changes in our financial condition from the end of fiscal 2025, including the effects of changes in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the effects of our credit arrangements and contractual obligations on our liquidity and capital resources. There continues to be uncertainty around the extent of market volatility, the impact of tariffs, inflationary pressures, interest rate changes, recessionary concerns, uncertainty in the financial and banking industry, and geopolitical tension, which may impact our liquidity and working capital needs in future periods.
We have historically financed our operating and capital resource requirements through cash flows from operations and from the issuance of long-term debt to fund acquisitions. Cash provided by or used in operating activities will fluctuate from period to period due to fluctuations in operating results, the timing and collection of accounts receivable, and required inventory levels, among other things.
We believe that our financial resources, including current cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operating activities, and our credit facilities, will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and working capital needs through at least the next 12 months. On June 30, 2026, we entered into our 2026 Credit Agreement, as described in "Note 5 – Long-Term Debt" under Part I, Item 1 of this report. As of July 4, 2026, we did not have significant long-term commitments for capital expenditures. For further information on our cash commitments for operating lease liabilities, see "Note 7 – Leases" under Part I, Item 1 of this report.
In the future, we may continue to consider acquisition opportunities to further extend our product or technology portfolios and further expand our product offerings. In connection with funding capital expenditures, acquisitions, securing additional wafer supply, increasing our working capital, or other purposes, we may seek to obtain equity or additional debt financing. We may also seek to obtain equity or additional debt financing if we experience downturns or cyclical fluctuations in our business that are more severe or longer than we anticipated when determining our current working capital needs.

As of July 4, 2026, we had Cash and cash equivalents of $173.3 million, of which $46.5 million was held by our foreign subsidiaries. We manage our global cash requirements considering, among other things, (i) available funds among our subsidiaries through which we conduct business, (ii) the geographic location of our liquidity needs, and (iii) the cost to access international cash balances. The repatriation of non-US earnings may require us to withhold and pay foreign income tax on dividends. This should not result in our recording significant additional tax expense as we have accrued expense based on current withholding rates. As of July 4, 2026, we could access all cash held by our foreign subsidiaries without incurring significant additional expense.
The net increase in Cash and cash equivalents of $39.4 million between January 3, 2026 and July 4, 2026 was primarily driven by cash flows from the following activities:
Operating activities — Cash provided by operating activities results from net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. Cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of fiscal 2026 was $138.6 million compared to $70.4
million for the first six months of fiscal 2025. This increase of $68.2 million was primarily driven by $67.6 million more cash provided by net income adjusted for non-cash items, coupled with $0.6 million of net changes in working capital.
Investing activities — Investing cash flows consist primarily of transactions related to capital expenditures, payments for software and intellectual property licenses, and purchases of other investments. Net cash used by investing activities in the first six months of fiscal 2026 was $42.7 million compared to $23.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025.
Financing activities — Financing cash flows consist primarily of repurchases of common stock, tax payments related to the net share settlement of restricted stock units, proceeds from the acquisition of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan, and activity related to our long-term debt. Net cash used by financing activities was $56.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026 compared to $76.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025. This decrease of $20.1 million was due to the following activities: (i) during the first six months of fiscal 2026, we repurchased 0.2 million shares of common stock for $15.0 million, a decrease of $55.9 million compared to the first six months of fiscal 2025, where we repurchased 1.3 million shares of common stock for $70.9 million, (ii) payments for tax withholdings on vesting of RSUs partially offset by purchases under the employee stock purchase plan used net cash flows of $29.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2026, an increase of $24.0 million from the net $5.7 million used in the first six months of fiscal 2025, and (iii) during the first six months of fiscal 2026, we paid $11.7 million in issuance costs related to new long-term debt under the bridge facility and the 2026 Credit Agreement.

The Days of inventory on hand ratio compares the inventory balance at the end of a quarter to the cost of revenue in that quarter. We calculate Days of inventory on hand on the basis of a 365-day year as Inventories at the end of the quarter divided by Cost of revenue during the quarter annualized and then multiplied by 365.
Credit Arrangements
As of July 4, 2026, we had no used or unused credit arrangements beyond the facilities described in the 2026 Credit Agreement. The details of this arrangement are described in "Note 5 – Long-Term Debt" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Share Repurchase Program
See Part II, Item 2, “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information about the share repurchase program.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is primarily a result of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We assess these risks on a regular basis and have established policies that are designed to protect against the adverse effects of these and other potential exposures. There have been no material changes to either the foreign currency exchange rate risk or interest rate risk previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," of our 2025 10-K.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
The information set forth above under "Note 12 – Contingencies – Legal Proceedings" contained in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements is incorporated herein by reference.
In addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors set forth below, together with the risk factors associated with our business previously described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our 2025 10-K. Other than as set forth below there have been no material changes in the risk factors included in our 2025 10-K, and this report should be read in conjunction with the risk factors set forth in our 2025 10-K. These risk factors are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we may currently deem to be immaterial could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or operating results, including those related to adverse macroeconomic conditions, such as tariffs and trade disruptions, rising inflation, and labor shortages, and supply constraints arising from increased demand for our products or for semiconductor manufacturing capacity across the industry, which may affect demand for our products or increase our product or labor costs, negatively impacting our revenues, gross margins, and overall financial results. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected, and the trading price of our common stock could decline. These factors, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, should be carefully considered before making an investment decision relating to our common stock.
Acquisitions, divestitures, strategic investments and strategic partnerships could disrupt our business and adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
We actively evaluate and may continue to pursue growth opportunities by acquiring complementary businesses, solutions or technologies through strategic transactions, investments or partnerships. For example, in July 2026, we completed the AMI Acquisition, and we are in the process of integrating AMI's business, operations, technology, and personnel with our own. The identification, evaluation, negotiation, and pursuit of such transactions, strategic investments or strategic partnership candidates requires significant management time and attention and involves substantial costs, including fees paid to financial advisors, consultants, legal counsel, and other third parties, regardless of whether any transaction is ultimately consummated. If such strategic transactions require us to seek additional debt or equity financing, we may not be able to obtain such financing on terms favorable to us or at all, and such transactions may adversely affect our liquidity, capital structure, and overall financial flexibility. We may also choose to divest certain non-core assets, which could lead to charges against earnings and may expose us to additional liabilities and risks. Any strategic transaction might not strengthen our competitive position, may increase some of our risks, and may be viewed negatively by our customers, partners or investors. Even if we successfully complete a strategic transaction, we may not be able to effectively integrate the acquired business, technology, systems, control environment, solutions, personnel or operations into our business or global tax structure. We may not realize the anticipated benefits, synergies, or cost savings of the AMI Acquisition or any other strategic transaction within the expected timeframe or at all, and our integration of AMI or other acquired businesses may be more difficult, costly, or time-consuming than we currently anticipate, including as a result of challenges in retaining key employees and customers, coordinating geographically dispersed organizations, and integrating disparate business systems, technologies, and controls. We may experience unexpected changes in how we are required to account for strategic transactions pursuant to U.S. GAAP and may not achieve the anticipated benefits of any strategic transaction. We may incur unexpected costs, obligations, claims or liabilities during the strategic transaction or that we assume from the acquired business, or we may discover adverse conditions post acquisition for which we have limited or no recourse, including but not limited to those related to intellectual property, litigation, regulatory compliance, taxes, indemnification obligations, or accounting treatment, each of which may require us to make significant judgments and estimates under U.S. GAAP that could affect our reported financial results. In addition, we may be required to incur restructuring charges, impairment charges, or other costs in connection with any transaction, including the AMI Acquisition. We may also be subject to increased scrutiny by regulators, customers, partners, and investors in connection with strategic transactions, and any perceived failure to execute effectively could adversely affect our reputation and market position. We may also be a target for unsolicited acquisition or business combination offers. Appropriately reviewing and responding to any such offer can be costly and complex, and diverts the efforts and attention of management.
We may incur indebtedness which could reduce our strategic flexibility and liquidity and may have other adverse effects on our results of operations.
Our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated June 30, 2026 (the “2026 Credit Agreement”) allows us to draw up to $200 million in revolving loans and up to $950.0 million of delayed draw term loans. The level of committed capacity available to us under the revolving credit facility may limit our financial flexibility, including our ability to respond to adverse economic conditions, fund working capital needs, pursue strategic initiatives or acquisitions, or address unforeseen operational or regulatory challenges. As of July 4, 2026, we had no borrowings outstanding under the 2026 Credit Agreement. We borrowed $925 million of delayed draw term loans on July 27, 2026 in connection with the completion of the AMI Acquisition. Following the borrowing of $925 million under the delayed draw term loan facility, the remaining $25 million of undrawn commitments under the delayed draw term loan facility expired on the closing date of the acquisition. Our obligations under the 2026 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our U.S. subsidiaries meeting materiality thresholds set forth in the 2026 Credit Agreement. The term loans amortize quarterly as set forth in the 2026 Credit Agreement and mature on June 30, 2031 and the revolving loans under the 2026 Credit Agreement may be reborrowed and repaid at our discretion, with any remaining outstanding principal amount due and payable on the maturity date of the revolving loan facility on June 30, 2031. Our ability to meet our debt service obligations depends upon our operating and financial performance, which is subject to general economic and competitive conditions and to financial, business and other factors affecting our operations, many of which are beyond our control. If we are unable to service our debt, we may need to sell material assets, restructure or refinance our debt, increase our borrowing capacity, or incur additional indebtedness, or seek additional equity capital. Prevailing economic conditions and global credit markets could adversely impact our ability to sell material assets, restructure or refinance our debt on terms acceptable to us, or at all, or we may not be able to restructure or refinance our debt without incurring significant additional fees and expenses.
The 2026 Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting the ability of the Company and our subsidiaries to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, undergo certain fundamental changes, make investments, make certain restricted payments, dispose of assets, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter into burdensome agreements, in each case, subject to limitations and exceptions set forth in the 2026 Credit Agreement. We are also required to maintain compliance with a total net leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio, in each case, determined in accordance with the terms of the 2026 Credit Agreement.
The amount and terms of our indebtedness, as well as our credit rating, could have important consequences, including the following:

we may be more vulnerable to economic downturns, less able to withstand competitive pressures, and less flexible in responding to changing business and economic conditions; |
| ● |
our cash flow from operations may be allocated to the payment of outstanding indebtedness, and not to research and development, operations or business growth; |
| ● |
we might not generate sufficient cash flow from operations or other sources to enable us to meet our payment obligations under the facility and to fund other liquidity needs; |
| ● |
our ability to make distributions to our stockholders in a sale or liquidation may be limited until any balance on the facility is repaid in full; and |
| ● |
our ability to incur additional debt, including for working capital, acquisitions, or other needs, is more limited. |
If we breach a loan covenant, the lenders could accelerate the repayment of the facility. We might not have sufficient assets to repay our indebtedness upon acceleration. If we are unable to repay or refinance the indebtedness upon acceleration or at maturity, the lenders could initiate a bankruptcy proceeding against us or collection proceedings with respect to our assets and subsidiaries securing the facility, which could materially decrease the value of our common stock.

On December 5, 2025, we announced that our Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase program pursuant to which up to $250 million of outstanding common stock could be repurchased from time to time (the "2026 Repurchase Program").

No shares were repurchased during the second quarter of fiscal 2026. As of July 4, 2026, the remaining portion of the amount authorized for the 2026 Repurchase Program is $235.0 million.
