The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain items in the fiscal ~~2020~~2021 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the fiscal ~~2021~~2022 presentation.

2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

~~The Company assesses recently issued accounting standards by~~In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") to determine the expected impacts on the Company's financial statements. The summary below describes impacts from newly issued standards as well as material updates to our previous assessments, if any, from Qorvo’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020.

~~In June 2016, the FASB~~ issued Accounting Standards Update ~~("ASU") 2016-13,~~2019-12, "~~Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments~~Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes," which ~~requires a~~eliminates certain exceptions within Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, "Income Taxes" and clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the current lifetime expected credit loss methodology to be used to measure impairments of accounts receivable and other financial assets.

The Company adopted ~~the~~this standard ~~which applies to its accounts receivables,~~ in the first quarter of fiscal ~~2021.~~

~~Under this new standard, trade receivables are now evaluated on~~2022, and it did not have a ~~collective (pool) basis and aggregated~~material impact on the basis of similar risk characteristics. These aggregated risk pools will be reassessed at each measurement date. A combination of factors is considered in determining the appropriate estimate of expected credit losses which include broad-based economic indicators as well as customers'Company's consolidated financial ~~strength, credit standing, payment history and any historical defaults.~~statements.

4(1)~~. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS~~

During the three months ended October 3, 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of 7Hugs Labs S.A.S. ("7Hugs"). During fiscal 2020, the Company completed the acquisitions of Decawave Limited ("Decawave"), Custom MMIC Design Services, Inc. ("Custom MMIC"), Cavendish Kinetics Limited ("Cavendish") and Active-Semi International, Inc. ("Active-Semi"). The operating results of these companies have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition dates.

~~7Hugs Labs S.A.S.~~

On October 1, 2020, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of 7Hugs, a private developer of ultra-wide band ("UWB") software and solutions, for a total purchase price of $48.7 million, including Includes cash acquired of ~~$1.0~~$5.8 million. ~~The acquisition expands the Company's product offerings and is expected to support the ongoing development and adoption of UWB products and solutions.~~

The ~~purchase price was allocated to 7Hugs' net tangible liabilities (approximately $5.4~~more significant intangible assets acquired included developed technology of $73.0 million ~~which includes debt assumed), deferred tax liability (approximately $1.7 million)~~ and ~~an intangible asset (approximately $37.3 million, entirely related to developed technology) based on their estimated fair values as~~customer relationships of ~~October 1, 2020.~~ $7.5 million.

The fair value of the developed technology acquired was determined based on an income approach using the ~~"relief from royalty method,"~~"excess earnings method" which estimated the value of the intangible asset by discounting the ~~royalties avoided by acquiring~~future projected earnings of the ~~technology~~asset to present value as of the valuation date. The acquired developed technology asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis over ~~the~~its estimated useful life of 10seven years.

The ~~excess~~fair value of the ~~purchase price over~~customer relationships acquired was determined based on an income approach using the "with and without method" in which the value of the ~~net tangible liabilities, deferred tax liability and~~ intangible asset ~~resulted~~is determined by the difference in ~~goodwill~~discounted cash flows of ~~approximately $18.5 million.~~ the profitability of the Company "with" the asset and the profitability of the Company "without" the asset. These customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life of one year.

The Company will continue to evaluate certain assets, liabilities and tax estimates over the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The goodwill resulting from the acquisition of NextInput is attributed to synergies and other benefits that are expected to be generated from this transaction and is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The operating results of NextInput were not material and have been included in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as of the acquisition date. During the three and six months ~~ended~~ended October ~~3, 2020,~~2, 2021, the Company recorded acquisition and integration related costs associated with the acquisition of ~~7Hugs of $1.4~~NextInput totaling $0.5 million and $1.7 million in "Other operating expense" in the Condensed Consolidated ~~Statement~~Statements of Income.

~~Decawave Limited~~7Hugs Labs S.A.S.

On ~~February 21,~~October 1, 2020, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of ~~Decawave,~~7Hugs Labs S.A.S. ("7Hugs"), a ~~pioneer in UWB technology~~private developer of Ultra Wideband ("UWB") software and ~~provider of UWB~~ solutions, ~~for mobile, automotive and Internet of Things ("IoT") applications,~~ for a total cash purchase price of ~~$372.7~~$48.7 million. The acquisition ~~expands~~supports the ongoing development and adoption of the Company's ~~product~~UWB products and ~~technology offerings that enables real-time, highly accurate and reliable local area precision-location services.~~solutions.

During the six months ended October ~~3, 2020,~~2, 2021, the Company recognized a decrease to goodwill of approximately ~~$2.6~~$0.1 million as a result of purchase price allocation adjustments. The Company will continue to evaluate certain assets, liabilities, and tax estimates over the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date).

~~Custom MMIC Design Services, Inc.~~

On February 6, 2020, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Custom MMIC, a supplier of high-performance gallium arsenide ("GaAs") and gallium nitride ("GaN") monolithic microwave integrated circuits ("MMICs") for defense and commercial applications, for a total purchase price of $91.7 million. The acquisition expands the Company's

millimeter wave ("mmWave") capabilities for product offerings in defense and commercial markets. On the acquisition date, the purchase price was comprised of cash consideration of $86.0 million and contingent consideration of $5.7 million (based on estimated fair value) which is payable to the sellers in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 if certain revenue targets are achieved over a one-year period from the acquisition date. The contingent consideration liability is remeasured to fair value each period with changes recognized in "Other operating expense." The fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of October 3, 2020 was equal to the maximum amount payable of $10.0 million, which is included in "Accrued liabilities." See Note 6 ~~for further information related to the fair value measurement.~~

During the six months ended October 3, 2020, the Company recognized a decrease to goodwill of approximately $0.6 million as a result of purchase price allocation adjustments. The Company will continue to evaluate certain assets, liabilities, and tax estimates over the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date).

~~Cavendish Kinetics Limited~~

As of September 28, 2019, the Company had an investment in preferred shares in Cavendish, a private supplier of high-performance radio frequency ("RF") microelectromechanical system ("MEMS") technology for antenna tuning applications, with a carrying value of $59.4 million. The Company accounted for this investment as an equity investment without a readily determinable fair value using the measurement alternative in accordance with ASC 321, ~~"Investments-Equity Securities."~~

On October 4, 2019, the Company acquired the remaining issued and outstanding capital of Cavendish for cash consideration of $198.4 million. The acquisition advances RF MEMS technology for applications across the Company's products and the technology will be transitioned into high-volume manufacturing for mobile devices and other markets.

The purchase of the remaining equity interest in Cavendish was considered to be an acquisition achieved in stages, whereby the previously held equity interest was remeasured at its acquisition-date fair value. The Company determined that the fair value of its previously held equity investment was $102.4 million based on the purchase consideration exchanged to acquire the remaining issued and outstanding capital of Cavendish, which resulted in recognition of a gain of $43.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

During the six months ended October 3, 2020, the Company recognized an increase to goodwill of approximately $1.6 million and a decrease to intangibles of approximately $2.0 million as a result of purchase price allocation adjustments. The measurement period ended one year from the acquisition date of October 4, 2019.

~~Active-Semi International, Inc.~~

On May 6, 2019, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Active-Semi, a private fabless supplier of programmable analog power management solutions, for a total purchase price of $307.9 million. The acquisition expanded the Company's product offerings in power management markets.

~~During the six months ended October 3, 2020, the Company recognized an increase to goodwill of approximately $0.1 million~~ in connection with finalizing the purchase price allocation. The measurement period ended one year from the acquisition date.

In an effort to support growth amidst ongoing industry-wide supply constraints, the Company entered into a long-term capacity reservation agreement with a foundry supplier during the second quarter ended October 2, 2021.

The Company currently estimates that it is obligated to purchase a total of approximately $1.8 billion of wafers (included in the total purchase obligations above) under the capacity reservation agreement.

Legal Matters

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business that have not been fully adjudicated. The Company accrues a liability for legal contingencies when it believes that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and ~~that it can reasonably estimate~~ the amount of the ~~loss.~~loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company ~~reviews these accruals~~regularly evaluates developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of the previously accrued liability and ~~adjusts them~~records adjustments as appropriate. Although it is not possible to ~~reflect ongoing negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice~~predict with certainty the outcome of the unresolved legal ~~counsel and other relevant information. To the extent new information~~matters, it is obtained and the Company's views on the probable outcomes of claims, suits, assessments, investigations or legal proceedings change, changes in the Company's accrued liabilities would be recorded in the period in which such determination is made.

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of its business that have not been fully adjudicated. These actions, when finally concluded and determined, will not, in the opinion of management that these matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect ~~upon~~on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued liabilities, if any, associated with these unresolved legal matters is not material.

13~~. INCOME TAXES~~

The Company’s ~~provision for~~ income ~~taxes~~tax expense was $32.6 million and $45.6 million for the three and six months ended October ~~3, 2020~~2, 2021, respectively, and September 28, 2019 was calculated by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate for the full fiscal year to “ordinary” income or loss (pre-tax income or loss excluding unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items) for those respective periods.

~~The Company’s income tax expense was~~ $63.2 million for the three and six months ended October 3, ~~2020,~~2020. The Company’s effective tax rate was 9.3% and ~~the Company’s income tax expense was $19.0 million and $24.7 million, respectively,~~7.0% for the three and six months ended ~~September 28, 2019. The Company’s effective tax rate was~~October 2, 2021, respectively, and 31.6% and 21.3% for the three and six months ended October 3, 2020, ~~respectively, and 18.6% and 16.8% for the three and six months ended September 28, 2019,~~ respectively.

The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended October ~~3, 2020~~2, 2021, differed from the statutory rate primarily due to tax rate differences in foreign jurisdictions, global intangible low tax income (“GILTI”), domestic tax credits generated and discrete tax items recorded during the period. A discrete benefit of $10.3 million and $30.5 million was recorded during the three and six months ended October 2, 2021, respectively. The discrete tax benefits for the three and six months ended October 2, 2021 primarily related to stock-based compensation deductions and net tax benefits associated with other non-recurring restructuring activities, including a discrete charge associated with the intercompany restructuring of the NextInput intellectual property. The discrete tax benefit for the six months ended October 2, 2021 was also due in part to the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.

The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six months ended October 3, 2020, differed from the statutory rate primarily due to tax rate differences in foreign jurisdictions, GILTI, domestic tax credits generated and discrete tax items recorded during the period. A discrete charge of $45.2 million and $35.2 million was recorded during the three and six months ended October 3, 2020, respectively. The discrete charge primarily relates to the intercompany restructuring of the Cavendish intellectual property, partially offset by discrete tax benefits recognized for stock-based compensation deductions and a retroactive incentive allowing previously non-deductible payments to be amortized. The Company's effective tax ratecharges for the three and six months ended ~~September 28, 2019 differed from~~October 3, 2020 primarily related to the ~~statutory rate primarily~~

due to tax rate differences in foreign jurisdictions, GILTI, domestic tax credits generated, foreign permanent differences, the discrete treatment of post-combination compensation related expenses due to the Active-Semi acquisition, and a discrete expense related to the Company’s change in its permanent reinvestment assertion for certain unrepatriated foreign earnings previously subject to U.S. federal taxation.

intercompany restructuring of the intellectual property from the acquisition of Cavendish Kinetics Limited in fiscal 2020, partially offset by discrete tax benefits recognized for stock-based compensation deductions. The discrete charge for the six months ended October 3, 2020 was further offset by a retroactive incentive allowing previously non-deductible payments to be amortized.

OVERVIEW

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") is intended to help the reader understand the consolidated results of operations and financial condition of Qorvo. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~Qorvo®~~Qorvo is a leader in the development and commercialization of technologies and products for wireless and wired connectivity. We combine ~~a broad portfolio of innovative radio frequency ("RF") solutions,~~ highly differentiated ~~semiconductor~~ technologies, systems-level expertise and ~~global~~ manufacturing scale to ~~supply~~serve a diverse set of customers a broad ~~range~~portfolio of ~~products~~innovative solutions that enable a more connected world.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic downturn are affecting business conditions in our industry. During the six months ended October 3, 2020, we did not encounter material disruptions to our global supply chain or operations, and we believe that our cash on hand (including from our recently issued senior notes), cash flows from operations and availability under our revolving credit facility provide us with sufficient liquidity. The duration, severity, and future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains highly uncertain, however, and may result in significant disruptions to our operations, including our supply chain, as well as negative impacts to our financial condition. We will continue to monitor the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, as well as our customers' and suppliers' businesses.

We design, develop, manufacture and market our products to U.S. and international original equipment manufacturers and original design manufacturers in two operating segments, which are also our reportable segments: Mobile Products ("MP") and Infrastructure and Defense Products ("IDP").

MP is a global supplier of cellular, ~~ultra-wide band~~Ultra Wideband ("UWB"), Wi-Fi and ~~Wi-Fi~~other solutions for a variety of ~~high-volume markets,~~applications, including smartphones, wearables, laptops, tablets and Internet of Things ("IoT") ~~applications.~~.

IDP is a global supplier of RF, system-on-a-chip and power management solutions for applications in wireless infrastructure, defense, Wi-Fi, smart home, automotive and IoT.

These business segments are based on the organizational structure and information reviewed by our Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), and are managed separately based on the end markets and applications they support. The CODM allocates resources and evaluates the performance of each operating and reportable segment primarily based on ~~non-GAAP~~ operating ~~income (see~~income. See Note 1211 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this report for additional information regarding our reportable operating ~~segments).~~segments.

In the first half of fiscal 2022, the semiconductor industry continued to experience supply constraints. While we expect the industry to address these constraints over time, we have taken strategic actions to provide flexibility in our supply chain. During the second quarter ended October 2, 2021, we entered into a long-term capacity agreement with a foundry supplier to reserve manufacturing supply capacity. Under the agreement we are required to purchase, and the foundry supplier is required to supply, a certain number of wafers for calendar years 2022 through 2025. See Note 9 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Item 1A., "Risk Factors" for additional information regarding this agreement.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a contributing factor of the semiconductor industry supply constraints and is likely to continue to cause volatility and uncertainty in customer demand, worldwide economies and financial markets for some period of time. To date, any negative impact of COVID-19 on the overall demand for our products, cash flow from operations, need for capital expenditures, and our liquidity position has been limited, although we are addressing capacity constraints in our supply chain as described above.

The Revolving Facility includes a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swing line loans. The Credit Facility is available to finance working capital, capital expenditures and other ~~lawful~~general corporate purposes. Outstanding amounts are due in full on the maturity date of September 29, 2025, subject to scheduled amortization of the 2020 Term Loan principal prior to the maturity date as set forth in the 2020 Credit Agreement. During the six months ended October ~~3, 2020,~~2, 2021, there were no borrowings under the Revolving Facility.

The 2020 Credit Agreement contains various conditions, covenants and representations with which we must be in compliance in order to borrow funds and to avoid an event of default. As of October ~~3, 2020,~~2, 2021, we were in compliance with these covenants.

Capital Commitments As of October 2, 2021, we had capital commitments of approximately $131.7 million primarily for increasing manufacturing capacity, expanding capability to support new products, equipment and facility upgrades and cost savings initiatives.

Purchase Obligations During the second quarter ended October 2, 2021, we entered into a long-term capacity agreement with a foundry supplier to reserve manufacturing supply capacity. See Note 79 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Part II, Item 1A., "Risk Factors" for additional information regarding ~~the 2031 Notes.~~our purchase obligations.

~~Capital Commitments~~ At October 3, 2020, we had capital commitments of approximately $62.2 million primarily for projects related to manufacturing capacity, cost savings initiatives, as well as for equipment upgrades and general corporate purposes.

Future Sources of Funding Our future capital requirements may differ materially from those currently projected and will depend on many factors, including ~~the long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business (including our supply chain), financial conditions, results of operations, cash flow, as well as~~ market acceptance of and demand for our products, acquisition opportunities, technological advances and our relationships with suppliers and customers. Based on current and projected levels of cash flow from operations, coupled with our existing cash, cash equivalents and our Credit Facility, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to meet both our short-term and long-term cash requirements. However, if there is a significant decrease in demand for our products, or in the event that growth is faster than we anticipate, operating cash flows may be insufficient to meet our needs. If our existing liquidity ~~combined with cash from operations are~~is not sufficient to meet our future requirements or if we perceive conditions to be favorable, we may seek additional debt or equity ~~financing. We cannot be sure that any additional debt or equity~~ financing ~~will not~~which could be dilutive to existing holders of our common ~~stock or~~stock. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that any additional debt or equity financing, if required, will be available on favorable terms, if at all.

Legal We are involved in various legal proceedings and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business that have not been fully adjudicated. ~~These actions,~~We accrue a liability for legal contingencies when ~~finally concluded~~we believe that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and ~~determined, will~~the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate developments in our legal matters that could affect the amount of the previously accrued liability and record adjustments as appropriate. Although it is not inpossible to predict with certainty the outcome of the unresolved legal matters, it is the opinion of management that these matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. The aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of accrued liabilities, if any, associated with these unresolved legal matters is not material.

Taxes We are subject to income and other taxes in the United States and in numerous foreign jurisdictions. Our domestic and foreign tax liabilities are subject to the allocation of revenues and expenses in different jurisdictions. Additionally, the amount of taxes paid is subject to our interpretation of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate. We are subject to audits by tax authorities. While we endeavor to comply with all applicable tax laws, there can be no assurance that a governing tax authority will not have a different interpretation of the law than we do or that we will comply in all respects with applicable tax laws, which could result in additional taxes. There can be no assurance that the outcomes from tax audits will not have an adverse effect on our results of operations in the period during which the review is conducted.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures in accordance with Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of such date, to enable the Company to record, process, summarize and report in a timely manner the information that the Company is required to disclose in its Exchange Act reports, and to accumulate and communicate such information to management, including the Company’s CEO and the CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended October ~~3, 2020~~2, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

Other than the risk factor set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors included in Qorvo’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020. In addition to the risk factor set forth below and the other information set forth in this report and in our other reports and statements that we file with the SEC, careful consideration should be given to the factors discussedidentified in Part I, Item 1A., ~~“Risk Factors”~~"Risk Factors" in Qorvo's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended ~~March 28, 2020, which could materially affect~~April 3, 2021.

We depend heavily on third parties.

We purchase numerous component parts, substrates and silicon-based products from external suppliers. We also utilize third-party suppliers for numerous services, including die processing, wafer bumping, test and tape and reel. The use of external suppliers involves a number of risks, including the possibility of material disruptions in the supply of key components and the lack of control over delivery schedules, capacity constraints, manufacturing yields, product quality and cost increases. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has created heightened risk that external suppliers may be unable to meet their obligations to us. If we experience any significant difficulty in obtaining the materials or services used in the conduct of our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in Qorvo's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial alsothese supply challenges may ~~materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.~~

~~Changes in government trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and export restrictions, have limited and could continue to~~ limit our ability to ~~sell our products to certain customers, which may materially adversely affect our sales and results of operations.~~fully satisfy customer demand.

The ~~U.S. or foreign governments have taken and may continue~~semiconductor industry has experienced supply constraints. In an effort to ~~take administrative, legislative or regulatory action that could materially interfere with~~support our ability to sell products in certain countries, particularly in China. For example, between July 2018 and June 2019, the Office of the United States Trade Representative imposed 25% tariffs on specified product lists, including certain electronic components and equipment, totaling approximately $250 billion in Chinese imports. In response, China imposed or proposed new or higher tariffs on U.S. products. The U.S. government also imposed 15% tariffs on an additional $120 billion of Chinese imports, with China imposing retaliatory tariffs. While the imposition of these tariffs did not have a direct, material adverse impact on our business during fiscal 2020, the direct and indirect effects of tariffs and other restrictive trade policies are difficult to measure and are only one part of a larger U.S./China economic and trade policy disagreement. For example, imposition of tariffs on our customers’ products that are imported from China to the U.S. could harm sales of such products, which would harm our business. We cannot predict what further actions may ultimately be taken with respect to tariffs or trade relations between the U.S. and China or other countries, what products may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by the other countries in retaliation.

Furthermore, we have experienced restrictions on our ability to sell products to certain foreign customers where sales of products require export licenses or are prohibited by government action. The U.S. government has in the past imposed export restrictions that effectively banned American companies from selling products to ZTE Corporation, one of our customers. In May 2019, the Bureau of Industry and Security of the U.S. Department of Commerce (“Commerce”) added Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. and over 100 of its affiliates to the “Entity List” maintained by Commerce, which caused us to temporarily suspend the shipment of products to Huawei. In August 2020, Commerce issued a final rule adding additional Huawei non-U.S. affiliates to the Entity List, confirming the expiration of a temporary general license applicable to Huawei, and amending the foreign-produced direct product rulefuture expected supply needs in a ~~manner that represents~~constrained environment, we entered into a significant expansion of its application to Huawei. Huawei accounted for 10%, 15% and 8% of our total revenue during fiscal years 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. While we restarted shipments to Huawei of certain products from outside the U.S. that were not subject to the Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) in fiscal 2020,capacity reservation agreement with a foundry supplier during the second quarter ended October 2, 2021. Under the agreement we are required to purchase, and the supplier is required to supply, a certain number of fiscal 2021, as a result of and in compliance with the most recent Commerce action, we suspended shipments of products to Huawei. While we have obtained a license to allow us to ship certain mobile products in compliance with the most recent Commerce action, our sales to Huawei will continue to be impacted by trade restrictions.

Aswafers for calendar years 2022 through 2025. See Note 9 of the ~~date~~Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. If our actual wafer requirements are less than the number of ~~this report,~~wafers required to meet the applicable wafer purchase requirements, we are unable to predict the scope and duration of the export restrictions imposed on Huawei and the corresponding future effects on our business. Even if such restrictions are lifted, any financial or other penalties or continuing export restrictions imposed on Huawei could have ~~a continuing negative~~excess inventory or higher inventory unit costs, both of which may adversely impact on our ~~future revenue~~gross margin and our results of operations. ~~In addition, Huawei~~Additionally, the agreement sets forth pricing for wafer purchases pursuant to the agreement through 2025. If market conditions change and wafer prices in the market decrease significantly below what is contemplated in the agreement, the agreement may put us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors.

Even with long-term supply agreements, we are still subject to risks that a supplier will be unable to meet its supply commitments, achieve anticipated manufacturing yields, produce wafers on a timely basis, or ~~other foreign customers affected by future U.S. government sanctions~~provide additional wafer capacity beyond its current contractual commitments sufficient to meet our supply needs. If so, we may experience delays in product launches or ~~threats of sanctions may respond by developing their own solutions to replace~~supply shortages for certain products, which could cause an unanticipated decline in our ~~products or by adopting~~sales and damage our foreign competitors’ solutions. Moreover, U.S. government actions targeting exports of certain technologies to China are becoming more pervasive. For example, in 2018, the U.S. adopted new laws designed to address concerns about the export of emergingexisting customer relationships and foundational technologies to China. In addition, in May 2019, an executive order was issued that invoked national emergency economic powers to implement a framework to regulate the acquisition or transfer of information communications technology in transactions that imposed undue national security risks. These actions could lead to additional restrictions on the export of products that include or enable certain technologies, including products we provide to China-based customers.

~~The loss or temporary loss of Huawei or other foreign customers or the imposition of restrictions on~~ our ability to ~~sell products~~establish new customer relationships. In addition, if a supplier experiences financial difficulties or goes into bankruptcy, it could be difficult or impossible, or may require substantial time and expense, for us to ~~such customers~~recover any or all of our fees and deposits made as ~~a result~~part of ~~tariffs, export restrictions~~ any long-term agreement.

Although our key suppliers commit to us to be compliant with applicable ISO 9001 and/or ~~other U.S. regulatory actions~~TS-16949 quality standards, we have experienced quality and reliability issues with suppliers in the past. Quality or reliability issues in our supply chain could ~~materially adversely~~negatively affect our ~~sales, business~~products, our reputation and our results of operations.
