Rewritten

In addition to the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K [removed: (“2023] [added: (“2024] Form 10-K”), the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating us and our business because such factors may significantly impact our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Rewritten

The variability in our customers’ investments during any particular period is dependent on several factors, [removed: including] [added: including,] but not limited [removed: to] [added: to,] electronics demand, economic conditions (both general and in the semiconductor and electronics industries), industry supply and demand, prices for semiconductors, and our customers’ ability to develop and manufacture increasingly complex and costly semiconductor devices.

Rewritten

Lam Research Corporation [removed: 2023] [added: 2024] 10-K 12

Rewritten

The economic, regulatory, political, and business conditions occurring nationally, globally, or in any of our key sales regions, which are often unpredictable, have historically impacted customer demand for our products and [added: services and] normal commercial relationships with our customers, suppliers, and creditors.

Rewritten

As a result, changing economic, regulatory, political or business conditions can cause material adverse changes to our results of operations and financial condition, [removed: including] [added: including,] but not limited to:

Rewritten

- exposure to claims from our suppliers for payment on inventory that is ordered in anticipation of customer purchases that do not come to fruition; [added: and]

Rewritten

Sales to a limited number of large customers constitute a significant portion of our overall [removed: revenue,] shipments, [added: revenue,] cash [removed: flows, collections,] [added: flows] and profitability.

Rewritten

[removed: We face significant competition from multiple competitors, and with] [added: With] increased consolidation efforts in our industry, as well as the emergence and strengthening of new, regional competitors, we may face increasing competitive pressures.

Rewritten

Lam Research Corporation [removed: 2023] [added: 2024] 10-K 13

Rewritten

[removed: In addition,] [added: We face significant competition from multiple competitors, and] our competitors may be able to develop products comparable or superior to those we offer or may adapt more quickly to new technologies or evolving customer requirements.

Rewritten

In particular, while we continue to develop product enhancements that we believe will address future customer requirements, we may fail in a timely manner to [added: identify those future customer requirements, to devote appropriate resources to developing products to address those requirements, or to] complete the development or introduction of these additional product enhancements successfully, or these product enhancements may not achieve market acceptance or be competitive.

Rewritten

In order to develop new products and processes and enhance existing products and processes, we expect to continue to make significant investments in R&D, to investigate the acquisition of [removed: new] products and technologies, to invest in or acquire [removed: such] businesses or technologies, and to pursue joint development relationships with customers, suppliers, or other members of the industry.

Rewritten

We may find that acquisitions are not available to us, for regulatory or other reasons, and that we must therefore limit ourselves to collaboration and joint venture development [removed: activities, which] [added: activities that] do not have the same benefits as acquisitions.

Rewritten

Pursuing development through collaboration and/or joint development activities rather than through an acquisition [removed: poses] [added: may pose] substantial challenges for management, including those related to aligning business objectives; sharing confidential information, intellectual property and data; sharing value with third parties; and realizing synergies that might have been available in an acquisition but are not available through a joint development project.

Rewritten

We must manage product transitions and joint development relationships successfully, as the introduction of new products could adversely affect our sales of existing products and certain jointly developed technologies may be subject to restrictions on our ability to share that [removed: technology with other customers,] [added: technology,] which could limit our market for products incorporating those technologies.

determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value.

Dropped from FY2023

The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units by using an income approach.

Dropped from FY2023

Under the income approach, the Company determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit, discounted by an estimated weighted-average cost of capital, which reflects the overall level of inherent risk of a reporting unit and the rate of return an outside investor would expect to earn.

Dropped from FY2023

In estimating the fair value of a reporting unit, the Company makes estimates and judgments about the future cash flows of its reporting units, including estimated growth rates and assumptions about the economic environment.

Dropped from FY2023

Although the Company’s cash flow forecasts are based on assumptions that are consistent with the plans and estimates it is using to manage the underlying businesses, there is significant judgment involved in determining the cash flows attributable to a reporting unit.

Dropped from FY2023

In addition, the Company makes certain judgments about allocating shared assets to the estimated balance sheets of its reporting units.

Dropped from FY2023

Changes in judgment on these assumptions and estimates could result in a goodwill impairment charge.

Dropped from FY2023

If after completing the quantitative assessment the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company would record an impairment charge equal to the excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit over its fair value, up to the amount the goodwill assigned to the reporting unit.
