NXP SEMICONDUCTORS N.V.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

All amounts in millions of $ unless otherwise stated

1 Basis of Presentation and Overview

We prepared our interim condensed consolidated financial statements that accompany these notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, consistent in all material respects with those applied in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

We have made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all normal adjustments that are, in our opinion, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This interim information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

2 Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Significant Accounting Policies

For a discussion of our significant accounting policies see, “Part II – Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – “Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Accounting standards recently adopted

In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, Liabilities—Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. ASU 2022-04, which require that a buyer in a supplier finance program to disclose sufficient information about the program, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. ASU 2022-04 became effective for us on January 1, 2023. We have assessed our current positions and the interrelation to the amendments and the adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

No other new accounting pronouncements were issued or became effective in the period that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

The dividend declared in the third quarter (not yet paid) is classified in the condensed consolidated balance sheet in other current liabilities as of October 1, 2023 and was subsequently paid on October 5, 2023.

5 Restructuring

At each reporting date, we evaluate our restructuring liabilities, which consist primarily of termination benefits, to ensure that our accruals are still appropriate.

The following table presents the changes in restructuring liabilities in 2023:

As of January 1, 2023AdditionsUtilizedReleasedOther changesAs of October 1, 2023
Restructuring liabilities2021(13)(7)(2)19

The total restructuring liability as of October 1, 2023 of $19 million is classified in the consolidated balance sheet under current liabilities ($16 million) and non-current liabilities ($3 million).

The restructuring charges for the nine month period ending October 1, 2023 consist of $21 million for personnel related costs for a new restructuring program, offset by a $7 million release for an earlier program. There were no significant restructuring costs incurred for the nine month period ended October 2, 2022 and the utilization of the restructuring liabilities mainly reflects the execution of ongoing restructuring programs the Company initiated in earlier years.

These restructuring charges recorded in operating income, for the periods indicated, are included in the following line items in the statement of operations:

6 Income Tax

For the three months endedFor the nine months ended
October 1, 2023October 2, 2022October 1, 2023October 2, 2022
Benefit (provision) for income taxes(123)(149)(399)(392)
Effective tax rate13.4%16.5%15.8%15.8%
Statutory income tax rate in the Netherlands25.8%25.8%25.8%25.8%

Beginning with the first quarter of 2023, NXP was in a position to make a reliable estimate of its annual effective tax rate. This estimated annual effective tax rate ("EAETR") is then applied to the year-to-date Income (loss) before income taxes excluding discrete items, to determine the year-to-date benefit (provision) for income taxes. The income tax effects of any discrete items are recognized in the interim period in which they occur. As the year progresses, the Company continually refines the EAETR based upon actual events and the apportionment of our earnings (loss). This continual estimation process periodically may result in a change to our EAETR for the year. When this occurs, we adjust on an accumulated basis the benefit (provision) for income taxes during the quarter in which the change occurs.

Our provision for income taxes for 2023 is based on our EAETR of 16.1%, which is lower than the Netherlands statutory tax rate of 25.8%, primarily due to tax benefits from the Netherlands and foreign tax incentives.

The effective tax rate of 13.4% for the third quarter of 2023 was lower than the EAETR due to the income tax benefit for discrete items of $12 million. The discrete items are primarily related to changes in estimates for previous years, and the impact of foreign currency on income tax related items. Compared to prior quarters, the EAETR was lower due to a recapture of $13 million tax benefit in the third quarter primarily as a result of new guidance released by the Internal Revenue Service to clarify the treatment of specified research and experimental expenditures under Section 174.

For the first nine months of 2023 the effective tax rate of 15.8% was lower than 16.1% due to the net result of favorable discrete items of $8 million.

The effective tax rate of 15.8% for the first nine months of 2022 was equal to the current period of 15.8%.

7 Identified Intangible Assets

10 Fair Value Measurements

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Estimated fair value
Fair value hierarchyOctober 1, 2023December 31, 2022
Assets:
Money market funds13,0562,817
Marketable equity securities1129
Derivative instruments-assets218
Liabilities:
Derivative instruments-liabilities2(20)(6)

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Investments in money market funds (as part of our cash and cash equivalents) and marketable equity securities (as part of other non-current assets) have fair value measurements which are all based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. For derivatives (as part of other current assets or accrued liabilities) the fair value is based upon significant other observable inputs depending on the nature of the derivative.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis

We measure and record our non-marketable equity securities, equity method investments and non-financial assets, such as intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, at fair value when an impairment charge is required.

Assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis

Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include non-marketable equity securities and equity method investments that have not been remeasured or impaired in the current period and debt.

As of October 1, 2023, the estimated fair value of current and non-current debt was $9.6 billion ($9.8 billion as of December 31, 2022). The fair value is estimated on the basis of broker-dealer quotes, which are Level 2 inputs. Accrued interest is included under accrued liabilities and not within the carrying amount or estimated fair value of debt.

11 Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

The Company maintains purchase commitments with certain suppliers, primarily for raw materials, semi-finished goods and manufacturing services and for some non-production items. Purchase commitments for inventory materials are generally restricted to a forecasted time-horizon as mutually agreed upon between the parties. This forecasted time-horizon can vary for different suppliers. As of October 1, 2023, the Company had purchase commitments of $3.9 billion, which are due through 2044. Our long-term obligations increased substantially in 2021 as we locked in long-term supply with our key manufacturing partners.

Legal Proceedings

We are regularly involved as plaintiffs or defendants in claims and litigation relating to a variety of matters such as contractual disputes, personal injury claims, employee grievances and intellectual property litigation. In addition, our acquisitions, divestments and financial transactions sometimes result in, or are followed by, claims or litigation. Some of these claims may possibly be recovered from insurance reimbursements. Although the ultimate disposition of asserted claims cannot be predicted with certainty, it is our belief that the outcome of any such claims, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. However, such outcomes may be material to our condensed consolidated statement of operations for a particular period. The Company records an accrual for any claim that arises whenever it considers that it is probable that it is exposed to a loss contingency and the amount of the loss contingency can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not record a gain contingency until the period in which all contingencies are resolved and the gain is realized or realizable. Legal fees are expensed when incurred.

Impinj Patent Litigation

We are involved in a dispute with Impinj, Inc. (“Impinj”) regarding the infringement of IP rights. Impinj has initiated a number of lawsuits alleging infringement of their IP rights by certain of our products and we have initiated a lawsuit and countersuit alleging infringement of our IP rights by certain products of Impinj. Specifically, on June 6, 2019, Impinj filed a complaint against us in the U.S District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Court”) alleging that certain of our products (NXP’s UCODE8 and UCODE 9 integrated circuits) infringed 26 Impinj patents. The case was subsequently narrowed to two patents: U.S. patent nos. 9,633,302 (the “’302 patent”) and 8,115,597 (the “’597 patent”), seeking damages and injunctive relief. Before trial, the Court granted summary judgment of infringement on the ‘302 patent. At trial, on July 14, 2023, the jury returned a verdict finding that NXP infringed the asserted claims of the ‘597 patent. The jury awarded approximately $19 million in damages. The Court subsequently issued its judgment on October 3, 2023, reducing the award to approximately $13 million, ordering a new trial on the ‘302 patent, and denying Impinj’s request for an injunction based on infringement of the

‘597 patent. NXP intends to appeal the judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. On May 25, 2021, Impinj initiated a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas (Waco) alleging that certain of our products infringe 9 Impinj patents. NXP countersued alleging that certain products of Impinj infringe 9 patents owned or licensed by NXP. This case commenced into trial beginning October 30, 2023. We dispute Impinj’s claims and intend to continue to pursue available defenses and appeals. We are unable to make a reasonable estimate of losses in excess of the currently accrued amounts given recent developments and future proceedings.

Motorola Personal Injury Lawsuits

The Company is currently assisting Motorola in the defense of personal injury lawsuits due to indemnity obligations included in the agreement that separated Freescale from Motorola in 2004. The multi-plaintiff Motorola lawsuits are pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois. These claims allege a link between working in semiconductor manufacturing clean room facilities and birth defects in 22 individuals. The Motorola suits allege exposures between 1980 and 2005. Each claim seeks an unspecified amount of damages for the alleged injuries; however, legal counsel representing the plaintiffs has indicated they will seek substantial compensatory and punitive damages from Motorola for the entire inventory of claims which, if proven and recovered, the Company considers to be material. A portion of any indemnity due to Motorola will be reimbursed to NXP if Motorola receives an indemnification payment from its insurance coverage. Motorola has potential insurance coverage for many of the years indicated above, but with differing types and levels of coverage, self-insurance retention amounts and deductibles. We are in discussions with Motorola and their insurers regarding the availability of applicable insurance coverage for each of the individual cases. Motorola and NXP have denied liability for these alleged injuries based on numerous defenses.

Legal Proceedings Related Accruals and Insurance Coverage

The Company reevaluates at least on a quarterly basis the claims that have arisen to determine whether any new accruals need to be made or whether any accruals made need to be adjusted based on the most current information available to it and based on its best estimate. Based on the procedures described above, the Company has an aggregate amount of $114 million accrued for potential and current legal proceedings pending as of October 1, 2023, compared to $58 million accrued at December 31, 2022 (without reduction for any related insurance reimbursements). The accruals are included in “Other current liabilities” and in “Other non-current liabilities”. As of October 1, 2023, the Company’s related balance of insurance reimbursements was $67 million (December 31, 2022: $43 million) and is included in “Other non-current assets”.

The Company also estimates the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amount accrued based on currently available information for those cases for which such estimate can be made. The estimated aggregate range requires significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings, the existence of multiple defendants (including the Company) in such claims whose share of liability has yet to be determined, the numerous yet-unresolved issues in many of the claims, and the attendant uncertainty of the various potential outcomes of such claims. Accordingly, the Company’s estimate will change from time to time, and actual losses may be more than the current estimate. As at October 1, 2023, the Company believes that for all litigation pending its potential aggregate exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued (without reduction for any amounts that may possibly be recovered under insurance programs) could range between $0 and $100 million. Based upon our past experience with these matters, the Company would expect to receive additional insurance reimbursement of up to $70 million on certain of these claims that would partially offset the potential aggregate exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued.
