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, 2023.

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, 2023.

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, 2023. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Recent accounting standards

Accounting standards not yet adopted

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, requiring disclosure of certain incremental segment information on an annual and interim basis, including (among other items) additional disclosure about significant segment expenses and that a public entity that has a single reportable segment provide all the disclosures required by this ASU. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt ASU 2023-07 for our annual periods starting in fiscal year 2024 (and interim periods thereafter) on a retrospective basis and continue to evaluate the impact on our disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, requiring to disclose annually certain additional disaggregated income tax information related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid, among other items. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. We will adopt the new requirements starting for our annual period starting in 2025 and continue to evaluate the basis of adoption and impact on our 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.

There were no stock options to purchase shares of NXP’s common stock that were outstanding in Q3 2024 and YTD 2024 (Q3 2023 and YTD 2023: no shares) that were anti-dilutive and were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the exercise price was greater than the average fair market value of the common stock or the number of shares assumed to be repurchased using the proceeds of unrecognized compensation expense and exercise prices were greater than the weighted average number of shares underlying outstanding stock options.

  2. There were no unvested RSUs, PSUs and equity rights that were outstanding in Q3 2024 and 0.2 million shares outstanding YTD 2024 (Q3 2023 and YTD 2023: no shares) that were anti-dilutive and were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the number of shares assumed to be repurchased using the proceeds of unrecognized compensation expense were greater than the weighted average number of outstanding unvested RSUs, PSUs and equity rights or the performance goal has not been met yet.

As of January 1, 2024AdditionsUtilizedReleasedOther changesAs of September 29, 2024
Restructuring liabilities10122(57)(9)(1)56

The total restructuring liability as of September 29, 2024 of $56 million is classified in the consolidated balance sheet under current liabilities ($52 million) and non-current liabilities ($4 million).

The restructuring charges for the nine-month period ending September 29, 2024 primarily consist of $21 million for personnel related costs for specific targeted actions, offset by a $9 million release for earlier programs. The restructuring charges for the nine-month period ending October 1, 2023 consist of $21 million for personnel related costs for a restructuring program in 2023, offset by a $7 million release for an earlier program.

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

Net restructuring charges—(4)1314

6 Income Tax

Each year NXP makes an 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 2024 is based on our EAETR of 17.7%, which is lower than the Netherlands statutory tax rate of 25.8%, primarily due to tax benefits from the Netherlands and foreign tax incentives.

For the three months endedFor the nine months ended
September 29, 2024October 1, 2023September 29, 2024October 1, 2023
Tax benefit (provision) calculated at EAETR(160)(134)(446)(407)
Discrete tax benefit (provision) items(13)11(22)8
Benefit (provision) for income taxes(173)(123)(468)(399)
Effective tax rate19.0%13.4%18.6%15.8%

The effective tax rate of 19.0% for the third quarter of 2024 was higher than the EAETR due to the income tax expense for discrete items of $13 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. In addition to this, there was a recapture of tax benefit of $1 million due to a higher EAETR compared to prior quarter.

For the first nine months ended 2024 the effective tax rate of 18.6% was higher than 17.7% due to a net result of unfavorable discrete items of $22 million.

The effective tax rate of 18.6% for the first nine months of 2024 was higher compared to the rate for the first nine months ended 2023 of 15.8% due to a different mix of the benefit (provision) for income taxes in our operating locations, lower foreign tax incentives in the current period as a result of a decrease in qualifying income, newly enacted alternative minimum tax law as per 2024, and also due to the impact of the discrete items in the respective periods.

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 hierarchySeptember 29, 2024December 31, 2023
Assets:
Short-term deposits1400409
Money market funds11,9123,137
Marketable equity securities1212
Derivative instruments-assets21412
Liabilities:
Derivative instruments-liabilities2(5)(3)

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 short-term deposits, representing liquid assets with original maturity beyond three months and having no significant risk of changes in fair value, are represented at carrying value as reasonable estimates of fair value due to the relatively short period of time between the origination of the instruments and their expected realization. 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 September 29, 2024, the estimated fair value of current and non-current debt was $9.5 billion ($10.3 billion as of December 31, 2023). 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 September 29, 2024, other than foundry joint venture commitments, the Company had purchase commitments of $3,468 million, which are due through 2044.

Foundry Joint Venture Commitments

Driven by our investment in VisionPower Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Pte. Ltd. (VSMC), NXP has initially invested $140 million of equity in the third quarter of 2024 and has committed to invest an additional $1,460 million in equity through 2026. NXP has committed to contribute an additional $1,200 million to support the long-term capacity infrastructure that is expected to be paid through 2026. In addition, NXP has an agreed purchase commitment with VSMC that over the lifetime of the factory the minimal loading will be between 80% - 90%, resulting in a total purchase commitment of approximately $14,242 million that is expected to be purchased over 37 years once wafer production starts.

Related to our investment in European Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ESMC) GmbH, NXP has committed to invest an additional $526 million in equity through 2028.

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.

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 21 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 $236 million accrued for potential and current legal proceedings pending as of September 29, 2024, compared to $112 million accrued at December 31, 2023 (without reduction for any related insurance reimbursements). The accruals are included in “Other current liabilities” and in “Other non-current liabilities”. As of September 29, 2024, the Company’s related balance of insurance reimbursements was $209 million (December 31, 2023: $67 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 September 29, 2024, 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 $235 million. Based upon our past experience with these matters, the Company would expect to receive additional insurance reimbursement of up to $212 million on certain of these claims that would partially offset the potential aggregate exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued.
