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.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we updated our organizational
structure to more closely align similar technologies and applications with
customers and end markets. We now manage our business and report our financial
results in three reportable segments: High Performance Analog ("HPA"),
HPA is a leading global supplier of RF and power management solutions for infrastructure, defense and aerospace, automotive power and other markets. HPA leverages a diverse portfolio of differentiated technologies and products to support multiyear drivers, including electrification, renewable energy, the increasing semiconductor spend in defense and 5G deployments outside ofChina . CSG is a leading global supplier of connectivity and sensor components and systems featuring multiple technologies including UWB, Matter®, Bluetooth® Low Energy, Zigbee®, Thread®, Wi-Fi®, cellular IoT and MEMS-/BAW-based sensors. CSG combines the connectivity and sensors businesses formerly split between Mobile Products and Infrastructure and Defense Products. CSG's markets include smart home, automotive connectivity, industrial automation, smartphones, wearables, gaming and other high-growth IoT connectivity and healthcare markets. ACG is a leading global supplier of cellular RF solutions for a variety of devices, including smartphones, wearables, laptops and tablets. ACG leverages world-class technology, systems-level expertise and product portfolio breadth to deliver high performance cellular products to the world's leading smartphone and consumer electronics companies. It is a highly diversified supplier of custom and open market cellular solutions, with broad reach across iOS and Android original equipment manufacturers. 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 operating income. Refer to Note 10 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our reportable operating segments as ofOctober 1, 2022 . As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed onMay 20, 2022 , the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the semiconductor industry supply chain causing uncertainty in customer demand, worldwide economies and financial markets. During fiscal 2023, we have experienced unexpectedly weakened demand for 5G handsets inChina and EMEA due to unprecedented disruption resulting from measures taken inChina to control the COVID-19 pandemic and the conflict inUkraine . As a result, we did not meet the minimum purchase commitments under a long-term capacity reservation agreement with a foundry supplier. In the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the purchase shortfall resulted in an impairment to the prepaid refundable deposit of approximately$13.0 million and additional reserves of approximately$11.0 million for inventory in excess of demand forecasts were recorded. Additionally, we assessed the future minimum purchase commitments over the remaining term of the agreement and recorded an estimated shortfall of$86.0 million in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 330, "Inventory." These transactions resulted in a total increase to cost of goods sold of$110.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. InOctober 2022 , we renegotiated the terms of the agreement with the foundry supplier, which included extending the duration of the agreement through calendar year 2026. We believe that the amended agreement more closely aligns the contractual purchase commitments with our forecasted demand. As a result of the amended agreement, in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we recorded an impairment to the prepaid refundable deposit of approximately$38.0 million and additional reserves of approximately$5.0 million for inventory in excess of demand forecasts, which reduced the estimated shortfall liability that was previously recorded, by$43.0 million . Therefore, the amended agreement did not impact the income statement in the second quarter of fiscal 2023. In performing this assessment, we considered Company-specific forecasts, legal obligations, macroeconomic and geopolitical factors as well as market and industry trends. These factors include significant 19 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents management judgment and estimates and, to the extent that these assumptions are incorrect or there are further declines in management's demand forecasts, additional charges may be recorded in future periods.
SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2023 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
•Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 decreased 7.7% as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2022, driven primarily by lower demand for 5G handsets inChina and EMEA and a decrease in end market demand for Wi-Fi and cellular IoT components. These decreases were partially offset by content gains in mass-tier handsets as well as higher demand for our defense, base station and silicon carbide based power management products. •Gross margin for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 decreased to 46.5% as compared to 49.5% for the second quarter of fiscal 2022, primarily due to lower factory utilization and unfavorable inventory charges resulting from demand fluctuations and a quality defect from a third-party supplier. These decreases to gross margin were partially offset by favorable changes in product mix. •Operating income was$261.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 as compared to$362.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2022. This decrease was primarily due to lower revenue, lower gross margin, and higher operating expenses.
•Net income per diluted share was
•Capital expenditures were
•During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we repurchased approximately 1.7

Also contributing to our lower revenue was a decrease in end market demand for Wi-Fi and cellular IoT components. These decreases were partially offset by content gains in mass-tier handsets as well as higher demand for our defense, base station and silicon carbide based power management products. Gross margin decreased for the three months endedOctober 1, 2022 , compared to the three months endedOctober 2, 2021 , primarily due to lower factory utilization and unfavorable inventory charges resulting from demand fluctuations and a quality defect from a third-party supplier. These decreases to gross margin were partially offset by favorable changes in product mix. Gross margin decreased for the six months endedOctober 1, 2022 , compared to the six months endedOctober 2, 2021 , primarily due to charges recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 associated with a long-term capacity reservation agreement, lower factory utilization and unfavorable inventory charges (resulting from demand fluctuations and a quality defect from a third-party supplier), partially offset by favorable changes in product mix. Operating expenses increased for the three and six months endedOctober 1, 2022 , compared to the three and six months endedOctober 2, 2021 , primarily due to additional headcount and higher design and development costs associated with our power management solutions and our 5G related technologies and products. Travel expenses also increased during the three and six months endedOctober 1, 2022 , as travel restrictions and Company policies originally implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic have eased. 21

During the three and six months endedOctober 2, 2021 , we recorded interest expense primarily related to our 2029 Notes and our 2031 Notes. Refer to Note 6 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. 23 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Other income (expense), net Other income (expense) includes our share of investments in limited partnerships' earnings and gains (losses) from our other investments. Refer to Notes 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Income tax expense During the three and six months endedOctober 1, 2022 , we recorded income tax expense of$58.3 million and$68.9 million , respectively, comprised primarily of tax expense related to international operations generating pre-tax book income and the impact of global intangible low tax income, partially offset by tax benefits related to domestic and international operations generating pre-tax book losses and domestic tax credits and discrete tax items recorded during the period. The discrete tax expense for the three months endedOctober 1, 2022 primarily resulted from foreign currency gains recognized for tax purposes. The discrete tax benefit for the six months endedOctober 1, 2022 primarily resulted from certain charges associated with a long-term capacity reservation agreement (refer to Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information). During the three and six months endedOctober 2, 2021 , we recorded income tax expense of$32.6 million and$45.6 million , respectively, comprised primarily of tax expense related to domestic and international operations generating pre-tax book income, partially offset by tax benefits related to international operations generating pre-tax book losses, domestic tax credits and discrete tax items recorded during the period. The discrete tax benefit for the three and six months endedOctober 2, 2021 was primarily related to stock-based compensation deductions and net tax benefits associated with other non-recurring restructuring activities, including a discrete tax charge associated with the intercompany restructuring of theNextInput, Inc. intellectual property. The discrete tax benefit for the six months endedOctober 2, 2021 was also due in part to the recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. A valuation allowance remained against certain domestic and foreign net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the related deferred tax assets will not be realized.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash generated by operations is our primary source of liquidity. As of
Our$911.6 million of total cash and cash equivalents as ofOctober 1, 2022 , includes approximately$776.5 million held by our foreign subsidiaries, of which$601.9 million is held byQorvo International Pte. Ltd. inSingapore . If the undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are needed in theU.S. , we may be required to pay state income and/or foreign local withholding taxes to repatriate these earnings. Stock Repurchases During the six months endedOctober 1, 2022 , we repurchased approximately 4.9 million shares of our common stock for approximately$510.1 million (including transaction costs) under our share repurchase program. As ofOctober 1, 2022 , approximately$351.6 million remains available for repurchases under the program. 24 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Cash Flows from Operating Activities Net cash provided by operating activities was$540.4 million and$586.4 million for the six months endedOctober 1, 2022 andOctober 2, 2021 , respectively. This decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to decreased profitability and the associated negative working capital impact resulting from lower demand for 5G handsets inChina and EMEA. Cash Flows from Investing Activities Net cash used in investing activities was$84.3 million and$267.6 million for the six months endedOctober 1, 2022 andOctober 2, 2021 , respectively.

Refer to Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our business acquisitions. Cash Flows from Financing Activities Net cash used in financing activities was$513.0 million and$562.8 million for the six months endedOctober 1, 2022 andOctober 2, 2021 , respectively, primarily due to our stock repurchases and cash transactions related to equity. Refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our stock repurchases.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Credit Agreement OnSeptember 29, 2020 , we and certain of ourU.S. subsidiaries (the "Guarantors") entered into a five-year unsecured senior credit facility pursuant to a credit agreement (as amended, restated, modified or otherwise supplemented from time to time, the "Credit Agreement") withBank of America, N.A ., acting as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Credit Agreement amended and restated our previous credit agreement dated as ofDecember 5, 2017 . The Credit Agreement includes a senior revolving line of credit (the "Revolving Facility") of up to$300.0 million and included a senior term loan of$200.0 million (collectively the "Credit Facility") which was fully repaid in fiscal 2022. 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 general corporate purposes. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, we may request one or more additional tranches of term loans or increases to the Revolving Facility, up to an aggregate of$500.0 million and subject to, among other things, securing additional funding commitments from the existing or new lenders.
During the six months ended
The 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 ofOctober 1, 2022 , we were in compliance with these covenants. 2024 Notes OnDecember 14, 2021 , we issued$500.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 2024 Notes. Interest on the 2024 Notes is payable onJune 15 andDecember 15 of each year at a rate of 1.750% per annum. The 2024 Notes will mature onDecember 15, 2024 , unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their terms. The 2024 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by the Guarantors. 2029 Notes OnSeptember 30, 2019 , we issued$350.0 million aggregate principal amount of our senior notes due 2029 (the "Initial 2029 Notes"). OnDecember 20, 2019 , andJune 11, 2020 , we issued an additional$200.0 million and$300.0 million , respectively, aggregate principal amount of such notes (together with the Initial 2029 Notes, the "2029 Notes"). Interest on the 2029 Notes is payable onApril 15 andOctober 15 of each year at a rate of 4.375% per annum. The 2029 Notes will mature onOctober 15, 2029 , unless earlier redeemed in accordance with their terms.

Capital Commitments As of
Purchase Obligations Refer to Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our purchase obligations.
Future Sources of Funding Our future capital requirements may differ materially from those currently projected and will depend on many factors, including 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 flows 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 if our revenue grows faster than we anticipate, operating cash flows may be insufficient to meet our needs. If existing resources and cash from operations are not sufficient to meet our future requirements or if we perceive conditions to be favorable, we may seek additional debt or equity financing. Additional debt or equity financing could be dilutive to holders of our common stock. Further, we cannot be sure 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. We accrue a liability for legal contingencies when we believe that it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and 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 possible 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 inthe 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.
