Risk Change Over Time
- Corporate Activity and Growth - Risk 1We have made made, and may, in the future, make expect to make, acquisitions and investments, which involve numerous risks.
We routinely evaluate potential acquisitions, investments and strategic alliances involving complementary technologies, design teams, products and businesses. We expect to pursue such transactions if appropriate opportunities arise. However, we may not be able to identify suitable transactions in the future or if we do identify such transactions, we may not be able to complete them on commercially acceptable terms or at all and may face intense competition for such opportunities. For example, on April 27, 2026, MACOM US entered into a share subscription agreement with Investee pursuant to which MACOM US will purchase newly-issued ordinary shares of Investee for £30.0 million and £15.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible loan notes to be issued by Investee. In this transaction and any other potential transactions we may pursue in the future, we will face numerous risks, including, among others, diverting management's attention from normal daily operations of our business; inability to exercise control or influence over the operations, strategy or financial decisions of a company in which we have made an investment; dependence on the existing management, board and operations of investee companies to successfully execute their business plans; exposure to risks and liabilities arising from the operations of investee companies over which we may have limited or no control; decline in the value of our investments due to factors including the investee company's financial performance, market conditions, competitive pressures or adverse developments in the investee company's industry; failing to realize the anticipated strategic benefits and synergies of an acquisition or investment; difficulties in integrating the financial reporting capabilities and operating systems of any acquired operations to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures; potential loss of key personnel of the acquired company as well as their know-how, relationships and expertise; challenges successfully integrating acquired personnel, operations and businesses; maintaining favorable business relationships of acquired operations; generating insufficient revenue from completed transactions to offset expenses associated with our efforts; acquiring material or unknown liabilities associated with any acquired operations; litigation associated with merger and acquisition transactions; and increasing expense associated with amortization or depreciation of intangible and tangible assets we acquire. Our past acquisitions and other transactions required significant management time and attention relating to the transactions. Past transactions, whether completed or not by us, have resulted, and in the future may result, in significant time and attention, costs, expenses, liabilities and charges to earnings. The accounting treatment for any future transaction may negatively affect our consolidated results of operations. The accounting treatment may also result in significant goodwill or intangible assets, which, if impaired, will negatively affect our consolidated results of operations. Furthermore, we may incur debt or issue equity securities to pay for transactions. The incurrence of debt could limit our operating flexibility and be detrimental to our profitability, and the issuance of equity securities would be dilutive to our existing stockholders. Any or all of the above factors may differ from the investment community's expectations in a given quarter, which could negatively affect our stock price. In the event we make future investments, the investments may decline in value, we may lose all or part of our investment.

Risk Factors Full Breakdown - Total Risks 48
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 1The market price of our common stock may be volatile, which could result in substantial losses for investors.
We cannot predict the prices at which our common stock will trade. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, depending upon many factors, some of which may be beyond our control. In addition to the risks described in this Annual Report, other factors that may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate include changes in general economic, political, industry and market conditions; general market price and volume fluctuations, including increased inflationary pressure and other volatility including pandemics; domestic and international economic factors unrelated to our performance; actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results; changes in or failure to meet publicly disclosed expectations as to our future financial performance; changes in securities analysts' estimates of our financial performance, lack of research and reports by industry analysts or negative research and reports by industry analysts; addition or loss of significant customers; announcements by us or our competitors, customers or suppliers of significant products, contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships or other events; any future sales of our common stock or other securities; and additions or departures of directors, executives or key personnel. For example, between February 5, 2025 and April 8, 2025, the market price of our common stock had a cumulative decline of approximately 35.4%. Companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities class action litigation. We may be the target of this type of litigation in the future. Securities litigation against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention from other business concerns, which could seriously harm our business.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 2Some of our stockholders can exert control over us and they may not make decisions that reflect our interests or those of other stockholders.
Our largest stockholder controls a significant amount of our outstanding common stock. As of October 3, 2025, Susan Ocampo beneficially owned 12.5% of our common stock. As a result, this stockholder will be able to exert a significant degree of influence over our management and affairs and control over matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of our directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. In addition, this concentration of ownership may delay or prevent a change in control of us and might affect the market price of our securities. In addition, the interests of this stockholder may not always coincide with your interests or the interests of other stockholders.
- Share Price & Shareholder Rights - Risk 3Anti-takeover provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could prevent or delay a change in control of our company that stockholders may consider beneficial and may adversely affect the price of our stock.
Provisions of our fifth amended and restated certificate of incorporation and third amended and restated bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or change of control that a stockholder may consider favorable. These provisions could also discourage proxy contests and make it more difficult for stockholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. The existence of these provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. These provisions include authorization of the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock, staggered elections of directors and advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors and for proposing matters to be submitted to a stockholder vote. Provisions of Delaware law may also discourage, delay or prevent someone from acquiring or merging with our company or obtaining control of our company. Specifically, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporate Law may prohibit business combinations with stockholders owning 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. Our board of directors could rely on Delaware law to prevent or delay an acquisition of the Company and this reliance could reduce our value.
