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 20‑F10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2021.

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 20-F10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2021.

Prior to January 1, 2019, HPMS was our sole reportable segment. Corporate and Other represented the remaining portion to reconcile to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Effective January 1, 2019, NXP removed the reference to HPMS in its organizational structure in acknowledgment of the one reportable segment representing the entity as a whole.

On May 29, 2019, we entered into a definitive agreement with Marvell Technology Group Ltd. ("Marvell") under which NXP will acquire Marvell’s Wireless WiFi Connectivity Business Unit, Bluetooth technology portfolio and related assets, for $1.76 billion in cash. Subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, the transaction is expected to close by the first quarter of 2020 even though there could be a possibility for an accelerated closing timeline.

2 Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Significant Accounting Policies
Except for the changes below, no material changes have been made to the Company'sFor a discussion of our significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 Significantsee, “Part II – Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – “Significant Accounting Policies inPolicies” of our Annual Report on Form 20-F10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The2021. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policy information below is to aid inpolicies since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the understanding of the financial information disclosed.year ended December 31, 2021.

In February 2016, the FASBAccounting standards recently adopted

No new accounting pronouncements were issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), followed in July 2018 by ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842 Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. Under the new transition method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earningsor became effective in the period of adoption. As a result of this adoption and the required disclosures, the Company revised its accounting policy for leases as stated below.

The new standard became effective for us on January 1, 2019. Under the standard, disclosuresthat had, or are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. See also Note 10, Leases.

Leases
As of January 1, 2019, our impact resulting from operating leases is as follows:
we have recognized right-of-use (ROU) assets (within other non-current assets) and lease liabilities of $188 million;
the short-term portion of the lease liabilities of $53 million is classified in the condensed consolidated balance sheet in other current liabilities; and
the long-term portion of the lease liabilities of $135 million is classified in the condensed consolidated balance sheet in other non-current liabilities.
We elected to adopt the package of practical expedients to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs, along with the practical expedient to use hindsight when determining the lease term.

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception of the arrangement. Once it is determined that an arrangement is, or contains, a lease, that determination should only be reassessed if the legal arrangement is modified. Changes to assumptions such as market-based factors do not trigger a reassessment. Determining whether a contract contains a lease requires judgement. In general, arrangements are considered to be a lease when all of the following apply:
it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration;
we have substantially all economic benefits from the use of the asset; and
we can direct the use of the identified asset.

The terms of a lease arrangement determine how a lease is classified and the resulting income statement recognition. When the terms of a lease effectively transfer control of the underlying asset, the lease represents an in substance financed purchase (sale) of an asset and the lease is classified as a finance lease by the lessee and a sales-type lease by the lessor. When a lease does not effectively transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee, but the lessor obtains a guarantee for the value of the asset from a third party, the lessor would classify a lease as a direct financing lease. All other leases are classified as operating leases.


With the exception of two instances (with a combined value of approximately $30 million), the Company’s lease arrangements were all operating leases.

Lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at January 1, 2019 or commencement date, if later, in determining the present value of future payments. The lease ROU asset includes any lease payment made and initial direct costs incurred. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease which are included in the measurement of the ROU assets and lease liabilities when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

For operating leases the lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the condensed consolidated statement of operations over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The finance lease asset is depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term on a straight-line basis.

We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. Except for gas and chemical contracts, NXP did not make the election to treat the lease and non-lease components as a single component, and considers the non-lease components as a separate unit of account.

Accounting standards adopted in 2019
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvement to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 simplifies certain aspects of hedge accounting and improves disclosures of hedging arrangements through the elimination of the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. The ASU generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. Entities must apply the amendments to cash flow and net investment hedge relationships that exist on the date of adoption using a modified retrospective approach. The presentation and disclosure requirements must be applied prospectively. ASU 2017-12 became effective for us on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Recently issued accounting standards
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, the one step quantitative impairment test calculates goodwill impairment as the excess of the carrying value of a reporting unit over its fair value, up to the carrying value of the goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The ASU should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidanceexpected to have, a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 removes certain disclosure requirements, including the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 also adds disclosure requirements, including changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 removes disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-14 should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-15 requires a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense. Therefore, a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract determines which project stage an implementation activity relates to. Costs for implementation activities in the application development stage are capitalized depending on the nature of the costs, while costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are expensed as the activities are performed. ASU 2018-15 also requires the customer to expense the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement, and to apply the existing impairment guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to the capitalized implementation costs as if the costs were long-lived assets. ASU 2018-15 can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.


3 Acquisitions and Divestments

2022
There were 0no material acquisitions or divestments during the first ninethree months of 2019. On March 27, 2019, we sold our remaining equity interest in WeEn, receiving net cash proceeds of $37 million.2022.

4 Assets Held for Sale

In the second quarter of 2019, NXP management, in reviewing its portfolio, concluded that certain activities (Voice and Audio Solutions (VAS)) no longer fit the NXP strategic portfolio and took actions that resulted in the assets meeting the held for sale criteria. On August 16, 2019, NXP reached a definitive agreement with Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co., Ltd. from China, under which it will acquire all of these assets for an amount of $165 million.

Shareholder tax on repurchased shares

Under Dutch tax law, the repurchase of a company’s shares by an entity in the Netherlands is a taxable event (unless exemptions apply). The tax on the repurchased shares is attributed to the shareholders, with NXP making the payment on the shareholders’ behalf. As such, the tax on the repurchased shares is accounted for within stockholders’ equity. At September 29, 2019, within other current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheet, an accrual of $127 million remained for this tax.


65 Restructuring

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

Our effective tax rate reflects the impact of tax incentives, non-deductible expenses, change in valuation allowance, a portion of our earnings being taxed in foreign jurisdictions at rates different than the Netherlands statutory tax rate, and the mix ofprovision for income and losses in various jurisdictions. Our effective tax ratetaxes for the first ninethree months of 20192022 was 21.4%of $114 million (14.8% effective tax rate) compared with an expenseto a provision from income taxes of 14.2% on a pre-tax profit$40 million (9.9% effective tax rate) for the first ninethree months of 2018.2021. The movementincrease in our effectivethe income tax rate reflects mainlyexpense was due to higher income before income taxes as a result of the decreaseimproved operational performance of the company which was partly offset by an increase in tax incentives ($152 million),also taking into account the increaseeffect of specific US tax law that became effective as from 2022. In addition to this, in the first three months of 2021 there was an income tax benefit due to changes in estimates of prior year adjustments ($19 million)positions and the increasedue to a net change in the change in valuation allowance ($32 million).allowance.

The Company benefits from income tax incentives in certain jurisdictions which provide that we pay reduced income taxes in those jurisdictions for a fixed period of time that varies depending on the jurisdiction. The predominant income tax holiday is expected to expire at the end of 2026. The impact of this tax holiday decreased foreign income taxes for the first quarter of 2022 by $3 million and decreased by $4 million and $5 million for the thirdfirst quarter of 2019 and the third quarter of 2018, respectively (YTD 2019: decrease of $8 million and YTD 2018: decrease of $15 million).2021. The benefit of this tax holiday on net income per share (diluted) was $0.01 for the thirdfirst quarter of 2019 (YTD 2019: $0.03)2022 and $0.02$0.01 for the thirdfirst quarter of 2018 (YTD 2018: $0.04).2021.

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

Financial assetsAssets and financial 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.


Other financial For derivatives (as part of other current assets and derivatives
For other financial assets and derivativesor accrued liabilities) the fair value is based upon significant other observable inputs depending on the nature of the other financial asset and derivative.

Notes hedges and Notes Embedded Conversion Derivative
At September 29, 2019, the Notes hedges and the Notes Embedded Conversion Derivative are measured at fair value using level 3 inputs. The instruments are not actively traded and are valued at the measurement date using an option pricing model that uses observable inputs for the share price of NXP’s common stock, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield and the term, in combination with a significant unobservable input for volatility. The volatility factor utilized at September 29, 2019 was 39.1% and at December 31, 2018 the volatility factor utilized was 34.8%. The change in the fair value of the Notes hedges and Notes Embedded Conversion Derivative was solely the gain and loss, respectively for each instrument that was recognized.

Debt
The fair value is estimated on the basis of observable inputs other than quoted market prices in active markets for identical liabilities for certain issues, or on the basis of discounted cash flow analyses. Accrued interest is included under accrued liabilities and not within the carrying amount or estimated fair value of debt.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis
We measure and record our non-marketable equity investments (non-marketable securities, and costequity method investments)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
13 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 April 3, 2022, the estimated fair value of current and non-current debt was $10.3 billion ($11.3 billion as of December 31, 2021). 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 April 3, 2022, the Company had purchase commitments of $3,925 million, 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.

Litigation

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.

Based on the most current information available to it and based on its best estimate, the Company also 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 procedures described above, the Company has an aggregate amount of $85$61 million accrued for potential and current legal proceedings pending as of September 29, 2019,April 3, 2022, compared to $123$65 million accrued at December 31, 2021 (without reduction for any related insurance reimbursements) at December 31, 2018.. The accruals are included in “Other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities”. As of September 29, 2019,April 3, 2022, the Company’s related balance related toof insurance reimbursements was $50$45 million (December 31, 2018: $652021: $46 million) and is included in “Other current assets” and “Other non-current assets”.
12



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, (including the fact that many of them are currently in preliminary stages), 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, 2019,April 3, 2022, 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 $122$63 million. Based upon our past experience with these matters, the Company would expect to receive additional insurance reimbursement of up to $49 million on certain of these claims that would partially offset the potential maximumaggregate exposure to loss in excess of up to $109 million.the amount accrued.

In addition, 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 Company is also defending a suit related to semiconductor operations that occurred prior to NXP’s separation from Philips. The multi-plaintiff Motorola lawsuits are pending in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, and the legacy NXP suit is pending in Santa Fe, New Mexico.Illinois. These claims allege a link between working in semiconductor manufacturing clean room facilities and birth defects in 2417 individuals. The Motorola suits allege exposures between 19651981 and 2006. 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. In the Motorola suits, aA 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.

The increase in revenue is attributed to the combination of ongoing demand, across NXP’s Automotive, Industrial IoT, Mobile, and the Communications Infrastructure & Other end-markets, as well as the effects of increased input costs from NXP suppliers which were passed along to our end customers in the form of higher average selling prices.

From an end market perspective, within the automotive end-market the year-on-year growth was driven by strong demand across the entire automotive product portfolio - both our distribution partners and OEM customers - in support of the secular shift of electrification, advanced driver safety and assistance, and driver connectivity systems. Growth within the Industrial & IoT market reflects the successful continuation of adoption of our complete secure, connected edge processing solutions which leverage our broad processor portfolio, complimented by connectivity, analog attach and security products. Growth within the Mobile end market was due to ongoing adoption of our secure embed transaction solutions across all regions primarily in the Greater China including Asia Pacific regions, as well as early adoption of the company’s new secure ultra-wide-band (“UWB”) solutions.

When aggregating all end-markets together, and reviewing sales channel performance, business transacted through NXP's third party distribution partnerswas $1,680 million, an increase of 14.4%. Sales to NXP's direct OEM and EMS customers was $1,412 million, an increase of 32.7% versus the first quarter of 2021.

From a geographic perspective, revenue increased across all regions.

Revenue from the Automotive end-market was $1,557 million, an increase of $328 million or 26.7% year-on-year. Within Automotive, customers are focused on the key functional pillars of safety, electrification and improved driver comfort to accelerate competitive differentiation. These broad functional areas are fundamentally enabled by the secular adoption of new and increased levels of semiconductor content, which is layered on top of a strong base of existing electronic content in modern automobiles. Furthermore, the increase in Automotive revenue during the first quarter of 2022 can be attributed to the ongoing demand for our automotive products.

Revenue from the Industrial & IoT end-market was $682 million, an increase of $111 million or 19.4% year-on-year. The Industrial & IoT market is driven by the secular trend of multi-market OEMs seeking to enable secure, connected, high performance processing solutions at the edge of the network, whether it is in factory automation, smart building/smart home or the exploding plethora of connected IoT devices. The innovation in this market is being driven by thousands of relatively smaller customers, which NXP effectively services through its extended global distribution channel. During the first quarter of 2022, the year-on-year increase was driven by the continued growth in demand of NXP’s high performance industrial application processors, hybrid multi-core crossover processors, and low-power embedded microcontrollers, in addition to strong demand for the company’s analog high-speed interface devices and system security solutions.

Revenue from the Mobile end-market was $401 million with an increase of $55 million or 15.9% year-on-year. The year-on-year increase was driven by the continued strong adoption of secure mobile wallet solutions and increased demand for UWB Mobile, which was offset by declines in advanced power systems driven by load switch demand decline.Our mobile customers are primarily serviced through our global distribution channels.

Revenue in the Communication Infrastructure and Other end-market was $496 million, an increase of $75 million or 17.8% year-on-year. The Communication Infrastructure and Other end-market is an amalgamation of three separate product portfolios, which service multiple markets, including cellular base stations; the network edge equipment, and the secure access, transit and government sponsored identification market.
16


The year-on-year growth in the first quarter of 2022 was driven by a combination of high performance RF Power amplifier products for cellular base-station applications, broad based demand for secure access and identification solutions, and multi-core processors. Offsetting these positive growth trends were declines in demand for the company’s smart antennae products used in the Android mobile handset market

Their share of non-controlling interests amounted to a profit of $20 million in the first nine months of 2019, compared to $37 million in the first nine months of 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We derive our liquidity and capital resources primarily from our cash flows from operations. We continue to generate strong positive operating cash flows. At the end of the thirdfirst quarter of 2019,2022, our cash balance was $3,537$2,683 million, an increasea decrease of $748$147 million compared to December 31, 2018.2021.

We currently use cash to fund operations, meet working capital requirements, for capital expenditures and for potential common stock repurchases, dividends and strategic investments. Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our current available sources of funds (including cash and cash equivalents, RCF Agreement, plus anticipated cash generated from operations) will be adequate to finance our operations, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and potential dividends for at least the next twelve months. Our capital expenditures were $388$280 million in the first ninethree months of 2019,2022, compared to $441$150 million in the first ninethree months of 2018.2021. During the ninethree month period ended September 29, 2019,April 3, 2022, we repurchased $1,369$552 million, or 15.22.7 million shares of our common stock pursuant to our share buyback programprograms at a weighted average price of $90.16$207.94 per share.

Our total debt amounted to $8,505$10,573 million as of Q3 2019,Q1 2022, an increase of $1,151$1 million compared to December 31, 20182021 ($7,35410,572 million). The fixed rate 1% convertible debt of $1,150 million is due December 2019.

At September 29, 2019,April 3, 2022, our cash balance was $3,537$2,683 million of which $169$185 million was held by SSMC, our consolidated joint venture company with TSMC. Under the terms of our joint venture agreement with TSMC, a portion of this cash can be distributed by way of a dividend to us, but 38.8% of the dividend will be paid to our joint venture partner. No dividend has been declared by SSMC in the first nine months of 2019 (during the second quarter of 2018: $139 million).

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (Certifying Officers), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) on September 29, 2019.April 3, 2022.

Ongoing Remediation of Previously Identified Material Weakness

As previously described in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, we are implementing measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the previously disclosed material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented, and operating effectively. In addition to those actions which are ongoing, we have been designing and continue to implement certain compensating controls, which allow for an additional layer of mitigation as we design, implement, and ensure effective operation of the measures addressing the material weakness.We expect these changes to materially improve our internal controls.

The weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. Management believes the remediation of this material weakness will be completed prior to the end of fiscal 2022. However, there is no assurance as to when such remediation will be completed.

Item 1A.   Risk Factors

ThereOur global business operations expose us to international business risks that could adversely affect our business

If any of the following international business risks were to materialize or become worse, they could have been noa material changesadverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations:

negative economic developments in economies around the world and the instability of governments and international trade arrangements, such as the increase of barriers to international trade including the imposition of tariffs on imports by the United States and China, the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union, enhanced export controls on certain products and sanctions on certain industry sectors and parties in Russia and the sovereign debt crisis in certain European countries;
social and political instability in a number of countries around the world, including continued hostilities and civil unrest in the Middle East and the Ukraine. The instability may have a negative effect on our business, financial condition and operations via our customers and global supply chain and volatility in energy prices and the financial markets;
potential terrorist attacks;
epidemics and pandemics, such as the coronavirus outbreak, which may adversely affect our workforce, as well as our suppliers and customers;
adverse changes in government policies, especially those affecting trade and investment;
volatility in foreign currency exchange rates, in particular with respect to the U.S. dollar, and transfer restrictions, in particular in China; and
threats that our operations or property could be subject to nationalization and expropriation.

In addition, Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine has led to sanctions, export controls and other penalties being levied by the United States, European Union and other countries against Russia, Belarus, the Crimea Region of Ukraine, the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic, and the so-called Luhansk People’s Republic. Additional potential sanctions and penalties have also been proposed and/or threatened. Russian military actions and the resulting sanctions could adversely affect the global economy and financial markets. Any Russian response could also disrupt commercial and financial transactions. Further, conflict between Ukraine and Russia could adversely impact the global supply chain, disrupt our operations, or negatively impact the demand for our products in our primary end markets. Any such disruption could result in an adverse impact to our financial results.
