NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

Note 1:    Background and Basis of Presentation

ON Semiconductor Corporation, together with its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries (“ON Semiconductor” or the “Company”), uses a thirteen-week fiscal quarter accounting period for the first three fiscal quarters of each year, with the second quarter of 2018 having ended on June 29, 2018, and each fiscal year ending on December 31. The quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017 each contained 91 days. The six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017 contained 180 and 181 days, respectively. During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, the Company changed the name of one of its operating and reporting segments from Image Sensor Group to Intelligent Sensing Group. As of June 29, 2018, the Company was organized into the following three operating and reporting segments: the Power Solutions Group, theAnalog Solutions Group and the Intelligent Sensing Group. Additional details on the Company’s operating and reporting segments are included in Note 2: “Revenue and Segment Information.”

The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of and for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for unaudited interim financial information. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the interim information includes all adjustments, which includes normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The footnote disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, which was filed with the SEC on February 21, 2018 (the “2017 Form10-K”). Financial results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

Adoption of New Revenue Standard

On January 1, 2018, as required, the Company adopted ASU No.2014-09 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU2014-09”), ASU No.2015-14 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU2015-14”), ASU No.2016-08 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (“ASU2016-08”), ASU No.2016-10 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU2016-10”), ASU No.2016-12 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU2016-12”) and ASU No.2016-20 - Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU2016-20”) (collectively “the New Revenue Standard”). To conform to the New Revenue Standard, the Company modified its revenue recognition policy as described below.

Change in Accounting Policy

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the New Revenue Standard using the modified retrospective method, applying the guidance to all open contracts and recognized the cumulative effect adjustment of $2.1 million to retained earnings and accrued expenses as of that date. The comparative financial information has not been restated and continues to be presented under the accounting standards in effect for the respective periods. The Company applied the practical expedient and has not disclosed the revenues allocated to future shipments of partially completed contracts.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenues continue to be recognized following the transfer of control of the products to the customer, which typically occurs upon shipment or delivery depending on the terms of the underlying contracts. Under the New Revenue Standard, revenues from certain product development agreements, which were previously deferred as delivered, are now recognized over time.

During the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018, revenues increased by $1.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively, due to the impact of the adoption of the New Revenue Standard.

Revenue Recognition Policy

In anticipation of the adoption of the New Revenue Standard, during the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company developed its internal systems, processes and controls to enable it to make the estimates required by the New Revenue Standard on sales to its distributors and was able to reliably estimate upfront the effects of returns and allowances and record revenues at the time of shipments to these distributors. Prior to this, the Company recognized revenues from distributors under the sell-through method as it did not have the ability to estimate the effects of returns and allowances. As a result of this change, the Company recognized an additional $155.1 million in revenues during the first quarter of 2017, which resulted in an increase of $59.0 million to income before income taxes.

The Company generates revenue from sales of its semiconductor products to OEMs, electronic manufacturing service providers and distributors. The Company also generates revenue, to a much lesser extent, from product development agreements and manufacturing services provided to customers. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in an amount reflecting the consideration to which it expects to be entitled. For sales agreements, the Company has identified the promise to transfer products, each of which is distinct, to be the performance obligation. For product development agreements, the Company has identified the completion of a service defined in the agreement to be the performance obligation. The Company applies a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized: (1) identifying the contract with a customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at the time control of the products transfers to the customer.

Sales agreements with customers are renewable periodically and contain terms and conditions with respect to payment, delivery, warranty and supply, but typically do not require minimum purchase commitments. In the absence of a sales agreement, the Company’s standard terms and conditions apply. The Company considers the customer purchase orders, governed by sales agreements or the Company’s standard terms and conditions, to be the contract with the customer. The Company evaluates certain factors including the customer’s ability to pay (or credit risk).

Most of the Company’s OEM customers negotiate pricing terms on an annual basis, while the electronic manufacturer service providers and distributors generally negotiate pricing terms on a quarterly basis. Pricing terms on product development agreements are negotiated at the beginning of a project. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on its relative stand-alone selling price.

In determining the transaction price, the Company evaluates whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the net consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. The Company’s OEM customers do not have the right to return products, other than pursuant to the provisions of the Company’s standard warranty. Sales to distributors, however, are typically made pursuant to agreements that provide return rights with respect to discontinued or slow-moving products, referred to as stock rotation. Sales to distributors can also be subject to price adjustment on certain products, primarily for distributors with ship and credit rights. Although payment terms vary, most distributor agreements require payment within 30 days. In addition, the Company offers cash discounts to certain customers for payments received within an agreed upon time, generally 10 days after shipment.

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue from sales agreements upon transferring control of a product to the customer. This typically occurs when products are shipped or delivered, depending on the delivery terms, or when products that are consigned at customer locations are consumed. The Company recognizes revenue from product development agreements over time based on thecost-to-cost method. Revenues recognized during the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018, for sales agreements was $1,447.9 million and $2,820.7 million, respectively, and for product development agreements was $8.0 million and $12.8 million, respectively. Sales returns and allowances are estimated based on historical experience. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, ship and credit claims and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related revenues are recognized, and are netted against revenues. For returns, the Company recognizes a related asset for the right to recover returned products with a corresponding reduction to cost of goods sold. The Company reviews warranty and related claims activity and records provisions, as necessary. The Company records a reserve for cash discounts as a reduction to accounts receivable and a reduction to revenues, based on the experience with each customer.

Frequently, the Company receives orders with multiple delivery dates that may extend across reporting periods. Since each delivery constitutes a performance obligation, the Company allocates the transaction price of the contract to each performance obligation based on the stand-alone selling price of the products. The Company invoices the customer for each delivery upon shipment and recognizes revenue in accordance with delivery terms. As scheduled delivery dates are within one year, revenue allocated to future shipments of partially completed contracts are not disclosed.

The Company has elected to record freight and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer as a fulfillment cost and include it in cost of revenues. Taxes assessed by government authorities on revenue-producing transactions, including value-added and excise taxes, are presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

The Company generally warrants that products sold to its customers will, at the time of shipment, be free from defects in workmanship and materials and conform to specifications. The Company’s standard warranty extends for a period of two years from the date of delivery, except in the case of image sensor products, which are warrantied for one year from the date of delivery. At the time revenue is recognized, the Company establishes an accrual for estimated warranty expenses associated with its sales and records them as a component of the cost of revenues.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and bases its estimates on experience, current and expected future conditions, third-party evaluations and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates have been used by management in conjunction with the following: (i) estimates of future payouts for customer incentives and estimates of amounts subject to allowances, returns and warranties; (ii) measurement of valuation allowances relating to inventories and trade receivables; (iii) future cash flows used to assess and test for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets, if applicable; (iv) assumptions surrounding future pension obligations; (v) fair values of share-based compensation and of financial instruments (including derivative financial instruments); (vi) measurement of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets, evaluations of uncertain tax positions and the impact of U.S. tax reform; and (vii) estimates and assumptions used in connection with business combinations. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in the consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Foreign Currencies

Most of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries conduct business primarily in U.S. dollars and, as a result, utilize the dollar as their functional currency. For the remeasurement of financial statements of these subsidiaries, assets and liabilities in foreign currencies that are receivable or payable in cash are remeasured at current exchange rates, while inventories and othernon-monetary assets in foreign currencies are remeasured at historical rates. Gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of such financial statements are included in the operating results, as are gains and losses incurred on foreign currency transactions.

Historically, the majority of the Company’s Japanese subsidiaries utilized Japanese Yen as their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at the average rates in effect for the period. The related translation gains and losses are included in other comprehensive income or loss within the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. As a result of an analysis which took into account the economic indicators of these subsidiaries from a long-term perspective, the Company changed the functional currency for some of these subsidiaries from Japanese Yen to U.S. dollars effective as of January 1, 2018.

Note 2:    Revenue and Segment Information

The Company is organized into three operating and reporting segments consisting of the Power Solutions Group, the Analog Solutions Group and the Intelligent Sensing Group. Each of the Company’s major product lines has been examined and assigned to a reporting segment based on the Company’s operating strategy. Because many products are sold into differentend-markets, the total revenues reported for a segment is not indicative of actual sales in theend-market associated with that segment, but rather is the sum of the revenues from the product lines assigned to that segment. These segments represent the Company’s view of the business and as such are used to evaluate progress of major initiatives and allocation of resources.

Revenues and gross profit for the Company’s operating and reporting segments were as follows (in millions):

	Power Solutions Group		Analog Solutions Group		Intelligent Sensing Group		Total
For the quarter ended June 29, 2018:
Revenues from external customers	$	748.2	$	513.2	$	194.5	$	1,455.9

Note 3: Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASUs Adopted:

New Revenue Standard

The Company adopted the New Revenue Standard on a modified retrospective basis on January 1, 2018. The cumulative-effect adjustment related to the timing of revenue recognition on certain product development agreements recorded to beginning retained earnings as of January 1, 2018, was $2.1 million. The Company expects the ongoing impact of the New Revenue Standard to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements.

ASUNo. 2017-09 - Scope of Modification Accounting (“ASU2017-09”)

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2017-09 to reduce diversity in practice and provide clarity regarding existing guidance in ASC 718, “Stock Compensation.” The amendments clarify that an entity should apply modification accounting in response to a change in the terms and conditions of an entity’s share-based payment awards unless three newly specified criteria are met. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU2017-09 during the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ASU No2017-07 - Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (“ASU2017-07”)

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU2017-07 primarily to improve the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The guidance will require the net benefit cost to be split in the income statement. The service cost component will be included in operating income. The other components, including amortization of past service costs or credits and settlement and curtailments amounts, will be reported separately outside of operating income. The amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted ASU2017-07 during the first quarter of 2018, applying the standard retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the current period or prior period consolidated financial statements. See Note 6: “Balance Sheet Information” for further information on the adoption of ASU2017-07.

ASUNo. 2016-18 - Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU2016-18”)

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-18, which requires entities to include in their cash and cash-equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows those amounts that are deemed to be restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. The ASU does not define the terms “restricted cash” and “restricted cash equivalents.” The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU2016-18 during the first quarter of 2018, applying the standard retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the current period or prior period consolidated financial statements. See Note 15: “Supplemental Disclosures” for further information on the adoption of ASU2016-18.

ASUNo. 2016-16 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory (“ASU2016-16”)

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-16, which eliminates the exception for all intra-entity sales of assets other than inventory. As a result, a reporting entity would recognize the tax expense from the sale of the asset in the seller’s tax jurisdiction when the transfer occurs, even though thepre-tax effects of that transaction are eliminated in consolidation. Any deferred tax asset that arises in the buyer’s jurisdiction would also be recognized at the time of the transfer. The new guidance does not apply to intra-entity transfers of inventory. The income tax consequences from the sale of inventory from one member of a consolidated entity to another will continue to be deferred until the inventory is sold to a third party. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU2016-16 during the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ASU No.2016-15 - Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (“ASU2016-15”)

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-15, which changes how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU2016-15 during the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ASUs Pending Adoption:

ASUNo. 2017-12 - Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU2017-12”)

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASUNo. 2017-12 to better align hedge accounting with risk management strategies, and as a result, more hedging strategies will be eligible for hedge accounting. Public business entities will have until the end of the first quarter in which a hedge is designated to perform an initial assessment of a hedge’s effectiveness. After initial qualification, the new guidance permits a qualitative effectiveness assessment for certain hedges instead of a quantitative test if the company can reasonably support an expectation of high effectiveness throughout the term of the hedge. An initial quantitative test to establish that the hedge relationship is highly effective is still required. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU2017-12 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

ASU No.2016-02 - Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU2016-02”)

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-02, which amends the accounting treatment for leases. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) and lessors (for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees and lessors may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects the adoption of this standard will result in a significant component of the Company’s future minimum lease obligations as disclosed in Note 10: “Commitments and Contingencies” to be included on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company is currently reviewing its service agreements and other arrangements to evaluate whether they meet the definition of a lease under ASU2016-02 and what additional impact that the adoption of ASU2016-02 may have on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 4:    Acquisitions, Divestitures and Licensing Transactions

Acquisition

On May 8, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of SensL Technologies Ltd. (“SensL”), a company specializing in Silicon Photomultipliers, Single Photon Avalanche Diode and LiDAR sensing products for the automotive, medical, industrial and consumer markets, for $71.4 million in cash, subject to certain adjustments. As a result of the acquisition, SensL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The purchase price was funded with cash on hand. This acquisition positions the Company to extend its products in automotive sensing applications for ADAS and autonomous driving by adding LiDAR capabilities to the Company’s existing capabilities in imaging and radar.

The following table presents the provisional allocation of the purchase price of SensL for the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values (in millions):

	Initial Estimate
Current assets (including cash and cash equivalents of $0.7 million)	$	4.2
Property, plant and equipment and othernon-current assets		1.8
Goodwill		15.2
Intangible assets (excluding IPRD)		30.4
IPRD		25.0
Total assets acquired		76.6
Current liabilities		0.7
Othernon-current liabilities		4.5
Total liabilities assumed		5.2
Net assets acquired/purchase price	$	71.4

Acquired intangible assets of $30.4 million include developed technology of $29.0 million (which are estimated to have a six year weighted-average useful life). The total weighted average amortization period for the acquired intangibles is six years.

IPRD assets are amortized over the estimated useful life of the assets upon successful completion of the related projects. The value assigned to IPRD was determined by estimating the net cash flows from the projects when completed and discounting the net cash flows to their present value using a discount rate of 29.5%. The cash flows from IPRD’s significant products are expected to commence in the second half of 2018.

ON SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued

(unaudited)

The acquisition produced $15.2 million of goodwill, which was allocated to the Intelligent Sensing Group. The goodwill is attributable to a combination of SensL’s assembled workforce, expectations regarding a more meaningful engagement by the customers due to the scale of the combined company and other product and operating synergies. Goodwill will not be amortized but instead tested for impairment at least annually (more frequently if certain indicators are present). Goodwill arising from the SensL acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.

The initial estimated purchase price allocation is subject to change as the Company finalizes its determination relating to the valuation of net assets and finalizes key assumptions, approaches and judgments with respect to intangible assets acquired from SensL. Accordingly, future adjustments may impact the initial estimated amount of goodwill and other allocated amounts represented in the table above.

Divestiture

On June 25, 2018, the Company divested the transient voltage suppressing diodes business it acquired from Fairchild to TSC America, Inc. for $5.6 million in cash and recorded a gain of $4.6 million after writing off the carrying values of the assets and liabilities disposed. This gain has been presented as “Gain on divestiture of business” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018.

Licensing Transactions

During 2016 and 2017, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Huaian Imaging Device Manufacturer Corporation (“HIDM”) pursuant to which the Company received $52.5 million in cash in 2017 and provided perpetual,non-exclusive licenses relating to certain technologies to HIDM. Of this amount, $10.0 million was recorded as deferred licensing income to be recognized in the period in which certain qualification requirements of the technologies are achieved (or refunded to HIDM, if such qualification did not occur by June 21, 2018). During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, the Company achieved such qualification requirements for the technologies transferred and recognized $10.0 million as licensing income.

On November 29, 2017, the Company and QST Co. Ltd (“QST”) entered into an IP license and technology transfer agreement (“IP Agreement”) to grant QST patent licenses and IP rights to certain of the Company’s technologies. Pursuant to the IP Agreement, QST receives perpetual, worldwide, nonexclusive and nontransferable patents licenses and IP rights upon the payment of license fees of $13.0 million and other fees of $8.5 million in its entirety. Such amounts were paid by QST between the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first and second quarters of 2018. As a result, the Company has recognized licensing income of $18.0 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2018. The remaining amounts were previously recognized as licensing income during 2017 and the quarter ended March 30, 2018.

Net balance as of June 29, 2018	$	928.8

During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $3.3 million, which represented the entire goodwill assigned to a reporting unit within the Power Solutions Group as a result of the licensing transaction with QST. See Note 4: “Acquisitions, Divestitures and Licensing Transactions” for more information.

Goodwill is tested for impairment annually on the first day of the fourth quarter or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances (each, a “triggering event”) would more likely than not reduce the carrying value of goodwill below its fair value. Management did not identify any triggering events through June 29, 2018 that would require an interim impairment analysis.

Defined Benefit Plans

The Company maintains defined benefit plans for certain of its foreign subsidiaries. The Company recognizes the aggregate amount of all overfunded plans as assets and the aggregate amount of all underfunded plans as liabilities in its financial statements. As of June 29, 2018, the total accrued pension liability for underfunded plans was $110.4 million, of which the current portion of $0.3 million was classified as accrued expenses. As of December 31, 2017, the total accrued pension liability for underfunded plans was $109.3 million, of which the current portion of $0.2 million was classified as accrued expenses.

The components of the Company’s net periodic pension expense are as follows (in millions):

With the retrospective adoption of ASU2017-07, the service cost component is included in operating income while the other components, including the interest cost and the expected return on plan assets, are reported separately outside of operating income. The Company utilized the practical expedient to estimate the amounts for the comparative periods using the information previously disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements in the 2017 Form10-K. The service cost is allocated between the cost of revenues, research and development, selling and marketing and general and administrative line items, while the other components are included in other expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement

On May 31, 2018, the Company and certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), entered into the Fourth Amendment (the “Fourth Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 15, 2016, as amended by the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2016, the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2017, and the Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 30, 2017 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”), with the several lenders party thereto and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as the administrative agent (the “Agent”).

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be incurred in U.S. Dollars, Euros, Pounds Sterling, Japanese Yen or any other currency approved by the Agent and the lenders under a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), subject to certain qualifications described in the Credit Agreement. Regardless of currency, all borrowings under the Credit Agreement, may, at the Company’s option, be incurred as either eurocurrency loans (“Eurocurrency Loans”) or alternate base rate loans (“ABR Loans”).

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, for any interest period ending after the date of the Fourth Amendment, Eurocurrency Loans will accrue interest at (i) a base rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus (ii) an applicable margin equal to (x) 1.25% with respect to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (with step-downs and step-ups as set forth in the Credit Agreement) or (y) 1.75% with respect to borrowings under a $2.4 billion term loan “B” facility (the “Term Loan “B” Facility”).

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, ABR Loans will accrue interest at (i) a base rate per annum equal to the highest of (x) the Federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (y) the prime commercial lending rate announced by the Agent from time to time as its prime lending rate and (z) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for a one month interest period (or if such day is not a business day, the immediately preceding business day) (determined after giving effect to any applicable “floor”) plus 1.00%; provided that, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), subject to the interest rate floors set forth in the Credit Agreement, plus (ii) an applicable margin equal to (x) 0.25% with respect to borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (with step downs andstep-ups as set forth in the Credit Agreement) or (y) 0.75% with respect to borrowings under the Term Loan “B” Facility.

The obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Guarantors and collateralized by a pledge of substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, including a pledge of the equity interests in certain of the Company’s domestic and first tier foreign subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. The obligations under the Credit Agreement are also collateralized by mortgage on certain real property assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement includes financial maintenance covenants, including, among others, a maximum total net leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. It also contains other customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. The Company was in compliance with its covenants as of June 29, 2018.

Debt Refinancing and Prepayment

The Company incurred third party, legal and other fees of $1.1 million related to the Fourth Amendment. The Company performed an analysis and recorded a debt extinguishment charge of $2.6 million, which included awrite-off of $1.5 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs and $1.1 million in third party fees, as previously mentioned.

During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, the Company prepaid $50.0 million of borrowings under the Term Loan “B” Facility and expensed $1.4 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs attributed to the partialpay-down, as loss on debt refinancing and prepayment.

1.00% Notes due 2020

On June 8, 2015, the Company completed a private placement of $690.0 million of its 1.00% Notes to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The 1.00% Notes are governed by an indenture between the Company, as the issuer, the guarantors named therein and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “1.00% Indenture”). The 1.00% Notes are convertible by holders into cash and shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 54.0643 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (subject to adjustment in certain events), which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $18.50 per share of common stock. The Company will settle conversion of all 1.00% Notes validly tendered for conversion in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock or a combination of cash and shares to be determined by the Company. Holders may convert their 1.00% Notes only under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2015, if the last reported sale price of common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the conversion price on each applicable trading day; (ii) during the fivebusiness-day period immediately following any five consecutivetrading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of 1.00% Notes for each day of such period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate; (iii) upon occurrence of the specified transactions described in the 1.00% Indenture; or (iv) on and after September 1, 2020 (each considered a “trigger”). Upon conversion of the 1.00% Notes, the Company will deliver cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock, at the Company’s election.

As previously experienced during the quarter ended March 30, 2018, the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on June 30, 2018 was greater than or equal to $24.05 (130% of the conversion price) on each applicable trading day. As a result, the Company recorded the outstanding balance, net of discount, of $630.7 million of the 1.00% Notes as a current portion of long-term debt as of June 29, 2018, and as required by the 1.00% Indenture, gave notice to the trustee, the conversion agent and each holder on June 29, 2018 that each holder has the right to surrender any portion of its 1.00% Notes (in minimum denominations of $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple thereof) for conversion during the calendar quarter ending September 30, 2018 (and only during such calendar quarter unless the trigger remains) pursuant to the terms of the 1.00% Indenture.

Note Payable to SMBC

On January 31, 2013, the Company amended and restated its seven-year,non-collateralized loan obligation with SANYO Electric. In connection with the amendment and restatement of the loan agreement, SANYO Electric assigned all of its rights under the loan agreement to SMBC. The loan had an original principal amount of approximately $377.5 million and had a principal balance of $122.7 million as of December 31, 2017. The entire balance was repaid on the due date of January 2, 2018.

Note 8: Earnings Per Share and Equity

Earnings Per Share

Calculations of net income per common share attributable to ON Semiconductor are as follows (in millions, except per share data):

	Quarters Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 29, 2018		June 30, 2017		June 29, 2018		June 30, 2017
Net income attributable to ON Semiconductor Corporation	$	155.3	$	93.9	$	294.9	$	172.1
Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding		427.0		420.8		426.5		420.4
Dilutive effect of share-based awards		4.6		5.1		5.2		5.6
Dilutive effect of convertible notes		12.7		—		12.7		—
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding		444.3		425.9		444.4		426.0
Net income per common share attributable to ON Semiconductor Corporation:
Basic	$	0.36	$	0.22	$	0.69	$	0.41
Diluted	$	0.35	$	0.22	$	0.66	$	0.40

Basic income per common share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ON Semiconductor Corporation by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

The number of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options and assumed issuance of shares relating to RSUs is calculated by applying the treasury stock method. Share-based awards whose impact is considered to be anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation. The excluded number of anti-dilutive shares subject to share-based awards was zero for the quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017 and 0.3 million and 0.5 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.

The dilutive impact related to the Company’s 1.00% Notes and 1.625% Notes is determined in accordance with the net share settlement requirements prescribed by ASC Topic 260,Earnings Per Share. Under the net share settlement calculation, the Company’s convertible notes are assumed to be convertible into cash up to the par value, with the excess of par value being

22

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - Continued

(unaudited)

convertible into common stock. A dilutive effect occurs when the stock price exceeds the conversion price for each series of the convertible notes. During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, the average share price exceeded the conversion price for both the 1.00% Notes and the 1.625% Notes and the impact of the excess over par value is included in calculating the dilutive effect of the convertible notes. In periods when the share price is lower than the conversion price, the impact is anti-dilutive and therefore has no impact on the Company’s earnings per share calculations. Additionally, if the average price of the Company’s common stock exceeds $25.96 per share, with respect to the 1.00% Notes, or $30.70 per share, with respect to the 1.625% Notes, for a reporting period, the Company will also include the effect of the additional potential shares, using the treasury stock method, that may be issued related to the warrants that were issued concurrently with the issuance of the 1.00% Notes and 1.625% Notes, respectively. Prior to conversion, the convertible note hedges are not considered for purposes of the earnings per share calculations, as their effect would be anti-dilutive. Upon conversion, the convertible note hedges are expected to offset the dilutive effect of the 1.00% Notes and 1.625% Notes, respectively, when the stock price is above $18.50 per share, with respect to the 1.00% Notes, and $20.72 per share, with respect to the 1.625% Notes.

Equity

Share Repurchase Program

During the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018, the Company repurchased common stock worth approximately $40.0 million under the share repurchase program. There were zero and $25.0 million of repurchases of the Company’s common stock under the share repurchase program during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017.

Under the share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase up to $1.0 billion (exclusive of fees, commissions and other expenses) of the Company’s common stock over a period of four years from December 1, 2014, subject to certain contingencies. The Company may repurchase its common stock from time to time in privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance withRule 10b5-1 andRule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or by any combination of such methods or other methods. The timing of any repurchases and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the Company’s stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, restrictions under the Company’s debt obligations and other market and economic conditions. The share repurchase program does not require the Company to purchase any particular amount of common stock and is subject to the board’s discretion. As of June 29, 2018, $563.2 million remained of the total authorized amount to repurchase common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program.

Information relating to the Company’s share repurchase program during the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018, is as follows (in millions, except per share data):

	Quarter Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 29, 2018		June 29, 2018

Shares for Restricted Stock Units Tax Withholding

Treasury stock is recorded at cost and is presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Shares with a fair market value equal to the applicable statutory minimum amount of the employee withholding taxes due are withheld by the Company upon the vesting of RSUs to pay the applicable statutory minimum amount of employee withholding taxes and are considered common stock repurchases. The Company then pays the applicable statutory minimum amount of withholding taxes in cash. The amount remitted for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018 was $1.1 million and $19.9 million, respectively, for which the Company withheld approximately 0.1 million and 0.8 million shares of common stock, respectively, that were underlying the RSUs that vested. The amount remitted for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2017 was $0.6 million and $13.6 million, respectively, for which the Company withheld approximately 0.1 million and 0.9 million shares of common stock, respectively, that were underlying the RSUs that vested. None of these shares had been reissued or retired as of June 29, 2018, but may be reissued or retired by the Company at a later date. These repurchases do not count against the Company’s share repurchase program.

Non-Controlling Interest

The Company’s entity, which operates assembly and test operations in Leshan, China is owned by Leshan-Phoenix Semiconductor Company Limited, a joint venture company in which the Company owns a majority of the outstanding equity interests (“Leshan”). The Company owns 80% of the outstanding equity interests in Leshan and its investment in Leshan has been consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.

At December 31, 2017, thenon-controlling interest balance was $22.2 million. This balance increased to $24.1 million as of June 29, 2018, resulting from thenon-controlling interest’s $1.9 million share of the earnings for the six months ended June 29, 2018.

Subsequent to the third closing date of Aizu Fujitsu Semiconductor Manufacturing Limited (“AFSM”), the Company will consolidate the results of AFSM and the non-controlling interest held by the minority shareholder will be initially recognized at fair value. See Note 11: “Fair Value Measurements” for further information about the investment in AFSM.

Environmental Contingencies

The Company’s headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona are located on property that is a “Superfund” site, which is a property listed on the National Priorities List and subject toclean-up activities under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). Motorola and Freescale (acquired by NXP Semiconductors N.V.) have been involved in the cleanup ofon-site solvent contaminated soil and groundwater andoff-site contaminated groundwater pursuant to consent decrees with the State of Arizona. As part of the Company’s separation from Motorola in 1999, Motorola retained responsibility for this contamination, and Motorola and Freescale have agreed to indemnify the Company with respect to remediation costs and other costs or liabilities related to this matter.

The Company’s formerfront-end manufacturing location in Aizu, Japan is located on property where soil and ground water contamination was detected. The Company believes that the contamination originally occurred during a time when the facility was operated by a prior owner. The Company worked with local authorities to implement a remediation plan and has completed remaining remediation. The majority of the cost of remediation was covered by insurance. Any costs to the Company in connection with this matter have not been, and, based on the information available, are not expected to be, material.

The Company’s manufacturing facility in the Czech Republic has ongoing remediation projects to respond to releases of hazardous substances that occurred during the years that this facility was operated by government-owned entities. The remediation projects consist primarily of monitoring groundwater wells locatedon-site andoff-site with additional action plans developed to respond in the event activity levels are exceeded. The government of the Czech Republic has agreed to indemnify the Company and its respective subsidiaries, subject to specified limitations, for remediation costs associated with this historical contamination. Any costs to the Company in connection with this matter have not been, and, based on the information available, are not expected to be, material.

The Company’s design center in East Greenwich, Rhode Island is located on property that has localized soil contamination. In connection with the purchase of the facility, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Covenant Not to Sue with the State of Rhode Island. This agreement requires that remedial actions be undertaken and a quarterly groundwater monitoring program be initiated by the former owners of the property. Any costs to the Company in connection with this matter have not been, and, based on the information available, are not expected to be, material.

As a result of the acquisition of AMIS in 2008, the Company is a “primary responsible party” to an environmental remediation and cleanup at AMIS’s former corporate headquarters in Santa Clara, California. Costs incurred by AMIS include implementation of theclean-up plan, operations and maintenance of remediation systems, and other project management costs. However, AMIS’s former parent company, a subsidiary of Nippon Mining, contractually agreed to indemnify AMIS and the Company for any obligations relating to environmental remediation and cleanup at this location. Any costs to the Company in connection with this matter have not been, and, based on the information available, are not expected to be, material.

Through its acquisition of Fairchild, the Company acquired a facility in South Portland, Maine. This facility has ongoing environmental remediation projects to respond to certain releases of hazardous substances that occurred prior to the leveraged recapitalization of Fairchild from its former parent company, National Semiconductor Corporation, which is now owned by Texas Instruments, Inc. Although the Company may incur certain liabilities with respect to these remediation projects, pursuant to the asset purchase agreement entered into in connection with the Fairchild recapitalization, National Semiconductor Corporation agreed to indemnify Fairchild, without limitation and for an indefinite period of time, for all future costs related to these projects. Under a 1999 asset purchase agreement pursuant to which Fairchild purchased the power device business of Samsung, Samsung agreed to indemnify Fairchild in an amount up to $150.0 million for remediation costs and other liabilities related to historical contamination at Samsung’s Bucheon, South Korea operations. Any costs to the Company in connection with this matter have not been, and, based on the information available, are not expected to be, material.

Under a 2001 asset purchase agreement pursuant to which Fairchild purchased a manufacturing facility in Mountain Top, Pennsylvania, Intersil Corp. (acquired by Renesas Electronics Corporation) agreed to indemnify Fairchild for remediation costs and other liabilities related to historical contamination at the facility. Any costs to the Company incurred to respond to the above conditions and projects have not been, and are not expected to be, material, and any future payments the Company makes in connection with such liabilities are not expected to be material.

The Company was notified by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) that it has been identified as a “potentially responsible party” (“PRP”) under CERCLA in the Chemetco Superfund matter. Chemetco, a defunct reclamation services supplier that operated in Illinois at what is now a Superfund site, has performed reclamation services for the Company in the past. The EPA is pursuing Chemetco customers for contribution to the site cleanup activities. The Company has joined a PRP group which is cooperating with the EPA in the evaluation and funding of the cleanup. Any costs to the Company in connection with this matter have not been, and, based on the information available, are not expected to be, material.

Financing Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company provides standby letters of credit or other guarantee instruments to certain parties initiated by either the Company or its subsidiaries, as required for transactions such as, but not limited to, material purchase commitments, agreements to mitigate collection risk, leases, utilities or customs guarantees. As of June 29, 2018, the Revolving Credit Facility included $15.0 million of availability for the issuance of letters of credit. There were $0.1 million of letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility as of June 29, 2018, which reduces the Company’s borrowing capacity. The Company also had outstanding guarantees and letters of credit outside of its Revolving Credit Facility totaling $6.1 million as of June 29, 2018.

As part of obtaining financing in the ordinary course of business, the Company has issued guarantees related to certain of its subsidiaries’ capital lease obligations, equipment financing, lines of credit and real estate mortgages, which totaled $104.4 million as of June 29, 2018.

Based on historical experience and information currently available, the Company believes that it will not be required to make payments under the standby letters of credit or guarantee arrangements for the foreseeable future.

Indemnification Contingencies

The Company is a party to a variety of agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business pursuant to which it may be obligated to indemnify the other parties for certain liabilities that arise out of or relate to the subject matter of the agreements. Some of the agreements entered into by the Company require it to indemnify the other party against losses due to IP infringement, property damage (including environmental contamination), personal injury, failure to comply with applicable laws, the Company’s negligence or willful misconduct or breach of representations and warranties and covenants related to such matters as title to sold assets.

The Company faces risk of exposure to warranty and product liability claims in the event that its products fail to perform as expected or such failure of its products results, or is alleged to result, in economic damage, bodily injury or property damage. In addition, if any of the Company’s designed products are alleged to be defective, the Company may be required to participate in their recall. Depending on the significance of any particular customer and other relevant factors, the Company may agree to provide more favorable rights to such customer for valid defective product claims.

The Company and its subsidiaries provide for indemnification of directors, officers and other persons in accordance with limited liability company operating agreements, certificates of incorporation,by-laws, articles of association or similar organizational documents, as the case may be. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) authorizes a court to award, or a corporation’s board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations. The terms of Section 145 of the DGCL are sufficiently broad to permit indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities, including reimbursement of expenses incurred, arising under the Exchange Act. As permitted by the DGCL, the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), contains provisions relating to the limitation of liability and indemnification of directors and officers. The Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the personal liability of each of the Company’s directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, as it may be amended or supplemented, and provides that the Company will indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the DGCL, as amended from time to time.

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. The form of agreement (the “Indemnification Agreement”) provides, subject to certain exceptions and conditions specified in the Indemnification Agreement, that the Company will indemnify each indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law against all expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with a proceeding or claim in which such person is involved because of his or her status as one of the Company’s directors or executive officers. In addition, the Indemnification Agreement provides that the Company will, to the extent not prohibited by law and subject to certain exceptions and repayment conditions, advance specified indemnifiable expenses incurred by the indemnitee in connection with such proceeding or claim. The foregoing description of the Indemnification Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full and complete terms of the Indemnification Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form8-K filed by the Company on February 25, 2016 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The Company also maintains directors’ and officers’ insurance policies that indemnify its directors and officers against various liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Exchange Act, that might be incurred by any director or officer in his or her capacity as such.

The agreement and plan of merger relating to the acquisition of Fairchild (the “Fairchild Agreement”) provides for indemnification and insurance rights in favor of Fairchild’s then current and former directors, officers and employees. Specifically, the Company has agreed that, for no fewer than six years following the Fairchild acquisition, the Company will: (a) indemnify and hold harmless each such indemnitee against losses and expenses (including advancement of attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with any proceeding asserted against the indemnified party in connection with such person’s servings as a director, officer, employee or other fiduciary of Fairchild or its subsidiaries prior to the effective time of the acquisition;

(unaudited)

(b) maintain in effect all provisions of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Fairchild or any of its subsidiaries or any other agreements of Fairchild or any of its subsidiaries with any indemnified party regarding elimination of liability, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses in existence on the date of the Fairchild Agreement for acts or omissions occurring prior to the effective time of the acquisition; and (c) subject to certain qualifications, provide to Fairchild’s then current directors and officers an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring prior to the effective time of the acquisition that is no less favorable than Fairchild’s then-existing policy, or, if insurance coverage that is no less favorable is unavailable, the best available coverage.

While the Company’s future obligations under certain agreements may contain limitations on liability for indemnification, other agreements do not contain such limitations and under such agreements it is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments due to the conditional nature of the Company’s obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by the Company under any of these indemnities have not had a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Additionally, the Company does not believe that any amounts that it may be required to pay under these indemnities in the future will be material to the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including indemnification claims, claims of alleged infringement of patents, trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property rights, claims of allegednon-compliance with contract provisions and claims related to alleged violations of laws and regulations. The Company regularly evaluates the status of the legal proceedings in which it is involved to assess whether a loss is probable or there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or an additional loss, may have been incurred and determine if accruals are appropriate. If accruals are not appropriate, the Company further evaluates each legal proceeding to assess whether an estimate of possible loss or range of possible loss can be made for disclosure. Although litigation is inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that it has adequate provisions for any probable and estimable losses. It is possible, nevertheless, that the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity could be materially and adversely affected in any particular period by the resolution of a legal proceeding. The Company’s estimates do not represent its maximum exposure. Legal expenses related to defense, negotiations, settlements, rulings and advice of outside legal counsel are expensed as incurred.

The Company is currently involved in a variety of legal matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. Based on information currently available, except as disclosed below, the Company is not involved in any pending or threatened legal proceedings that it believes could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. The litigation process and the administrative process at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “USPTO”) are inherently uncertain, and the Company cannot guarantee that the outcome of these matters will be favorable to it.

Patent Litigation with Power Integrations, Inc.

There are eight outstanding civil litigation proceedings with Power Integrations, Inc. (“PI”), five of which were pending between PI and various Fairchild entities (including Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc., Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation, and Fairchild (Taiwan) Corporation, f/k/a System General Corporation (collectively referred to in thissub-section as “Fairchild”)), prior to the acquisition of Fairchild. The Company is vigorously defending the lawsuits filed by PI and believes that it has strong defenses. There are also over two dozen outstanding administrative proceedings between the parties at the USPTO in which each party is challenging the validity of the other party’s patents.

The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Any estimate or statement regarding any reserve or the estimated range of possible losses is made solely in compliance with applicable GAAP requirements and is not a statement or admission that the Company is or should be liable in any amount, or that any arguments, motions or appeals before any Court

lack merit or are subject to impeachment. To the contrary, the Company believes that it has significant and meritorious grounds for judgment in its favor with respect to all of the PI cases and that the Company’s appeals or motions currently pending at the district court level will significantly reduce or eliminate all prior adverse jury verdicts. Subject to the foregoing, as of the date of the filing of this Form10-Q, the Company estimates its range of possible losses for all PI cases to be between approximately $4.0 million and $20.0 million in the aggregate.

Power Integrations v. Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. et al. (October 20, 2004, Delaware, 1:04-cv-01371-LPS): PI filed this lawsuit in 2004 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Fairchild, alleging that certain of Fairchild’s pulse width modulation (“PWM”) integrated circuit products infringed U.S. patents owned by PI. The lawsuit sought a permanent injunction as well as money damages for Fairchild’s alleged infringement. In October 2006, a jury returned a willful infringement verdict and assessed damages against Fairchild. Fairchild voluntarily stopped U.S. sales and importation of those products in 2007 and has been offering replacement products since 2006. In December 2008, the judge overseeing the case reduced the jury’s 2006 damages award from $34.0 million to approximately $6.1 million and ordered a new trial on the issue of willfulness. Following the new trial held in June 2009, the court found Fairchild’s infringement to have been willful, and in January 2011 the court awarded PI final damages in the amount of $12.2 million. Fairchild appealed the final damages award, willfulness finding, and other issues to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. In March 2013, the Court of Appeals vacated substantially all of the damages award, ruling that there was no basis upon which a reasonable jury could find Fairchild liable for induced infringement. The Court of Appeals also vacated the earlier judgment of willful patent infringement. The full Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court of the United States later denied PI’s request to review the Court of Appeals ruling. The Court of Appeals instructed the lower court to conduct further proceedings to determine damages based on approximately $750,000 worth of sales and imports of affected products and tore-assess its finding that the infringement was willful. In December 2017, the lower court reinstated the willfulness finding but has since stayed resolution of the other outstanding issues, including damages. In June 2018, the Supreme Court of the United States decidedWesternGeco LLC v. ION Geophysical Corp., in which the Court determined that certain extraterritorial conduct may be relevant to some United States patent litigation. The lower court in this proceeding is in the process of determining whetherWesternGeco has any impact on this case and the next steps in the litigation.

Power Integrations v. Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. et al. (May 23, 2008, Delaware, 1:08-cv-00309-LPS): This lawsuit was initiated by PI in 2008 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against Fairchild, alleging that certain other PWM products infringed several U.S. patents owned by PI. On October 14, 2008, Fairchild filed a patent infringement lawsuit against PI in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that certain PI products infringed U.S. patents owned by Fairchild. Each lawsuit included claims for money damages and a request for a permanent injunction. These two lawsuits were consolidated and heard together in a jury trial in April 2012 during which the jury found that PI infringed one of the two U.S. patents owned by Fairchild and upheld the validity of both of the Fairchild patents. In the same verdict, the jury found that Fairchild infringed two of four U.S. patents asserted by PI and that Fairchild had induced its customers to infringe the asserted patents. (The court later ruled that Fairchild infringed one other asserted PI patent that the jury found was not infringed.) The jury also upheld the validity of the asserted PI patents, and the court entered a permanent injunction against Fairchild. Willfulness and damages were not considered in the April 2012 trial but were reserved for subsequent proceedings. Fairchild and PI appealed the liability phase of this litigation to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, which heard arguments in July 2016 and issued a decision in December 2016. In the decision, the appeals court vacated the jury’s finding that Fairchild induced infringement of PI’s patents, held that one of PI’s patents was invalid, vacated the permanent injunction against Fairchild, reversed the jury’s finding that PI infringed the Fairchild patent and remanded the case back to the lower court for further proceedings consistent with these rulings. The Company is preparing for a trial, currently scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2018, at which willfulness, inducement and money damages are expected to be addressed.

Power Integrations v. Fairchild Semiconductor International Inc. et al. (November 4, 2009, Northern District of California,3:09-cv-05235-MMC): In 2009, PI sued Fairchild in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging that several of Fairchild’s products infringe three of PI’s patents. Fairchild filed counterclaims asserting that PI infringed two Fairchild

(unaudited)

patents. During the initial trial on this matter in 2014, a jury found that Fairchild willfully infringed two PI patents, awarded PI $105.0 million in damages and found that PI did not infringe any Fairchild patent. In September 2014, the court granted a motion filed by Fairchild that sought to set aside the jury’s determination that it acted willfully, and held that, as a matter of law, Fairchild’s actions were not willful. In November 2014, in response to another post-trial motion filed by Fairchild, the trial court ruled that the jury lacked sufficient evidence on which to base its damages award and, consequently, vacated the $105.0 million verdict and ordered a second trial on damages. The second damages trial was held in December 2015, in which a jury awarded PI $139.8 million in damages. Fairchild filed a number of post-trial motions challenging the second damages verdict, but the court ruled against Fairchild on these motions and awarded PI approximately $7.0 million inpre-judgment interest. Following the court’s rulings on these issues, PI moved the court to reinstate the jury’s willfulness finding and sought enhanced damages and attorneys’ fees. On January 23, 2017, the court reinstated the jury’s willful infringement finding but denied PI’s motion for enhanced damages and attorneys’ fees in its entirety. The Company appealed the infringement and damages judgments, and in July 2018, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the judgment with respect to infringement of both PI patents but vacated the damages judgment because PI had presented legally insufficient evidence to support its damages claim. The appellate court thus remanded the case back to the lower court for a new trial on damages. All claims of the two PI patents found to be infringed by Fairchild have since been determined to be unpatentable in several inter partes review administrative proceedings described below. The impact of the USPTO’s unpatentability determinations on the district court judgment is uncertain at this stage of the proceedings.

Fairchild Semiconductor International Inc. et al. v. Power Integrations (May 1, 2012, Delaware, 1:12-cv-00540-LPS): In May 2012, Fairchild sued PI in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware and alleged that various PI products infringe Fairchild’s U.S. patents. PI filed counterclaims of patent infringement against Fairchild, asserting five PI patents. Of those five patents, the court granted Fairchild summary judgment of no infringement on one, and PI voluntarily withdrew a second and was forced to remove a third patent during the trial, which began in May 2015. In that trial, the jury found that PI induced infringement of Fairchild’s patent rights and awarded Fairchild $2.4 million in damages. The same jury found that Fairchild infringed a PI patent and awarded PI damages of $100,000. Based on the December 2016 appellate court decision in the litigation filed in Delaware in 2008 (described above), on July 13, 2017, the District Court vacated the jury’s finding that PI infringed Fairchild’s patent. The court has tentatively scheduled a trial for November 2018 to resolve minor outstanding issues before final judgment can be entered.

Power Integrations v. Fairchild Semiconductor International Inc. et al. (October 21, 2015, Northern District of California,3:15-cv-04854 MMC): In 2015, PI filed another complaint for patent infringement against Fairchild in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging Fairchild’s products willfully infringe two PI patents. In the complaint, PI is seeking a permanent injunction, unspecified damages, a trebling of damages, and an accounting of costs and fees. Fairchild answered and counterclaimed, alleging infringement by PI of four Fairchild patents related to aspects of PI’s products, and also seeking damages and a permanent injunction. The lawsuit is in its earliest stages, and has been stayed pending the outcome of the Company’s administrative challenges, which are described below, to the two PI patents asserted against Fairchild. PI has also filed administrative challenges to Fairchild’s asserted patents.

Power Integrations v. ON Semiconductor Corporation, and Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC (November 1, 2016, Northern District of California,5:16-cv-06371-BLF and5:17-cv-03189):On August 11, 2016, ON Semiconductor Corporation and SCILLC (collectively referred to in thissub-section as “ON Semi”) filed a lawsuit against PI in the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, alleging that PI infringed six patents and seeking a permanent injunction and money damages for the alleged infringement. The lawsuit also sought a claim for a declaratory judgment that ON Semi does not infringe several of PI’s patents. Rather than responding to ON Semi’s lawsuit in Arizona, PI filed a separate lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in November 2016, alleging that ON Semi infringes six PI patents, including two of the three PI patents in ON Semi’s declaratory judgment claims from Arizona. PI also moved the Arizona court to dismiss ON Semi’s lawsuit, or in the alternative to transfer the lawsuit to California. Following various procedural motions, ON Semi’s Arizona action has been transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and consolidated with PI’s November 2016 lawsuit, in which PI has subsequently asserted a claim for infringement on the last of the three PI patents in ON Semi’s original declaratory judgment claims. The lawsuit is in its early stages, but the parties have begun to engage in discovery.

ON Semiconductor Corporation and Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC v. Power Integrations, Inc. (March 9, 2017, District of Delaware,1:17-cv-00247-LPS-CJB): On March 9, 2017, ON Semi filed a lawsuit against PI in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that PI’s InnoSwitch family of products infringe six of ON Semi’s U.S. patents. Following some procedural motions, PI has since counterclaimed alleging infringement by ON Semi of seven of PI’s U.S. Patents. Both parties seek money damages and a permanent injunction. The lawsuit is in its early stages, but the parties have begun to engage in discovery.

Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC v. Power Integrations, Inc. (November 2017, Taiwan Intellectual Property Court,106-Ming-min-bu-Tzu-238): In November 2017, Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC filed a lawsuit against PI in Taiwan alleging infringement by PI of certain of ON Semi’s Taiwanese patents. The lawsuit is in its early stages.

Administrative Challenges to PI’s Patents

In addition to the eight court proceedings described above, there are presently numerous inter partes review administrative proceedings between PI and ON Semi/Fairchild. Each of these administrative proceedings seeks to invalidate certain claims asserted in the various court proceedings. For the two proceedings filed by ON Semi involving claims asserted in the case filed in 2009 in the Northern District of California, the USPTO has issued a Final Written Decision finding that all of the claims challenged in those proceedings are unpatentable, and PI filed a notice of appeal for those decisions. The USPTO has also issued Final Written Decisions in seven additional proceedings in ON Semiconductor’s favor, and PI’s appeals in those cases are ongoing. In five of the proceedings initiated by PI, the USPTO has instituted a review of five ON Semi/Fairchild patents that are being asserted against PI, but the USPTO has not rendered a Final Written Decision in any of those five cases. All of the other proceedings remain pending or were terminated without substantive review by the USPTO.

Litigation with Acbel Polytech, Inc.

On November 27, 2013, Fairchild and Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation were named as defendants in a complaint filed by Acbel Polytech, Inc. (“Acbel”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The lawsuit alleged a number of causes of action, including breach of warranty, fraud, negligence and strict liability, and has been docketed as Acbel Polytech, Inc. v. Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. et al, Case #1:13-CV-13046-DJC. On December 10, 2016, the Court issued an order on the Company’s motion for summary judgment dismissing all of Acbel’s claims except for claims alleging breach of implied warranties. A bench trial was held in June 2017. On December 27, 2017, the Court rendered a verdict in favor of the Fairchild defendants on the remaining implied warranty claims. On January 24, 2018, Acbel filed a notice of appeal. On February 7, 2018, Fairchild filed notice of a cross appeal. Acbel filed its appeal brief on April 9, 2018, and Fairchild filed its brief on May 29, 2018.

Intellectual Property Matters

The Company faces risk to exposure from claims of infringement of the IP rights of others. In the ordinary course of business, the Company receives letters asserting that the Company’s products or components breach another party’s rights. Such letters may request royalty payments from the Company, that the Company cease and desist using certain intellectual property or other remedies.

The carrying amounts of other current assets and liabilities, such as accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt, Including Current Portion

The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s long-term borrowings (excluding capital lease obligations, real estate mortgages and equipment financing) are as follows (in millions):

	As of
	June 29, 2018				December 31, 2017

(unaudited)

The fair values of the Company’s 1.00% Notes and 1.625% Notes were estimated based on market prices in active markets (Level 1). The fair value of other long-term debt was estimated based on discounting the remaining principal and interest payments using current market rates for similar debt (Level 2) at June 29, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

Cost and Equity Method Investments

The Company accounts for investments in companies that it does not control, or have significant influence over, under the cost method, as applicable. If a decline in the fair value of a cost method investment is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded, and the carrying value of the cost method investment is reduced to fair value. The Company evaluates all of its cost method investments for impairment; however, it is not required to determine the fair value of its investment unless impairment indicators are present.

The Company’s cost method investments had a carrying value of $7.4 million and $12.6 million as of June 29, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

On April 1, 2018 (the “second closing date”), the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a 30 percent incremental interest in AFSM for $19.8 million in cash, resulting in a 40 percent ownership interest with an aggregate investment value of $26.2 million. The Company’s investment in AFSM, which was accounted for under the cost method through the quarter ended March 30, 2018, has been accounted for under the equity method beginning April 1, 2018 following the increase in the Company’s investment. Subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, the Company will be required to increase its ownership interest to 60 percent between one and six months following the second closing date (the “third closing date”) and will be required to increase its ownership interest to 100 percent between nine and 18 months following the third closing date.

AFSM, a related party beginning in the quarter ended June 29, 2018, operates afront-end fabrication facility inAizu-Wakamatsu that manufactures8-inch wafers based on design specification from its customers, which are primarily the Company and another investor. During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, the Company purchased inventory of approximately $7.3 million and has a payable of $1.6 million to AFSM as of June 29, 2018.

Note 12: Financial Instruments

Foreign Currencies

As a multinational business, the Company’s transactions are denominated in a variety of currencies. When appropriate, the Company uses forward foreign currency contracts to reduce its overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on its results of operations and cash flows. The Company’s policy prohibits trading in currencies for which there are no underlying exposures and entering into trades for any currency to intentionally increase the underlying exposure.

The Company primarily hedges existing assets and liabilities associated with transactions currently on its balance sheet, which are undesignated hedges for accounting purposes.

As of June 29, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had net outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts of $86.4 million and $130.5 million, respectively. Such contracts were obtained through financial institutions and were scheduled to mature within one to three months from the time of purchase. Management believes that these financial instruments should not subject the Company to increased risks from foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should offset losses and gains on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions to which they are related.

Amounts receivable or payable under the contracts are included in other current assets or accrued expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, realized and unrealized foreign currency transactions totaled a $2.2 million loss and a $0.1 million gain, respectively. For the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, realized and unrealized foreign currency transactions totaled a $6.6 million loss and a $2.8 million loss, respectively. The realized and unrealized foreign currency transactions are included in other income and expenses in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

Cash Flow Hedges

All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value and classified based on the instrument’s maturity date.

Interest rate risk

The Company uses interest rate swap contracts to mitigate its exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with the Term Loan “B” Facility. The Company does not use such swap contracts for speculative or trading purposes. These contracts effectively hedge some of the future variable rate LIBOR interest expense to a fixed rate interest expense. The derivative instruments qualified for accounting as a cash flow hedge in accordance with ASC 815, and the Company designated it as such. The Company performed effectiveness assessments and concluded that there is no ineffectiveness during the quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017.

Foreign currency risk

The purpose of the Company’s foreign currency hedging activities is to protect the Company from the risk that the eventual cash flows resulting from transactions in foreign currencies will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. The Company enters into forward contracts that are designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges of selected forecasted payments denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

For the quarters and six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the Company did not have outstanding derivatives for its foreign currency exposure designated as cash flow hedges.

Convertible Note Hedges

The Company entered into convertible note hedges in connection with the issuance of the 1.00% Notes and 1.625% Notes.

Other

At June 29, 2018, the Company had no outstanding commodity derivatives, currency swaps or options relating to either its debt instruments or investments. The Company does not hedge the value of its equity investments in its subsidiaries or affiliated companies. The Company is exposed to credit-related losses if counterparties to hedge contracts fail to perform their obligations. As of June 29, 2018, the counterparties to the Company’s hedge contracts are held at financial institutions which the Company believes to be highly rated, and no credit-related losses are anticipated.

Note 13: Income Taxes

The Company has historically determined its interim income tax provision by applying the estimated effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year to the income before income taxes for the period. In determining the full year estimate, the Company does not include the estimated impact of unusual and/or infrequent items, which may cause significant variations in the customary relationship between income tax expense and income before income taxes. Significant judgment is exercised in determining the income tax provision due to transactions, credits and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 29, 2018, was 19.2%, which differs from the U.S. federal income tax rate of 21.0% principally due to discrete benefits of $8.9 million relating to the release of reserves and interest for uncertain tax positions in the U.S. and foreign taxing jurisdictions related to prior years and $2.8 million relating to the release of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets expected to be realized in the foreseeable future. These benefits are partially offset by foreign taxes for which the Company will not receive a U.S. tax credit as a result of U.S. tax reform and the Company’s U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2018 was 15.3%, which differs from the U.S. federal income tax rate of 21.0% principally due to discrete benefits of $8.9 million relating to the release of reserves and interest for uncertain tax positions in the U.S. and foreign taxing jurisdictions related to prior years, $19.9 million relating to an increase in deferred tax assets and release of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets expected to be realized in the foreseeable future and $7.1 million relating to equity award excess tax benefits. These benefits are partially offset by foreign taxes for which the Company will not receive a U.S. tax credit as a result of U.S. tax reform and the Company’s U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards.

In December 2017 the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”), which allows the Company to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date. As of June 29, 2018, the Company has not completed its accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Tax Act; however, in certain cases, specifically as follows, the Company made a reasonable estimate of (i) the effects on its existing deferred tax balances and (ii) the effects ofthe one-time mandatory repatriation tax. The Company recognized a provisional tax benefit of $449.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2017, associated with the items it could reasonably estimate. For the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2018, there have not been any adjustments made to these estimates. The Company is still analyzing the Tax Act and refining its calculations, which could potentially impact the measurement of its tax balances. The Company expects to complete its analysis within the measurement period in accordance with SAB 118.

At June 29, 2018, the Company was not able to reasonably estimate, and therefore has not recorded, deferred taxes for the Global IntangibleLow-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions of the Tax Act. The Company has not yet determined its policy election with respect to whether to record deferred taxes for basis differences expected to reverse as a result of the GILTI provisions in future periods or use the period cost method. The Company has, however, included an estimate of the current impact of GILTI in its tax provision for 2018.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company had approximately $4.0 million and $5.0 million of net interest and penalties accrued at June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.

Although the Company cannot predict the timing of resolution with taxing authorities, if any, it believes it is reasonably possible that $7.5 million of its unrecognized tax benefits will be reduced in the next 12 months due to settlement with tax authorities or expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

Tax years 2013 and prior are generally not subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Services (the “IRS”) except for items involving tax attributes that have been carried forward to tax years whose statute of limitations remains open. The Company is not currently under IRS examination. For state tax returns, the Company is generally not subject to income tax examinations for years 2012 and prior. The Company is also subject to routine examinations by various foreign tax jurisdictions in which it operates. With respect to major jurisdictions outside the United States, the Company’s subsidiaries are no longer subject to income tax audits for years prior to 2007. The Company is currently under audit in the following significant jurisdictions: China, the Czech Republic, Malaysia, Mauritius, Singapore and Vietnam.

Executive Overview

This Executive Overview presents summary information regarding the industry, markets, business and operating trends of ON Semiconductor Corporation, which was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in 1999, and its subsidiaries (“we,” “us,” “our,” “ON Semiconductor” or the “Company”).

Industry Overview

We participate in unit and revenue surveys and use data summarized by WSTS (an industry research firm) to evaluate overall semiconductor market trends and to track our progress against the market in the areas we provide semiconductor components. The most recently published estimates from WSTS project a compound annual growth rate in our serviceable addressable market of approximately 5.0% through 2020. These are not our projections and may not be indicative of actual results. We, like many of our competitors, view this information as helpful third party projections and estimates.

ON Semiconductor Overview

ON Semiconductor is driving innovation in energy efficient electronics. Our extensive portfolio of sensors, power management, connectivity, custom and SoC, analog, logic, timing and discrete devices helps customers efficiently solve their design challenges in advanced electronic systems and products. Our power management and motor driver semiconductor components control, convert, protect and monitor the supply of power to the different elements within a wide variety of electronic devices. Our custom ASICs and SoC devices use analog, MCU, DSP, mixed-signal and advanced logic capabilities to enable the application and uses of many of our automotive, medical, aerospace/defense, consumer and industrial customers’ products. Our signal management semiconductor components provide high-performance clock management and data flow management for precision computing, communications and industrial systems. Our growing portfolio of sensors, including image sensors, optical image stabilization and auto focus devices, provide advanced solutions for automotive, wireless, industrial and consumer applications. Our standard semiconductor components serve as “building blocks” within virtually all types of electronic devices. These various products fall into the logic, analog, discrete, image sensors, IoT and memory categories used by the WSTS group.

We serve a broad base ofend-user markets, including automotive, communications, computing, consumer, medical, industrial, networking, telecom and aerospace/defense. Our devices are found in a wide variety of end products including automobiles, smartphones, media tablets, wearable electronics, personal computers, servers, industrial building and home automation systems, factory automation, consumer white goods, security and surveillance systems, machine vision, LED lighting, power supplies, networking and telecom equipment, medical diagnostics, imaging and hearing health, sensor networks and robotics.

Our portfolio of devices enables us to offer advanced ICs and the “building block” components that deliver system level functionality and design solutions. We shipped approximately 36.7 billion units during the six months ended June 29, 2018, as compared to 36.0 billion units during the six months ended June 30, 2017. We offer micro packages, which provide increased performance characteristics while reducing the critical board space inside today’s ever shrinking electronic devices and power modules, delivering improved energy efficiency and reliability for a wide variety of medium and high power applications. We believe that our ability to offer a broad range of products, combined with our applications and global manufacturing and logistics network, provides our customers with single source purchasing on a cost-effective and timely basis.

Operating and Reporting Segments

As many products are sold into differentend-markets, the total revenues reported for a segment is not indicative of actual sales in theend-market associated with that segment, but rather is the sum of the revenues from the product lines assigned to that segment. From time to time, we reassess the alignment of our product families and devices to our operating segments and may move product families or individual devices from one operating segment to another. As of June 29, 2018, the Company was organized into the following three operating and reporting segments: the Power Solutions Group, theAnalog Solutions Group and the Intelligent Sensing Group.

39

Business and Macroeconomic Environment

The semiconductor industry has traditionally been highly cyclical, has often experienced significant downturns in connection with, or in anticipation of, declines in general economic conditions and may experience significant uncertainty and volatility in the future. We believe our business today is driven more by secular growth drivers and not solely by macroeconomic and industry cyclicality, as was the case historically. However, in the future, we could again experienceperiod-to-period fluctuations in operating results due to general industry or economic conditions.

We have recognized efficiencies from restructuring activities and programs and continue to implement profitability enhancement programs to improve our cost structure. We have historically reviewed, and will continue to review, our cost structure, capital investments and other expenditures to align our spending and capacity with our current sales and manufacturing projections. We have historically taken significant actions to align our overall cost structure with our expected revenue levels by focusing on synergies-related cost reductions arising from each of our acquisitions.

The U.S. government recently imposed, and has also proposed imposing, among other actions, new or higher tariffs on specified imported products originating from China in response to what it characterizes as unfair trade practices, and China has responded by imposing new or higher tariffs on specified products imported from the United States. U.S. government tariffs may cause an increase in the cost of the products that we import from our factories in China, and may have an adverse effect on our profitability, in the event we are unable to pass on the cost increase to our customers. This increase might also translate into an increase in the sale prices for certain of our products, the impacts of which are currently unknown. For more information, see Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q.

42

Our gross profit was $555.0 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to $492.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Gross profit increased by $63.0 million, or 13%, for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2017, and is primarily due to an increase in gross profits in our Power Solutions Group and Analog Solutions Group.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased to approximately 38.1% for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 from approximately 36.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to higher factory utilization and product mix.

Operating Expenses

Research and development expenses were $167.1 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to $145.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $21.5 million, or approximately 15%. This increase was primarily in the area of payroll and payroll related costs due to increased headcount as well as an increase in the cost of the materials utilized in research and development.

Selling and marketing expenses were $81.7 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018, compared to $79.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $2.2 million, or approximately 3%. There were no significant changes in any of the major expense categories.

General and administrative expenses were $74.6 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018, compared to $76.6 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2017, representing a decrease of $2.0 million, or approximately 3%. There were no significant changes in any of the major expense categories.

Other Operating Expenses

Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangible Assets

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets was $27.9 million and $28.6 million for the quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, representing a decrease of $0.7 million, or approximately 2%.

Restructuring, Asset Impairments and Other, Net

Restructuring, asset impairments and other, net was $3.2 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to $5.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, respectively, representing a decrease of $2.7 million, or approximately 45.8%.

Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment

Goodwill and intangible assets impairment was $3.3 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to $1.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. We recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $3.3 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2018. In the quarter ended June 30, 2017, we abandoned certain of our previously capitalized IPRD projects and recorded impairment charges of $1.8 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $2.1 million to $32.6 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to $34.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to repayments of outstanding balances offset by a marginal increase in interest rates. Our average gross long-term debt balance (including current maturities) for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 was $3,003.8 million at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.3%, compared to $3,472.9 million at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.0% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

43

Loss on Debt Refinancing and Prepayment

Loss on debt refinancing was $4.0 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to zero for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. We recorded a debt extinguishment charge of $2.6 million related to the refinancing of the Term Loan “B” Facility and expensed $1.4 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs attributed to the partialpay-down of the Term Loan “B” Facility during the quarter ended June 29, 2018.

Gain on Divestiture of Business

Gain on divestiture of business was $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to zero for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. We divested the transient voltage suppressing diodes business we acquired from Fairchild to TSC America, Inc. and recorded a gain of $4.6 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2018.

Licensing Income

Licensing income was $28.1 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 compared to $23.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, due to the achievement of certain criteria based on which income was recognized under the various licensing agreements. We have completed recognizing licensing income under the existing agreements as of June 29, 2018.

Other

Other expense increased by $0.5 million to $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 29, 2018, compared to $0.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, primarily attributable to the impact of our hedging activity offset by an adjustment to contingent consideration and income recognized under the equity method investment from AFSM.

Provision for Income Taxes

We recorded an income tax provision of $37.1 million and $48.8 million during the quarters ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.

The income tax provision for the quarter ended June 29, 2018 consisted of $48.2 million for income and withholding taxes of certain of our foreign and domestic operations and $1.0 million of new reserves and interest on existing reserves for uncertain tax positions in the U.S. and foreign taxing jurisdictions. These amounts were offset by discrete benefits of $8.9 million relating to the release of reserves and interest for uncertain tax positions in foreign taxing jurisdictions related to prior years, $2.8 million relating to the release of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets expected to be realized in the foreseeable future and $0.4 million relating to equity award excess tax benefits.

The income tax provision for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 consisted of $50.2 million for income and withholding taxes of certain of our foreign and domestic operations and $0.3 million of new interest on existing reserves for uncertain tax positions in foreign taxing jurisdictions. These amounts were offset by a discrete benefit of $1.2 million for reserves and interest for uncertain tax positions in foreign taxing jurisdictions which were effectively settled or for which the statute lapsed and a discrete benefit of $0.5 million relating to equity award excess tax benefits.

We expect our future effective tax rate, before discrete items, to be between 23% and 27% until we fully utilize all of our U.S. federal net operating losses. The primary difference between our estimated future effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate of 21% is due to disallowed foreign taxes for which we will not receive a U.S. tax benefit as a result of U.S. tax reform. The change in our future effective tax rate is not anticipated to have an effect on our cash tax until all of our U.S. federal net operating losses net operating losses and credits have been utilized. We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on our U.S. state deferred tax assets and a valuation allowance on foreign net operating losses and tax credits in certain other foreign jurisdictions.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, we were able to estimate upfront the effects of returns and allowances and record revenue at the time of shipments to our distributors. Prior to this, we recognized revenue from distributors under the sell-through method as we did not have the ability to estimate the effects of returns and allowances. This change resulted in us recognizing an additional $155.1 million in revenues during the first quarter of 2017, which resulted in an increase of $59.0 million to gross profit and income before income taxes. The impact of this change is reflected in the discussion below.

Revenues

Revenues were $2,833.5 million and $2,774.7 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, representing an increase of $58.8 million, or approximately 2.1%. Excluding theone-time impact of the change in revenue recognition on distributor sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017 amounting to $155.1 million, revenues increased by $213.9 million, or approximately 8%.

Revenues from the Power Solutions Group increased by $25.6 million, or approximately 2%, for the six months ended June 29, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Excluding $107.8 million from the change in revenue recognition on distributor sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, the revenues in our Power MOSFET Division increased by $70.6 million due to increased demand and the revenues in our High Power Division increased by $59.7 million due to entry into new markets and increased demand.

Revenues from the Analog Solutions Group increased by $37.3 million, or approximately 4%, for the six months ended June 29, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Excluding $42.1 million from the change in revenue recognition on distributor sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, revenues in our Digital and DC/DC Division increased by $38.0 million and the revenues in our Automotive Division increased by $34.9 million both due to increased demand in the markets served.

Revenues from the Intelligent Sensing Group decreased by $4.1 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017. Excluding $5.1 million from the change in revenue recognition on distributor sales for the six months ended June 30, 2017, the revenues in our Automotive Solutions Division increased by $32.2 million due to increased demand, offset by a decrease of $29.5 million in our Consumer Solutions Division, primarily as a result of the exit of the Mobile CIS business.

Revenues by geographic location, including local sales made by operations within each area, based on sales billed from the respective country, were as follows (dollars in millions):

	Six Months Ended June 29, 2018		As a % of Total Revenues (1)			Six Months Ended June 30, 2017		As a % of Total Revenues (1)

Gross Profit and Gross Margin (exclusive of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets described below)

Our gross profit by operating and reporting segments was as follows (dollars in millions):

	Six Months Ended June 29, 2018			As a % of Segment Revenues (1)			Six Months Ended June 30, 2017			As a % of Segment Revenues (1)
Power Solutions Group	$	506.3			35.1	%	$	472.5			33.4	%
Analog Solutions Group		426.1			42.2	%		405.1			41.7	%
Intelligent Sensing Group		164.3			42.9	%		142.3			36.7	%
Gross profit for reporting segment	$	1,096.7					$	1,019.9
Unallocated manufacturing costs		(24.3	)		(0.9	)%		(24.8	)		(0.9	)%
Consolidated gross profit	$	1,072.4			37.8	%	$	995.1			35.9	%

(1) Certain amounts may not total due to rounding of individual amounts.

Our gross profit was $1,072.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 compared to $995.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was positively impacted by $59.0 million due to a change in revenue recognition on distributor sales and negatively impacted by $11.1 million of expensing of fair market value of inventorystep-up from the Fairchild acquisition. Excluding these items, gross profit increased by $125.2 million or 13.2%, for the six months ended June 29, 2018 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to an increase in gross profits in our Power Solutions Group and Analog Solutions Group.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenues increased to approximately 37.8% for the six months ended June 29, 2018, from approximately 35.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to higher factory utilization and product mix.

Operating Expenses

Research and development expenses were $322.3 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $285.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $36.6 million, or approximately 12.8%. This increase was primarily in the area of payroll and payroll related costs due to increased headcount as well as an increase in the cost of the materials utilized in research and development.

Selling and marketing expenses were $159.5 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $157.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $2.5 million, or approximately 1.6%. There were no significant changes in any of the major expense categories.

General and administrative expenses were $145.5 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $145.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2017, representing an increase of $0.5 million, or approximately 0.3%. There were no significant changes in any of the major expense categories.

Other Operating Expenses

Amortization of Acquisition-Related Intangible Assets

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets was $55.3 million and $57.7 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, representing a decrease of $2.4 million, or approximately 4.2%. The decrease was primarily associated with the declining amortization of several intangible assets partially offset by the increased amortization for our Fairchild intangible assets.

47

Restructuring, Asset Impairments and Other, Net

Restructuring, asset impairments and other, net was $3.6 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $6.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, representing a decrease of $2.8 million, or approximately 43.8%.

Goodwill and Intangible Asset Impairment

Goodwill and intangible assets impairment was $3.3 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017. We recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $3.3 million during the six months ended June 29, 2018, while in the six months ended June 30, 2017, we abandoned certain of our previously capitalized IPRD projects and recorded impairment charges of $6.2 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $9.0 million to $64.1 million during the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $73.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to repayments of outstanding balances offset by a marginal increase in the interest rate. Our average gross long-term debt balance (including current maturities) for the six months ended June 29, 2018 was $3,069.5 million at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.2%, compared to $3,607.1 million at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 4.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Loss on Debt Refinancing and Prepayment

Loss on debt refinancing was $4.0 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 compared to $26.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

We recorded a debt extinguishment charge of $2.6 million related to the refinancing of the Term Loan “B” facility and expensed $1.4 million of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs attributed to the partialpay-down of the Term Loan “B” facility during the six months ended June 29, 2018.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded a $20.6 million loss on prepayment of a portion of the Term Loan “B” facility and $5.6 million of debt extinguishment charges related to the refinancing of the Term Loan “B” facility.

Gain on Divestiture of Business

Gain on divestiture of business was $4.6 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to zero for the six months June 30, 2017. During the six months ended June 29, 2018, we divested the transient voltage suppressing diodes business we acquired from Fairchild to TSC America, Inc. and recorded a gain of $4.6 million.

Licensing Income

Licensing income was $31.9 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $23.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017, due to the achievement of certain criteria based on which income was recognized under the various licensing agreements. We have completed recognizing licensing income under the existing agreements as of June 29, 2018.

Other

Other expense decreased by $1.6 million to $3.0 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018, compared to $4.6 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017, primarily attributable to an adjustment to contingent consideration and income recognized under the equity method investment from AFSM partially offset by the impact of our hedging activity.

48

Provision for Income Taxes

We recorded an income tax provision of $53.5 million and $85.1 million during the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.

The income tax provision for the six months ended June 29, 2018 consisted of $88.1 million for income and withholding taxes of certain of our foreign and domestic operations and $1.3 million of new reserves and interest on existing reserves for uncertain tax positions in foreign taxing jurisdictions. These amounts were offset by discrete benefits of $8.9 million relating to the release of reserves and interest for uncertain tax positions in the U.S. and foreign taxing jurisdictions related to prior years, $19.9 million relating to an increase in deferred tax assets and release of valuation allowance against deferred tax assets expected to be realized in the foreseeable future and $7.1 million relating to equity award excess tax benefits.

The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2017 consisted of $91.0 million for income and withholding taxes of certain of our foreign and domestic operations, $0.6 million of new interest on existing reserves for uncertain tax positions in foreign taxing jurisdictions, offset by a discrete benefit of $1.2 million for reserves and interest for uncertain tax positions in foreign taxing jurisdictions which were effectively settled or for which the statute lapsed and a discrete benefit of $5.3 million relating to equity award excess tax benefits.

We expect our future effective tax rate, before discrete items, to be between 23% and 27% until we fully utilize all of our U.S. federal net operating losses. The primary difference between our estimated future effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate of 21% is due to disallowed foreign taxes for which we will not receive a U.S. tax benefit as a result of U.S. tax reform. The change in our future effective tax rate is not anticipated to have an effect on our cash tax until all of our U.S. federal net operating losses and credits have been utilized. We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on our U.S. state deferred tax assets and a valuation allowance on foreign net operating losses and tax credits in certain other foreign jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

This section includes a discussion and analysis of our cash requirements,off-balance sheet arrangements, contingencies, sources and uses of cash, operations, working capital and long-term assets and liabilities.

Contractual Obligations

As of June 29, 2018, there were no material changes outside of the ordinary course of business to the contractual obligations table, including the notes thereto, contained in the 2017 Form10-K. See Note 10: “Commitments and Contingencies” for information on operating leases and financing activities (including certain information with respect to our Revolving Credit Facility) and Note 6: “Balance Sheet Information” for information with respect to pension plan information, in each case, in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q.

Our balance of cash and cash equivalents was $850.2 million as of June 29, 2018. We believe that our cash flows from operations, coupled with our existing cash and cash equivalents, will be adequate to fund our operating and capital needs for at least the next 12 months. Total cash and cash equivalents as of June 29, 2018 include approximately $224.0 million available within the United States. While we hold a significant amount of cash and cash equivalents outside the United States in various foreign subsidiaries, we have the ability to obtain cash in the United States in order to cover our domestic needs, through distributions from our foreign subsidiaries, by utilizing existing credit facilities or through new bank loans or debt obligations.

During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, we recorded the outstanding balance, net of discount, of $630.7 million of the 1.00% Notes as a current portion of long-term debt. See Note 7: “Long-Term Debt” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q.

49

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various operating leases for buildings and equipment, including our mainframe computer system, desktop computers, communications, foundry equipment and service agreements relating to this equipment.

In the ordinary course of business, we provide standby letters of credit or other guarantee instruments to certain parties initiated by either our subsidiaries or us, as required for transactions including, but not limited to: material purchase commitments, agreements to mitigate collection risk, leases, utilities or customs guarantees. As of June 29, 2018, our Revolving Credit Facility included $15.0 million of availability for the issuance of letters of credit. There were $0.1 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility as of June 29, 2018, which reduces our borrowing capacity. We also had outstanding guarantees and letters of credit outside of our Revolving Credit Facility of $6.1 million as of June 29, 2018.

As part of securing financing in the ordinary course of business, we have issued guarantees related to certain of our subsidiaries’ capital lease obligations, equipment financing, lines of credit and real estate mortgages, which totaled $104.4 million as of June 29, 2018. Based on historical experience and information currently available, we believe that we will not be required to make payments under the standby letters of credit or guarantee arrangements for the foreseeable future.

For our operating leases, we expect to make cash payments and similarly incur expenses totaling $170.9 million as payments come due. We have not recorded any liability in connection with these operating leases, letters of credit and guarantee arrangements. See Note 7: “Long-Term Debt” and Note 10: “Commitments and Contingencies” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q for additional information.

Contingencies

We are a party to a variety of agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify other parties for certain liabilities that arise out of or relate to the subject matter of the agreements. Some of the agreements entered into by us require us to indemnify the other party against losses due to IP infringement, property damage including environmental contamination, personal injury, failure to comply with applicable laws, our negligence or willful misconduct or breach of representations and warranties and covenants related to such matters as title to sold assets.

We face risk of exposure to warranty and product liability claims in the event that our products fail to perform as expected or such failure of our products results, or is alleged to result, in economic damage, bodily injury or property damage. In addition, if any of our designed products are alleged to be defective, we may be required to participate in their recall. Depending on the significance of any particular customer and other relevant factors, we may agree to provide more favorable rights to such customer for valid defective product claims.

We maintain directors’ and officers’ insurance policies that indemnify our directors and officers against various liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Exchange Act, that might be incurred by any director or officer in his or her capacity as such.

The Fairchild Agreement provides for indemnification and insurance rights in favor of Fairchild’s then current and former directors, officers and employees. Specifically, the Company has agreed that, for no fewer than six years following the Fairchild acquisition, the Company will: (a) indemnify and hold harmless each such indemnitee against losses and expenses (including advancement of attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with any proceeding asserted against the indemnified party in connection with such person’s servings as a director, officer, employee or other fiduciary of Fairchild or its subsidiaries prior to the effective time of the acquisition; (b) maintain in effect all provisions of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Fairchild or any of its subsidiaries or any other agreements of Fairchild or any of its subsidiaries with any indemnified party regarding elimination of liability, indemnification of officers, directors and employees and advancement of expenses in existence on the date of the Fairchild Agreement for acts or omissions occurring prior to the effective time of the acquisition and; (c) subject to certain qualifications, provide to Fairchild’s then current directors and officers an insurance and indemnification policy that provides coverage for events occurring prior to the effective time of the acquisition that is no less favorable than Fairchild’s then-existing policy, or, if insurance coverage that is no less favorable is unavailable, the best available coverage.

50

While our future obligations under certain agreements may contain limitations on liability for indemnification, other agreements do not contain such limitations and under such agreements it is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under any of these indemnities have not had a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, and we do not believe that any amounts that we may be required to pay under these indemnities in the future will be material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

See Note 10: “Commitments and Contingencies” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements under the heading “Legal Matters” included elsewhere in this Form10-Q for possible contingencies related to legal matters. See also Part I, Item 1 “Business - Government Regulation” of the 2017 Form10-K for information on certain environmental matters.

Sources and Uses of Cash

We require cash to fund our operating expenses and working capital requirements, including outlays for strategic acquisitions and investments, for research and development, to make capital expenditures, to repurchase our common stock and other Company securities and to pay debt service, including principal and interest and capital lease payments. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated from operations and funds from external borrowings and equity issuances. In the near term, we expect to fund our primary cash requirements through cash generated from operations and with cash and cash equivalents on hand. We also have the ability to utilize our Revolving Credit Facility.

As part of our business strategy, we review acquisition and divestiture opportunities and proposals on a regular basis. During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, we completed the acquisition of SensL and the divestiture of the transient voltage suppressing diodes business we acquired from Fairchild. See Note 4: “Acquisitions, Divestitures and Licensing Transactions” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q.

We believe that the key factors that could affect our internal and external sources of cash include:

• Factors that affect our results of operations and cash flows, including the impact on our business and operations as a result of changes in demand for our products, competitive pricing pressures, effective management of our manufacturing capacity, our ability to achieve further reductions in operating expenses, the impact of our restructuring programs on our production and cost efficiency and our ability to make the research and development expenditures required to remain competitive in our business; and

• Factors that affect our access to bank financing and the debt and equity capital markets that could impair our ability to obtain needed financing on acceptable terms or to respond to business opportunities and developments as they arise, including interest rate fluctuations, macroeconomic conditions, sudden reductions in the general availability of lending from banks or the related increase in cost to obtain bank financing and our ability to maintain compliance with covenants under our debt agreements in effect from time to time.

Our ability to service our long-term debt, including our 1.625% Notes, 1.00% Notes, Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan “B” Facility, to remain in compliance with the various covenants contained in our debt agreements and to fund working capital, capital expenditures and business development efforts will depend on our ability to generate cash from operating activities, which is subject to, among other things, our future operating performance, as well as to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control.

If we fail to generate sufficient cash from operations, we may need to raise additional equity or borrow additional funds to achieve our longer term objectives. There can be no assurance that such equity or borrowings will be available or, if available, will be at rates or prices acceptable to us. We believe that cash flow from operating activities coupled with existing cash and cash equivalents and existing credit facilities will be adequate to fund our operating and capital needs, as well as enable us to maintain compliance with our various debt agreements, through at least the next 12 months. To the extent that results or events differ from our financial projections or business plans, our liquidity may be adversely impacted.

51

During the ordinary course of business, we evaluate our cash requirements and, if necessary, adjust our expenditures for inventory, operating expenditures and capital expenditures to reflect the current market conditions and our projected sales and demand. Our capital expenditures are primarily directed toward production equipment and capacity expansion. Our capital expenditure levels can materially influence our available cash for other initiatives. For example, during the six months ended June 29, 2018, we paid approximately $252.4 million for capital expenditures, while during the six months ended June 30, 2017, we paid approximately $121.7 million for capital expenditures. Our current minimum capital expenditure contractual commitment for the remainder of 2018 is approximately $105.7 million. Our current minimum contractual capital expenditure commitment for 2019 and thereafter is approximately $37.8 million. While our capital expenditures have historically been approximately 6% to 7% of annual revenues, we expect to incur capital expenditures of approximately 8% to 9% of annual revenues for the remainder of 2018 and 2019 to adjust to a higher growth environment and to further improve our manufacturing cost structure. Future capital expenditures may be impacted by events and transactions that are not currently forecasted.

Primary Cash Flow Sources

Our long-term cash generation is dependent on the ability of our operations to generate cash. Our cash flows from operating activities were approximately $495.0 million and approximately $541.7 million for the six months ended June 29, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively. The decrease of $46.7 million was primarily attributable to the change in working capital during the period. Our ability to maintain positive operating cash flows is dependent on, among other factors, our success in achieving our revenue goals and manufacturing and operating cost targets.

Our management of our assets and liabilities, including both working capital and long-term assets and liabilities, also influences our operating cash flows, and each of these components is discussed below.

Working Capital

Working capital, calculated as total current assets less total current liabilities, fluctuates depending onend-market demand and our effective management of certain items such as receivables, inventory and payables. In times of escalating demand, our working capital requirements may be affected as we purchase additional manufacturing materials and increase production. Our working capital may also be affected by restructuring programs, which may require us to use cash for severance payments, asset transfers and contract termination costs. In addition, our working capital may be affected by acquisitions and transactions involving our convertible notes and other debt instruments. Our working capital, excluding cash and cash equivalents, was $181.8 million at June 29, 2018 and has fluctuated between $668.2 million and $97.1 million at the end of each of our last six fiscal quarters. Our working capital, including cash and cash equivalents, was $1,032.0 million at June 29, 2018 and has fluctuated between $1,524.3 million and $1,022.0 million at the end of each of our last six fiscal quarters.

Although investments made to fund working capital will reduce our cash balances, these investments are necessary to support business and operating initiatives. During the six months ended June 29, 2018, our working capital was most significantly impacted by the reclassification of the 1.00% Notes to current portion of long-term debt and our capital expenditures, including capital leases. See Note 7: “Long-Term Debt” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q for additional information on the reclassification of the 1.00% Notes.

Long-Term Assets and Liabilities

Our long-term assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred taxes and goodwill.

Our manufacturing rationalization plans have included efforts to utilize our existing manufacturing assets and supply arrangements more efficiently. We believe that near-term access to additional manufacturing capacity, should it be required, could be readily obtained on reasonable terms through manufacturing agreements with third parties. We will continue to look for opportunities to make strategic purchases in the future for additional capacity.

52

Our long-term liabilities, excluding long-term debt and deferred taxes, consist of liabilities under our foreign defined benefit pension plans and contingent tax reserves. In regard to our foreign defined benefit pension plans, generally, our annual funding of these obligations is equal to the minimum amount legally required in each jurisdiction in which the plans operate. This annual amount is dependent upon numerous actuarial assumptions. For additional information, see Note 6: “Balance Sheet Information” and Note 13: “Income Taxes” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q.

Key Financing and Capital Events

Overview

For the past several years, we have undertaken various measures to secure liquidity to pursue acquisitions, repurchase shares of our common stock, reduce interest costs, amend existing key financing arrangements and, in some cases, extend a portion of our debt maturities to continue to provide us additional operating flexibility.

Cash Management

Our ability to manage cash is limited, as our primary cash inflows and outflows are dictated by the terms of our sales and supply agreements, contractual obligations, debt instruments and legal and regulatory requirements. While we have some flexibility with respect to the timing of capital equipment purchases, we must invest in capital equipment on a timely basis to allow us to maintain our manufacturing efficiency and support our platforms for new products.

Debt Guarantees and Related Covenants

As of June 29, 2018, we were in compliance with the indentures relating to our 1.00% Notes and 1.625% Notes and with covenants relating to our Term Loan “B” Facility, Revolving Credit Facility and our other debt agreements. Our 1.00% Notes are senior to the existing and future subordinated indebtedness of ON Semiconductor and its guarantor subsidiaries. Our 1.625% Notes rank equally in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future senior debt and are subordinated to all of the Company’s existing and future secured debt. See Note 7: “Long-Term Debt” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q for additional information.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The accompanying discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We believe certain of our accounting policies are critical to understanding our financial position and results of operations. Except with respect to our revenue recognition practices included in Note 1: “Background and Basis of Presentation” under the heading “Revenue Recognition Policy” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q, there have been no changes to the critical accounting policies as explained in Part 1, Item 7 of the 2017 Form10-K under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.”

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

For a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 3: “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. To mitigate these risks, we utilize derivative financial instruments. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

As of June 29, 2018, our long-term debt (including current maturities) totaled $2,964.1 million. We have no interest rate exposure to rate changes on our fixed rate debt, which totaled $2,048.1 million as of June 29, 2018. We do have interest rate exposure with respect to the $916.0 million balance of our variable interest rate debt outstanding as of June 29, 2018. A 50 basis point increase in interest rates, including the impact of interest rate swaps, would impact our expected annual interest expense for the next 12 months by approximately $4.6 million. However, some of this impact would be offset by additional interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents should rates on deposits and investments also increase. We entered into interest rate swaps to hedge some of the risk of variability in cash flows resulting from future interest payments on our variable interest rate debt under the Term Loan “B” Facility.

Except as described above, our exposure to market risk from December 31, 2017 to June 29, 2018 has not changed materially from the information provided in the 2017 Form10-K.

To ensure the adequacy and effectiveness of our foreign exchange hedge positions, we continually monitor our foreign exchange forward positions, both on a stand-alone basis and in conjunction with their underlying foreign currency exposures, from an accounting and economic perspective. However, given the inherent limitations of forecasting and the anticipatory nature of exposures intended to be hedged, we cannot provide any assurances that such programs will offset more than a portion of the adverse financial impact resulting from unfavorable movements in foreign exchange rates.

We are subject to risks associated with transactions that are denominated in currencies other than our functional currencies, as well as the effects of translating amounts denominated in a foreign currency to the U.S. dollar as a normal part of the reporting process. After the change in functional currency for some of our Japanese subsidiaries from Japanese Yen to the U.S. dollar, the remaining Japanese operations continue to utilize Japanese Yen as the functional currency, which results in a translation adjustment that is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

We enter into forward foreign currency contracts that economically hedge the gains and losses generated by there-measurement of certain recorded assets and liabilities in anon-functional currency. Changes in the fair value of these undesignated hedges are recognized in other income and expense immediately as an offset to the changes in the fair value of the assets or liabilities being hedged. The notional amount of foreign exchange contracts at June 29, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $86.4 million and $130.5 million, respectively. Our policies prohibit speculation on financial instruments, trading in currencies for which there are no underlying exposures or entering into trades for any currency to intentionally increase the underlying exposure.

Substantially all of our revenue is transacted in U.S. dollars. However, a significant amount of our operating expenditures and capital purchases are transacted in local currencies, including Japanese Yen, Euros, Korean Won, Malaysian Ringgit, Philippines Peso, Singapore Dollars, Swiss Francs, Chinese Renminbi and Czech Koruna. Due to the materiality of our transactions in these local currencies, our results are impacted by changes in currency exchange rates measured against the U.S. dollar. For example, we determined that based on a hypothetical weighted-average change of 10% in currency exchange rates, our results would have impacted our income before taxes by approximately $50.2 million as of June 29, 2018, assuming no offsetting hedge positions or correlated activities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We also carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules13a-15(f) and15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2018.

There have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules13a-15(f) and15d-15(f)) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2018 which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our business, financial condition and results of operations are subject to a number of trends, risks and uncertainties. We review and, where applicable, update our risk factors each quarter. Except for the trends, risks and uncertainties described below related to tariffs, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the 2017 Form10-K and in Part II, Item 1A of our quarterly report on Form10-Q for the period ended March 30, 2018 (the “First Quarter Form10-Q”).

Forward-Looking Statements

This Form10-Q includes “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included or incorporated in this Form10-Q could be deemed forward-looking statements, particularly statements about our plans, strategies and prospects under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Forward-looking statements are often characterized by the use of words such as “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” or “anticipates,” or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. All forward-looking statements in this Form10-Q are made based on our current expectations, forecasts, estimates and assumptions and involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause results or events to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Among these factors are our revenues and operating performance; economic conditions and markets (including current financial conditions); risks related to our ability to meet our assumptions regarding outlook for revenues and gross margin as a percentage of revenues; effects of exchange rate fluctuations; the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry; changes in demand for our products; changes in inventories at our customers and distributors; technological and product development risks; enforcement and protection of our IP rights and related risks; risks related to the security of our information systems and secured network; availability of raw materials, electricity, gas, water and other supply chain uncertainties; our ability to effectively shift production to other facilities when required in order to maintain supply continuity for our customers; variable demand and the aggressive pricing environment for semiconductor products; our ability to successfully manufacture in increasing volumes on a cost-effective basis and with acceptable quality for our current products; risks associated with our acquisition of Fairchild and with other acquisitions and dispositions, including our ability to realize the anticipated benefits of our acquisitions and dispositions; risks that acquisitions or dispositions may disrupt our current plans and operations, the risk of unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from acquisitions or dispositions and difficulties arising from integrating and consolidating acquired businesses, our timely filing of financial information with the SEC for acquired businesses and our ability to accurately predict the future financial performance of acquired businesses; competitor actions, including the adverse impact of competitor product announcements; pricing and gross profit pressures; loss of key customers; order cancellations or reduced bookings; changes in manufacturing yields; control of costs and expenses and realization of cost savings and synergies from restructurings; significant litigation; risks associated with decisions to expend cash reserves for various uses in accordance with our capital allocation policy such as debt prepayment, stock repurchases or acquisitions rather than to retain such cash for future needs; risks associated with our substantial leverage and restrictive covenants in our debt agreements that may be in place from time to time; risks associated with our worldwide operations, including changes in trade policies, foreign employment and labor matters associated with unions and collective bargaining arrangements, as well asman-made and/or natural disasters affecting our operations or financial results; the threat or occurrence of international armed conflict and terrorist activities both in the United States and internationally; risks of changes in U.S. or international tax rates or legislation, including the impact of the recent U.S. tax legislation; risks and costs associated with increased and new regulation of corporate governance and disclosure standards; risks related to new legal requirements; and risks involving environmental or other governmental regulation. Additional factors that could affect our future

56

results or events are described from time to time in our SEC reports. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update such information, except as may be required by law. Additional factors that could affect our future results or events are described under Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the 2017 Form10-K and Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the First Quarter Form10-Q and from time to time in our other SEC reports. You should carefully consider the trends, risks and uncertainties described in this Form10-Q, Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the 2017 Form10-K and Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in the First Quarter Form10-Q and subsequent reports filed with or furnished to the SEC before making any investment decision with respect to our securities. If any of these trends, risks or uncertainties actually occurs or continues, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely affected, the trading prices of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.

Changes in government trade policies could increase the cost of our products, which may materially adversely affect our sales or profitability.

The U.S. government recently proposed, among other actions, imposing new or higher tariffs on specified imported products originating from China in response to what it characterizes as unfair trade practices, and China has responded by proposing new or higher tariffs on specified products imported from the United States. In notices published on April 6, 2018 and June 20, 2018, the Office of the United States Trade Representative issued a determination and requests for public comment under Section 301 under the Trade Act of 1974 (the “Notices”) concerning the proposed imposition of an additional 25% tariff on specified products from China, which products comprised approximately $50.0 billion in estimated annual trade value for calendar year 2018. The list of products set forth in the Notices included transistors, diodes, integrated circuits and other products that we import from China as part of our supply chain. On July 6, 2018, the U.S. government imposed a 25% tariff on transistors from China. Further tariffs may be imposed in the future, including a tariff of 25% on diodes and integrated circuits, which may be imposed after the completion of a public comment period, which is expected to end on July 31, 2018. Tariffs on components that we import from China or other nations that have imposed, or may in the future impose, tariffs will cause our expenses to increase, which will adversely affect our profitability unless we are able to exclude our products from the tariffs or we raise prices for our products, which may result in our products becoming less attractive relative to products offered by our competitors. In addition, future actions or escalations by either the United States or China that affect trade relations may also impact our business, or that of our suppliers or customers, and we cannot provide any assurances as to whether such actions will occur or the form that they may take. To the extent that our sales or profitability are negatively affected by any such tariffs or other trade actions, our business and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Share Repurchase Program

During the quarter ended June 29, 2018, we repurchased 1.7 million shares of our common stock for $40.0 million under our share repurchase program.

Under the share repurchase program we announced in December 2014 (the “2014 Share Repurchase Program”), we may repurchase up to $1.0 billion (exclusive of fees, commissions and other expenses) of our common stock over a period of four years from December 1, 2014, subject to certain contingencies. We may repurchase our common stock from time to time in privately negotiated transactions or open market transactions, including pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule10b5-1 and Rule10b-18 of the Exchange Act, or by any combination of such methods or other methods. The timing of any repurchases and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including our stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, restrictions under our debt obligations, the availability of capital and other market and economic conditions. The 2014 Share Repurchase Program does not require us to purchase any particular amount of common stock and is subject to a variety of factors including the board’s discretion. As of June 29, 2018, $563.2 million of the total authorized amount remained available to repurchase common stock pursuant to the 2014 Share Repurchase Program.

See Note 8: “Earnings Per Share and Equity” of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form10-Q for further information on shares of common stock tendered to the Company by employees to satisfy applicable employee withholding taxes due upon vesting of RSUs and the 2014 Share Repurchase Program.
