Business

Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor platform solutions for communications, Internet of Things (“IoT”) applications, consumer, computing, industrial and automotive applications.

The Company’s standard products business includes its Display Solutions and Power Solutions business lines. The Company’s Display Solutions products provide panel display solutions to major suppliers of large and small rigid and flexible panel displays, and mobile, automotive applications and home appliances. The Company’s Power Solutions products include discrete and integrated circuit solutions for power management in communications, consumer, computing, servers, automotive, and industrial applications.

On September 1, 2020, the Company completed the sale of the Company’s Foundry Services Group business and its fabrication facility located in Cheongju, Korea, known as “Fab 4”. Following the consummation of the sale, and for up to three years, the Company is expected to provide transitional foundry services associated with its fabrication facility located in Gumi, Korea, known as “Fab 3”, at an agreed upon cost plus

mark-up

(the “Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services”).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These interim consolidated financial statements include normal recurring adjustments and the elimination of all intercompany accounts and transactions which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented. These interim consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 270, “Interim Reporting” and, accordingly, do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements, except for the changes below. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year or for any other periods.

The December 31, 2021 balance sheet data was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form

10-K

for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)

No. 2020-06,

“Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic

470-20)

and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic

815-40)”

(“ASU

2020-06”),

which updates various codification topics to simplify the accounting guidance for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, with a specific focus on convertible instruments and the derivative scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity and amends the diluted EPS computation for these instruments. The Company adopted ASU

2020-06

as of January 1, 2022, and the adoption of ASU

2020-06

did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options” (“ASU

ASU

clarifies the accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options so that the transaction should be treated as an exchange of the original instrument for a new instrument. The Company adopted ASU

2021-04

as of January 1, 2022, and the adoption of ASU

2021-04

did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

7. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company’s Korean subsidiary from time to time has entered into zero cost collar contracts to hedge the risk of changes in the functional-currency-equivalent cash flows attributable to currency rate changes on U.S. dollar denominated revenues.

Details of the zero cost collar contracts as of September 30, 2022 are as follows (in thousands):

Date of transaction	Total notional amount		Month of settlement

The severance benefits funded through the Company’s National Pension Fund and group severance insurance plan will be used exclusively for payment of severance benefits to eligible employees. These amounts have been deducted from the accrued severance benefit balance.

Beginning in July 2018, the Company contributes to certain severance insurance deposit accounts a certain percentage of severance benefits that are accrued for eligible employees for their services from January 1, 2018. These accounts consist of time deposits and other guaranteed principal and interest, and are maintained at insurance companies, banks or security companies for the benefit of employees. The Company deducts the contributions made to these severance insurance deposit accounts from its accrued severance benefits.

The Company is liable to pay the following future benefits to its

non-executive

employees upon their normal retirement age (in thousands):

non-executive

employees’ current salary rates and the number of service years that will be accumulated upon their retirement dates. These amounts do not include amounts that might be paid to

non-executive

employees that will cease working with the Company before their normal retirement ages.

14. Stock Repurchases

On December 21, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $75,000 thousand of the Company’s outstanding common stock and the Company entered into an accelerated stock repurchase agreement (the “ASR Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association (“JPM”) to repurchase an aggregate of $37,500 thousand of the Company’s common stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the ASR Agreement dated December 21, 2021, the Company paid to JPM $37,500 thousand in cash and received an initial delivery of 994,695 shares of its common stock in the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $20,073 thousand and a price per share of $20.18 on December 22, 2021.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company accounted for the remaining portion of the ASR Agreement as a forward contract indexed to its own common stock and recorded $17,427 thousand in additional

paid-in

capital in stockholders’ equity in its consolidated balance sheets.

In March 2022, the previously announced repurchase of $37,500 thousand of the Company’s common stock was completed pursuant to the ASR Agreement, and as a result, the Company additionally received 1,031,576 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $ 17,217 thousand at a price per share of $16.69, which was reclassified as treasury stock from additional

paid-in

capital in stockholder’s equity in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

On August 31, 2022, the Board of Directors has authorized an expansion of the Company’s previously announced stock repurchase program from $75,000 thousand to $87,500 thousand of the Company’s common stock.

In September 2022, the Company repurchased

324,643

shares of its common stock in the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $

3,638 

thousand and a price per share of $

11.21

under the stock repurchase program.

Rights Plan

The Company entered into a Rights Agreement, dated as of December 13, 2021, between the Company and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, as rights agent (the “Rights Agreement”), and the Board of Directors of the Company authorized and declared a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right (a “Right” and collectively, the “Rights”) for each share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, outstanding at the close of business on December 23, 2021. Each Right, once exercisable, will entitle the registered holder to purchase from the Company one

one-thousandth

of a share of Series

A-1

Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, at a purchase price of $80, subject to adjustment (the “Purchase Price”). The Rights are not presently exercisable and remain attached to the shares of common stock unless and until the occurrence of the earlier of the following (the “Distribution Date”): (i) the tenth day after the public announcement or disclosure by the Company or any person or group of affiliated or associated persons that any person or group of affiliated or associated persons has become an “Acquiring Person” by obtaining beneficial ownership of 12.5% (or 20% in the case of a “passive institutional investor,” which is defined generally as any person who has reported beneficial ownership of shares of common stock on Schedule 13G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock, subject to certain exceptions; or (ii) the tenth business day (or such later date as the Company’s Board of Directors may designate before a person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person) after (and not including) the commencement of, or first public announcement of the intent of any person to commence, a tender or exchange offer by any person or group of affiliated or associated persons, which would, if consummated, result in such person or group becoming an Acquiring Person. The Board of Directors may redeem all of the Rights for $0.001 per Right at any time before any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person. In addition, at any time on or after any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person (but before any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes the owner of 50% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock), the Board of Directors may exchange all or part of the Rights (other than the Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person and certain affiliated persons) for shares of common stock at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock per Right. The Rights will expire at the close of business on December 12, 2022, unless redeemed or exchanged prior to that time.

21

If any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, then, after the Distribution Date, each Right (other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person and certain affiliated persons or transferees thereof) will entitle the holder to purchase, for the Purchase Price, a number of shares of common stock having a market value of twice the Purchase Price. Alternatively, if, after any person or group of affiliated or associated persons becomes an Acquiring Person, (1) the Company is involved in a merger or other business combination in which the Company is not the surviving corporation or its common stock is changed into or exchanged for other securities or assets; or (2) the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries sell or otherwise transfer assets or earning power aggregating more than 50% of

the

assets or earning power of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, then each Right (other than Rights beneficially owned by the Acquiring Person and certain affiliated persons) will entitle the holder to purchase, for the Purchase Price, a number of shares of common stock of the other party to such business combination or sale (or in certain circumstances, an affiliate) having a market value of twice the Purchase Price.

16. Merger Agreement

On March 25, 2021, the Company, South Dearborn Limited, an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability (“Holdco”), formed by an affiliate of Wise Road Capital LTD (“Wise Road”), and Michigan Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco (“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”), providing for, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco.

The closing of the Merger was subject to certain conditions, including clearance by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) under the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended. The Company and Holdco were advised that CFIUS clearance of the Merger would not be forthcoming and received permission from CFIUS to withdraw their joint filing. In connection therewith, the Company and Holdco entered into a Termination and Settlement Agreement, dated December 13, 2021 (the “Termination Agreement”), pursuant to which Holdco agreed to pay

$70,200 thousand (the “Termination Fee”) to the Company on the terms specified in the Termination Agreement in satisfaction of Holdco’s obligation
topay a termination fee in connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement. On December 20, 2021, the Merger Agreement was terminated pursuant to the Termination Agreement after the Company’s receipt of a fee of $51,000 thousand from Holdco and a standby letter of credit, which
secures a deferred fee of $19,200 thousand from Holdco due on or before March 31, 2022. As of December 31, 2021, of the Termination Fee, $19,200 thousand deferred fee was recorded as other receivables. In connection therewith, the Company, Holdco and Wise Road entered into a First Amendment to the Termination Agreement, dated April 4, 2022, pursuant to which Holdco paid $14,400 thousand on April 4, 2022, with$4,800 thousand remaining outstanding. The Company, Holdco and Wise Road entered into a Second Amendment to the Termination Agreement, dated August 5, 2022 pursuant to which Holdco paid $3,000 thousand on August 5, 2022, of the deferred fee and payment of the remaining $1,800 thousand is
due on or before October 31, 2022.

 The Company, Holdco and Wise Road entered into a Letter Agreement, dated October 28, 2022 pursuant to which
the parties agreed to defer the remaining $1,800 thousand due on or before December 23,

2022. As of September 30, 2022, the remaining fee of $1,800 thousand was recorded as other receivables. Other than in respect of this receivable, the Company has no further relationship with Holdco.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred $1,552 thousand and $13,842 thousand, respectively, of professional fees and certain transaction related-expenses incurred in connection with the Merger, which were recognized in merger-related costs in the consolidated statements of operations.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

Advances to Suppliers

The Company, from time to time, may make advances in form of prepayments or deposits to suppliers, including external foundries, to meet its planned production. The Company recorded advances of $9,532 thousand and $1,708 thousand as other current assets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

COVID-19

Pandemic

In December 2019, a strain of coronavirus causing a disease known as

COVID-19

surfaced in Wuhan, China, resulting in significant disruptions among Chinese manufacturing and other facilities and travel throughout China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the

COVID-19

outbreak a pandemic. Governmental authorities throughout the world have implemented numerous containment measures, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines,

shelter-in-place

orders, and business restrictions and shutdowns, resulting in rapidly changing market and economic conditions. Although some of these restrictions and other containment measures have since been lifted or scaled back, ongoing surges of

COVID-19

have in some cases resulted in the

re-imposition

of certain restrictions and containment measures, and may continue to lead to other restrictions being

re-implemented

in the foreseeable future in response to efforts to reduce the rapid spread of

COVID-19.

The Company experienced some minor disruption in its Power Solutions business from assembly and test subcontractors located in China in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of the

COVID-19

pandemic. To date, its external Display Solutions business contractors and

sub-contractors

have not been materially impacted by the

COVID-19

pandemic. The Company is, however, unable to accurately predict the full impact that the

COVID-19

pandemic will have on its future results of operations due to numerous uncertainties. The extent to which the

COVID-19

pandemic impacts the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which, despite progress in vaccination efforts, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the

COVID-19

pandemic, such as new strains of the virus, including the Delta and Omicron variants and any future variants that may emerge, which may impact rates of infection and vaccination efforts, developments or perceptions regarding the safety of vaccines and the extent and effectiveness of actions to contain the

COVID-19

pandemic or treat its impact, including vaccination campaigns and lockdown measures, among others. In addition, recurrences or additional waves of

COVID-19

cases could cause other widespread or more severe impacts depending on where infection rates are highest. The Company cannot presently predict the scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, but if the Company or any of its customers and suppliers were to experience prolonged business shutdowns or other disruptions, its ability to conduct its business could be materially and negatively affected, which could have a material adverse impact on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company continues to closely monitor and evaluate the nature and scope of the impact of the

COVID-19

pandemic to its business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition, and may take further actions altering its business operations and managing its costs and liquidity that the Company deems necessary or appropriate to respond to this ongoing and uncertain global health crisis and the resulting global economic consequences.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Report.

Overview

We are a designer and manufacturer of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor platform solutions for communications, IoT applications, consumer, computing, industrial and automotive applications. We have a proven record with more than 40 years of operating history, a portfolio of approximately 1,100 registered patents and pending applications and extensive engineering and manufacturing process expertise.

Our standard products business includes our Display Solutions and Power Solutions business lines.

Our Display Solutions line of products provide flat panel display solutions to major suppliers of large and small flat panel displays. These products include source and gate drivers and timing controllers that cover a wide range of flat panel displays used in mobile communications, automobiles, entertainment devices, notebook PCs, monitors and liquid crystal display (LCD), organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and Micro light emitting diode (Micro LED) televisions. Our Display Solutions products support some of the industry’s most advanced display technologies, such as OLEDs, low temperature polysilicons thin film transistors (LTPS TFTs), as well as high-volume display technologies such as amorphous silicon thin film transistors (a-Si TFTs). Since 2007, we have designed and manufactured OLED display driver integrated circuit (IC) products. Our current portfolio of OLED solutions address a wide range of resolutions ranging from HD (High Definition) to WQHD (Wide Quadruple High Definition) for wide range of applications including smartphones, TVs, automotives and IT applications such as monitors, notebook PCs, tablet PCs as well as AR/VRs.

Our Power Solutions business line produces power management semiconductor products including discrete and integrated circuit solutions for power management in communications, consumer, computing, servers, automotive, and industrial applications. These products include metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs), insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), AC-DC/DC-DC converters, LED drivers, regulators and power management integrated circuits (PMICs) for a range of devices, including televisions, smartphones, mobile phones, wearable devices, desktop PCs, notebooks, tablet PCs, other consumer electrics, automotive, and industrial applications such as power suppliers, e-bikes, solar inverters, LED lighting and motor drives.

Our wide variety of analog and mixed-signal semiconductor products combined with our mature technology platform allow us to address multiple high-growth end markets and rapidly develop and introduce new products and services in response to market demands. Our design center and substantial manufacturing operation in Korea place us at the core of the global electronics device supply chain. We believe this enables us to quickly and efficiently respond to our customers’ needs, and allows us to better serve and capture additional demand from existing and new customers. Certain of our OLED products are produced using external 12-inch foundries. Through a strategic cooperation with external 12-inch foundries, we are managing to ensure outsourcing wafers at competitive price and produce quality products.

To maintain and increase our profitability, we must accurately forecast trends in demand for electronics devices that incorporate semiconductor products we produce. We must understand our customers’ needs as well as the likely end market trends and demand in the markets they serve. We must also invest in relevant research and development activities and purchase necessary materials on a timely basis to meet our customers’ demand while maintaining our target margins and cash flow.

The semiconductor markets in which we participate are highly competitive. The prices of our products tend to decrease regularly over their useful lives, and such price decreases can be significant as new generations of products are introduced by us or our competitors. We strive to offset the impact of declining selling prices for existing products through cost reductions and the introduction of new products that command selling prices above the average selling price of our existing products. In addition, we seek to manage our inventories and manufacturing capacity so as to mitigate the risk of losses from product obsolescence.

Demand for our products and services is driven by overall demand for communications, IoT, consumer and industrial products and can be adversely affected by periods of weak consumer and enterprise spending or by market share losses by our customers. In order to mitigate the impact of market volatility on our business, we continually strive to diversify our portfolio of products, customers, and target applications. We also expect that new competitors will emerge in these markets that may place increased pressure on the pricing for our products and services. While we believe we are well positioned competitively to compete in these markets and against these new competitors as a result of our long operating history, existing manufacturing capacity and our worldwide customer base, if we are not effective in competing in these markets, our operating results may be adversely affected.

25

Net sales for our standard products business are driven by design wins in which we are selected by an electronics original equipment manufacturer (OEM) or other potential customer to supply its demand for a particular product. A customer will often have more than one supplier designed into multi-source components for a particular product line. Once we have design wins and the products enter into mass production, we often specify the pricing of a particular product for a set period of time, with periodic discussions and renegotiations of pricing with our customers. In any given period, our net sales depend heavily upon the end-market demand for the goods in which our products are used, the inventory levels maintained by our customers and, in some cases, allocation of demand for components for a particular product among selected qualified suppliers.

In contrast to completely fabless semiconductor companies, our internal manufacturing capacity provides us with greater control over certain manufacturing costs and the ability to implement process and production improvements for our internally manufactured products, which can favorably impact gross profit margins. Our internal manufacturing capacity also allows for better control over delivery schedules, improved consistency over product quality and reliability and improved ability to protect intellectual property from misappropriation on these internally manufactured products. However, having internal manufacturing capacity exposes us to the risk of under-utilization of manufacturing capacity that results in lower gross profit margins, particularly during downturns in the semiconductor industry.

Our standard products business requires investments in capital equipment. Analog and mixed-signal manufacturing facilities and processes are typically distinguished by the design and process implementation expertise rather than the use of the most advanced equipment. Many of these processes also tend to migrate more slowly to smaller geometries due to technological barriers and increased costs. For example, some of our products use high-voltage technology that requires larger geometries and that may not migrate to smaller geometries for several years, if at all. As a result, our manufacturing base and strategy do not require substantial investment in leading edge process equipment for those products, allowing us to utilize our facilities and equipment over an extended period of time with moderate required capital investments. In addition, we are less likely to experience significant industry overcapacity, which can cause product prices to decline significantly. In general, we seek to invest in manufacturing capacity that can be used for multiple high-value applications over an extended period of time. In addition, we outsource manufacturing of those products which do require advanced technology and 12-inch and 8-inch wafer capacity, such as organic light emitting diodes (OLED). We believe this balanced capital investment strategy enables us to optimize our capital investments and facilitates more diversified product and service offerings.

Since 2007, we had designed and manufactured OLED display driver ICs in our internal manufacturing facilities. As we expanded our design capabilities to products that require lower geometries unavailable at our existing manufacturing facilities, we began outsourcing manufacturing of certain OLED display driver ICs to external 12-inch foundries starting in the second half of 2015 and we have started outsourcing 8-inch wafer for OLED TV IC after the sale of our fabrication facility located in Cheongju in 2020. This additional source of manufacturing is an increasingly important part of our supply chain management. By outsourcing manufacturing of OLED products to external foundries, we are able to adapt dynamically to changing customer requirements and address growing markets without substantial capital investments by us. However, relying on external foundries exposes us to the risk of being unable to secure manufacturing capacity, particularly under the current global shortage of foundry services. Although we are working strategically with external foundries to ensure long-term wafer capacity, if these efforts are unsuccessful, our ability to deliver products to our customers may be negatively impacted, which would adversely affect our relationship with customers and opportunities to secure new design-wins.

Our success going forward will depend upon our ability to adapt to future challenges such as the emergence of new competitors for our products and services or the consolidation of current competitors. Additionally, we must innovate to remain ahead of, or at least rapidly adapt to, technological breakthroughs that may lead to a significant change in the technology necessary to deliver our products and services. We believe that our established relationships and close collaboration with leading customers enhance our awareness of new product opportunities, market and technology trends and improve our ability to adapt and grow successfully.

Recent Developments

Expanded Stock Repurchase Program

On August 31, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized an expansion of the previously announced stock repurchase program from $75.0 million to $87.5 million of our common stock. We have already repurchased shares worth $37.5 million under the program through an accelerated stock repurchase agreement on December 21, 2021 with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association. The remaining $50.0 million of the expanded $87.5 million program will be repurchased in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. In connection with the repurchase program, we have established a stock trading plan with Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

In September 2022, we repurchased 324,643 shares of our common stock in the open market for an aggregate purchase price of $3.6 million and a price per share of $11.21 under the stock repurchase program.

Global Semiconductor Industry Trends

Increases in demand for semiconductor products resulted in a global shortage of manufacturing capacity in recent periods. As a result, we may experience increased costs to manufacture our products and may not be able to manufacture and deliver all of the orders placed by our customers. Specifically, if we are unable to secure manufacturing capacity from the external foundries we rely on, our ability to deliver products to our customers may be negatively impacted. Also, shortage of manufacturing capacity may lead to an increase in our manufacturing costs. Our principal pricing strategy is to pass on the increased manufacturing costs to our customers; however, we may not be fully able to do this in all cases. Total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were severely impacted by these persisting supply shortages, in particular for 28nm 12-inch OLED wafers, which impacted design-in projects from our large panel customer in Korea that are typically given 9 to 12 months in advance.

In an effort to minimize the potential adverse impact of the supply shortage, we are working strategically with certain external foundries to help ensure long-term wafer capacity. If these efforts are unsuccessful, however, such shortage could limit our ability to meet demand for our products in the future, which would adversely affect our reputation and competitive position, resulting in a negative impact on results of operations.

We are not able to foresee when the shortage of manufacturing capacity will subside, but we are beginning to see some indicators of improvement of such supply shortage situation. However, the global shortage for semiconductor products over the prior two years has led to overbooking backordered demand and oversupply. As a result, the current global macroeconomic conditions, including COVID-19 lockdowns in China, higher inflation and interest rates and uncertainty caused by the Russian-Ukraine war, have led to weaker end-market demand and an oversupply of inventory. We continue to monitor these trends and uncertainties, and any decline in end-market demand and increase in inventory levels could negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In December 2019, a strain of coronavirus causing a disease known as COVID-19 surfaced in Wuhan, China, resulting in significant disruptions among Chinese manufacturing and other facilities and travel throughout China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. Governmental authorities throughout the world have implemented numerous containment measures, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business restrictions and shutdowns, resulting in rapidly changing market and economic conditions. Although some of these restrictions and other containment measures have since been lifted or scaled back, ongoing surges of COVID-19 have, in some cases, resulted in the re-imposition of certain restrictions and containment measures, and may continue to lead to other restrictions being re-implemented in the foreseeable future in response to efforts to reduce the rapid spread of COVID-19.

We experienced some minor disruption in our Power Solutions business line from assembly and test subcontractors located in China in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, our external Display Solutions business line contractors and sub-contractors have not been materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We are, however, unable to accurately predict the full impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on future results of operations due to numerous uncertainties. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which, despite progress in vaccination efforts, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, such as new strains of the virus, including the Delta and Omicron variants and any future variants that may emerge, which may impact rates of infection and vaccination efforts, developments or perceptions regarding the safety of vaccines and the extent and effectiveness of actions to contain the COVID-19 pandemic or treat its impact, including vaccination campaigns and lockdown measures, among others. In addition, recurrences or additional waves of COVID-19 cases could cause other widespread or more

27

severe impacts depending on where infection rates are highest. We cannot presently predict the scope and severity of any potential business shutdowns or disruptions, but if we or any of our customers and suppliers were to experience prolonged business shutdowns or other disruptions, our ability to conduct our business could be materially and negatively affected, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We continue to closely monitor and evaluate the nature and scope of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to our business, consolidated results of operations, and financial condition, and may take further actions altering our business operations and managing our costs and liquidity that we deem necessary or appropriate to respond to this ongoing and uncertain global health crisis and the resulting global economic consequences.

We use the terms Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Operating Income and Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) in this Report. Adjusted EBITDA, as we define it, is a non-U.S. GAAP measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated as EBITDA (as defined below), adjusted to exclude (i) equity-based compensation expense, (ii) foreign currency loss, net, (iii) derivative valuation gain, net, (iv) inventory reserve related to Huawei impact of downstream trade restrictions, (v) Merger-related costs and (vi) other charges, net. EBITDA for the periods indicated is defined as net income (loss) before interest income, net, income tax expense (benefit), and depreciation and amortization.

See the footnotes to the table below for further information regarding these items. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance because:

• we believe that Adjusted EBITDA, by eliminating the impact of a number of items that we do not consider to be indicative of our core ongoing operating performance, provides a more comparable measure of our operating performance from period-to-period and may be a better indicator of future performance;

• we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is commonly requested and used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of a company as an enterprise level performance measure that eliminates the effects of financing, income taxes and the accounting effects of capital spending, as well as other one time or recurring items described above; and

• we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors, among other reasons, to assess a company’s period-to-period core operating performance and to understand and assess the manner in which management analyzes operating performance.

We use Adjusted EBITDA in a number of ways, including:

• for planning purposes, including the preparation of our annual operating budget;

• to evaluate the effectiveness of our enterprise level business strategies;

• in communications with our Board of Directors concerning our consolidated financial performance; and

• in certain of our compensation plans as a performance measure for determining incentive compensation payments.

We encourage you to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider them appropriate. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to income from continuing operations, cash flows from operating activities or net income, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

(a) This adjustment eliminates the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation expenses. Although we expect to incur non-cash equity-based compensation expenses in the future, these expenses do not generally require cash settlement, and, therefore, are not used by us to assess the profitability of our operations. We believe that analysts and investors will find it helpful to review our operating performance without the effects of these non-cash expenses as supplemental information.

(b) This adjustment mainly eliminates the impact of non-cash foreign currency translation associated with intercompany debt obligations and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables, as well as the cash impact of foreign currency transaction gains or losses on collection of such receivables and payment of such payables. Although we expect to incur foreign currency translation gains or losses in the future, we believe that analysts and investors will find it helpful to review our operating performance without the effects of these primarily non-cash gains or losses, which we cannot control. Additionally, we believe the isolation of this adjustment provides investors with enhanced comparability to prior and future periods of our operating performance results.

(c) This adjustment eliminates the impact of gain or loss recognized in income on derivatives, which represents derivatives value changes excluded from the risk being hedged. We enter into derivative transactions to mitigate foreign exchange risks. As our derivative transactions are limited to a certain portion of our expected cash flows denominated in U.S. dollars, and we do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes, we do not believe that these charges or gains are indicative of our core operating performance.

(d) For the three and nine months ended September 31, 2021, this adjustment eliminates the impact of a partial sales of inventories for which excess and obsolete reserves were previously recognized in relation to the U.S. Government’s export restrictions on Huawei, which is a downstream customer of some of our direct customers, as a portion of reserved inventory was subsequently sold to certain other customers. As this adjustment meaningfully impacted our operational results and are not expected to represent an ongoing operating expense subject to our ability to foresee and control, we believe our operating performance results are more meaningfully compared if this adjustment is excluded.

(e) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, this adjustment eliminates professional service fees and expenses incurred in connection with the contemplated Merger transaction (see “Note 16. Merger Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements under “Item 1. Interim Consolidated Financial Statements”). As this adjustment meaningfully impacted our operating results and are not expected to represent an ongoing operating expense or income to us, we believe our operating performance results are more usefully compared if this adjustment is excluded.

(f) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, this adjustment eliminates $2.8 million of one-time employee incentives, in each period, and professional service fees and expenses of $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, incurred in connection with certain strategic evaluations, both of which were offset in part by a $0.5 million gain on sale of certain legacy equipment of the closed back-end line in our fabrication facility in Gumi. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, this adjustment eliminates professional service fees and expenses of $0.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively, incurred in connection with the regulatory requests, both of which were offset in part by a $0.7 million legal settlement gain related to certain expenses incurred in prior periods in connection with our legacy Fab 4 (which was sold during the year ended December 31, 2020) and awarded in the third quarter. As these adjustments meaningfully impacted our operating results and are not expected to represent ongoing operating expenses to us, we believe our operating performance results are more usefully compared if these adjustments are excluded.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;

• although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often need to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of issuing equity-based compensation to our management team and employees;

• Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect the costs of holding certain assets and liabilities in foreign currencies; and

• other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.

We present Adjusted Operating Income as supplemental measures of our performance. We prepare Adjusted Operating Income by adjusting operating income (loss) to eliminate the impact of equity-based compensation expenses and other items that may be either one time or recurring that we do not consider to be indicative of our core ongoing operating performance. We believe that Adjusted Operating Income is useful to investors to provide a supplemental way to understand our underlying operating performance and allows investors to monitor and understand changes in our ability to generate income from ongoing business operations.

Adjusted Operating Income is not a measure defined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to operating income, income from continuing operations, cash flows from operating activities or net income, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We encourage you to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider them appropriate. Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted Operating Income differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted Operating Income, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. We define Adjusted Operating Income for the periods indicated as operating income adjusted to exclude (i) equity-based compensation expense (ii) inventory reserve related to Huawei impact of downstream trade restrictions, (iii) Merger-related costs and (iv) other charges, net.

The following table summarizes the adjustments to operating income that we make in order to calculate Adjusted Operating Income (Loss) for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2022			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022		Three Months Ended September 30, 2021			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
	(Dollars in millions)
Operating income (loss)	$	(10.0	)	$	4.9	$	20.0		$	19.5
Adjustments:
Equity-based compensation expense(a)		0.9			4.5		2.0			6.1
Inventory reserve related to Huawei impact of downstream trade restrictions(b)		—			—		(1.1	)		(1.1	)
Merger-related costs(c)		—			—		1.6			13.8
Other charges, net(d)		2.5			3.3		0.2			3.4
Adjusted Operating Income (Loss)	$	(6.6	)	$	12.7	$	22.7		$	41.7

(a) This adjustment eliminates the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation expenses. Although we expect to incur non-cash equity-based compensation expenses in the future, these expenses do not generally require cash settlement, and, therefore, are not used by us to assess the profitability of our operations. We believe that analysts and investors will find it helpful to review our operating performance without the effects of these non-cash expenses as supplemental information.

(b) For the three and nine months ended September 31, 2021, this adjustment eliminates the impact of a partial sales of inventories for which excess and obsolete reserves were previously recognized in relation to the U.S. Government’s export restrictions on Huawei, which is a downstream customer of some of our direct customers, as a portion of reserved inventory was subsequently sold to certain other customers. As this adjustment meaningfully impacted our operational results and are not expected to represent an ongoing operating expense subject to our ability to foresee and control, we believe our operating performance results are more meaningfully compared if this adjustment is excluded.

(c) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, this adjustment eliminates professional service fees and expenses incurred in connection with the contemplated Merger transaction (see “Note 16. Merger Agreement” to our consolidated financial statements under “Item 1. Interim Consolidated Financial Statements”). As this adjustment meaningfully impacted our operating results and are not expected to represent an ongoing operating expense or income to us, we believe our operating performance results are more usefully compared if this adjustment is excluded.

(d) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, this adjustment eliminates $2.8 million of one-time employee incentives, in each period, and professional service fees and expenses of $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, incurred in connection with certain strategic evaluations, both of which were offset in part by a $0.5 million gain on sale of certain legacy equipment of the closed back-end line in our fabrication facility in Gumi. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, this adjustment eliminates professional service fees and expenses of $0.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively, incurred in connection with the regulatory requests. As these adjustments meaningfully impacted our operating results and are not expected to represent ongoing operating expenses to us, we believe our operating performance results are more usefully compared if these adjustments are excluded.

We present Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) as a further supplemental measure of our performance. We prepare Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) by adjusting net income (loss) to eliminate the impact of a number of non-cash expenses and other items that may be either one time or recurring that we do not consider to be indicative of our core ongoing operating performance. We believe that Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) is particularly useful because it reflects the impact of our asset base and capital structure on our operating performance. We present Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) for a number of reasons, including:

• we use Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) in communications with our Board of Directors concerning our consolidated financial performance without the impact of non-cash expenses and the other items as we discussed below since we believe that it is a more consistent measure of our core operating results from period to period; and

• we believe that reporting Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) is useful to readers in evaluating our core operating results because it eliminates the effects of non-cash expenses as well as the other items we discuss below, such as foreign currency gains and losses, which are out of our control and can vary significantly from period to period.

Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) is not a measure defined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be construed as an alternative to income from continuing operations, cash flows from operating activities or net income, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We encourage you to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider them appropriate. Other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. In addition, in evaluating Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis), you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in this presentation. We define Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis); for the periods indicated as net income (loss), adjusted to exclude (i) equity-based compensation expense, (ii) foreign currency loss, net, (iii) derivative valuation loss (gain), net, (iv) inventory reserve related to Huawei impact of downstream trade restrictions, (v) Merger-related costs, (vi) other charges, net and (vii) income tax effect on non-GAAP adjustments.

The following table summarizes the adjustments to net income (loss) that we make in order to calculate Adjusted Net Income (including on a per share basis) from continuing operations for the periods indicated:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2022			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022			Three Months Ended September 30, 2021			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021

(a) This adjustment eliminates the impact of non-cash equity-based compensation expenses. Although we expect to incur non-cash equity-based compensation expenses in the future, these expenses do not generally require cash settlement, and, therefore, are not used by us to assess the profitability of our operations. We believe that analysts and investors will find it helpful to review our operating performance without the effects of these non-cash expenses as supplemental information.

(c) This adjustment eliminates the impact of gain or loss recognized in income on derivatives, which represents derivatives value changes excluded from the risk being hedged. We enter into derivative transactions to mitigate foreign exchange risks. As our derivative transactions are limited to a certain portion of our expected cash flows denominated in U.S. dollars, and we do not enter into derivative transactions for trading or speculative purposes, we do not believe that these charges or gains are indicative of our core operating performance.

As these adjustments meaningfully impacted our operating results and are not expected to represent ongoing operating expenses to us, we believe our operating performance results are more usefully compared if these adjustments are excluded.

(g) For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, this adjustment eliminates the income tax effect on non-GAAP adjustments of $2.3 million and $7.5 million, respectively, which mainly related to our Korean subsidiary using a calculation method that we compare the tax expense with and without the non-GAAP adjustments.

We believe that all adjustments to net income (loss) used to calculate Adjusted Net Income was applied consistently to the periods presented.

Adjusted Net Income has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

• Adjusted Net Income does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

• Adjusted Net Income does not consider the potentially dilutive impact of issuing equity-based compensation to our management team and employees;

• Adjusted Net Income does not reflect the costs of holding certain assets and liabilities in foreign currencies; and

• other companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted Net Income differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, Adjusted Net Income should not be considered as a measure of profitability of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and using Adjusted Net Income only as a supplement.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Net Sales. We derive substantially all of our sales (net of sales returns and allowances) from our standard products business. We outsource manufacturing of mobile OLED products to external 12-inch foundries. Our product inventory is primarily located in Korea and is available for drop shipment globally. Outside of Korea, we maintain limited product inventory, and our sales representatives generally relay orders to our factories in Korea for fulfillment. We have strategically located our sales offices near concentrations of major customers. Our sales offices are located in Korea, Japan, Taiwan and Greater China. Our network of authorized agents and distributors is in the United States, Europe and the Asia Pacific region.

We recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of the product, which is generally upon product shipment, delivery at the customer’s location or upon customer acceptance, depending on the terms of the arrangement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, we sold products to 169 and 175 customers, respectively, and our net sales to our ten largest customers represented 70% and 81% of our net sales—standard products business, respectively.

We will provide the Transitional Fab 3 Foundry Services up to September 1, 2023 at an agreed upon cost plus a mark-up.

Gross Profit. Our overall gross profit generally fluctuates as a result of changes in overall sales volumes and in the average selling prices of our products and services. Other factors that influence our gross profit include changes in product mix, the introduction of new products and services and subsequent generations of existing products and services, shifts in the utilization of our manufacturing facility and the yields achieved by our manufacturing operations, changes in material, labor and other manufacturing costs including outsourced manufacturing expenses, and variation in depreciation expense.

Average Selling Prices. Average selling prices for our products tend to be highest at the time of introduction of new products which utilize the latest technology and tend to decrease over time as such products mature in the market and are replaced by next generation products. We strive to offset the impact of declining selling prices for existing products through our product development activities and by introducing new products that command selling prices above the average selling price of our existing products. In addition, we seek to manage our inventories and manufacturing capacity so as to preclude losses from product and productive capacity obsolescence.

Material Costs. Our material costs consist of costs of raw materials, such as silicon wafers, chemicals, gases and tape and packaging supplies. We use processes that require specialized raw materials, such as silicon wafers, that are generally available from a limited number of suppliers. If demand increases or supplies decrease, the costs of our raw materials could increase significantly.

Labor Costs. A significant portion of our employees are located in Korea. Under Korean labor laws, most employees and certain executive officers with one or more years of service are entitled to severance benefits upon the termination of their employment based on their length of service and rate of pay. As of September 30, 2022, approximately 97% of our employees were eligible for severance benefits.

Depreciation Expense. We periodically evaluate the carrying values of long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, as well as the related depreciation periods. We depreciated our property, plant and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of our assets. Depreciation rates vary from 30-40 years on buildings to 5 to 12 years for certain equipment and assets. Our evaluation of carrying values is based on various analyses including cash flow and profitability projections. If our projections indicate that future undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying values of the related long-lived assets, the carrying value of the assets is impaired and will be reduced, with the reduction charged to expense so that the carrying value is equal to fair value.

Selling Expenses. We sell our products worldwide through a direct sales force as well as a network of sales agents and representatives to OEMs, including major branded customers and contract manufacturers, and indirectly through distributors. Selling expenses consist primarily of the personnel costs for the members of our direct sales force, a network of sales representatives and other costs of distribution. Personnel costs include base salary, benefits and incentive compensation.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist of the costs of various corporate operations, including finance, legal, human resources and other administrative functions. These expenses primarily consist of payroll-related expenses, consulting and other professional fees and office facility-related expenses.

Research and Development. The rapid technological change and product obsolescence that characterize our industry require us to make continuous investments in research and development. Product development time frames vary but, in general, we incur research and development costs one to two years before generating sales from the associated new products. These expenses include personnel costs for members of our engineering workforce, cost of photomasks, silicon wafers and other non-recurring engineering charges related to product design. Additionally, we develop base line process technology through experimentation and through the design and use of characterization wafers that help achieve commercially feasible yields for new products. The majority of research and development expenses of our display business are material and design-related costs for OLED display driver IC product development involving 28-nanometer or finer processes. The majority of research and development expenses of our power business are certain equipment, material and design-related costs for power discrete products and material and design-related costs for power IC products. Power IC uses standard BCD process technologies which can be sourced from multiple foundries.

34

Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates on Reported Results of Operations. Historically, a portion of our revenues and cost of sales and greater than the majority of our operating expenses have been denominated in non-U.S. currencies, principally the Korean won, and we expect that this will remain true in the future. Because we report our results of operations in U.S. dollars converted from our non-U.S. revenues and expenses based on monthly average exchange rates, changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar could materially impact our reported results of operations and distort period to period comparisons. In particular, because of the difference in the amount of our consolidated revenues and expenses that are in U.S. dollars relative to Korean won, depreciation in the U.S. dollar relative to the Korean won could result in a material increase in reported costs relative to revenues, and therefore could cause our profit margins and operating income to appear to decline materially, particularly relative to prior periods. The converse is true if the U.S. dollar were to appreciate relative to the Korean won. Moreover, our foreign currency gain or loss would be affected by changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar as a substantial portion of non-cash translation gain or loss is associated with the intercompany long-term loans to our Korean subsidiary, which is denominated in U.S. dollars. As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding intercompany loan balance including accrued interest between our Korean subsidiary and our Dutch subsidiary was $356.7 million. As a result of such foreign currency fluctuations, it could be more difficult to detect underlying trends in our business and results of operations. In addition, to the extent that fluctuations in currency exchange rates cause our results of operations to differ from our expectations or the expectations of our investors, the trading price of our stock could be adversely affected.

From time to time, we may engage in exchange rate hedging activities in an effort to mitigate the impact of exchange rate fluctuations. Our Korean subsidiary enters into foreign currency zero cost collar contracts in order to mitigate a portion of the impact of U.S. dollar-Korean won exchange rate fluctuations on our operating results. Obligations under these foreign currency zero cost collar contracts must be cash collateralized if our exposure exceeds certain specified thresholds. These zero cost collar contracts may be terminated by a counterparty in a number of circumstances, including if our total cash and cash equivalents is less than $30.0 million at the end of a fiscal quarter unless a waiver is obtained from the counterparty. We cannot assure that any hedging technique we implement will be effective. If our hedging activities are not effective, changes in currency exchange rates may have a more significant impact on our results of operations. See “Note 7. Derivative Financial Instruments” to our consolidated financial statements under “Item 1. Interim Consolidated Financial Statements” for additional information regarding our foreign exchange hedging activities.

Foreign Currency Gain or Loss. Foreign currency translation gains or losses on transactions by us or our subsidiaries in a currency other than our or our subsidiaries’ functional currency are included in foreign currency gain (loss), net in our statements of operations. A substantial portion of this net foreign currency gain or loss relates to non-cash translation gain or loss related to the principal balance of intercompany balances at our Korean subsidiary that are denominated in U.S. dollars. This gain or loss results from fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Korean won and U.S. dollar.

Income Taxes. We record our income taxes in each of the tax jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves using an asset and liability approach whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded for differences in the financial reporting bases and tax basis of our assets and liabilities. We exercise significant management judgment in determining our provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities. We assess whether it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets existing at the period-end will be realized in future periods. In such assessment, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would adjust the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

We are subject to income- or non-income-based tax examinations by tax authorities of the U.S., Korea and multiple other foreign jurisdictions for all open tax years. Significant estimates and judgments are required in determining our worldwide provision for income- or non-income based taxes. Some of these estimates are based on interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations. The ultimate amount of tax liability may be uncertain as a result.

Capital Expenditures. We primarily invest in manufacturing equipment, software design tools and other tangible assets mainly for fabrication facility maintenance, capacity expansion and technology improvement. Capacity expansions and technology improvements typically occur in anticipation of increases in demand. We typically pay for capital expenditures in partial installments with portions due on order, delivery and final acceptance. Our capital expenditures mainly include our payments for the purchase of property, plant and equipment.

Inventories. We monitor our inventory levels in light of product development changes and market expectations. We may be required to take additional charges for quantities in excess of demand, cost in excess of market value and product age. Our analysis may take into consideration historical usage, expected demand, anticipated sales price, new product development schedules, the effect new products might have on the sales of existing products, product age, customer design activity, customer concentration and other factors. These forecasts require us to estimate our ability to predict demand for current and future products and compare those estimates with our current inventory levels and inventory purchase commitments. Our forecasts for our inventory may differ from actual inventory use.

Revenues

Total revenues were $71.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a $55.8 million, or 43.9%, decrease compared to $127.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenue related to our standard products business as described below.

The standard products business. Net sales from our standard products business were $62.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a $54.6 million, or 46.5%, decrease compared to $117.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The significant decrease in net sales from our Display Solutions business line was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue from our mobile OLED display driver ICs stemming from a lower customer demand resulting from a slowdown in the Chinese smartphone market, and a lack of secured manufacturing capacity (in particular for 28nm 12-inch OLED wafers) at external 12-inch foundries, which was offset in part by a higher demand for our auto-LCD display driver ICs and OLED TV display driver ICs. The decrease in net sales from our Power Solutions business line was attributable to a lower demand for MOSFETs primarily for smartphone and e-bikes, which was affected by COVID-19 lockdowns in China. This decrease was almost offset by a strong demand for IGBTs mainly for solar inverters.

The transitional Fab 3 foundry services. Net sales from the transitional Fab 3 foundry services were $8.4 million and $9.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Gross Profit

Total gross profit was $17.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $46.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, a $29.4 million, or 63.0%, decrease. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 24.2% compared to 36.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to our standard products business as further described below.

The standard products business. Gross profit from our standard products business was $17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which represented a $28.5 million, or 62.3%, decrease from gross profit of $45.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to a significant decrease in net sales from our Display Solutions business line as explained above. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 27.5% compared to 39.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to certain inventory reserve and scrap cost related to 12-inch display products resulted from lower demand for China smartphones and a lower utilization rate of our internal fabrication facility. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, a partial sales of inventories for which excess and obsolete reserves were previously recognized in relation to the U.S. Government’s export restrictions on Huawei, which is a downstream customer of some of our direct customers, favorably affected both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales, as such reserved inventory was subsequently sold to certain other customers in the third quarter of 2021.

Net Sales – Standard Products Business by Geographic Region

We report net sales – standard products business by geographic region based on the location to which the products are billed. The following table sets forth our net sales—standard products business by geographic region and the percentage of total net sales—standard products business represented by each geographic region for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2022					Three Months Ended September 30, 2021
	Amount		% of Net sales – standard products business			Amount		% of Net sales – standard products business			Change Amount

Net sales – standard products business in Korea for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased from $29.7 million to $23.9 million compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, or by $5.8 million, or 19.5%, primarily due to a decrease in revenue from our mobile OLED display driver ICs and weaker demand for power products such as MOSFETs, including high-end MOSFETs, primarily for TVs and smartphone applications, which was offset in part by higher demand for OLED TV display driver ICs.

Net sales – standard products business in Asia Pacific (other than Korea) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to $34.6 million from $84.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2021, or by $49.6 million, or 58.9%, primarily due to a decrease in revenue from our mobile OLED display driver ICs stemming from a lower customer demand resulting from a slowdown in the Chinese smartphone market, and a lack of secured manufacturing capacity (in particular for 28nm 12-inch OLED wafers) at external 12-inch foundries, which was offset in part by a higher demand for power products such as IGBTs mainly for solar inverters. The increased demand for our auto-LCD display driver ICs also favorably affected in this quarter.

Operating Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $11.4 million, or 16.0% of total revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $12.6 million, or 9.9% of total revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease of $1.1 million, or 9.1%, was primarily attributable to a decrease in estimated employee compensation reflecting the current year’s financial performance.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses were $13.3 million, or 18.7% of total revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $12.3 million, or 9.7% of total revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase of $1.1 million, or 8.6%, was primarily attributable to increase in outside service fees, including those for software design tools, and variable overhead expenses.

Merger-related Costs. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded $1.6 million of professional service fees and expenses incurred in connection with the contemplated Merger transaction.

Other Charges, Net. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded $2.8 million of one-time employee incentives and $0.2 million of professional service fees and expenses incurred in connection with certain strategic evaluations, which was offset in part by a $0.5 million gain on sale of certain legacy equipment of the closed back-end line in our fabrication facility in Gumi. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded $0.2 million of non-recurring professional service fees and expenses incurred in connection with the regulatory requests.

39

Operating Income (Loss)

As a result of the foregoing, operating loss was $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to operating income of $20.0 million the three months ended September 30, 2021. As discussed above, the decrease in operating income of $30.0 million resulted primarily from a $29.4 million decrease in gross profit, a $2.3 million increase in other charge, net, and a $1.1 million increase in research and development expenses. This increase was offset in part by a $1.6 million decrease in Merger-related costs and a $1.1 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses.

40

Other Income (Expense)

Interest Expense. Interest expenses was $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

Foreign Currency Loss, Net. Net foreign currency loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $12.8 million compared to net foreign currency loss of $7.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The net foreign currency loss for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was due to the depreciation in value of the Korean won relative to the U.S. dollar during the period.

A substantial portion of our net foreign currency gain or loss is non-cash translation gain or loss associated with intercompany long-term loans to our Korean subsidiary, which are denominated in U.S. dollars, and are affected by changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar. As of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the outstanding intercompany loan balances, including accrued interest between our Korean subsidiary and our Dutch subsidiary, were $357 million and $393 million, respectively. Foreign currency translation gain or loss from intercompany balances were included in determining our consolidated net income since the intercompany balances were not considered long-term investments in nature because management intended to settle these intercompany balances at their respective maturity dates.

Others, Net. Others were primarily comprised of interest income, rental income, and gains and losses from valuation of derivatives which were designated as hedging instruments. Others for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was $2.0 million and $1.6 million, respectively. In the third quarter of 2021, others, net included a $0.7 million legal settlement gain related to certain expenses incurred in prior periods in connection with our legacy Fab 4 (which was sold during the year ended December 31, 2020) and awarded in the current quarter.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

Income tax benefit was $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, which was primarily attributable to the decrease in the pre-tax income due to foreign currency translation losses associated with intercompany long-term loans in our Korean subsidiary for the respective period.

Income tax expense was $3.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, which was primarily attributable to interest on intercompany loan balances and the estimated taxable income for the respective period in our Korean subsidiary, combined with its ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards up to 60%.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the foregoing, a net loss of $17.2 million was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to a net income of $10.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. As discussed above, the $28.0 million decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a $30.0 million decrease in operating income and $5.2 million increase in net foreign currency loss, which was offset in part by a $7.1 million decrease in income tax expense.

Revenues

Total revenues were $276.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a $87.2 million, or 24.0%, decrease compared to $363.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in revenue related to our standard products business as described below.

The standard products business. Net sales from our standard products business were $248.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, an $85.5 million, or 25.6%, decrease compared to $333.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The significant decrease in net sales from our Display Solutions business line was primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue from our mobile OLED display driver ICs stemming from a lower customer demand resulting from a slowdown in the Chinese smartphone market, and a lack of secured manufacturing capacity (in particular for 28nm 12-inch OLED wafers) at external 12-inch foundries, which was offset in part by a higher demand for our OLED TV display driver ICs and auto-LCD display driver ICs. The increase in net sales from our Power Solutions business line was attributable to a strong demand for power products such as MOSFETs, including high-end MOSFETs, primarily for TVs and e-bikes, and IGBTs mainly for solar inverters.

The transitional Fab 3 foundry services. Net sales from the transitional Fab 3 foundry services were $28.6 million and $30.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Gross Profit

Total gross profit was $85.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $114.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a $29.8 million, or 25.9%, decrease. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased to 30.8% compared to 31.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in both gross profit and gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to our standard products business as further described below.

The standard products business. Gross profit from our standard products business was $82.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which represented a $29.4 million, or 26.2%, decrease from gross profit of $112.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit was primarily attributable to a significant decrease in net sales from our Display Solutions business line as explained above. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 decreased slightly to 33.4% compared to 33.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to certain inventory reserve and scrap cost related to 12-inch display products resulted from lower demand for China smartphones, which was offset in part by an improved product mix and an increase in average selling price benefited from the favorable pricing environment, primarily for our Power Solutions business line.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest Expense. Interest expenses was $0.9 million and $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

Foreign Currency Loss, Net. Net foreign currency loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $20.5 million compared to net foreign currency loss of $12.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The net foreign currency loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was due to the depreciation in value of the Korean won relative to the U.S. dollar during the period.

A substantial portion of our net foreign currency gain or loss is non-cash translation gain or loss associated with intercompany long-term loans to our Korean subsidiary, which are denominated in U.S. dollars, and are affected by changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar. As of September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the outstanding intercompany loan balances, including accrued interest between our Korean subsidiary and our Dutch subsidiary, were $357 million and $393 million, respectively. Foreign currency translation gain or loss from intercompany balances were included in determining our consolidated net income since the intercompany balances were not considered long-term investments in nature because management intended to settle these intercompany balances at their respective maturity dates.

Others, Net. Others were primarily comprised of interest income, rental income and gains and losses from valuation of derivatives which were designated as hedging instruments. Others for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 was $4.2 million and $2.8 million, respectively. In the third quarter of 2021, others, net included a $0.7 million legal settlement gain related to certain expenses incurred in prior periods in connection with our legacy Fab 4 (which was sold during the year ended December 31, 2020) and awarded in the current quarter

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

Income tax benefit was $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was primarily attributable to the decrease in the pre-tax income due to foreign currency translation losses associated with intercompany long-term loans in our Korean subsidiary for the respective period.

Income tax expense was $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, which was primarily attributable to interest on intercompany loan balances and the estimated taxable income for the respective period in our Korean subsidiary, combined with its ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards up to 60%.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the foregoing, a net loss of $11.0 million was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to a net income of $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As discussed above, the $14.1 million decrease in net income was primarily attributable to a $14.7 million decrease in operating income and an $8.5 million increase in net foreign currency loss, which was offset in part by a $7.4 million decrease in income tax expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal capital requirements are to fund sales and marketing, invest in research and development and capital equipment, and to fund working capital needs. We calculate working capital as current assets less current liabilities.

Our principal sources of liquidity are our cash, cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and financing activities. Our ability to manage cash and cash equivalents may be limited, as our primary cash flows are dictated by the terms of our sales and supply agreements, contractual obligations, debt instruments and legal and regulatory requirements. From time to time, we may sell accounts receivable to third parties under factoring agreements or engage in accounts receivable discounting to facilitate the collection of cash. In addition, from time to time, we may make payments to our vendors on extended terms with their consent. As of September 30, 2022, we did not have any accounts payable on extended terms or payment deferment with our vendors.

As of June 29, 2018, our Korean subsidiary entered into an arrangement whereby it (i) acquired a water treatment facility from SK hynix for $4.2 million to support our fabrication facility in Gumi, Korea, and (ii) subsequently sold the water treatment facility for $4.2 million to a third party management company that we engaged to run the facility for a 10-year term beginning July 1, 2018. As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding obligation of this arrangement is approximately $22.7 million for remaining service term through 2028.

As of September 30, 2022, cash and cash equivalents held by our Korean subsidiary were $241.3 million, which represents 96% of our total cash and cash equivalents on a consolidated basis. We currently believe that we will have sufficient cash reserves from cash on hand and expected cash from operations to fund our operations as well as capital expenditures for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

Working Capital

Our working capital balance as of September 30, 2022 was $304.7 million compared to $323.6 million as of December 31, 2021. The $19.0 million decrease was primarily attributable to a $28.7 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents and a $17.6 million decrease in other receivable mainly resulted from receipt of reverse termination fee, which was offset in part by a $11.0 million decrease in account payables, a $12.3 million net increase in hedge collateral and a $7.8 million increase in advance payments to certain suppliers, including external foundries to meet our planned production.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash inflow provided by operating activities totaled $50.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $30.0 million of cash inflow provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The net operating cash inflow for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 reflects our net loss of $11.0 million, as adjusted favorably by $95.6 million, which mainly consisted of depreciation and amortization, provision for severance benefits, stock-based compensation and net foreign currency loss, and net unfavorable impact of $34.3 million from changes of operating assets and liabilities.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash outflow used in investing activities totaled $25.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $14.4 million of cash outflow used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The $11.4 million increase in cash outflow was primarily attributable to a $13.7 million net increase in hedge collateral, which was offset in part by a $1.6 million decrease in purchase of property, plant and equipment.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash outflow used in financing activities totaled $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $1.8 million of cash inflow provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The financing cash outflow for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was primarily attributable to a payment of $3.2 million for the repurchases of our common stock in September 2022 pursuant to our stock repurchase program and a payment of $1.8 million for the repurchase of our common stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units, which was offset in part by $1.8 million of proceeds received from the issuance of common stock in connection with the exercise of stock options. The financing cash inflow for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to $3.9 million of proceeds received from the issuance of common stock in connection with the exercise of stock options, which was offset in part by a payment of $1.7 million for the repurchase of our common stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the vesting of restricted stock units.

47

Capital Expenditures

We routinely make capital expenditures for fabrication facility maintenance, enhancement of our existing facility and reinforcement of our global research and development capability. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment were $11.8 million, a $1.6 million, or 11.6%, decrease from $13.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were related to meeting our customer demand and supporting technology and capacity improvement at our fabrication facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods and the related disclosures in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

We believe that our significant accounting policies, which are described further in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, or our 2021 Form 10-K, are critical due to the fact that they involve a high degree of judgment and estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. We base these estimates and judgments on historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and other assumptions and information that we believe to be reasonable. Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. Accordingly, these estimates may change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the business environment in which we operate changes.

A description of our critical accounting policies that involve significant management judgement appears in our 2021 Form 10-K, under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Reports of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.” There have been no other material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to our critical accounting policies and estimates included in our 2021 Form 10-K.

Interim Consolidated Financial Statements—Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—Note 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies” in this Report.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to the market risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market conditions, primarily from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. In the normal course of our business, we are subject to market risks associated with currency movements on our assets and liabilities.

Foreign Currency Exposures

We have exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on net income from our subsidiaries denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, as our foreign subsidiaries in Korea, Taiwan, China, Japan and Hong Kong use local currency as their functional currency. From time to time these subsidiaries have cash and financial instruments in local currency. The amounts held in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and China are not material in regards to foreign currency movements. However, based on the cash and financial instruments balance at September 30, 2022 for our Korean subsidiary, a 10% devaluation of the Korean won against the U.S. dollar would have resulted in a decrease of $1.2 million in our U.S. dollar financial instruments and cash balances.

See “Note 7. Derivative Financial Instruments” to our consolidated financial statements under “Item 1. Interim Consolidated Financial Statements” and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations—Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates on Reported Results of Operations” for additional information regarding our foreign exchange hedging activities.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information 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.

In connection with the preparation of this Report, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of September 30, 2022, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
