(1)

The maturities of long-term marketable securities primarily range from one to four years.
The fair value of Level 1 securities is measured based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
(3)
The fair value of Level 2 securities is measured using information obtained from pricing services, which obtain quoted market prices for
similar instruments, non-binding market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data, or various othermethodologies, to determine the appropriate value at the measurement date. We perform supplemental analysis to validate information
obtained from these pricing services. No adjustments were made to the fair values indicated by such pricing information as of March 2,2023 or September 1, 2022.
(4)
Restricted cash is included in other current assets and other noncurrent assets and primarily relates to certain government incentives
received prior to being earned and for which restrictions lapse upon achieving certain performance conditions or which will be returned if
performance conditions are not met.
(2)

Gross realized gains and losses from sales of available-for-sale securities were not significant for any period presented.

Non-marketable Equity Investments
In addition to the amounts included in the table above, we had $218 million and $222 million of non-marketable equity investments without areadily determinable fair value that were included in other noncurrent assets as of March 2, 2023 and September 1, 2022, respectively.

In 2021, we entered into fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps on the 2027 Notes with an aggregate $900 million notional amount equal tothe principal amount of the 2027 Notes. The resulting variable interest paid is at a rate equal to SOFR plus approximately 3.33%. The
fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps are accounted for as fair value hedges, as a result, the carrying values of our 2027 Notes reflect
adjustments in fair value.

Term Loan Agreements
On November 3, 2022, we entered into a term loan agreement consisting of three tranches and borrowed $2.60 billion in aggregate principal
amount, including $927 million due November 3, 2025; $746 million due November 3, 2026; and $927 million due November 3, 2027 (the“Term Loan Agreement”). We incurred aggregate fees of $6 million in connection with these borrowings.
On January 5, 2023, we amended the Term Loan Agreement and borrowed an additional $600 million in aggregate principal amount,
including $125 million due November 3, 2025, $250 million due November 3, 2026, and $225 million due November 3, 2027. The additionalborrowings have terms that are identical to, and will be treated as a single class with, the three original tranches.

16 | 2023 Q2 10-Q

Table of Contents

The 2026 Term Loan A and 2027 Term Loan A each require equal quarterly installment payments in an amount equal to 1.25% of the original
principal amount. The 2025 Term Loan A does not require quarterly installment payments. Borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement will
generally bear interest at adjusted term SOFR plus an applicable interest rate margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.00%, varying by tranche anddepending on our corporate credit ratings. The Term Loan Agreement requires us to maintain, on a consolidated basis, a leverage ratio of
total indebtedness to adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Term Loan Agreement and calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, not toexceed 3.25 to 1.00, except as described below.
On March 27, 2023, we further amended the Term Loan Agreement to provide that in lieu of the foregoing leverage ratio, during the fourth
quarter of 2023 and each quarter of 2024, we will be required to maintain, on a consolidated basis, a net leverage ratio of total net
indebtedness to adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Term Loan Agreement and calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, not toexceed 3.25 to 1.00, or alternatively, for up to three of such five quarters, we may elect to comply with a requirement of minimum liquidity, as
defined in the Term Loan Agreement, of not less than $5.0 billion. Each of the leverage ratio and net leverage ratio maximums, as applicable,
is subject to a temporary four quarter increase in such ratio to 3.75 to 1.00 following certain material acquisitions. Our obligations under theTerm Loan Agreement are unsecured.
On March 27, 2023, we also amended the agreement governing the 2024 Term Loan A to align the leverage ratio covenant with thecorresponding covenant in the Term Loan Agreement described above.

2029 B Notes and 2033 Notes
On October 31, 2022, we issued $750 million principal amount of senior unsecured 2029 B Notes in a public offering. The 2029 B Notes bearinterest at a rate of 6.750% per year and will mature on November 1, 2029. Issuance costs and debt discount for these notes were $6 million.
On February 9, 2023, we issued an additional $500 million principal amount of 2029 B Notes at a $22 million premium. The additional notes
have terms that are identical to the terms of the original 2029 B Notes other than the original offering price. Also on February 9, 2023, weissued $750 million principal amount of senior unsecured 2033 Notes. The 2033 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year and will
mature on February 9, 2033. Aggregate issuance costs for the February 9, 2023 offerings were $7 million.
We may redeem the 2029 B Notes and the 2033 Notes (the “Notes”), in whole or in part, at our option prior to their maturity dates at aredemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed and (ii) the present value of theremaining scheduled payments of principal and interest, plus accrued interest in each case. We may also redeem the Notes, in whole or inpart, at a price equal to par either two or three months prior to maturity in accordance with the terms of the Notes.
The Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit, in certain circumstances, our ability and/or the ability of our restrictedsubsidiaries (which are generally domestic subsidiaries in which we own at least 80% of the voting stock and which own principal property, as
defined in the indenture governing such notes) to (1) create or incur certain liens; (2) enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions; and(3) consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer, or lease all or substantially all of our properties and assets, to another entity.
These covenants are subject to a number of limitations and exceptions. Additionally, if a change of control triggering event occurs, as definedin the indenture governing the Notes, we will be required to offer to purchase such notes at 101% of the outstanding aggregate principal
amount plus accrued interest up to the purchase date.

Revolving Credit Facility
As of March 2, 2023, $2.50 billion was available to us under the Revolving Credit Facility and no amounts were outstanding. Any amounts
outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility would mature in May 2026 and amounts borrowed may be prepaid any time without penalty.
Any amounts drawn under the Revolving Credit Facility would generally bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.00% to 1.75%,
depending on our corporate credit ratings. The credit facility agreement provides for a transition to SOFR or other alternate benchmark rate
upon the retirement of LIBOR in 2023.
On March 27, 2023, we amended the agreement governing the Revolving Credit Facility to align the leverage ratio covenant with thecorresponding covenants in the Term Loan Agreement and 2024 Term Loan A described above.

Table of Contents

On April 3, 2018, MSS was served with another patent infringement complaint filed by Jinhua and an additional complaint filed by UMC in the
Fuzhou Court. The additional complaints allege that MSS infringes two Chinese patents by manufacturing and selling certain Crucial MX300
SSDs. The complaint filed by UMC seeks an order requiring MSS to destroy inventory of the accused products and equipment for
manufacturing the accused products in China; to stop manufacturing, using, selling, and offering for sale the accused products in China; andto pay damages of 90 million Chinese yuan plus court fees incurred. The complaint filed by Jinhua seeks an order requiring MSS to destroy
inventory of the accused products and equipment for manufacturing the accused products in China; to stop manufacturing, using, selling, andoffering for sale the accused products in China; and to pay damages of 98 million Chinese yuan plus court fees incurred. On November 26,
2021, pursuant to a settlement agreement between UMC and Micron, UMC filed an application to the Fuzhou Court to withdraw its complaint
against MSS.
On July 5, 2018, MXA and MSS were notified that the Fuzhou Court granted a preliminary injunction against those entities that enjoins themfrom manufacturing, selling, or importing certain Crucial and Ballistix-branded DRAM modules and solid-state drives in China. We arecomplying with the ruling and have requested the Fuzhou Court to reconsider or stay its decision.
On May 4, 2020, Flash-Control, LLC filed a patent infringement action against Micron in the U.S. District Court for the Western District ofTexas. The complaint alleges that four U.S. patents are infringed by unspecified DDR4 SDRAM, NVRDIMM, NVDIMM, 3D XPoint, and/or
SSD products that incorporate memory controllers and flash memory. The complaint seeks damages, attorneys’ fees, and costs. On July 21,
2020, in a separate matter, the District Court ruled that two of the four asserted patents are invalid, and on July 14, 2021, the U.S. Court ofAppeals for the Federal Circuit affirmed the ruling of invalidity.
On April 28, 2021, Netlist, Inc. (“Netlist”) filed two patent infringement actions against Micron, Micron Semiconductor Products, Inc. (“MSP”),
and Micron Technology Texas, LLC (“MTEC”) in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. The first complaint alleges that one
U.S. patent is infringed by certain of our non-volatile dual in-line memory modules. The second complaint alleges that three U.S. patents are
infringed by certain of our load-reduced dual in-line memory modules (“LRDIMMs”). Each complaint seeks injunctive relief, damages,
attorneys’ fees, and costs. On March 31, 2022, Netlist filed a patent infringement complaint against Micron and Micron Semiconductor

Among other things, the above lawsuits pertain to substantially all of our DRAM, NAND, and other memory and storage products wemanufacture, which account for substantially all of our revenue.

QimondaOn January 20, 2011, Dr. Michael Jaffé, administrator for Qimonda’s insolvency proceedings, filed suit against Micron and Micron
Semiconductor B.V. (“Micron B.V.”), in the District Court of Munich, Civil Chamber. The complaint seeks to void, under Section 133 of theGerman Insolvency Act, a share purchase agreement between Micron B.V. and Qimonda signed in fall 2008, pursuant to which Micron B.V.
purchased substantially all of Qimonda’s shares of Inotera (the “Inotera Shares”), representing approximately 18% of Inotera’s outstanding
shares at that time, and seeks an order requiring us to re-transfer those shares to the Qimonda estate. The complaint also seeks, among
other things, to recover damages for the alleged value of the joint venture relationship with Inotera and to terminate, under Sections 103 or
133 of the German Insolvency Code, a patent cross-license between us and Qimonda entered into at the same time as the share purchaseagreement.
Following a series of hearings with pleadings, arguments, and witnesses on behalf of the Qimonda estate, on March 13, 2014, the court
issued judgments: (1) ordering Micron B.V. to pay approximately $1 million in respect of certain Inotera Shares sold in connection with theoriginal share purchase; (2) ordering Micron B.V. to disclose certain information with respect to any Inotera Shares sold by it to third parties;(3) ordering Micron B.V. to disclose the benefits derived by it from ownership of the Inotera Shares, including in particular, any profits
distributed on the Inotera Shares and all other benefits; (4) denying Qimonda’s claims against Micron for any damages relating to the joint
venture relationship with Inotera; and (5) determining that Qimonda’s obligations under the patent cross-license agreement are canceled. In
addition, the court issued interlocutory judgments ordering, among other things: (1) that Micron B.V. transfer to the Qimonda estate theInotera Shares still owned by Micron B.V. and pay to the Qimonda estate compensation in an amount to be specified for any Inotera Shares
sold to third parties; and (2) that Micron B.V. pay the Qimonda estate as compensation an amount to be specified for benefits derived byMicron B.V. from ownership of the Inotera Shares. The interlocutory judgments had no immediate, enforceable effect and Micron,accordingly, has been able to continue to operate with full control of the Inotera Shares subject to further developments in the case. Micronand Micron B.V. appealed the judgments to the German Appeals Court, which thereafter appointed an independent expert to perform an
evaluation of Dr. Jaffé’s claims that the amount Micron paid for Qimonda was less than fair market value. On March 31, 2020, the expert
presented an opinion to the Appeals Court concluding that the amount paid by Micron was within an acceptable range of fair value. On
October 5, 2022, the Appeals Court ruled that the relevant issue to be addressed is whether Qimonda's creditors were prejudiced such thatthe original transaction should be voided. The Appeals Court set a date of May 23, 2023 for issuing a decision.

Antitrust Matters
Six cases have been filed against Micron alleging price fixing of DRAM products in the following Canadian courts on the dates indicated:
Superior Court of Quebec (April 30, 2018 and May 3, 2018), the Federal Court of Canada (May 2, 2018), the Ontario Superior Court ofJustice (May 15, 2018), and the Supreme Court of British Columbia (May 10, 2018). The plaintiffs in these cases are individuals seeking
certification of class actions on behalf of direct and indirect purchasers of DRAM in Canada (or regions of Canada) between June 1, 2016
and February 1, 2018.
On May 15, 2018, the Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation (“SAMR”) notified Micron that it was investigating potential
collusion and other anticompetitive conduct by DRAM suppliers in China. On May 31, 2018, SAMR made unannounced visits to our sales
offices in Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen to seek certain information as part of its investigation. We are cooperating with SAMR in its
investigation.

Securities Matters
On February 9, 2021, a derivative complaint was filed by a shareholder against Sanjay Mehrotra and other current and former directors ofMicron, allegedly on behalf of and for the benefit of Micron, in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging violations of
securities laws, breaches of fiduciary duties, and other violations of law involving allegedly false and misleading statements about Micron’scommitment to diversity and progress in diversifying its workforce, executive leadership, and Board of Directors. The complaint seeks
damages, fees, interest, costs, and an order requiring Micron to take various actions to allegedly improve its corporate governance andinternal procedures.

Other Matters
In the normal course of business, we are a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which we may be obligated to indemnify anotherparty. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these types of agreements due to the conditional
nature of our obligations and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, our payments underthese types of agreements have not had a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Contingency Assessment
We are unable to predict the outcome of any of the matters noted above and cannot make a reasonable estimate of the potential loss orrange of possible losses. A determination that our products or manufacturing processes infringe the intellectual property rights of others orentering into a license agreement covering such intellectual property could result in significant liability and/or require us to make materialchanges to our products and/or manufacturing processes. Any of the foregoing, as well as the resolution of any other legal matter noted
above, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

EquityCommon Stock Repurchases: Our Board of Directors has authorized the discretionary repurchase of up to $10 billion of our outstanding
common stock through open-market purchases, block trades, privately-negotiated transactions, derivative transactions, and/or pursuant toRule 10b5-1 trading plans. The repurchase authorization has no expiration date, does not obligate us to acquire any common stock, and issubject to market conditions and our ongoing determination of the best use of available cash. No shares were repurchased in the second
quarter of 2023. In the first quarter of 2023, we repurchased 8.6 million shares of our common stock for $425 million. Through March 2, 2023,
we had repurchased an aggregate of $6.89 billion under the authorization. Amounts repurchased are included in treasury stock.
Dividends: We declared and paid dividends of $126 million ($0.115 per share) in each of the second and first quarters of 2023.

Derivative Instruments with Hedge Accounting Designation
Cash Flow Hedges: We utilize forward and swap contracts that generally mature within two years designated as cash flow hedges tominimize our exposure to changes in currency exchange rates or commodity prices for certain capital expenditures and manufacturing costs.
Forward and swap contracts are measured at fair value based on market-based observable inputs including market spot and forward rates,interest rates, and credit-risk spreads (Level 2). We recognized gains from cash flow hedges of $75 million and $128 million for the second
quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, and losses of $70 million and $170 million for the second quarter and first six months of2022, respectively, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). We reclassified losses of $54 million and $122 million for the second
quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively, from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings, primarily to cost of
goods sold. The reclassifications for the second quarter and first six months of 2022 were not significant. As of March 2, 2023, we expect toreclassify $220 million of pre-tax losses related to cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings in
the next 12 months.
Fair Value Hedges: We utilize fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges to minimize certain exposures to changes
in the fair value of fixed-rate debt that result from fluctuations in benchmark interest rates. Interest rate swaps are measured at fair value
based on market-based observable inputs including interest rates and credit-risk spreads (Level 2). The changes in the fair values ofderivatives designated as fair value hedges and the offsetting changes in the underlying fair values of the hedged items are both recognizedin earnings. When a derivative is no longer designated as a fair value hedge for any reason, including termination and maturity, the remaining
unamortized difference between the carrying value of the hedged item at that time and the face value of the hedged item is amortized toearnings over the remaining life of the hedged item, or immediately if the hedged item has matured or been extinguished. The effects of fairvalue hedges on our consolidated statements of operations, recognized in interest expense, were not significant for the periods presented.

Derivative Instruments without Hedge Accounting Designation
Currency Derivatives: We generally utilize a rolling hedge strategy with currency forward contracts that mature within three months tohedge our exposures of monetary assets and liabilities from changes in currency exchange rates. At the end of each reporting period,
monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are remeasured into U.S. dollars and the associatedoutstanding forward contracts are marked to market. Currency forward contracts are valued at fair values based on the middle of bid and ask
prices of dealers or exchange quotations (Level 2). Realized and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments without hedge
accounting designation as well as the changes in the underlying monetary assets and liabilities from changes in currency exchange rates areincluded in other non-operating income (expense), net. The amounts recognized for derivative instruments without hedge accounting
designation were not significant for the periods presented. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

As of March 2, 2023, $1.43 billion of total unrecognized compensation costs for unvested awards, before the effect of any future forfeitures,
was expected to be recognized through the second quarter of 2027, resulting in a weighted-average period of 1.4 years.

Revenue
Revenue is primarily recognized at a point in time when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers in an amount thatreflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. Substantially all contracts with our customers are shortterm in duration at fixed, negotiated prices with payment generally due shortly after delivery. From time to time, we have contracts with initial
terms that include performance obligations that extend beyond one year. As of March 2, 2023, our future performance obligations beyond
one year were not significant.
As of March 2, 2023 and September 1, 2022, other current liabilities included $605 million and $1.26 billion, respectively, for estimates ofconsideration payable to customers including estimates for pricing adjustments and returns.
In the second quarter of 2023, we received $120 million in cash as settlement of an insurance claim involving an operational disruption in2017, of which $114 million was for business interruption and recognized in revenue.

In 2023, we initiated a restructure plan in response to challenging industry conditions (the “2023 Restructure Plan”). Under the 2023
Restructure Plan, we expect our headcount reduction to approach 15% by the end of calendar 2023, through a combination of voluntary
attrition and personnel reductions. In connection with the plan, we incurred restructure charges of $86 million and $99 million in the second
quarter and first six months of 2023 respectively, primarily related to employee severance costs. As of March 2, 2023, total costs expected to
be incurred under the 2023 Restructure Plan were approximately $160 million. We expect the plan to be substantially completed by the endof the third quarter of 2023.
Changes in our restructure liability (included in accounts payable and accrued expenses) for the six months ended March 2, 2023 were as

The changes in our effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2023 as compared to the corresponding periods of 2022
were primarily due to pre-tax losses incurred in the first six months of 2023. Despite a consolidated pre-tax loss on a worldwide basis, wehave taxes payable in certain geographies due to minimum taxable income reportable in those geographies.
We operate in a number of jurisdictions outside the United States, including Singapore, where we have tax incentive arrangements. These
incentives expire, in whole or in part, at various dates through 2034 and are conditional, in part, upon meeting certain business operations
and employment thresholds. As a result of a loss before taxes and geographic mix of income, the benefit from tax incentive arrangements
was not material for the second quarter and first six months of 2023. These arrangements reduced our tax provision by $304 million ($0.27
per diluted share) and $594 million ($0.53 per diluted share) for the second quarter and first six months of 2022, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONSThis discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 1, 2022. All period references are to our fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. Our
fiscal year is the 52 or 53-week period ending on the Thursday closest to August 31. Fiscal years 2023 and 2022 each contain 52 weeks. Alltabular dollar amounts are in millions, except per share amounts.

Overview
We are an industry leader in innovative memory and storage solutions transforming how the world uses information to enrich life for all. Witha relentless focus on our customers, technology leadership, and manufacturing and operational excellence, Micron delivers a rich portfolio of
high-performance DRAM, NAND, and NOR memory and storage products through our Micron® and Crucial® brands. Every day, theinnovations that our people create fuel the data economy, enabling advances in artificial intelligence and 5G applications that unleash
opportunities — from the data center to the intelligent edge and across the client and mobile user experience.
We manufacture our products at wholly-owned facilities and also utilize subcontractors for certain manufacturing processes. Our global
network of manufacturing centers of excellence not only allows us to benefit from scale while streamlining processes and operations, but it
also brings together some of the world’s brightest talent to work on the most advanced memory technology. Centers of excellence bringexpertise together in one location, providing an efficient support structure for end-to-end manufacturing, with quicker cycle times, inpartnership with teams such as research and development (“R&D”), product engineering, human resources, procurement, and supply chain.
For our locations in Singapore and Taiwan, this is also a combination of bringing fabrication and back-end manufacturing together. We makesignificant investments to develop proprietary product and process technology, which generally increases bit density per wafer and reduces
per-bit manufacturing costs of each generation of product. We continue to introduce new generations of products that offer improved
performance characteristics, including higher data transfer rates, advanced packaging solutions, lower power consumption, improved
read/write reliability, and increased memory density.
We face intense competition in the semiconductor memory and storage markets and to remain competitive we must continuously develop
and implement new products and technologies and decrease manufacturing costs in spite of ongoing inflationary cost pressures. Our
success is largely dependent on obtaining returns on our R&D investments, efficient utilization of our manufacturing infrastructure,development and integration of advanced product and process technologies, market acceptance of our diversified portfolio of semiconductorbased memory and storage solutions, and efficient capital spending.

Product Technologies
Our product portfolio of memory and storage solutions, advanced solutions, and storage platforms is based on our high-performancesemiconductor memory and storage technologies, including DRAM, NAND, and NOR. We sell our products into various markets through ourbusiness units in numerous forms, including components, modules, SSDs, managed NAND, MCPs, and wafers. Our system-level solutions,
including SSDs and managed NAND, combine NAND, a controller, firmware, and in some cases DRAM.
DRAM: DRAM products are dynamic random access memory semiconductor devices with low latency that provide high-speed data retrieval
with a variety of performance characteristics. DRAM products lose content when power is turned off (“volatile”) and are most commonly usedin client, cloud server, enterprise, networking, graphics, industrial, and automotive markets. LPDRAM products, which are engineered to meetstandards for performance and power consumption, are sold into smartphone and other mobile-device markets (including client markets for
Chromebooks and notebook PCs), as well as into the automotive, industrial, and consumer markets.

31

Table of Contents

NAND: NAND products are non-volatile, re-writeable semiconductor storage devices that provide high-capacity, low-cost storage with avariety of performance characteristics. NAND is used in SSDs for the enterprise and cloud, client, and consumer markets and in removablestorage markets. Managed NAND is used in smartphones and other mobile devices, and in consumer, automotive, and embedded markets.
Low-density NAND is ideal for applications like automotive, surveillance, machine-to-machine, automation, printer, and home networking.
NOR: NOR products are non-volatile re-writable semiconductor memory devices that provide fast read speeds. NOR is most commonly used
for reliable code storage (e.g., boot, application, operating system, and execute-in-place code in an embedded system) and for frequently
changing small data storage and is ideal for automotive, industrial, and consumer applications.

Industry Conditions
The memory and storage industry environment deteriorated sharply in the fourth quarter of 2022 through the first six months of 2023 due toreduced demand resulting from customer adjustments to lower elevated inventory levels and weak demand in many end markets combinedwith global and macroeconomic challenges. This led to significant reductions in average selling prices and bit shipments for both DRAM and
NAND, as well as declines in revenue across all of our business segments and nearly all our end markets. Due to the challenging pricing
environment, we recognized a $1.43 billion charge to write down inventories to their estimated net realizable value in the second quarter of2023 and we project approximately $500 million of additional write-downs in the third quarter. These projected write-downs, which relate toinventories to be produced in the third quarter, may change significantly. Small changes to price expectations beyond the third quarter could
have a substantial positive or negative impact on our expected third quarter inventory write-downs. Further write-downs of inventories infuture quarters could occur if the challenging pricing environment persists. Given the challenging pricing environment, elevated levels of
inventories for suppliers and customers, and significant supply-demand mismatch, we expect industry profitability will remain challenged
throughout calendar 2023.
As a result of these conditions and increases in our inventory levels, we have reduced wafer starts and capital expenditures. We recognized$27 million of period costs from underutilization in the second quarter of 2023 due to wafer start reductions. We estimate approximately $300
million of period costs from underutilization due to wafer start reductions in the second half of 2023. We are also taking significant steps toreduce our costs and operating expenses. These actions include the 2023 Restructure Plan discussed below and additional reductions inexternal spending, including implementing productivity programs across the business, suspension of our 2023 bonus company-wide,
reductions in select product programs, lower discretionary spending, and cuts to 2023 executive salaries across the company.

2023 Restructure Plan
We initiated the 2023 Restructure Plan in response to challenging industry conditions. Under the plan, we expect our headcount reduction toapproach 15% by the end of calendar 2023, through a combination of voluntary attrition and personnel reductions. In connection with theplan, we incurred restructure charges of $86 million and $99 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2023, respectively. We
expect to incur additional charges of approximately $60 million in the second half of 2023. As of March 2, 2023, we expect to make future
cash payments of approximately $120 million in connection with the plan, substantially all of which will be paid in 2023. We expect the plan tobe substantially completed by the end of the third quarter of 2023. As a result of the 2023 Restructure Plan, we expect to realize cost savingsof approximately $130 million per quarter (approximately 60% in cost of goods sold, 30% in R&D, and 10% in SG&A) starting in the fourth
quarter of 2023. Further information on restructure activities can be found in “Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements – Restructure and Asset Impairments.”

Operating Expenses and Other
Research and Development: R&D expenses vary primarily with the number of development and pre-qualification wafers processed, thecost of advanced equipment dedicated to new product and process development, and personnel costs. Because of the lead times necessary
to manufacture our products, we typically begin to process wafers before completion of performance and reliability testing. Development of a
product is deemed complete when it is qualified through internal reviews and tests for performance and reliability. R&D expenses can varysignificantly depending on the timing of product qualification.
R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2023 were 7% lower as compared to the first quarter of 2023 primarily due to lower volumes ofdevelopment and prequalification wafers. R&D expenses for the second quarter of 2023 were relatively unchanged compared to the second
quarter of 2022 as decreases in employee compensation were offset by higher depreciation expense. R&D expenses for the first six monthsof 2023 were 9% higher as compared to the first six months of 2022 primarily due to higher volumes of development and prequalification
wafers and higher depreciation expense.
Selling, General, and Administrative: SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2023 were 8% lower as compared to the first quarter of2023 primarily due to decreases in employee compensation and other incremental decreases across multiple expense categories. SG&A
expenses for the second quarter and first six months of 2023 decreased 12% and 8%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding
periods of 2022, primarily due to decreases in employee compensation, legal fees, and advertising.

The changes in our effective tax rate for the second quarter and first six months of 2023 as compared to the corresponding periods of 2022
were primarily due to pre-tax losses incurred in the first six months of 2023. Despite a consolidated pre-tax loss on a worldwide basis, wehave taxes payable in certain geographies due to minimum taxable income reportable in those geographies.
We operate in a number of jurisdictions outside the United States, including Singapore, where we have tax incentive arrangements. These
incentives expire, in whole or in part, at various dates through 2034 and are conditional, in part, upon meeting certain business operations
and employment thresholds. As a result of a loss before taxes and geographical mix of income, the net benefit from tax incentive
arrangements was not material for the first six months of 2023. These arrangements reduced our tax provision by $304 million ($0.27 perdiluted share) for the second quarter of 2022 and $594 million ($0.53 per diluted share) for the first six months of 2022.
Other: Further information on other items can be found in “Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and financing obtained from capital markets and financial institutions.
Cash generated from operations is highly dependent on selling prices for our products, which can vary significantly from period to period.
Cash and marketable investments totaled $12.03 billion as of March 2, 2023, and $10.98 billion as of September 1, 2022. Our cash andinvestments consist primarily of bank deposits, money market funds, and liquid investment-grade, fixed-income securities, which arediversified among industries and individual issuers. To mitigate credit risk, we invest through high-credit-quality financial institutions and by
policy generally limit the concentration of credit exposure by restricting the amount of investments with any single obligor. As of March 2,2023, $3.53 billion of our cash and marketable investments was held by our foreign subsidiaries.
We continuously evaluate alternatives for efficiently funding our capital expenditures and ongoing operations. We expect, from time to time,to engage in a variety of financing transactions for such purposes, including the issuance of securities. As of March 2, 2023, $2.50 billion wasavailable to draw under our Revolving Credit Facility. On March 27, 2023, we entered into amendments to the Term Loan Agreement and theagreements governing the Revolving Credit Facility and the 2024 Term Loan A to revise the leverage ratio covenant in each such agreement,
as further described in “Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Debt.” Funding of certain significant
capital projects is also dependent on the receipt of government incentives, which are subject to conditions and may not be obtained.

To develop new product and process technology, support future growth, achieve operating efficiencies, and maintain product quality, we must
continue to invest in manufacturing technologies, facilities and equipment, and R&D. We estimate capital expenditures in 2023 for property,
plant, and equipment, net of partner contributions, to be approximately $7.0 billion. Actual amounts for 2023 will vary depending on market
conditions. As of March 2, 2023, we had purchase obligations of approximately $3.14 billion for the acquisition of property, plant, andequipment, of which approximately $2.26 billion is expected to be paid within one year. For a description of other contractual obligations,such as leases, debt, and commitments, see “Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Leases,” “ –Debt,” and “ – Commitments.”
To support expected memory demand in the second half of the decade, we plan to add new DRAM wafer capacity. Following the enactmentof the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 (“CHIPS Act”), we announced plans to invest in two leading-edge memory manufacturing fabs inthe United States, contingent on CHIPS Act support through grants and investment tax credits. As part of this plan, in September 2022, we
broke ground on a leading-edge memory manufacturing fab in Boise, Idaho. Construction of the fab is expected to begin in calendar 2023
with DRAM production targeted to start in calendar 2025. In addition, in October 2022, we announced plans to build a second leading-edge
DRAM manufacturing fab in Clay, New York. We plan to start site preparation work in calendar 2023 and expect construction to begin in
calendar 2024, with production anticipated to ramp in the latter half of the decade. We expect these new fabs to fulfill our requirements for
additional wafer capacity starting in the second half of the decade and beyond, in line with industry demand trends.
On November 1, 2021, we issued $1 billion in aggregate principal amount of unsecured 2032 Green Bonds. Over time, we plan to allocate an
amount equal to the net proceeds to fund eligible sustainability-focused projects involving renewable energy, green buildings, energy
efficiency, water management, waste abatement, and a circular economy. Through November 1, 2022, the date of our 2022 Green Bond
Report, we had allocated $676 million toward this commitment. We currently anticipate that 100% of net proceeds of the 2032 Green Bonds
will be allocated and dispersed for eligible projects by November 1, 2023.
Our Board of Directors has authorized the discretionary repurchase of up to $10 billion of our outstanding common stock through openmarket purchases, block trades, privately-negotiated transactions, derivative transactions, and/or pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The
repurchase authorization has no expiration date, does not obligate us to acquire any common stock, and is subject to market conditions andour ongoing determination of the best use of available cash. Through March 2, 2023, we had repurchased an aggregate of $6.89 billion of
the authorized amount. See “Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Equity.”
On March 28, 2023, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.115 per share, payable in cash on April 25, 2023, toshareholders of record as of the close of business on April 10, 2023. The declaration and payment of any future cash dividends are at thediscretion and subject to the approval of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors' decisions regarding the amount and payment ofdividends will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to, our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements,
business conditions, debt service obligations, contractual restrictions, industry practice, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, and otherfactors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
We expect that our cash and investments, cash flows from operations, and available financing will be sufficient to meet our requirements atleast through the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

Operating Activities: Cash provided by operating activities reflects net income (loss) adjusted for certain non-cash items, including
depreciation expense, amortization of intangible assets, and stock-based compensation, and the effects of changes in operating assets andliabilities. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2023 as compared to the first six months of 2022
was primarily due to a net loss in the current quarter adjusted for non-cash items and the effect of lower receivables, partially offset by anincrease in inventories and a decline in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Investing Activities: For the first six months of 2023, net cash used for investing activities consisted primarily of $4.65 billion of expenditures
for property, plant, and equipment, partially offset by $480 million of net inflows from maturities, sales, and purchases of available-for-salesecurities.
For the first six months of 2022, net cash used for investing activities consisted primarily of $5.88 billion of expenditures for property, plant,
and equipment; inflows of $66 million of partner contributions for capital expenditures; $893 million of net inflows from the sale of the Lehi,
Utah fab; and $119 million of net outflows from purchases, sales, and maturities of available-for-sale securities.
Financing Activities: For the first six months of 2023, net cash provided by financing activities consisted primarily of $3.20 billion ofproceeds from our 2025, 2026, and 2027 Term Loan A borrowings, $1.27 billion from the issuance of the 2029 B Notes, and $749 million
from the issuance of the 2033 Notes. See “Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Debt.” Cash used
for financing activities included $425 million for the acquisition of 8.6 million shares of our common stock under our share repurchaseauthorization, $252 million of cash payments of dividends to shareholders, and $76 million of payments on equipment purchase contracts.
For the first six months of 2022, net cash used for financing activities included $1.98 billion of repayments of debt primarily to redeem the2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, $667 million for the acquisition of 8.4 million shares of our common stock under our share repurchaseauthorization, $224 million of cash payments of dividends to shareholders, and $105 million of payments on equipment purchase contracts.
Cash used for financing activities was partially offset by aggregate proceeds of $2.00 billion from the issuance of the unsecured 2032 Green
Bonds, 2041 Notes, and 2051 Notes.

Critical Accounting Estimates
For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates, see “Part II – Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Estimates” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 1, 2022. Except forthe significant accounting estimate associated with inventories as discussed below, there have been no changes to our critical accounting
estimates since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 1, 2022.
Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”)
basis. Cost includes depreciation, labor, material, and overhead costs, including product and process technology costs. Determining net
realizable value of inventories involves significant judgments, including projecting future average selling prices, future sales volumes, andestimated costs to complete. To project average selling prices and sales volumes, we review recent sales volumes, existing customer orders,current contract prices, industry analyses of supply and demand, seasonal factors, general economic trends, and other information. Actual
selling prices and volumes may vary significantly from projected prices and volumes due to the volatile nature of the semiconductor memoryand storage markets. When these analyses reflect estimated net realizable values below our manufacturing costs, we record a charge to costof goods sold in advance of when inventories are actually sold. As a result, the timing of when product costs are charged to costs of goods
sold can vary significantly. Differences in forecasted average selling prices used in calculating lower of cost or net realizable value
adjustments can result in significant changes in the estimated net realizable value of product inventories and accordingly the amount of writedown recorded. For example, a 5% variance in the estimated selling prices would have changed the estimated net realizable value of ourinventory by approximately $600 million as of March 2, 2023. Due to the volatile nature of the semiconductor memory and storage markets,
actual selling prices and volumes often vary significantly from projected prices and volumes; as a result, the timing of when product costs arecharged to operations can vary significantly.
U.S. GAAP provides for products to be grouped into categories in order to compare costs to net realizable values. The amount of any
inventory write-down can vary significantly depending on the determination of inventory categories. We review the major characteristics ofproduct type and markets in determining the unit of account for which we perform the lower of average cost or net realizable value analysis
and categorize all inventories (including DRAM, NAND, and other memory) as a single group.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKWe are exposed to interest rate risk related to our indebtedness. As of March 2, 2023 and September 1, 2022, we had fixed-rate debt with anaggregate carrying value of $6.04 billion and $4.03 billion, respectively, and as a result, the fair value of our debt fluctuates with changes inmarket interest rates. In the first six months of 2023, we issued $2.00 billion principal amount of new fixed-rate debt. We estimate that, as ofMarch 2, 2023 and September 1, 2022, a hypothetical 1% decrease in market interest rates would increase the fair value of our fixed-rate
debt by approximately $385 million and $275 million, respectively.
As of March 2, 2023 and September 1, 2022, we had floating-rate debt as well as fixed-rate debt that is swapped to floating-rate debt with anaggregate principal amount of $5.29 billion and $2.09 billion, respectively. In the first six months of 2023, we borrowed $3.20 billion principal
amount of new floating-rate debt. We estimate that, as of March 2, 2023 and September 1, 2022, a hypothetical 1% increase in the interest
rates of this floating-rate debt would result in an increase in annual interest expense of approximately $53 million and $21 million,
respectively.
For further discussion about market risk and sensitivity analysis related to changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates, see “Part II– Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 1,
2022.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period coveredby this report. Based upon that evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that those disclosure
controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and thatsuch information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
During the second quarter of 2023, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or arereasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATIONITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGSFor a discussion of legal proceedings, see “Part I – Item 3. Legal Proceedings” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
September 1, 2022, and the sections titled “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements – Contingencies” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as in our Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the first quarter of 2023.
SEC regulations require disclosure of certain proceedings related to environmental matters unless we reasonably believe that the relatedmonetary sanctions, if any, will be less than a specified threshold. We use a threshold of $1 million for this purpose.

Volatility in average selling prices for our semiconductor memory and storage products may adversely affect our business.
We have experienced significant volatility in our average selling prices and may continue to experience such volatility in the future. For
example, average selling prices for both DRAM and NAND declined approximately 40% for the second quarter of 2023 as compared to thefourth quarter of 2022. Since 2017, annual percentage changes in DRAM average selling prices have ranged from approximately plus 35% tominus 35%. Since 2017, annual percentage changes in NAND average selling prices have ranged from nearly flat to approximately minus
50%. In some prior periods, average selling prices for our products have been below our manufacturing costs and we may experience suchcircumstances in the future. Average selling prices for our products that decline faster than our costs have recently had an adverse effect on
our business and results of operations, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
We may be unable to maintain or improve gross margins.
Our gross margins are dependent, in part, upon continuing decreases in per gigabit manufacturing costs achieved through improvements in
our manufacturing processes and product designs. Factors that may limit our ability to reduce our per gigabit manufacturing costs at
sufficient levels to maintain or improve gross margins include, but are not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

strategic product diversification decisions affecting product mix;
increasing complexity of manufacturing processes;
difficulties in transitioning to smaller line-width process technologies or additional 3D memory layers or NAND cell levels;
process complexity including number of mask layers and fabrication steps;
manufacturing yield;
technological barriers;changes in process technologies;
new products that may require relatively larger die sizes;
start-up or other costs associated with capacity expansions;higher costs of goods and services due to inflationary pressures or market conditions; andhigher manufacturing costs per gigabit due to fab underutilization.

Many factors may result in a reduction of our output or a delay in ramping production, which could lead to underutilization of our production
assets. These factors may include, among others, a weak demand environment, industry oversupply, inventory surpluses, difficulties in
ramping emerging technologies, supply chain disruptions, and delays from equipment suppliers. See “Part I. Financial Information – Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview – Industry Conditions” for information
regarding our current underutilization. A significant portion of our manufacturing costs are fixed and do not vary proportionally with changes in
production output. As a result, lower utilization and corresponding increases in our per gigabit manufacturing costs have had, and may
continue to have, an adverse effect our gross margins, business, results of operations, or financial condition.
We have a broad portfolio of products to address our customers’ needs, which span multiple market segments and are subject to rapid
technological changes. Our manufacturing costs on a per gigabit basis vary across our portfolio as they are largely influenced by thetechnology node in which the solution was developed. We strive to balance our demand and supply for each technology node, but the
dynamics of our markets and our customers can create periods of imbalance, which can lead us to carry elevated inventory levels.
Consequently, we may incur charges in connection with obsolete or excess inventories or we may not fully recover our costs, which would
reduce our gross margins. For example, in the second quarter of 2023, we recorded a charge of $1.43 billion to write down the carrying valueof our inventories to estimated net realizable value. In addition, due to the customized nature of certain of the products we manufacture, we
may be unable to sell certain finished goods inventories to alternative customers or manufacture in-process inventory to different
specifications, which may result in excess and obsolescence charges in future periods.

In addition, if we are unable to supply products that meet customer design and performance specifications, we may be required to sell suchproducts at lower average selling prices, which may reduce our gross margins. Our gross margins may also be impacted by shifts in productmix, driven by our strategy to optimize our portfolio to best respond to changing market dynamics.
Our inability to maintain or improve gross margins could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial
condition.
The semiconductor memory and storage markets are highly competitive.
We face intense competition in the semiconductor memory and storage markets from a number of companies, including Intel Corporation;
Kioxia Holdings Corporation; Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.; SK hynix Inc.; and Western Digital Corporation. Our competitors may use
aggressive pricing to obtain market share. Some of our competitors are large corporations or conglomerates that may have greater resources
to invest in technology, capitalize on growth opportunities, and withstand downturns in the semiconductor markets in which we compete.
Consolidation of industry competitors could put us at a competitive disadvantage as our competitors may benefit from increased
manufacturing scale and a stronger product portfolio.
In addition, some governments may provide, or have provided and may continue to provide, significant assistance, financial or otherwise, tosome of our competitors or to new entrants and may intervene in support of national industries and/or competitors. In particular, we face thethreat of increasing competition as a result of significant investment in the semiconductor industry by the Chinese government and various
state-owned or affiliated entities, such as Yangtze Memory Technologies Co., Ltd. (“YMTC”) and ChangXin Memory Technologies, Inc.
(“CXMT”), that is intended to advance China’s stated national policy objectives. In addition, the Chinese government may restrict us fromparticipating in the China market or may prevent us from competing effectively with Chinese companies.
We and our competitors generally seek to increase wafer output, improve yields, and reduce die size, which could result in significant
increases in worldwide supply and downward pressure on prices. Increases in worldwide supply of semiconductor memory and storage also
result from fabrication capacity expansions, either by way of new facilities, increased capacity utilization, or reallocation of othersemiconductor production to semiconductor memory and storage production. Our competitors may increase capital expenditures resulting in
future increases in worldwide supply. We, and some of our competitors, have plans to ramp, or are constructing or ramping, production at
new fabrication facilities. Increases in worldwide supply of semiconductor memory and storage, if not accompanied by commensurateincreases in demand, could lead to declines in average selling prices for our products and could materially adversely affect our business,
results of operations, or financial condition. If competitors are more successful at developing or implementing new product or process
technology, their products could have cost or performance advantages.
The competitive nature of our industry could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
A downturn in the worldwide economy may harm our business.
Downturns in the worldwide economy, due to inflation, geopolitics, major central bank policy actions including interest rate increases, publichealth crises, or other factors, have harmed our business in the past and current and future downturns could also adversely affect ourbusiness. Adverse economic conditions affect demand for devices that incorporate our products, such as personal computers, smartphones,
automobiles, and servers. Reduced demand for these or other products could result in significant decreases in our average selling prices andproduct sales. In addition, to the extent our customers or distributors have elevated inventory levels or are impacted by a deterioration incredit markets, we may experience a decrease in short-term and/or long-term demand resulting in industry oversupply and declines in pricing
for our products.
A deterioration of conditions in worldwide credit markets could limit our ability to obtain external financing to fund our operations and capital
expenditures. In addition, we may experience losses on our holdings of cash and investments due to failures of financial institutions andother parties. Difficult economic conditions may also result in a higher rate of losses on our accounts receivable due to credit defaults. As aresult, downturns in the worldwide economy could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial
condition.

Our future success depends on our ability to develop and produce new and competitive memory and storage technologies andproducts.
Our key semiconductor memory and storage technologies face technological barriers to continue to meet long-term customer needs. Thesebarriers include potential limitations on stacking additional 3D memory layers, increasing bits per cell (i.e., cell levels), meeting higher density
requirements, improving power consumption and reliability, and delivering advanced features and higher performance. We may facetechnological barriers to continue to shrink our products at our current or historical rate, which has generally reduced per gigabit cost. We
have invested and expect to continue to invest in R&D for new and existing products and process technologies, such as EUV lithography, tocontinue to deliver advanced product requirements. Such new technologies can add complexity and risk to our schedule and may affect ourcosts and production output. We may be unable to recover our investment in R&D or otherwise realize the economic benefits of reducing die
size or increasing memory and storage densities. Our competitors are working to develop new memory and storage technologies that may
offer performance and/or cost advantages to existing technologies and render existing technologies obsolete. Accordingly, our future successmay depend on our ability to develop and produce viable and competitive new memory and storage technologies.
We are developing new products, including system-level memory and storage products and solutions, which complement our traditional
products or leverage their underlying design or process technology. We have invested and expect to continue to invest in new semiconductor
product and system-level solution development. We are increasingly differentiating our products and solutions to meet the specific demandsof our customers, which increases our reliance on our customers’ ability to accurately forecast the needs and preferences of their customers.
As a result, our product demand forecasts may be impacted significantly by the strategic actions of our customers. In addition, our ability tosuccessfully introduce new products often requires us to make product specification decisions multiple years in advance of when new
products enter the market.
It is important that we deliver products in a timely manner with increasingly advanced performance characteristics at the time our customers
are designing and evaluating samples for their products. If we do not meet their product design schedules, our customers may exclude us
from further consideration as a supplier for those products. The process to develop new products requires us to demonstrate advanced
functionality, performance, and reliability, often well in advance of a planned ramp of production, in order to secure design wins with ourcustomers. Many factors may negatively impact our ability to meet anticipated timelines and/or expected or required quality standards withrespect to the development of certain of our products. In addition, some of our components have long lead-times, requiring us to place orders
up to a year in advance of anticipated demand. Such long lead-times increase the risk of excess inventory or loss of sales in the event ourforecasts vary substantially from actual demand.
There can be no assurance of the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

we will be successful in developing competitive new semiconductor memory and storage technologies and products;
we will be able to cost-effectively manufacture new products;
we will be able to successfully market these technologies;
margins generated from sales of these products will allow us to recover costs of development efforts;
we will be able to establish or maintain key relationships with customers, or that we will not be prohibited from working with certain
customers, for specific chip set or design requirements;
we will accurately predict and design products that meet our customers' specifications; or
we will be able to introduce new products into the market and qualify them with our customers on a timely basis.

Unsuccessful efforts to develop new memory and storage technologies and products could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, or financial condition.

A significant portion of our revenue is concentrated with a select number of customers.
In each of the last three years, approximately one-half of our total revenue was from our top ten customers. A disruption in our relationshipwith any of these customers could adversely affect our business. We could experience fluctuations in our customer base or the mix ofrevenue by customer as markets and strategies evolve. Our customers’ demand for our products may fluctuate due to factors beyond ourcontrol. In addition, any consolidation of our customers could reduce the number of customers to whom our products may be sold. Ourinability to meet our customers’ requirements or to qualify our products with them could adversely impact our revenue. A meaningful change
in the inventory strategy of our customers could impact our industry bit demand growth outlook. The loss of, or restrictions on our ability tosell to, one or more of our major customers, or any significant reduction in orders from, or a shift in product mix by, customers could have amaterial adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
We face geopolitical and other risks associated with our international operations that could materially adversely affect ourbusiness, results of operations, or financial condition.
In addition to our U.S. operations, a substantial portion of our operations are conducted in Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia, China, andIndia, and many of our customers, suppliers, and vendors also operate internationally. In 2022, nearly half of our revenue was from sales tocustomers who have headquarters located outside the United States, while over 80% of our revenue in 2022 was from products shipped tocustomer locations outside the United States.
Our international operations are subject to a number of risks, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

export and import duties, changes to import and export regulations, customs regulations and processes, and restrictions on thetransfer of funds, including currency controls in China, which could negatively affect the amount and timing of payments from certainof our customers and, as a result, our cash flows;
imposition of bans on sales of goods or services to one or more of our significant foreign customers;
public health issues;compliance with U.S. and international laws involving international operations, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977,
as amended, sanctions and anti-corruption laws, export and import laws, and similar rules and regulations;
theft of intellectual property;
political and economic instability, including the effects of disputes between China and Taiwan and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine;
government actions or civil unrest preventing the flow of products and materials, including delays in shipping and obtaining products
and materials, cancellation of orders, or loss or damage of products;
problems with the transportation or delivery of products and materials;
issues arising from cultural or language differences and labor unrest;
longer payment cycles and greater difficulty in collecting accounts receivable;
compliance with trade, technical standards, and other laws in a variety of jurisdictions;contractual and regulatory limitations on the ability to maintain flexibility with staffing levels;
disruptions to manufacturing or R&D activities as a result of actions imposed by foreign governments;changes in economic policies of foreign governments; anddifficulties in staffing and managing international operations.

If we or our customers, suppliers, or vendors are impacted by any of these risks, it could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, or financial condition. For example, political, economic, or other actions may adversely affect our operations in Taiwan.
A majority of our DRAM production output in 2022 was from our fabrication facilities in Taiwan and any loss of output could have a material
adverse effect on us. Any political, economic, or other actions may also adversely affect our customers and the technology industry supply
chain, for which Taiwan is a central hub, and as a result, could have a material adverse impact on us.

In addition, the U.S. government has in the past restricted American firms from selling products and software to certain of our customers andmay in the future impose similar restrictions on one or more of our significant customers. These restrictions may not prohibit our competitorsfrom selling similar products to our customers, which may result in our loss of sales and market share. Even when such restrictions are lifted,
financial or other penalties or continuing export restrictions imposed with respect to our customers could have a continuing negative impact
on our future revenue and results of operations, and we may not be able to recover any customers or market share we lose, or make suchrecoveries at acceptable average selling prices, while complying with such restrictions.
Our business, results of operations, or financial condition could be adversely affected by the limited availability and quality ofmaterials, supplies, and capital equipment, or dependency on third-party service providers.
Our supply chain and operations are dependent on the availability of materials that meet exacting standards and the use of third parties toprovide us with components and services. We generally have multiple sources of supply for our materials and services. However, only alimited number of suppliers are capable of delivering certain materials, components, and services that meet our standards and, in somecases, materials, components, or services are provided by a single or sole source, and we may be unable to qualify new suppliers on atimely basis. The availability of materials or components such as chemicals, silicon wafers, gases, photoresist, controllers, substrates, leadframes, printed circuit boards, targets, and reticle glass blanks is impacted by various factors. These factors could include a shortage of raw
materials or a disruption in the processing or purification of those raw materials into finished goods. Shortages or increases in lead times
have occurred in the past, are currently occurring with respect to some materials and components, and may occur from time to time in the
future. Constraints within our supply chain for certain materials and integrated circuit components could limit our bit shipments, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Our manufacturing processes are also dependent on our relationships with third-party manufacturers of controllers, analog integrated circuits,
and other components used in some of our products and with outsourced semiconductor foundries, assembly and test providers, contract
manufacturers, logistics carriers, and other service providers, including providers of electricity and other utilities. Although we have certain
long-term contracts with some of our suppliers, many of these contracts do not provide for long-term capacity or pricing commitments. To theextent we do not have firm commitments from our third-party suppliers over a specific time period or for any specific capacity, quantity, and/or
pricing, our suppliers may allocate capacity to their other customers and capacity and/or materials may not be available when needed or atreasonable prices. Inflationary pressures and shortages have increased, and may continue to increase, costs for materials, supplies, andservices. Regardless of contract structure, large swings in demand may exceed our contracted supply and/or our suppliers’ capacity to meetthose demand changes resulting in a shortage of parts, materials, or capacity needed to manufacture our products. In addition, if any of our
suppliers was to cease operations or become insolvent, this could impact their ability to provide us with necessary supplies, and we may not
be able to obtain the needed supply in a timely way or at all from other providers.
Certain materials are primarily available in a limited number of countries, including rare earth elements, minerals, and metals. Trade disputes,
geopolitical tensions, economic circumstances, political conditions, or public health issues, such as COVID-19, may limit our ability to obtainsuch materials. Although these rare earth and other materials are generally available from multiple suppliers, China is the predominant
producer of certain of these materials. If China were to restrict or stop exporting these materials, our suppliers’ ability to obtain such supply
may be constrained and we may be unable to obtain sufficient quantities, or obtain supply in a timely manner, or at a commerciallyreasonable cost. Constrained supply of rare earth elements, minerals, and metals may restrict our ability to manufacture certain of our
products and make it difficult or impossible to compete with other semiconductor memory manufacturers who are able to obtain sufficientquantities of these materials from China.
We and/or our suppliers and service providers could be affected by regional conflicts, sanctions, tariffs, embargoes, or other trade
restrictions, as well as laws and regulations enacted in response to concerns regarding climate change, conflict minerals, responsible
sourcing practices, public health crises, contagious disease outbreaks, or other matters, which could limit the supply of our materials and/or
increase the cost. Environmental regulations could limit our ability to procure or use certain chemicals or materials in our operations or
products. In addition, disruptions in transportation lines could delay our receipt of materials. Our ability to procure components to repair
equipment essential for our manufacturing processes could also be negatively impacted by various restrictions or disruptions in supply
chains, among other items. The disruption of our supply of materials, components, or services, or the extension of our lead times could havea material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Our operations are dependent on our ability to procure advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment that enables the transition tolower cost manufacturing processes. For certain key types of equipment, including photolithography tools, we are sometimes dependent on asingle supplier. From time to time, we have experienced difficulties in obtaining some equipment on a timely basis due to suppliers’ limited
capacity. Our inability to obtain equipment on a timely basis could adversely affect our ability to transition to next generation manufacturing
processes and reduce our costs. Delays in obtaining equipment could also impede our ability to ramp production and could increase ouroverall costs of a ramp. Our inability to obtain advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment in a timely manner could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Our construction projects to expand production and R&D capacity are highly dependent on available sources of labor, materials, equipment,
and services. Increasing demand, supply constraints, inflation, and other market conditions could result in increasing shortages and higher
costs for these items. Difficulties in obtaining these resources could result in significant delays in completion of our construction projects andcost increases, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Our inability to source materials, supplies, capital equipment, or third-party services could affect our overall production output and our ability
to fulfill customer demand. Significant or prolonged shortages of our products could halt customer manufacturing and damage ourrelationships with these customers. Any damage to our customer relationships as a result of a shortage of our products could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Similarly, if our customers experience disruptions to their supplies, materials, components, or services, or the extension of their lead times,
they may reduce, cancel, or alter the timing of their purchases with us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results ofoperations, or financial condition.
The continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial
condition.
The ongoing effects of the public health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures being taken to limit COVID-19’s impact
on our business, results of operations, and financial condition are uncertain and difficult to predict, but may include, and in some cases, haveincluded and may continue to include:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Disruptions to our supply chain and our operations, or those of our suppliers, especially as a result of public health measures;
Impacts to customer demand, resulting in industry oversupply and declines in pricing for our products;
Adverse impacts to our business activities and increased costs from our efforts to mitigate the impact of COVID-19;
Increased costs for, or unavailability of, transportation, raw materials, components, electricity and/or other energy sources, or other
inputs necessary for the operation of our business;
Reductions in, or cessation of, operations at one or more of our sites or those of our subcontractors or suppliers, resulting fromgovernment restrictions and/or our own measures to prevent and/or mitigate the spread of COVID-19; andAdverse impacts to our construction projects, which could hamper our ability to introduce new technologies, reduce costs, or meetcustomer demand.

These effects and other impacts of the pandemic, alone or taken together, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results ofoperations, or financial condition.

Increases in sales of system solutions may increase our dependency upon specific customers and our costs to develop, qualify,
and manufacture our system solutions.
Our development of system-level memory and storage products is dependent, in part, upon successfully identifying and meeting ourcustomers’ specifications for those products. Developing and manufacturing system-level products with specifications unique to a customer
increases our reliance upon that customer for purchasing our products at sufficient volumes and prices in a timely manner. Even if our
products meet customer specifications, our sales of system-level solutions are dependent upon our customers choosing our products overthose of our competitors and purchasing our products at sufficient volumes and prices. Our competitors’ products may be less costly, provide
better performance, or include additional features when compared to our products. Our long-term ability to sell system-level memory andstorage products is reliant upon our customers’ ability to create, market, and sell their products containing our system-level solutions at
sufficient volumes and prices in a timely manner. If we fail to successfully develop and market system-level products, our business, results ofoperations, or financial condition may be materially adversely affected.
Manufacturing system-level solutions, such as SSDs and managed NAND, typically results in higher per-unit manufacturing costs ascompared to other products. Even if we are successful in selling system-level solutions to our customers in sufficient volume, we may beunable to generate sufficient profit if our per-unit manufacturing costs are not offset by higher per-unit selling prices. Manufacturing systemlevel solutions to customer specifications requires a longer development cycle, as compared to discrete products, to design, test, and qualify,
which may increase our costs. Some of our system solutions are increasingly dependent on sophisticated firmware that may requiresignificant customization to meet customer specifications, which increases our costs and time to market. Additionally, we may need to update
our controller and hardware design as well as our firmware or develop new firmware as a result of new product introductions or changes incustomer specifications and/or industry standards, which increases our costs. System complexities and extended warranties for system-levelproducts could also increase our warranty costs. Our failure to cost-effectively manufacture system-level solutions and/or controller, hardware
design, and firmware in a timely manner may result in reduced demand for our system-level products and could have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Products that fail to meet specifications, are defective, or are otherwise incompatible with end uses could impose significant costs
on us.
Products that do not meet specifications or that contain, or are perceived by our customers to contain, defects or that are otherwise
incompatible with end uses could impose significant costs on us or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, results of operations,or financial condition. From time to time, we experience problems with nonconforming, defective, or incompatible products after we haveshipped such products. In recent periods, we have further diversified and expanded our product offerings, which could potentially increase
the chance that one or more of our products could fail to meet specifications in a particular application. Our products and solutions may bedeemed fully or partially responsible for functionality in our customers’ products and may result in sharing or shifting of product or financial
liability from our customers to us for costs incurred by the end user as a result of our customers’ products failing to perform as specified. In
addition, if our products and solutions perform critical functions in our customers’ products or are used in high-risk consumer end products,
such as autonomous driver assistance programs, home and enterprise security, smoke and noxious gas detectors, medical monitoring
equipment, or wearables for child and elderly safety, our potential liability may increase. We could be adversely affected in several ways,
including the following:•••

we may be required or agree to compensate customers for costs incurred or damages caused by defective or incompatible products
and to replace products;
we could incur a decrease in revenue or adjustment to pricing commensurate with the reimbursement of such costs or allegeddamages; andwe may encounter adverse publicity, which could cause a decrease in sales of our products or harm our reputation or relationships
with existing or potential customers.

Any of the foregoing items could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

If our manufacturing process is disrupted by operational issues, natural disasters, or other events, our business, results ofoperations, or financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
We and our subcontractors manufacture products using highly complex processes that require technologically advanced equipment andcontinuous modification to improve yields and performance. Difficulties in the manufacturing process or the effects from a shift in product mix
can reduce yields or disrupt production and may increase our per gigabit manufacturing costs. We and our subcontractors maintain
operations and continuously implement new product and process technology at manufacturing facilities, which are widely dispersed in
multiple locations in several countries including the United States, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Malaysia, and China. As a result of thenecessary interdependence within our network of manufacturing facilities, an operational disruption at one of our or a subcontractor’sfacilities may have a disproportionate impact on our ability to produce many of our products.
From time to time, there have been disruptions in our manufacturing operations as a result of power outages, improperly functioning
equipment, disruptions in supply of raw materials or components, or equipment failures. We have manufacturing and other operations inlocations subject to natural occurrences and possible climate changes, such as severe and variable weather and geological events resulting
in increased costs, or disruptions to our manufacturing operations or those of our suppliers or customers. In addition, climate change may
pose physical risks to our manufacturing facilities or our suppliers’ facilities, including increased extreme weather events that could result in
supply delays or disruptions. Other events, including political or public health crises, such as an outbreak of contagious diseases like COVID19 may also affect our production capabilities or that of our suppliers, including as a result of quarantines, closures of production facilities,
lack of supplies, or delays caused by restrictions on travel or shipping. Events of the types noted above have occurred from time to time andmay occur in the future. As a result, in addition to disruptions to operations, our insurance premiums may increase or we may not be able tofully recover any sustained losses through insurance.
If production is disrupted for any reason, manufacturing yields may be adversely affected, or we may be unable to meet our customers’
requirements and they may purchase products from other suppliers. This could result in a significant increase in manufacturing costs, loss ofrevenue, or damage to customer relationships, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or
financial condition.
Breaches of our security systems or products, or those of our customers, suppliers, or business partners, could expose us tolosses.
We maintain a system of controls over the physical security of our facilities. We also manage and store various proprietary information andsensitive or confidential data relating to our operations. In addition, we process, store, and transmit large amounts of data relating to ourcustomers and employees, including sensitive personal information. Unauthorized persons, employees, former employees, or other third
parties may gain access to our facilities or technology infrastructure and systems to steal trade secrets or other proprietary information,
compromise confidential information, create system disruptions, or cause shutdowns. This risk is exacerbated as competitors for talent,particularly engineering talent, increasingly attempt to hire our employees. Through cyberattacks on technology infrastructure and systems,
unauthorized parties may obtain access to computer systems, networks, and data, including cloud-based platforms. The technology
infrastructure and systems of our suppliers, vendors, service providers, cloud solution providers, and partners have in the past experienced,
and may in the future experience, such attacks, which could impact our operations. Cyberattacks can include ransomware, computer denialof-service attacks, worms, supply chain attacks, social engineering, and other malicious software programs or other attacks, including thoseusing techniques that change frequently or may be disguised or difficult to detect, or designed to remain dormant until a triggering event,impersonation of authorized users, and efforts to discover and exploit any design flaws, “bugs,” security vulnerabilities, as well as intentionalor unintentional acts by employees or other insiders with access privileges. Globally, cyberattacks are increasing in number and the attackers
are increasingly organized and well-financed, or supported by state actors, and are developing increasingly sophisticated systems to not onlyattack, but also to evade detection. In addition, geopolitical tensions or conflicts may create a heightened risk of cyberattacks. Breaches ofour physical security, attacks on our technology infrastructure and systems, or breaches or attacks on our customers, suppliers, or business
partners who have confidential or sensitive information regarding us and our customers and suppliers, could result in significant losses anddamage our reputation with customers and suppliers and may expose us to litigation if the confidential information of our customers,
suppliers, or employees is compromised.

49

Table of Contents

Our products are also targets for cyberattacks, including those products utilized in cloud-based environments. While some of our products
contain encryption or security algorithms to protect third-party content or user-generated data stored on our products, these products could
still be hacked or the encryption schemes could be compromised, breached, or circumvented by motivated and sophisticated attackers.
Further, our products contain sophisticated hardware and firmware and applications that may contain security vulnerabilities or defects indesign or manufacture, including “bugs” and other problems that could interfere with the intended operation of our products. To the extent our
products are hacked, or the encryption schemes are compromised or breached, this could harm our business by requiring us to employ
additional resources to fix the errors or defects, exposing us to litigation, claims, and harm to our reputation.
Any of the foregoing security risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
We must attract, retain, and motivate highly skilled employees.
To remain competitive, we must attract, retain, and motivate executives and other highly skilled, diverse employees, as well as effectively
manage succession for key employees. Competition for experienced employees in our industry can be intense. Hiring and retaining qualified
executives and other employees is critical to our business. If our total compensation programs, employment benefits, and workplace culture
are not viewed as competitive and inclusive, our ability to attract, retain, and motivate employees could be compromised.
At times, we experience higher levels of attrition, increasing compensation costs, and more intense competition for talent across our industry.
To the extent we experience significant attrition and are unable to timely replace employees, we could experience a loss of critical skills andreduced employee morale, potentially resulting in business disruptions or increased expenses to address any disruptions. Additionally,changes to immigration policies in the countries in which we operate, as well as restrictions on travel due to public health crises or othercauses, may limit our ability to hire and/or retain talent in, or transfer talent to, specific locations.
Our inability to attract, retain, and motivate executives and other employees or effectively manage succession of key roles may inhibit ourability to maintain or expand our business operations.
We may not be able to achieve expected returns from capacity expansions.
We have announced our intent to expand our DRAM production capacity in the United States and we also make capital investments inprojects outside the United States.
These expansions involve several risks including the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

capital expenditure requirements for capacity expansions during periods of relatively low free cash flow generation, resulting fromchallenging memory and storage industry conditions;availability of necessary funding, which may include external sources;ability to realize expected grants, investment tax credits, and other government incentives, including through the CHIPS Act andforeign, state, and local grants;
potential changes in laws or provisions of grants, investment tax credits, and other government incentives;potential restrictions on expanding in certain geographies;
availability of equipment and construction materials;
ability to complete construction as scheduled and within budget;
availability of the necessary workforce;
ability to timely ramp production in a cost-effective manner;increases to our cost structure until new production is ramped to adequate scale; andsufficient customer demand to utilize our increased capacity.

We invest our capital in areas that we believe best align with our business strategy and optimize future returns. Investments in capital
expenditures may not generate expected returns or cash flows. Significant judgment is required to determine which capital investments will
result in optimal returns, and we could invest in projects that are ultimately less profitable than those projects we do not select. Delays incompletion and ramping of new production facilities, or failure to optimize our investment choices, could significantly impact our ability torealize expected returns on our capital expenditures.

Any of the above factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Our incentives from various governments are conditional upon achieving or maintaining certain performance or other obligations
and are subject to reduction, termination, clawback, or could impose certain limitations on our business.
We have received, and may in the future continue to receive, benefits and incentives from national, state, and local governments in various
regions of the world designed to encourage us to establish, maintain, or increase investment, workforce, or production in those regions.
These incentives may take various forms, including grants, loan subsidies, and tax arrangements, and typically require us to achieve or
maintain certain levels of investment, capital spending, employment, technology deployment, or research and development activities toqualify for such incentives or could restrict us from undertaking certain activities. We may be unable to obtain significant future incentives tocontinue to fund a portion of our capital expenditures and operating costs, without which our cost structure would be adversely impacted. We
also cannot guarantee that we will successfully achieve performance or other obligations required to qualify for these incentives or that the
granting agencies will provide such funding. These incentive arrangements typically provide the granting agencies with rights to audit ourcompliance with their terms and obligations. Such audits could result in modifications to, or termination of, the applicable incentive program.
The incentives we receive could be subject to reduction, termination, or clawback, and any decrease or clawback of government incentives
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Acquisitions and/or alliances involve numerous risks.
Acquisitions and the formation or operation of alliances, such as joint ventures and other partnering arrangements, involve numerous risks,
including the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

integrating the operations, technologies, and products of acquired or newly formed entities into our operations;increasing capital expenditures to upgrade and maintain facilities;
increased debt levels;
the assumption of unknown or underestimated liabilities;
the use of cash to finance a transaction, which may reduce the availability of cash to fund working capital, capital expenditures, R&D
expenditures, and other business activities;
diverting management’s attention from daily operations;managing larger or more complex operations and facilities and employees in separate and diverse geographic areas;hiring and retaining key employees;
requirements imposed by government authorities in connection with the regulatory review of a transaction, which may include,
among other things, divestitures or restrictions on the conduct of our business or the acquired business;underestimating the costs or overestimating the benefits, including product, revenue, cost and other synergies and growth
opportunities that we expect to realize, and we may not achieve those benefits;
failure to maintain customer, vendor, and other relationships;
inadequacy or ineffectiveness of an acquired company’s internal financial controls, disclosure controls and procedures, complianceprograms, and/or environmental, health and safety, anti-corruption, human resource, or other policies or practices; andimpairment of acquired intangible assets, goodwill, or other assets as a result of changing business conditions or technologicaladvancements.

The global memory and storage industry has experienced consolidation and may continue to consolidate. We engage, from time to time, indiscussions regarding potential acquisitions and similar opportunities. To the extent we are successful in completing any such transactions,
we could be subject to some or all of the risks described above, including the risks pertaining to funding, assumption of liabilities, integration
challenges, and increases in debt that may accompany such transactions. Acquisitions of, or alliances with, technology companies are
inherently risky and may not be successful and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial
condition.

We have incurred restructure charges and may incur restructure charges in future periods and may not realize expected savings orother benefits from restructure activities.
In 2023, we initiated a restructure plan in response to current market conditions. See “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial
Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Restructure and Asset Impairments” and “Part I. Financial Information – Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview.” In addition, we may in the future,enter into other restructure initiatives in order to, among other items, streamline our operations, respond to changes in business conditions,
our markets, or product offerings, or to centralize certain key functions.
We may not realize expected savings or other benefits from our current or future restructure activities and may incur additional restructure
charges or other losses in future periods associated with other initiatives. In connection with any restructure initiatives, we could incur
restructure charges, loss of production output, loss of key personnel, disruptions in our operations, and difficulties in the timely delivery of
products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Compliance with responsible sourcing requirements and any related regulations could increase our operating costs, or limit the
supply and increase the cost of certain materials, supplies, and services, and if we fail to comply, customers may reducepurchases from us or disqualify us as a supplier.
We and many of our customers have adopted responsible sourcing programs that require us to meet certain ESG criteria, and to periodicallyreport on our performance against these requirements, including that we source the materials, supplies, and services we use and incorporate
into the products we sell as prescribed by these programs. Many customer programs require us to remove a supplier within a prescribedperiod if such supplier ceases to comply with prescribed criteria, and our supply chain may at any time contain suppliers at risk of being
removed due to non-compliance with responsible sourcing requirements. Some of our customers may elect to disqualify us as a supplier(resulting in a permanent or temporary loss of sales to such customer) or reduce purchases from us if we are unable to verify that our
performance or products (including the underlying supply chain) meet the specifications of our customers’ responsible sourcing programs on
a continuous basis. Meeting responsible sourcing requirements may increase operating requirements and costs or limit the sourcing andavailability of some of the materials, supplies, and services we use, particularly when the availability of such materials, supplies, and services
is concentrated to a limited number of suppliers. From time to time, we remove suppliers or require our suppliers to remove suppliers fromtheir supply chains based on our responsible sourcing requirements or customer requirements, and we or our suppliers may be unable toreplace such removed suppliers in a timely or cost-effective manner. Any inability to replace removed suppliers in a timely or cost effective
manner may affect our ability and/or the cost to obtain sufficient quantities of materials, supplies, and services necessary for the manufactureof our products. Our inability to replace suppliers we have removed in a timely or cost-effective manner or comply with customers’
responsible sourcing requirements or with any related regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations,or financial condition.

Failure to meet ESG expectations or standards or achieve our ESG goals could adversely affect our business, results ofoperations, financial condition, or stock price.
In recent years, there has been an increased focus from stakeholders on ESG matters, including greenhouse gas emissions and climaterelated risks, renewable energy, water stewardship, waste management, diversity, equality and inclusion, responsible sourcing and supply
chain, human rights, and social responsibility. Given our commitment to ESG, we actively manage these issues and have established andpublicly announced certain goals, commitments, and targets which we may refine or even expand further in the future. These goals,
commitments, and targets reflect our current plans and aspirations and are not guarantees that we will be able to achieve them. Evolving
stakeholder expectations and our efforts to manage these issues, report on them, and accomplish our goals present numerous operational,
regulatory, reputational, financial, legal, and other risks, any of which could have a material adverse impact, including on our reputation andstock price.
Such risks and uncertainties include:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

reputational harm, including damage to our relationships with customers, suppliers, investors, governments, or other stakeholders;adverse impacts on our ability to sell and manufacture products;
the success of our collaborations with third parties;
increased risk of litigation, investigations, or regulatory enforcement action;
unfavorable ESG ratings or investor sentiment;
diversion of resources and increased costs to control, assess, and report on ESG metrics;
our ability to achieve our goals, commitments, and targets within timeframes announced;
increased costs to achieve our goals, commitments, and targets;
unforeseen operational and technological difficulties;
access to and increased cost of capital; andadverse impacts on our stock price.

Any failure, or perceived failure, to meet evolving stakeholder expectations and industry standards or achieve our ESG goals, commitments,
and targets could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, or stock price.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property and Litigation
We may be unable to protect our intellectual property or retain key employees who are knowledgeable of and develop our
intellectual property.
We maintain a system of controls over our intellectual property, including U.S. and foreign patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets,
licensing arrangements, confidentiality procedures, non-disclosure agreements with employees, consultants, and vendors, and a generalsystem of internal controls. Despite our system of controls over our intellectual property, it may be possible for our current or futurecompetitors to obtain, copy, use, or disclose, illegally or otherwise, our product and process technology or other proprietary information. The
laws of some foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property to the same degree as do U.S. laws, and our confidentiality, nondisclosure, and non-compete agreements may be unenforceable or difficult and costly to enforce.
Additionally, our ability to maintain and develop intellectual property is dependent upon our ability to attract, develop, and retain highly skilledemployees. If our competitors or future entrants into our industry are successful in hiring our employees, they may directly benefit from theknowledge these employees gained while they were under our employment, and this may also negatively impact our ability to maintain anddevelop intellectual property.
Our inability to protect our intellectual property or retain key employees who are knowledgeable of and develop our intellectual property could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Legal proceedings and claims could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise out of the ordinary conduct of our business or otherwise,both domestically and internationally. Such claims include, but are not limited to, allegations of anticompetitive conduct and infringement ofintellectual property. See “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements –Contingencies.”
Any claim, with or without merit, could result in significant legal fees that could negatively impact our financial results, disrupt our operations,and require significant attention from our management. We may be associated with and subject to litigation, claims, or arbitration disputes
arising from, or as a result of:••••our relationships with vendors or customers, supply agreements, or contractual obligations with our subcontractors or business
partners;
the actions of our vendors, subcontractors, or business partners;
our indemnification obligations, including obligations to defend our customers against third-party claims asserting infringement ofcertain intellectual property rights, which may include patents, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secrets; andthe terms of our product warranties or from product liability claims.

As we continue to focus on developing system solutions with manufacturers of consumer products, including autonomous driving, augmented
reality, and others, we may be exposed to greater potential for personal liability claims against us as a result of consumers’ use of those
products. We, our officers, or our directors could also be subject to claims of alleged violations of securities laws. There can be no assurance
that we are adequately insured to protect against all claims and potential liabilities, and we may elect to self-insure with respect to certain
matters. Exposures to various legal proceedings and claims could lead to significant costs and expenses as we defend claims, are required
to pay damage awards, or enter into settlement agreements, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results ofoperations, or financial condition.
Claims that our products or manufacturing processes infringe or otherwise violate the intellectual property rights of others, or
failure to obtain or renew license agreements covering such intellectual property, could materially adversely affect our business,
results of operations, or financial condition.
As is typical in the semiconductor and other high technology industries, from time to time others have asserted, and may in the future assert,
that our products or manufacturing processes infringe upon, misappropriate, misuse, or otherwise violate their intellectual property rights. We
are unable to predict the outcome of these assertions made against us. Any of these types of claims, regardless of the merits, could subject
us to significant costs to defend or resolve such claims and may consume a substantial portion of management’s time and attention. As aresult of these claims, we may be required to:••••

pay significant monetary damages, fines, royalties, or penalties;
enter into license or settlement agreements covering such intellectual property rights;
make material changes to or redesign our products and/or manufacturing processes; and/or
cease manufacturing, having made, selling, offering for sale, importing, marketing, or using products and/or manufacturing processes
in certain jurisdictions.

We may not be able to take any of the actions described above on commercially reasonable terms and any of the foregoing results could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition. See “Part I. Financial Information – Item 1.
Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Contingencies.”
We have a number of intellectual property license agreements. Some of these license agreements require us to make one-time or periodic
payments. We may need to obtain additional licenses or renew existing license agreements in the future. We are unable to predict whether
these license agreements can be obtained or renewed on terms acceptable to us. The failure to obtain or renew licenses as necessary could
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Risks Related to Laws and Regulations
Government actions and regulations, such as export restrictions, tariffs, and trade protection measures, may limit our ability to sell
our products to certain customers or markets, or could otherwise restrict our ability to conduct operations.
International trade disputes, geopolitical tensions, and military conflicts have led, and continue to lead, to new and increasing export
restrictions, trade barriers, tariffs, and other trade measures that can increase our manufacturing costs, make our products less competitive,
reduce demand for our products, limit our ability to sell to certain customers or markets, limit our ability to procure, or increase our costs for,components or raw materials, impede or slow the movement of our goods across borders, impede our ability to perform R&D activities, orotherwise restrict our ability to conduct operations. Increasing protectionism, economic nationalism, and national security concerns may leadto further changes in trade policy, domestic sourcing initiatives, or other formal and informal measures that could make it more difficult to sell
our products in, or restrict our access to, some markets and/or customers.
We cannot predict what further actions may ultimately be taken with respect to export regulations, tariffs, or other trade regulations between
the United States and other countries, what products or companies may be subject to such actions, or what actions may be taken by othercountries in retaliation. Further changes in trade policy, tariffs, restrictions on exports or other trade barriers, or restrictions on supplies,
equipment, and raw materials including rare earth minerals, may limit our ability to produce products, increase our selling and/or
manufacturing costs, decrease margins, reduce the competitiveness of our products, or inhibit our ability to sell products or purchasenecessary equipment and supplies. Such changes may also result in reputational harm to us, the development or adoption of technologies
that compete with our products, long-term changes in global trade and technology supply chains, or negative impacts on our customers’
products which incorporate our solutions. Any of the effects described in this risk factor could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations, or financial condition.
The technology industry is subject to intense media, political, and regulatory scrutiny, which can increase our exposure to government
investigations, legal actions, and penalties. Although we have policies, controls, and procedures designed to help ensure compliance withapplicable laws, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, suppliers, or agents will not violate such laws or our policies.
Violations of trade laws, restrictions, or regulations can result in fines; criminal sanctions against us or our officers, directors, or employees;
prohibitions on the conduct of our business; and damage to our reputation.
Tax-related matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
We are subject to income taxes in the United States and many foreign jurisdictions. Our provision for income taxes and cash tax liabilities in
the future could be adversely affected by numerous factors, including changes in the geographic mix of our earnings among jurisdictions,mandatory capitalization of R&D expenses beginning in 2023, challenges by tax authorities to our tax positions and intercompany transfer
pricing arrangements, failure to meet performance obligations with respect to tax incentive agreements, expanding our operations in various
countries, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, adverse resolution of audits and examinations of previously filed tax returns, andchanges in tax laws and regulations.
Changes to income tax laws and regulations, or the interpretation of such laws, in any of the jurisdictions in which we operate could
significantly increase our effective tax rate and ultimately reduce our cash flows from operating activities and otherwise have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition. Beginning in 2024, the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 imposes a 15% book minimum tax on
corporations with three-year average annual adjusted financial statement income exceeding $1 billion. We are in the process of assessing
whether the book minimum tax would impact our effective tax rate. Further changes in the tax laws of foreign jurisdictions could arise as aresult of the base erosion and profit shifting project undertaken by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”).
In December 2022, the European Union (“EU”) member states reached an agreement to implement the minimum tax component (“Pillar
Two”) of the OECD’s tax reform initiative. The directive is expected to be enacted into the national law of the EU member states by
December 31, 2023. If similar directives under Pillar Two are adopted by taxing authorities in other countries where we do business, suchchanges could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

We and others are subject to a variety of laws, regulations, or industry standards, including with respect to ESG considerations,which may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
The manufacture of our products requires the use of facilities, equipment, and materials that are subject to a broad array of laws andregulations in numerous jurisdictions in which we operate. Additionally, we are subject to a variety of other laws and regulations relative to theconstruction, maintenance, and operations of our facilities. Any changes in laws, regulations, or industry standards could cause us to incur
additional direct costs, as well as increased indirect costs related to our relationships with our customers and suppliers, and otherwise harm
our operations and financial condition. Any failure to comply with laws, regulations, or industry standards could adversely impact our
reputation and our financial results. Additionally, we engage various third parties as sales channel partners or to represent us or otherwise
act on our behalf who are also subject to a broad array of laws, regulations, and industry standards. Our engagement with these third parties
may also expose us to risks associated with their respective compliance with laws and regulations.
New ESG considerations, including those related to climate change and the potential resulting environmental impact, may result in new laws,
regulations, or industry standards that may affect us, our suppliers, and our customers. Such laws, regulations, or industry standards could
cause us to incur additional direct costs for compliance, as well as increased indirect costs resulting from our customers, suppliers, or bothincurring additional compliance costs that are passed on to us. These costs may adversely impact our results of operations and financial
condition.
As a result of the items detailed in this risk factor, we could experience the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•

suspension of production or sales of our products;
remediation costs;
increased compliance costs;
alteration of our manufacturing processes;
regulatory penalties, fines, and legal liabilities; andreputational challenges.

Compliance with, or our failure, or the failure of our third-party sales channel partners or agents, to comply with, laws, regulations, or industry
standards could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Risks Related to Capitalization and Financial Markets
We may be unable to generate sufficient cash flows or obtain access to external financing necessary to fund our operations, makescheduled debt payments, pay our dividend, and make adequate capital investments.
Our cash flows from operations depend primarily on the volume of semiconductor memory and storage products sold, average selling prices,and manufacturing costs. To develop new product and process technology, support future growth, achieve operating efficiencies, andmaintain product quality, we must make significant capital investments in manufacturing technology, capital equipment, facilities, R&D, andproduct and process technology. We estimate capital expenditures in 2023 for property, plant, and equipment, net of partner contributions,will be approximately $7.0 billion.
In the past, we have utilized external sources of financing when needed. As a result of our debt levels, expected debt amortization, prevailinginterest rates, and general capital market and other economic conditions, it may be difficult for us to obtain financing on terms acceptable tous or at all. We have experienced volatility in our cash flows and operating results and we expect to continue to experience such volatility inthe future, which may negatively affect our credit rating. Our credit rating may also be affected by our liquidity, financial results, economic risk,
or other factors, which may increase the cost of future borrowings and make it difficult for us to obtain financing on terms acceptable to us orat all. There can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flows, access capital or credit markets, or find other sourcesof financing to fund our operations, make debt payments, refinance our debt, pay our quarterly dividend, and make adequate capital
investments to remain competitive in terms of technology development and cost efficiency. Our inability to do any of the foregoing could havea material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Debt obligations could adversely affect our financial condition.
We have incurred in the past, and expect to incur in the future, debt to finance our capital investments, business acquisitions, and to realignour capital structure. As of March 2, 2023, we had debt with a carrying value of $12.27 billion and may incur additional debt, including under
our $2.50 billion Revolving Credit Facility. Our debt obligations could adversely impact us as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

require us to use a large portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on debt, which will reduce the amount of cash flow
available to fund our business activities;
adversely impact our credit rating, which could increase future borrowing costs;
limit our future ability to raise funds for capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions or business opportunities, R&D, and other general
corporate requirements;
restrict our ability to incur specified indebtedness, create or incur certain liens, and enter into sale-leaseback financing transactions;increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions;increase our exposure to rising interest rates from variable rate indebtedness; andresult in certain of our debt instruments becoming immediately due and payable or being deemed to be in default if applicable crossdefault, cross-acceleration and/or similar provisions are triggered.

57

Table of Contents

Our ability to meet our payment obligations under our debt instruments depends on our ability to generate significant cash flows or obtain
external financing in the future. This, to some extent, is subject to market, economic, financial, competitive, legislative, and regulatory factors
as well as other factors that are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that our business will generate cash flow from operations, orthat additional capital will be available to us, in amounts sufficient to enable us to meet our debt payment obligations and to fund otherliquidity needs. Additionally, events and circumstances may occur which would cause us to not be able to satisfy applicable draw-down
conditions and utilize our Revolving Credit Facility. In light of current industry conditions, we amended the financial covenants in our
Revolving Credit Facility and term loan agreements. See “Part I. Financial Information - Item 1. Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements – Debt.” If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flows to service our debt payment obligations or satisfy our debt
covenants, we may need to refinance, restructure, or amend the terms of our debt, sell assets, reduce or delay capital investments, or seek
to raise additional capital. If we are unable to implement one or more of these alternatives, we may be unable to meet our debt payment
obligations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Changes in foreign currency exchange rates could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, or financial
condition.
Across our global operations, significant transactions and balances are denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar (our reporting
currency), primarily the euro, Malaysian ringgit, Singapore dollar, New Taiwan dollar, and yen. In addition, a significant portion of ourmanufacturing costs are denominated in foreign currencies. Exchange rates for some of these currencies against the U.S. dollar have beenvolatile and may be volatile in future periods. If these currencies strengthen against the U.S. dollar, our manufacturing costs could
significantly increase. Exchange rates for the U.S. dollar that adversely change against our foreign currency exposures could have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
We are subject to counterparty default risks.
We have numerous arrangements with financial institutions that subject us to counterparty default risks, including cash deposits,
investments, and derivative instruments. Additionally, we are subject to counterparty default risk from our customers for amounts receivablefrom them. As a result, we are subject to the risk that the counterparty will default on its performance obligations. A counterparty may notcomply with its contractual commitments which could then lead to its defaulting on its obligations with little or no notice to us, which could limit
our ability to mitigate our exposure. Additionally, our ability to mitigate our exposures may be constrained by the terms of our contractual
arrangements or because market conditions prevent us from taking effective action. If one of our counterparties becomes insolvent or files forbankruptcy, our ability to recover any losses suffered as a result of that counterparty’s default may be limited by the liquidity of thecounterparty or the applicable laws governing the bankruptcy proceedings. In the event of such default, we could incur significant losses,
which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
The trading price of our common stock has been and may continue to be volatile.
Our common stock has experienced substantial price volatility in the past and may continue to do so in the future. Additionally, we, thetechnology industry, and the stock market as a whole have on occasion experienced extreme stock price and volume fluctuations that haveaffected stock prices in ways that may have been unrelated to the specific operating performance of individual companies. The trading priceof our common stock may fluctuate widely due to various factors, including, but not limited to, actual or anticipated fluctuations in our financial
condition and operating results, changes in financial forecasts or estimates by us or financial or other market estimates and ratings by
securities and other analysts, changes in our capital structure, including issuance of additional debt or equity to the public, interest ratechanges, regulatory changes, news regarding our products or products of our competitors, and broad market and industry fluctuations.
For these reasons, investors should not rely on recent or historical trends to predict future trading prices of our common stock, financial
condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Investors in our common stock may not realize any return on their investment in us and may
lose some or all of their investment. Volatility in the trading price of our common stock could also result in the filing of securities class action
litigation matters, which could result in substantial costs and the diversion of management time and resources.

The amount and frequency of our share repurchases may fluctuate, and we cannot guarantee that we will fully consummate ourshare repurchase authorization, or that it will enhance long-term shareholder value. Share repurchases could also increase thevolatility of the trading price of our stock and will diminish our cash reserves.
The amount, timing, and execution of our share repurchases pursuant to our share repurchase authorization may fluctuate based on ouroperating results, cash flows, and priorities for the use of cash for other purposes. Our expenditures for share repurchases were $2.43 billion
in 2022, $1.20 billion in 2021, $176 million in 2020, and $2.66 billion in 2019. These other purposes include, but are not limited to,operational spending, capital spending, acquisitions, and repayment of debt. Other factors, including changes in tax laws, could also impact
our share repurchases. Although our Board of Directors has authorized share repurchases of up to $10 billion of our outstanding common
stock, the authorization does not obligate us to repurchase any common stock.
We cannot guarantee that our share repurchase authorization will be fully consummated or that it will enhance long-term shareholder value.
The repurchase authorization could affect the trading price of our stock and increase volatility, and any announcement of a pause in, or
termination of, this program may result in a decrease in the trading price of our stock. In addition, this program will diminish our cash
reserves.
There can be no assurance that we will continue to declare cash dividends in any particular amounts or at all.
Our Board of Directors has adopted a dividend policy pursuant to which we currently pay a cash dividend on our common shares on aquarterly basis. The declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the approval of our Board of Directors and our dividend may bediscontinued or reduced at any time. There can be no assurance that we will declare cash dividends in the future in any particular amounts,
or at all.
Future dividends, if any, and their timing and amount, may be affected by, among other factors: our financial condition, results of operations,capital requirements, business conditions, debt service obligations, contractual restrictions, industry practice, legal requirements, regulatory
constraints, and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant. A reduction in or elimination of our dividend payments could
have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDSIn May 2018, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the discretionary repurchase of up to $10 billion of our outstanding
common stock through open-market purchases, block trades, privately-negotiated transactions, derivative transactions, and/or pursuant toRule 10b5-1 trading plans. The repurchase authorization has no expiration date, does not obligate us to acquire any common stock, and issubject to market conditions and our ongoing determination of the best use of available cash. During the quarter ended March 2, 2023, we
did not repurchase any common stock under the authorization and as of March 2, 2023, $3.11 billion of the authorization remained available
for the repurchase of our common stock.
Shares of common stock withheld as payment of withholding taxes and exercise prices in connection with the vesting or exercise of equity
awards are also treated as common stock repurchases. Those withheld shares of common stock are not required to be disclosed under Item
703 of Regulation S-K and accordingly are excluded from this Item 2.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
The information set forth below in this Item 5 is included herein in lieu of reporting on a Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 1.01 Entry
into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Amendments to Term Loan Agreement, 2024 Term Loan A, and Revolving Credit Facility.
On March 27, 2023, we entered into amendments to our Term Loan Agreement, 2024 Term Loan A, and Revolving Credit Facility (the“Amendments”). The descriptions of the Amendments below are not intended to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference tothe full text of the Amendments, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4, respectively, and are incorporated hereinby reference.
Amendment to Term Loan Agreement
As previously disclosed, on November 3, 2022, we entered into a term loan agreement consisting of three tranches and borrowed $2.60
billion in aggregate principal amount, including $927 million due November 3, 2025; $746 million due November 3, 2026; and $927 million
due November 3, 2027 (the “Term Loan Agreement”).
On January 5, 2023, we amended the Term Loan Agreement and borrowed an additional $600 million in aggregate principal amount,
including $125 million due November 3, 2025, $250 million due November 3, 2026, and $225 million due November 3, 2027. The additionalborrowings have terms that are identical to, and will be treated as a single class with, the three original tranches.
The 2026 Term Loan A and 2027 Term Loan A each require equal quarterly installment payments in an amount equal to 1.25% of the original
principal amount. The 2025 Term Loan A does not require quarterly installment payments. Borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement will
generally bear interest at adjusted term SOFR plus an applicable interest rate margin ranging from 1.00% to 2.00%, varying by tranche anddepending on our corporate credit ratings. The Term Loan Agreement requires us to maintain, on a consolidated basis, a leverage ratio of
total indebtedness to adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the Term Loan Agreement and calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, not toexceed 3.25 to 1.00, except as described below.
On March 27, 2023, we further amended the Term Loan Agreement to provide that in lieu of the foregoing leverage ratio, during the fourth

Re: Agreed Salary Reduction
Dear [Name],
I am writing to follow up on the recent communications about the proposed changes to your salary in connection with youremployment with Micron Technology, Inc. (‘Micron’) and similar reductions in compensation for your peer group. In light of thecurrent challenging business environment, Micron is asking you to prospectively confirm your acceptance of the followingchanges to your base salary and related arrangements in order to, among other things, help reduce costs and protect ourbusiness:
Beginning on February 5, 2023, your gross annual base salary will be reduced by [ ]% to USD [ ] for the remainder of Micron’s
fiscal year 2023.
Any payment, benefit or entitlement calculated by reference to your base salary (including but not limited to leave payments,
retirement contributions, and incentive pay (if applicable)) will be calculated based on your reduced base salary for theremainder of fiscal year 2023, except to the extent otherwise required by law or as expressly provided under any applicable
employment agreement. However, for purposes of any written agreement with Micron (such as an offer letter, severance orchange in control agreement) that contains severance that is calculated based on your base salary, the reduction describedabove will not apply. In other words, if you qualify for severance, your severance amount that is based on your base salary (butnot other elements of severance such as incentive and equity compensation) will be calculated as if the above base salary
reduction did not occur.
All other terms of your employment remain in full force and effect other than as varied by this letter. In particular, we do notbelieve that this reduction in pay creates a breach of any employment agreement between you and Micron or provides the basis
for a “good reason” termination (or under any similar concept) under any employment or other agreement with Micron.
Please let us know if you have any questions. Otherwise, we would be grateful if you could confirm your agreement and consent
to the above by signing in the space indicated below as soon as possible and in no event by later than [ ], [February ], 2023.
Thank you for your support, professionalism and key leadership in this difficult time.
Yours sincerely,[Name of Signatory][Title of Signatory]_______________________________________________________________________

I confirm that I have read and understand the above, and that I agree and consent to the changes set out above. I also confirm
that all other terms of my employment agreements with Micron remain in full force and effect and that this reduction in pay does
not constitute a breach of any employment agreements with Micron or provide the basis for me to terminate for “good reason”(or under any similar concept) under any employment, compensation, severance, change in control or other agreements with
Micron.
