 Common Stock may be volatile and subject to wide price fluctuations in response to various factors including:

changes in financial estimates, including our ability to meet our future revenue and operating profit or loss projections;

changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;

fluctuations in our operating results or those of our customers, operators or other semiconductor companies;

commercial deployment and upgrade of 4G and 5G wireless networks;

economic developments in the semiconductor or mobile and wireless industries as a whole;

general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of related markets;

announcements by us or our customers or competitors of acquisitions, new products, significant contracts or orders, commercial relationships or capital commitments;

announcements regarding intellectual property litigation involving us or our competitors;

changes in the financial estimates of our competitors;

our ability to develop and market new and enhanced products on a timely basis;

changes in the pricing and costs of manufacturing;

commencement of or our involvement in litigation;

any major change in our board of directors or management;

political or social conditions in the markets where we sell our products; and

changes in governmental regulations.

If any of our stockholders were to bring a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit. Such a lawsuit could also divert the time and attention of our management from our business.

From time to time, we have issued and we expect we will continue to issue stock options or restricted stock grants or similar awards to employees, officers, and directors pursuant to our equity incentive award plans. Investors in our equity securities may experience dilution as these awards vest and are exercised by their holders and as the restrictions lapse on the restricted stock grants. We also may issue Common Stock, preferred stock or warrants of the Company to purchase Common Stock or preferred stock to raise capital to fund our growth initiatives in connection with acquisitions or the settlement of obligations or indebtedness, which
