Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 of $747 million decreased $286 million compared to the cash used in investing activities of $1,033 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by $282 million lower purchases of marketable securities, higher proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities of $128 million, and increased proceeds from the sales of property, plant and equipment of $127 million, primarily related to tool sales. This was offset by higher acquisition costs of $162 million, a $65 million increase in purchases of equity securities and $24 million increase in purchases of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.
