Item 3.Legal Proceedings  

As previously disclosed, the Company cooperated with the Department of Commerce (“DOC”) in connection with its administrative investigation regarding certain transactions by the Company. On July 2, 2025, the Company announced that it reached a settlement agreement with DOC to close its investigation, pursuant to which the Company agreed to make a one-time payment of $4.25 million. The resolution does not impact the Company’s ongoing business operations.

We have in the past, and may from time to time in the future, become involved in legal proceedings arising from the normal course of business activities.  The semiconductor industry is characterized by frequent claims and litigation, including claims regarding patent and other intellectual property rights as well as improper hiring practices. Irrespective of the validity of such claims, we could incur significant costs in the defense thereof or could suffer adverse effects on our operations.
