**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Tower Semiconductor Ltd.

#### Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tower Semiconductor Ltd. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

#### Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

#### Income Taxes – Income Tax Provision – Refer to Note 18 to the financial statements

#### Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company's provision for income taxes is affected by income taxes in a multinational tax environment. The income tax provision is an estimate determined based on current enacted tax laws and tax rates at each of its geographic locations with the use of acceptable allocation methodologies based upon the Company's organizational structure, the Company's operations and business mode of work, and result in applicable local taxable income attributable to those locations. For the year-ended December 31, 2025, the consolidated provision for income taxes was $21.6 million comprised of amounts related to Israel, Japan, U.S. and Italy operations, as detailed in Note 18.

We identified management's determination of the taxable income and its related income tax provision as a critical audit matter because of the significant judgements and estimates management makes related to the charges between the sites located in different tax jurisdictions and the consideration of different tax status in each jurisdiction. This required a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our income tax specialists, when performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management's estimate of the income tax provision.

#### How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the determination of the taxable income allocation and income tax provision included the following, among others:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We obtained the taxable income allocation used in calculating the income tax provision and tested that the taxable income allocation between Israel and corporate operations and the other subsidiaries is appropriate based on the specified services and margins determined in the Company's transfer pricing studies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We tested the effectiveness of controls over the Company's process to allocate its taxable income between the different subsidiaries based on the Company's transfer pricing studies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We read and evaluated management's documentation, including information obtained by management from external tax specialists that detailed the basis of the uncertain tax positions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• With the assistance of our income tax specialists, we evaluated:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The appropriateness of the transfer pricing analysis, including the transfer pricing methods and profit level indicators and ranges provided within the transfer pricing studies conducted by the Company's external tax specialists.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The appropriateness of the transfer pricing methodology implemented by management as provided in the transfer pricing studies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The relevant facts by reading the Company's correspondence with the relevant tax authorities and any third-party advice obtained by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Company's measurement of uncertain tax positions related to transfer pricing based on our knowledge of international and local income tax laws, as well as historical settlement activity from income tax authorities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Basis of Presentation** 

The Company's consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("US GAAP").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements** 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** **Principals of Consolidation** 

The Company's consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Tower and its subsidiaries. The Company's consolidated financial statements are presented after the elimination of inter-company transactions and balances.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **Reclassifications** 

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**E.** **Cash and Cash Equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, highly liquid bank deposits and money market funds readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of three months or less as of the date of its purchase.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**F.** **Short Term Interest-Bearing Deposits** 

Short-term deposits include bank deposits with original maturities greater than three months and with remaining maturities of less than one year. Such deposits are presented at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates their fair value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**G.** **Trade Accounts Receivable - Allowance for Expected Credit Loss** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The Company maintains an allowance based on specific analysis of each customer account receivable's aging, assessment of its related risk and ability of the customer to make the required payment. In addition, in accordance with ASC 326, *"Financial Instruments - Credit Losses"*, an allowance is maintained for such estimated expected losses. The amount of the allowance is determined principally on the basis of past collection experience and known financial factors regarding specific customers. Trade accounts receivable are written off using this allowance when it is probable that collection will not occur. Credit is extended to customers satisfying pre-defined credit criteria.<br>The total allowance for expected credit losses was $4,602 and $4,982 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**H.** **Inventories** 

Inventories are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or net realizable value. If inventory costs exceed expected net realizable value, the Company writes down the difference between the cost and the expected net realizable value. Cost of raw materials is determined mainly on the basis of the weighted average moving price per unit. Work in progress is measured at cost including acquisition costs, processing costs and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present stage.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**I.** **Investments in Privately Held Companies** 

Long-term investments include equity investments in privately-held companies without readily determinable fair values. In accordance with ASC 321 - *"Investments - Equity Securities",* the Company may elect to measure those investments either at fair value, or at cost less any impairment and changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer ("Measurement Alternative"). The Company elected to use the Measurement Alternative for each of its investments. Any adjustments resulting from impairments and/or observable price changes are recorded under "other income (expense), net" in the consolidated statements of operations. See also Note 2L below.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**J.** **Property and Equipment** 

The Company accounts for property and equipment in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ASC 360 "*Accounting for the Property, Plant and Equipment*". Property and equipment are presented at cost, including capitalizable costs. Capitalizable costs include only costs that are identifiable with, and related to, the property and equipment, and are incurred prior to their initial operation. Identifiable incremental direct costs include costs associated with constructing, establishing, and installing facilities and equipment, as well as technology transfer.<br>

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred.

Property and equipment are presented net of investment grants and government subsidies received and less accumulated depreciation.

Depreciation is calculated based on the straight-line method over the Company's estimated useful lives of the assets, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Buildings and building improvements, including facility infrastructure: 7-25 years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Machinery and equipment: 15 years.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Software, hardware and others: 3-11 years.

<br> Impairment charges, if needed, are determined based on the policy outlined in Note 2L below. <br>

Property and equipment also include assets under capital leases, which are depreciated over their applicable useful life.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**K.** **Intangible Assets and Goodwill** 

The Company accounts for intangible assets and goodwill in accordance with ASC 350 "*Intangibles-Goodwill and Other*". Intangible assets include the values assigned to the intangible assets as part of the purchase price allocation made at the time of acquisition. Intangible assets are amortized over the expected estimated economic life commonly used in the industry. Goodwill is not amortized and subject to impairment testing. Impairment charges on intangibles or goodwill, if needed, are determined based on the policy outlined in Note 2L below.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**L.** **Impairment of Assets** 

Impairment of Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets and intangible assets on a periodic basis, as well as when such review is required based upon relevant circumstances, to determine whether events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable, considering the undiscounted cash flows expected from them. If applicable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based upon the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of such assets, in accordance with ASC 360-10 "*Property, Plant and Equipment*". As of December 31, 2025, the Company concluded there was no impairment required to its long-lived assets and intangible assets.<br>

Impairment of Goodwill

The Company performs a qualitative analysis when testing goodwill for impairment. A qualitative goodwill impairment test is performed when the fair value of a reporting unit historically has significantly exceeded the carrying value of its net assets and based on current operations is expected to continue to exceed it. Otherwise, the Company is required to conduct a quantitative impairment test and estimate the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of an income approach based on discounted cash flow analysis and a market approach based on market multiples. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, a goodwill impairment charge is recorded for the difference. As of December 31, 2025, the Company performed a qualitative impairment test for its reporting unit and concluded there was no impairment of goodwill.<br>

Impairment of Investment in Privately Held Companies

Investments in privately held companies accounted for using the Measurement Alternative are subject to periodic impairment reviews. Based on ASC 321-10-35-3, the Company's impairment analysis considers qualitative factors to evaluate whether the investment is impaired.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**M.** **Leases** 

The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset ("ROU") and lease liability for all operating and capital leases with a term greater than twelve months upon lease arrangement inception.

ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the terms of lease contracts. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Since most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company's incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease terms used to calculate the ROU asset and related lease liability include options to terminate the lease or extend it when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense. For additional information, see Notes 9D and 9E.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**N.** **Revenue Recognition** 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 "*Revenue from Contracts with Customers*" when it transfers the control of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.<br>

The Company's revenue is generated principally from providing its customers with manufacturing services it performs over wafers it processes in its various fabrications located around the globe through its engineering and technological facilities' process platforms and equipment, as well as revenue from its design and technology support services. Most of the Company's sales are achieved through the effort of its direct sales and business development force.<br>

Wafer sales typically contain a single performance obligation that is fulfilled on the date of delivery and recognized at a point in time, which is upon shipment of the Company's products to unaffiliated customers, depending on shipping terms stipulated in the contract. Accordingly, control of the products transfers to the customer in accordance with the transaction's shipping terms. Taxes imposed by governmental authorities, such as sales taxes or value-added taxes, are excluded from net sales.<br>

The Company provides for sales returns allowance relating to specified yield or quality commitments as a reduction of revenue, based on past experience and specific identification of relevant events, which has been in immaterial amounts.<br>

The Company provides its customers with other services that are less significant in scope and amount and for which recognition occurs over time when customers receive the services.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**O.** **Research and Development** 

Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. Amounts received or receivable from the government of Israel and others, such as participation in research and development programs, are offset from research and development costs. The accrual for grants receivable is determined based on the terms of the programs, provided that the criteria for entitlement have been met. As of December 31, 2025, the grants receivable amount was immaterial.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**P.** **Income Taxes** 

The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach as prescribed in ASC 740-10 *"Income Taxes".* This topic prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred taxes are measured using the enacted tax rates under applicable law expected to be in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse as of the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities, as well as any related valuation allowance, are presented as noncurrent items on the balance sheets.<br>

The Company evaluates the potential realization of its deferred tax assets for each jurisdiction in which the Company operates at each reporting date and establishes valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a part of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income of the same character and in the same jurisdiction. The Company considers all available positive and negative evidence in making this assessment, including, but not limited to, the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets and projected future taxable income.<br>

A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized based on all available evidence.<br>

ASC 740-10 prescribes a two-step approach for recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by assessing whether they are more-likely-than-not sustainable, based solely on their technical merits including resolution of any related appeals or litigation process. The second step is to measure the associated tax benefit of each position as the largest amount that the Company believes is more-likely-than-not realizable. Differences between the amount of tax benefits taken or expected to be taken in its income tax returns and the amount of tax benefits recognized in its financial statements, represent the Company's unrecognized income tax benefits. The Company's policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**Q.** **Earnings per Ordinary Share** 

Basic earnings per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" by dividing net profit or loss attributable to ordinary equity holders of Tower (the numerator) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the reported period (the denominator). Diluted earnings per share is calculated, if applicable, by adjusting the net profit attributable to ordinary equity holders of Tower, and the weighted average number of ordinary shares, taking into effect all potential dilutive ordinary shares.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**R.** **Comprehensive Income** 

In accordance with ASC 220 "*Comprehensive Income*", comprehensive income represents the change in shareholders' equity during a reporting period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a reporting period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income ("OCI") represents gains and losses that are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net profit.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**S.** **Functional Currency and Exchange Rate Results** 

The currency of the primary economic environment in which Tower, TSSA, TSNB and TSIT conduct their operations is the U.S. Dollar ("dollar"). Thus, the dollar is their functional and reporting currency. Accordingly, monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the dollar are re-measured into dollars in accordance with ASC 830-10 "Foreign Currency Matters". All transaction gains and losses from the re-measurement of monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the statements of operations as financial income or expenses, as appropriate. The financial statements of TPSCo, whose functional currency is the Japanese Yen ("JPY"), have been translated into dollars. The assets and liabilities have been translated using the exchange rate in effect as of the balance sheet date. The statements of operations of TPSCo have been translated using the average exchange rate for the reported period. The resulting translation adjustments are charged or credited to OCI.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**T.** **Stock-based Compensation** 

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 718 "*Compensation - Stock Compensation*", under which employees' share-based equity awards (mostly restricted stock units and performance unit shares) are recognized based on the grant-date fair values.

The compensation costs are recognized using the graded vesting attribution method based on the vesting terms of each unit included in the award resulting in an accelerated recognition of compensation costs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**U.** **Fair Value Measurements of Financial Instruments** 

ASC 820, "*Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures*" ("*ASC 820*"), requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.<br>

ASC 820 prioritizes the considerations that may be used to measure fair value to the following three levels:

 ***Level 1***

<br> Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

***Level 2***<br>

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.<br>

 ***Level 3***

<br> Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying value of the Company's bank deposits, accounts receivable, payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their current fair values in accordance with their nature and respective maturity dates or durations. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a non-recurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared such as marketable securities and investments in privately-held companies.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**V.** **Derivatives and Hedging** 

In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivative and Hedging ("ASC 815"), the Company recognizes all its derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities and carries them at fair value.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the derivative's gain or loss is initially reported as a component of OCI and is subsequently recorded into earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings, in the same line item as the underlying hedged item on the consolidated statements of earnings.<br>

Cash flow hedges related to anticipated transactions are designated and documented at the inception of each hedge. Cash flows from hedging transactions are presented in the same categories as the cash flows from the respective hedged items.

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments' significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU No. 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this ASU did not have any impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flow reports. See Note 14E with regards to applicable disclosure.<br>

On December 23, 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09 - Income taxes (topic 740): improvements to income tax disclosures. This ASU requires disclosure of specific categories in rate reconciliation and additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The amendment also includes other changes to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures, including further disaggregation of income taxes paid for individually significant jurisdictions. The amendment is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of the amendment did not have an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. See Note 17 with regards to applicable disclosure.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**X.** **Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted** 

 **In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses on an interim and annual basis in the notes to the financial statements. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.<br>In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets ("ASU 2025-05"), which provides a practical expedient to measure credit losses on current accounts receivable and current contract assets under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The practical expedient assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The ASU 2025-05 is effective for annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2025 and interim reporting within those annual reporting periods. The new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.<br>In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-09, Hedge Accounting Improvements (Topic 815), which amends certain aspects of the hedge accounting guidance in ASC 815, to more closely align hedge accounting with the economics of an entity's risk management activities. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting within those annual reporting periods. The ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.<br>In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities, which adds guidance to ASC 832 on the recognition, measurement, and presentation of government grants. The ASU requires entities to recognize government grant income when all eligibility criteria have been met and the related costs have been incurred, clarifying the timing and presentation of such grants within the financial statements. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2028 and interim reporting within those annual reporting periods. The company is still evaluating the potential impact of the new standard on its financial statements.**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Exchange Rate Transactions** 

As the functional currency of the Company is the USD and a portion of Tower's expenses are denominated in NIS, the Company enters into exchange rate agreements from time to time to partially hedge the volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on NIS-denominated expenses. The exchange rate transaction-related derivatives were accounted for as hedge accounting, resulting in gain or loss initially reported as a component of OCI and subsequently, upon maturity, recorded in the statement of operations, when the hedged item's exposure affects earnings. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair values of these exchange rate translation-related derivatives, net were $13,540 and $768, respectively, in an asset position, presented in other current assets. The face values of such agreements as of such dates were $156,000 and $156,000, respectively.<br>As the functional currency of the Company is the USD and TPSCo revenue and a portion of its expenses are denominated in JPY, the Company enters into exchange rate agreements from time to time to partially hedge the volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on JPY-denominated amounts. The exchange rate transaction related derivatives were accounted for as hedge accounting resulting in gain or loss initially reported as a component of OCI and subsequently, upon maturity, recorded in the statement of operations, when the hedged item's exposure affects earnings. As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of these exchange rate translation-related derivatives, net was $6,996 in a liability position, of which $4,806 presented in other current liabilities and $2,190 presented in other long term liabilities. As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of such derivatives was $4,261 in a liability position, presented in other current liabilities. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the face value amounts of such agreements were $243,000 and $186,000, respectively.<br>As the functional currency of the Company is the USD and a portion of TSIT's expenses are denominated in EUR, the Company enters into exchange rate agreements from time to time to partially hedge the volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in foreign exchange rates on EUR-denominated expenses.

As of December 31, 2025, the fair value of these exchange rate translation-related derivatives, net was $923 in an asset position, presented in other current assets and as of December 31, 2024, the fair value of such derivatives, net was $809 in a liability position, presented in other current liabilities. The face value amounts of such exchange rate agreements as of such dates were $48,000 and $39,600, respectively.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Concentration of Credit Risks** 

 **Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, bank deposits, derivatives, trade receivables and government and other receivables. The Company's cash, deposits and derivatives are maintained with large and reputable banks and investment banks. The composition and maturities of investments are regularly monitored by the Company. Generally, these securities may be redeemed upon demand and bear minimal risk.<br>The Company generally does not require collateral for insurance of receivables; however, in certain circumstances, the Company obtains credit insurance or may require advance payments. An allowance for current expected credit losses is maintained with respect to trade accounts receivable which as of December 31, 2025 was an insignificant amount. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers.<br>** 

<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**C.** **Fair Value of Financial Instruments** 

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments do not materially differ from their respective carrying amounts as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**D.** **Fair Value Measurements** 

 ***Valuation Techniques***

<br> In general, and where applicable, the Company uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities to determine fair value. This pricing methodology applies to the Company's Level 1 assets and liabilities. If quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities are not available to determine fair value, the Company uses quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities or inputs other than the quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. This pricing methodology applies to the Company's Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities.<br>

 ***Level 1 Measurements***

<br> Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value on a recurring basis. These securities are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy where quoted market prices from reputable third-party brokers are available in an active market. Changes in fair value of securities available-for-sale are recorded in other comprehensive income. During 2024, the Company sold its entire marketable securities portfolio and had no outstanding marketable securities as of December 31, 2024.<br>

<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; If quoted market prices are not available, or the prices of securities are derived from various sources, and do not necessarily represent the prices at which these securities could have been bought or sold, the Company obtains fair value measurements of these securities or of similar assets and liabilities from an independent pricing service. These securities are reported using Level 2 inputs and the fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, U.S. government and agency yield curves, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the security's terms and conditions, among other factors.<br>For cross-currency swap and derivatives measured under Level 2, the Company uses the market approach using quotations from banks and other public information.<br>

 ***Level 3 Measurements***

<br> Investments in equity securities of privately-held companies without readily determinable fair values are measured using the Measurement Alternatives (see Note 2L). The Company reviews these investments for impairment and observable price changes on a quarterly basis and adjusts the carrying value accordingly. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a decrease of $2,354 in the value of such investments, presented in other income (expense), net in the statements of operations, and for the year ended December 31 2024, the Company did not record significant changes to the carrying value of such investments.<br>Recurring fair value measurements using the indicated inputs:<br>

Short-term deposits amounted to $916,541 and $946,351, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.<br>

NOTE 11: EMPLOYEE RELATED LIABILITIES

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Employee Termination Benefits** 

Israeli law, labor agreements and corporate policy determine the obligations of Tower to make severance payments to dismissed Israeli employees and to Israeli employees leaving employment under certain circumstances. Generally, the liability for severance pay benefits, as determined by Israeli law, is based upon length of service and the employee's monthly salary. This liability is primarily covered by regular deposits made each month by Tower into recognized severance and pension funds and by insurance policies maintained by Tower, based on the employee's salary for the relevant month.<br>Tower implements a labor agreement with regard to most of its Israeli employees, according to which monthly deposits into recognized severance and pension funds or insurance policies release it from any additional severance obligation in excess of the balance in such accounts to such Israeli employees and, therefore, Tower incurs no liability or asset with respect to such severance obligations and deposits. Payments relating to Israeli employee termination benefits were $7,098, $5,716 and $5,752 for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.<br>TPSCo established a Defined Contribution Retirement Plan (the "DC Plan") for its employees through which TPSCo contributes approximately 8% of employee base salary to the DC Plan. Such contribution releases the employer from further obligation to any payments upon termination of employment. The contribution is remitted either to third party benefit funds based on employee preference, or directly, to those employees who elected not to enroll in the DC Plan. Total payments under the DC Plan in 2025, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $3,660, $3,853 and $4,266 respectively.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **TSNB Employee Benefit Plans** 

 **TSNB Pension Plan**

<br> TSNB has a pension plan that provides monthly pension payments to eligible employees upon retirement. The pension benefits are based on years of service and specified benefit amounts. TSNB uses a December 31 measurement date each year. TSNB's funding policy is to make contributions that satisfy at least the minimum required contribution for IRS qualified plans.<br>Funded status surplus under the plan was $1,810 and $1,870 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, comprising of plan assets with a fair value of $19,203 and $18,904 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 respectively, net of benefit obligation of $17,393 and $17,034, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The funded status surplus is included in non-current assets.<br>Net expense recognized on the plan were $183, $87 and $183 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, comprised primarily of expected return on plan assets of $1,099, $1,075 and $1,034 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, offset by interest costs of $918, $868 and $891, for the years ending December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. No service costs were incurred during the years included in these financial statements as the plan did not include active employees during those years.<br>Unrecognized losses under the plan as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $3,599 and $3,681, respectively. Amortization of unrecognized losses included in net expense recognized on the plan was approximately $100 per year. Unrecognized losses are substantially in their entirety comprised of historically deferred net actuarial gains and losses.<br>Weighted average assumptions used in determining the funded status surplus were as follows:<br>

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| Details | 2025 | 2024 | 2023 |
| Discount rate | 5.30% | 5.60% | 4.90% |
| Expected return on plan assets | 6.10% | 5.60% | 5.60% |
| Rate of compensation increases | N/A | N/A | N/A |

---

The estimated expected return on assets of the plan is based on assumptions derived from, among other things, the historical return on assets of the plan, the current and expected investment allocation of assets held by the plan and the current and expected future rates of return in the debt and equity markets for investments held by the plan. The obligations under the plan could differ from the obligation currently recorded, if management's estimates are not consistent with actual investment performance.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; **TSNB Employee Benefit Plans (continued)**

Benefits paid under the plan during the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024 were appropriately $1,000 per year. The following benefit payments are expected to be paid in each of the next five fiscal years and in the aggregate for the five fiscal years thereafter:<br>

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Fiscal Year | Other<br> Benefits |
| 2026 | $1262 |

| 2029 | 1389 |
| 2030 | 1395 |
| 2031 - 2035 | $6717 |

---

For each of the years included in these financial statements, the plan's assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted solely of investments in commingled funds, valued as a level 2 fair value measurement. The weighted average asset allocations for periods included were approximately 10% in equity securities and 90% in debt securities.<br>TSNB's primary policy goals regarding the plan's assets are to (1) provide liquidity to meet the Plan benefit payments and expenses payable from the Plan, (2) offer reasonable probability of achieving growth of assets that will assist in closing the Plan's funding gap, and (3) manage the Plan's assets in a liability framework. Plan assets are currently invested in commingled funds with various debt and equity investment objectives. The target asset allocation for the plan assets is 90% debt, or fixed income securities, and 10% equity securities. Individual funds are evaluated periodically based on comparisons to benchmark indices and peer group funds, and investment decisions are made by TSNB in accordance with the policy goals. Actual allocation to each asset category fluctuates and may not be within the target allocation specified above due to changes in market conditions.<br>

Post-Retirement Medical Plan

Additionally, TSNB has a medical plan that provides post-retirement health and life benefits to eligible employees upon retirement. Benefit obligation under the plan was $1,228 and $1,235 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The benefit obligation is mostly included in non-current liabilities. Unrecognized losses under the plan as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, comprised in their entirety of historically deferred net actuarial gains and losses, were $829 and $1,018, respectively. Net expense recognized on the plan and amortization of unrecognized losses included in net expense recognized on the plan were immaterial in each of the years included in these financial statements.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**A.** **Tower Statutory Income Rates and Pillar 2 Model (continued)** 

In December 2021, the OECD issued the Pillar Two model rules, which introduce a 15% global minimum tax applicable on a jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis to multinational corporations with consolidated annual revenue exceeding €750 million. As of December 31, 2025, the rules had been partially enacted in certain jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Pillar Two model rules include transitional safe harbor provisions which if met allow such corporations to defer the application of the rules for periods that will commence after December 31, 2025. Until December 31, 2025 (inclusive), the Company qualified for the transitional safe harbor provisions in all jurisdictions in which it operates. As such, the Pillar Two model rules did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements through December 31, 2025, however, the Company believes it would result in significant additional income taxes for the years 2026 and beyond, mainly with respect to its Israeli operations.<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**B.** **Income Tax Expense, Net** 

The Company's provision for income tax is affected by income tax in a multinational tax environment. The income tax provision is an estimate determined based on current enacted tax laws and tax rates at each of its geographic locations, with the use of acceptable allocation methodologies based upon the Company's organizational structure, operations and business mode of work, resulting in applicable taxable income attributable to each of the locations the Company operates in.<br>The Company's income tax provision consists of the following for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:<br>

#### Revenues
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $1,566.1 million, as compared to $1,436.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting a $130.0 million or 9% year over year revenue increase. The increase is mostly due to higher wafers shipments, including revenue and shipments from the 300mm facility in Agrate, Italy, which commenced volume production and operations in the fourth quarter of 2024, and therefore its revenue was included in our statement of operations for the entire 2025 calendar year, as compared to only a limited portion of 2024.

#### Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $1,202.3 million as compared to $1,096.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $105.6 million increase in cost of revenue is mainly due to higher depreciation and other manufacturing costs associated with the increased number of wafers shipped in the year ended December 31, 2025, including higher depreciation and other manufacturing costs associated with the 300mm facility in Agrate, Italy, which commenced volume production and operations in the fourth quarter of 2024, and therefore its cost was included in our statement of operations for the entire 2025 calendar year, as compared to only a limited portion of 2024.

#### Gross Profit
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $363.9 million as compared to $339.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $24.5 million increase in gross profit resulted from the $130.0 million or 9.6% increase in revenue, net of the $105.6 million increase in cost of revenue, as described above.

#### Research and Development
Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, amounted to $86.5 million, reflecting 5.5% of revenue, as compared to $79.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, also reflecting 5.5% of revenue.

The $2.9 million increase in operating profit resulted mainly from the $24.5 million increase in gross profit, as described above, offset by $7.1 million increase in research and development expenses, the $8.2 million increase in marketing, general and administrative expenses in the year ended December 31, 2025 and the $6.3 million restructuring income in 2024, as described above.

#### Financing Income, net

The $21.6 million tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 reflects 9% of the income before tax, mostly due to the 7.5% preferred income tax rate applied on the Israeli operations eligible income, with other jurisdictions subject to higher tax rate, see also note 17 to the financial statements.

Net profit for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $218.8 million as compared to $207.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $11.6 million increase in net profit is mainly due to the increase in operating profit and financing income, net, and the decrease in other expense, net, as described above, offset by the increase in income tax expense, net, described above.

#### Net Loss Attributable to Non-Controlling Interest
Net loss attributable to non-controlling interest for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $1.7 million as compared to net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.

#### Net Profit Attributable to the Company
Net profit attributable to the Company for the year ended December 31, 2025 amounted to $220.5 million as compared to $207.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The $12.6 million increase in net profit attributable to the Company is mainly due to the increase in net profit of $11.6 million as described above, and the increase in net loss attributable to non-controlling interest of $1.1 million, as described above.

#### Impact of Currency Fluctuations
The Company currently operates in four different regions: the United States, Japan, Israel and Italy. The functional currency of the Company's entities in the United States, Israel and Italy is the US dollar ("USD"). The functional currency of the Company's operations in Japan is the Japanese Yen ("JPY"). The Company's expenses and costs are denominated mainly in USD, JPY, New Israeli Shekels ("NIS") and Euro, revenue is denominated mainly in USD and JPY, and the cash from operations, investing and financing activities are denominated mainly in USD, JPY and NIS. Therefore, the Company is exposed to the risk of currency exchange rate fluctuations in Japan, Israel and Italy.

The majority of TPSCo's revenue is denominated in JPY and the majority of TPSCo's expenses and costs are denominated in JPY, which limits the exposure to fluctuations of the USD-to-JPY exchange rate on TPSCo's results of operations. In order to mitigate a portion of the net exposure to the USD-to-JPY exchange rate, the Company has engaged in cylinder hedging transactions to contain the currency's fluctuation within a pre-defined fixed range.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the USD appreciated against the JPY by 0.01%, as compared to 10.7% appreciation during the year ended December 31, 2024. The net effect of USD appreciation against the JPY on TPSCo's assets and liabilities denominated in JPY is presented in the Cumulative Translation Adjustment as part of Other Comprehensive Income on the balance sheet.

The USD cost of the Company's operations in Israel is influenced by changes in the USD-to-NIS exchange rate, with respect to expenses and costs that are denominated in NIS. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the USD depreciated against the NIS by 12.5%, as compared to 0.6% appreciation during the year ended December 31, 2024.

The fluctuation of the USD against the NIS may affect the Company's results of operations as it relates to the entity in Israel. Appreciation of the NIS may increase cost, in USD terms, of the Israeli facility such as utilities, taxes and labor costs that are denominated in NIS, which may lead to erosion of profit margins. The Company uses foreign currency cylinder and forward transactions to hedge a portion of this currency exposure to be contained within a pre-defined fixed range.

The USD cost of the Company's operations in Italy is influenced by changes in the USD-to-Euro exchange rate, with respect to expenses and costs that are denominated in Euro, however the amount of cost denominated in Euro is immaterial, and therefore the Company exposure to Euro fluctuations is limited. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the USD appreciated against the Euro by 12.8%, as compared to 5.9% depreciation during the year ended December 31, 2024.

#### Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had an aggregate amount of $235.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to $271.9 million as of December 31, 2024. The main cash items during the year ended December 31, 2025 were as follows: $395.5 million net cash provided by operating activities; $444.4 million invested in property and equipment, net; $38.5 million received from sales of short-term deposits, net; and $33.4 million net cash used in financing activities.

Short-term and long-term debt presented in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 amounted to $28.1 million and $133.4 million, respectively, and included loans, operating leases and capital leases.
