Impact of COVID-19
The ongoing novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and the mitigation efforts by governments to attempt to control its spread are impacting and will likely
continue to impact our operations, customers, and suppliers for an indefinite period of time. While we have implemented safeguards and procedures to counter the
impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic has and will directly or indirectly impact us, including our business, financial
condition, and results of operations, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be accurately predicted, including the further
mitigation efforts taken to contain it or treat its impact and the economic impact on local, regional, national and international markets. We will continue to actively
monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local, or foreign authorities or that we
determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers, and stockholders.
For additional information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and other associated risks and
uncertainties see Part II, Item 7 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors in
this Annual Report.
Recent Developments
On July 13, 2020, the Company announced that it had entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated July 12, 2020 (as it may be amended from time to
time, the “ADI Merger Agreement”) with Analog Devices, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“Analog Devices” or "ADI"), and Magneto Corp., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Analog Devices (“Acquisition Sub”), under which, subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permissible) waiver of the conditions set forth therein,
Acquisition Sub will merge with and into the Company, and the Company will survive the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Analog Devices (the “ADI
Merger”). Under the terms of the ADI Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the ADI Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”), issued and outstanding
4
immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than treasury shares and any shares of Company Common Stock held by Analog Devices or Acquisition Sub) will
be converted into the right to receive 0.6300 of a fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.16 2/3 per share, of Analog Devices (with cash
being paid (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes) in lieu of any fraction of a share of Analog Devices common stock). Analog Devices
shareholders will continue to own their existing Analog Devices shares, and the combined company will be named Analog Devices.
The ADI Merger has been approved by both the Company’s Board of Directors and the Board of Directors of Analog Devices. The completion of the ADI Merger
is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, the required approvals of Maxim Integrated’s stockholders, the approval of ADI’s shareholders
and the receipt of various regulatory approvals. Subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permissible) waiver of such conditions, the transaction is expected to
close in the summer of 2021. For additional information on the ADI Merger Agreement and the ADI Merger, please refer to the Company’s Current Report on
Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 13, 2020. The Company cannot guarantee that the ADI Merger will be completed on a
timely basis or at all or that, if completed, it will be completed on the terms set forth in the ADI Merger Agreement.
For additional information regarding the ADI Merger, including associated risks and uncertainties, see Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors, Part II, Item 7 -
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 20 “Subsequent Events” in in the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements in Part IV, Item 15(a) this Annual Report.
The Linear and Mixed-Signal Analog Integrated Circuit Market
All electronic signals generally fall into one of two categories, linear or digital. Linear or analog signals represent real world phenomena, such as temperature,
pressure, sound or speed, and are continuously variable over a wide range of values. Digital signals represent the “ones” and “zeros” of binary arithmetic and are
either on or off.
Three general classes of semiconductor products arise from this distinction between linear and digital signals:
•
•
•
digital devices, such as memories and microprocessors that operate primarily in the digital domain;
linear devices, such as amplifiers, references, analog multiplexers, and switches that operate primarily in the analog domain; and
mixed-signal devices such as data converter devices that combine linear and digital functions on the same integrated circuit and interface
between the analog and digital domains.
Our strategy has been to target both the linear and mixed-signal markets, often collectively referred to as the analog market. However, some of our products are
exclusively or principally digital. While our focus continues to be on the linear and mixed-signal market, our capabilities in the digital domain enable development
of new mixed-signal and other products with highly sophisticated digital characteristics.
At the beginning of fiscal year 2020, we combined our Computing Major End-Market category with our Communications and Data Center Major End-Market
category. Our former Computing Major End-Market category focused on Desktop Computers, Notebook Computers, and Peripherals and Other Computer markets.
5
Our linear and mixed-signal products now serve four major end-markets: (i) Automotive, (ii) Communications & Data Center, (iii) Consumer and (iv) Industrial.
These major end-markets and their corresponding markets are noted in the table below:

Product Quality
We employ a system addressing quality and reliability of our products from initial design through wafer fabrication, assembly, testing and final shipment. We have
received ISO 9001, IATF16949 and ISO 14001 certifications for all wafer fabrication, assembly, final test and shipping facilities. Based on industry standard
requirements, we conduct reliability stress testing on the products we manufacture and sell. Through this testing, we can detect and accelerate the presence of
defects that may arise over the life of a product.
Manufacturing
We primarily utilize third party foundries as well as our own wafer fabrication facility for the production of our wafers. The broad range of products demanded by
the analog integrated circuit market requires multiple manufacturing process technologies. As a
6
result, many different process technologies are currently used for wafer fabrication of our products. The majority of processed wafers are also subject to parametric
and functional testing at either our facilities or third-party vendors.
In fiscal year 2007, we entered into a supply agreement with Seiko Epson Corporation (“Epson”). In fiscal year 2010, we entered into a supply agreement with
Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp. (“Powerchip”) to provide 300mm wafer capacity. In fiscal year 2014, we entered into a supply agreement with
UMC Corporation (“UMC”). In fiscal year 2016, we entered into a supply agreement with TowerJazz Texas, Inc. (formerly known as TJ Texas, Inc.)
("TowerJazz"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tower Semiconductor Ltd. In fiscal year 2018, we ramped production at our most recently added partner
foundry, Mie Fujitsu Semiconductor Limited (“MIFS”). MIFS was a joint venture between Fujitsu Semiconductor Ltd. and UMC that was wholly acquired by
UMC and renamed United Semiconductor Japan Co., Ltd. (“USJC”) in 2019. Epson and USJC in Japan and UMC and Powerchip in Taiwan manufacture products
for us under rights and licenses using our proprietary technology. In fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, wafers manufactured by our partner foundries and merchant
foundries (e.g., Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited) represented 70%, 65% and 73% respectively, of our total wafer manufacturing.
Once wafer manufacturing has been completed, wafers are sorted in order to determine which integrated circuits on each wafer are functional and which are
defective. We currently perform the majority of wafer sorting, final testing and shipping activities at two company-owned facilities, located in Cavite, the
Philippines and Chonburi Province, Thailand, although we also utilize independent subcontractors for some wafer sorting.
We process wafers for products that utilize chip scale packaging (“CSP”), also known as wafer level packaging (“WLP”). CSP, or WLP, enables integrated circuits
to be attached directly to a printed circuit board without the use of a traditional plastic package. Currently, all WLP processes are done externally.
Integrated circuit assembly is performed by foreign assembly subcontractors, located in China, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, and
South Korea, where wafers are separated into individual integrated circuits and assembled into a variety of packages.
After assembly has been completed, a majority of the assembled products are shipped to our facilities located in Cavite, the Philippines or Chonburi Province,
Thailand, where the packaged integrated circuits undergo final testing and preparation for customer shipment. In addition, we also utilize independent
subcontractors to perform final testing.
The majority of our finished products ship directly from either Cavite, the Philippines or Chonburi Province, Thailand to customers worldwide or to other
Company locations for sale to end-customers or distributors.
Customers, Sales and Marketing
We market our products worldwide through a direct-sales and applications organization and through our own and other unaffiliated distribution channels to a broad
range of customers in diverse industries. Our products typically require a sophisticated technical sales and marketing effort. Our sales organization is divided into
domestic and international regions. Distributors and direct customers generally buy on an individual purchase order basis, rather than pursuant to long-term
agreements.
Certain distributors have agreements with us which allow for certain sales price rebates or price adjustments on certain inventory if we change the price of those
products. Certain distributor agreements also permit distributors to exchange a portion of certain purchases on a periodic basis. As is customary in the
semiconductor industry, our distributors may also market other products that compete with our products.
We derived approximately 52% of our fiscal year 2020 revenue from sales made through distributors which includes distribution sales to Samsung and catalog
distributors. Our primary distributor is Avnet Electronics ("Avnet") which accounted for 22%, 22% and 25% of our revenues in fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018,
respectively. Avnet, like our other distributors, is not an end customer, but rather serves as a channel of sale to many end users of our products. Sales to Samsung,
our largest single end customer (through direct sales and distributors), accounted for approximately 10% of net revenues in fiscal years 2019 and 2018. No single
customer (other than Avnet and Samsung) nor single product accounted for 10% or more of net revenues in fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018. Based on customers’
ship-to locations, international sales accounted for approximately 89%, 89% and 88% of our net revenues in fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See
Note 12: “Segment Information” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part IV, Item 15(a) of this Annual Report.
7
Seasonality
Our revenue is generally influenced on a quarterly basis by customer demand patterns and new product introductions. A large number of our products have been
incorporated into consumer electronic products, which are subject to seasonality and fluctuations in demand.
Foreign Operations
We conduct business in numerous countries outside of the United States (“U.S.”). Our international business is subject to numerous risks, including fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates and controls, import and export controls, and other laws, policies, and regulations of foreign governments. Refer to our discussion
of risks related to our foreign operations as included in Item 1A, Risk Factors and our discussion of foreign income included in Item 7 under “Results of
Operations” included in this Annual Report. Refer to net revenues from unaffiliated customers by geographic region included in Note 12: “Segment Information”
in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Part IV, Item 15(a) of this Annual Report.
Backlog
On June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, our current quarter backlog was approximately $496.4 million and $391.3 million, respectively. Our current quarter backlog
includes customer request dates to be filled within the next three months. As is customary in the semiconductor industry, these orders may be canceled in most
cases without penalty to customers. Accordingly, we believe that our backlog is not a reliable measure for predicting future revenues. All backlog amounts have
been adjusted for estimated future distribution ship and debit pricing adjustments.
Research and Development
We believe that research and development is critical to our future competitiveness. Objectives for the research and development function include:
•
•
•
•
•
new product definition and development of differentiated products;
design of products with performance differentiation that achieve high manufacturing yield and reliability;
development of, and access to, manufacturing processes and advanced packaging;
development of hardware, software, and algorithms to support the acceptance and design-in of our products in the end customer's system; and
development of high-integration products across multiple end markets.
Our research and development plans require engineering talent and tools for product definition, electronic design automation (“EDA”), circuit design, process
technologies, test development, test technology, packaging development, software development and applications support. Research and development expenses
were $440.2 million, $435.2 million and $450.9 million in fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. See “Research and Development” under Item 7,
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for more information.
Competition
The linear and mixed-signal analog integrated circuit industry is intensely competitive, and virtually all major semiconductor companies presently compete with, or
conceivably could compete with, some portion of our business.
We believe the principal elements of competition include:
technical innovation;
service and support;
time to market;
business, operational, marketing, and financial strategy;
differentiated product performance and features;
quality and reliability;
product pricing and delivery capabilities;
customized design and applications;
business relationship with customers;
experience, skill and productivity of employees and management; and
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
• manufacturing competence and inventory management.
8
Our principal competitors include, but are not limited to, Analog Devices, Inc., Cirrus Logic, Inc., Monolithic Power Systems, Inc., NXP Semiconductors N.V.,
Semtech Corporation, Silicon Laboratories, and Texas Instruments Inc. We expect increased competition in the future from other emerging and established
companies as well as through consolidation of our competitors within the semiconductor industry.
Patents, Licenses and Other Intellectual Property Rights
We rely upon both know-how and patents to develop and maintain our competitive position.
It is our policy to seek patent protection for significant inventions that may be patented, though we may elect, in certain cases, not to seek patent protection even
for significant inventions if other protection, such as maintaining the invention as a trade secret, is considered by us to be more advantageous. We hold a number of
patents worldwide with expiration dates ranging from calendar year 2020 to 2039. We have also registered several of our trademarks and copyrights in the United
States and other countries.
Employees
As of June 27, 2020, we employed 7,115 persons.
Environmental Regulations
Our compliance with foreign, federal, state, and local laws and regulations that have been enacted to regulate the environment has not had a material adverse effect
on our capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive or financial position.
Executive Officers
For information regarding our current executive officers, see Part III, Item 10 of this Annual Report.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following risk factors and other information included in this Annual Report should be carefully considered. The risks and uncertainties described below are
not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we presently deem less significant may also adversely affect our
business.
The announcement and pending agreement to merge with Analog Devices may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and
stock price.
Uncertainty relating to the pending ADI Merger could have an adverse effect on our employees, customers, partners, and other third parties that may materially
disrupt key business activities and may adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations, and stock price. Moreover, we are subject to various
additional risks in connection with the announcement and pendency of the ADI Merger, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
the fact that the conditions to the closing of the ADI Merger may not be satisfied or waived, including that the required approval of Maxim stockholders
or ADI shareholders may not be obtained;
uncertainty relating to the pending Merger may cause current and prospective customers to consider alternatives, and potentially change suppliers;
potential adverse effects on our ability to attract, recruit, retain, and motivate current and prospective employees who may be uncertain about their future
roles following the ADI Merger;
the significant diversion of internal resources and key employees’ and management’s attention due to the pending ADI Merger;
legal proceedings that may arise challenging the ADI Merger and the related transactions contemplated by the ADI Merger Agreement may require us to
incur significant legal fees and expenses, and may result in unfavorable outcomes that could delay or prevent the completion of the Merger;
the restrictions imposed on our business and operations under the ADI Merger Agreement may prevent us from pursuing opportunities without Analog
Devices’ approval or taking other actions that we might have undertaken in the absence of the proposed ADI Merger, such as dividend payments, stock
repurchases, and restructurings, which may interfere with our ability to effectively respond to competitive pressures, execute business strategies, and meet
financial goals;
the ADI Merger Agreement contains customary provisions that restrict our ability to pursue alternative transaction to the ADI Merger and that may
discourage potential competing acquirers from considering or proposing an alternative transaction that may provide a higher value to our stockholders;
and
the required regulatory approvals from governmental entities (U.S. and non-U.S.) may delay the completion of the ADI Merger or result in the imposition
of conditions that would allow Analog Devices to terminate the ADI Merger Agreement in certain circumstances and be obligated to pay us the
termination fee specified in the ADI Merger Agreement.
Any failure of the pending ADI Merger to be completed may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and stock price.
Each of our and Analog Devices’ obligations to complete the ADI Merger is subject to a number of conditions specified in the ADI Merger Agreement, including,
among others: (i) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock; (ii) the approval by
Analog Devices shareholders of the issuance of ADI common stock to Maxim Integrated stockholders in the ADI Merger; (iii) the absence of certain laws, orders,
judgments, and injunctions that restrain, enjoin, or otherwise prohibit the completion of the Merger; (iv) expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and receipt of specified non-U.S. regulatory approvals; and (v) subject to certain
materiality standards, the accuracy of representations and warranties with respect to the Company and Analog Devices and compliance in all material respects by
the Company and Analog Devices with their respective covenants contained in the ADI Merger Agreement. There can be no assurance that these conditions to the
completion of the Merger will be satisfied within the timeframe specified in the Merger Agreement or at all.
Regulatory and governmental authorities may impose conditions on the granting of the required regulatory approvals, including divestitures of certain assets or
businesses, which may result in extended negotiations among these entities, Analog Devices and us, which may delay the completion of the ADI Merger and
increase the risk that the ADI Merger may not be completed.
If the ADI Merger is not completed, our stock price could decline to the extent that our current share price reflects an assumption that the ADI Merger will be
completed. Furthermore, if the ADI Merger is not completed, we may suffer other consequences that could adversely affect our business, financial condition,
results of operations, and stock price, including the following:
10
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
we have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant costs and expenses, including fees for professional services and other transaction costs in
connection with the ADI Merger, and many of these fees and costs are payable by us regardless of whether the ADI Merger is completed;
we could be required to pay a termination fee of up to $725 million to Analog Devices under circumstances as described in the ADI Merger Agreement,
including a circumstance in which our Board of Directors changes its recommendation concerning the approval of the ADI Merger or if the Company
were to receive an alternative proposal;
the failure to complete the ADI Merger may result in adverse publicity, negatively impact the reputation of the Company in the capital markets and
investment community, and result in critical responses from our customers, partners, and other third parties;
legal proceedings may be instituted against us, our directors and others relating to the ADI Merger and related transactions;
any disruptions to our business resulting from the announcement and pendency of the ADI Merger, including any adverse changes to our relationships
with customers, vendors, and employees, may continue or intensify in the event the ADI Merger is not completed;
we may experience employee departures; and
we may not be able to take advantage of alternative business opportunities or effectively respond to competitive pressures.
The ongoing novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and the mitigation efforts by governments to attempt to control its spread have negatively impacted
and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, governmental authorities have implemented and are continuing to implement numerous and constantly evolving measures
to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, limits on gatherings, shelter-in-place orders, quarantines, and business limitations and shutdowns.
The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting mitigation efforts have impacted and will likely continue to impact our business, results of operations, and financial
condition for an indefinite period of time. While we are unable to accurately predict the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the mitigation efforts by
governments to attempt to control its spread will have on our results from operations and financial condition due to numerous uncertainties, including the duration
and severity of the pandemic and containment measures, our compliance with these measures has impacted our day-to-day operations and could disrupt our
business and operations, as well as that of our customers and suppliers for an indefinite period of time.
We operate our business in worldwide locations. The potential risks and effects of this pandemic and economic crisis, including potential global or regional
recessions or depressions, that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations include, but not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Adverse impact on our customers and supply channels;
Decrease in product demand and pricing as a result of this pandemic and unfavorable economic and market conditions;
Disruption in our global operations, including our internal and compliance processes;
Restrictions on our manufacturing, support operations or workforce, or similar limitations for our customers, vendors, and suppliers, could limit our
ability to meet customer demand;
Potential increased credit risk if customers, distributors, and resellers are unable to pay us, or must delay paying their obligations to us;
Restrictions or disruptions of transportation, such as reduced availability of air transport, port closures, and increased border controls or closures could
result in delays;
Impact on our workforce/employees due to the ease with which the virus spreads; and
Potential failure of our computer systems or communication systems as well as increased cyber-related risks due to our employees working from home.
Any or all of these items may occur, which individually or in the aggregate, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of
operations. These risks could accelerate or intensify depending on the severity and length of the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has in the short-term, and
may in the long-term, adversely impact the global economy, potentially leading to an economic downturn and increased unemployment. Moreover, even after the
COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience materially adverse impacts to our business due to its global economic impact.
The COVID-19 pandemic, and the various responses to it, may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks disclosed herein.
11
The sale of our products and our results of operations are dependent upon demand from the end markets of our customers, which is cyclical.
Our products are sold in the following major end-markets: (i) Automotive, (ii) Communications & Data Center, (iii) Consumer, and (iv) Industrial. The demand for
our products is subject to the strength of these four major end-markets that we serve and to some extent the overall economic climate. We often experience
decreases and increases in demand for our products primarily due to the end-market demand of our customers. Our business and results of operations may be
adversely affected if demand for our products decreases or if we are unable to meet an increase in demand without significantly increasing the lead-time for the
delivery of our products. The semiconductor market historically has been cyclical with periods of increased demand and rapid growth followed by periods of
oversupply and subsequent contraction and subject to significant and often rapid increases and decreases in product demand. As a result, changes could have
adverse effects on our results of operation.
Our operating results may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic and market conditions.
The global economic environment could subject us to increased credit risk should customers be unable to pay us, or delay paying us, for previously purchased
products. Accordingly, reserves for doubtful accounts and write-offs of accounts receivable may increase. In addition, weakness in the market for end users of our
products could harm the cash flow of certain of our distributors and resellers who could then delay paying their obligations to us or experience other financial
difficulties. This would further increase our credit risk exposure and potentially cause delays in our recognition of revenue on sales to these customers.
If economic or market conditions deteriorate globally, in the United States or in other key markets, our business, operating results, and financial condition may be
materially and adversely affected.
Incorrect forecasts, reductions, cancellations or delays in orders for our products and volatility in customer demand could adversely affect our results of
operations.
As is customary in the semiconductor industry, customer orders may be canceled in most cases without penalty to the customers. Some customers place orders that
require us to manufacture products and have them available for shipment, even though the customer may be unwilling to make a binding commitment to purchase
all, or even any, of the products. In other cases, we manufacture products based on forecasts of customer demands. As a result, we may incur inventory and
manufacturing costs in advance of anticipated sales and are subject to the risk of cancellations of orders, potentially leading to an initial inflation of backlog
followed by a sharp reduction. Because of the possibility of order cancellation, backlog should not be used as a measure of future revenues. Furthermore, canceled
or unrealized orders, especially for products meeting unique customer requirements, may also result in an inventory of unsaleable products, causing potential
inventory write-downs, some of which could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on our gross margins and results of operations.
We may experience difficulties implementing our new global execution system, which may adversely affect our ability to effectively supply products to our
customers.
We have been implementing a new global execution system (“GES”) as part of our efforts to integrate inventory movement with our financial reporting system.
This implementation is a major undertaking and requires significant employee time and financial resources. While we have invested significant resources in
planning and project management, implementation issues may arise. For example, we may experience staff turnover, which may delay the implementation of GES.
Additionally, unforeseen issues may arise, which could disrupt the implementation of GES. Any disruptions, delays or deficiencies in the design and the
implementation or operation of GES could disrupt or reduce our supply chain execution and operational efficiency which may lead to our inability to effectively
supply products to our customers and may impact the accuracy of our financial reporting. Our inability to successfully manage the implementation of GES could
materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Our global operations subject us to risks associated with changes in trade policies, including international trade disputes, and domestic or international
political, social, economic or other conditions.
We are subject to the political and legal risks inherent in international operations. Exposure to political instabilities, different business policies and varying legal or
regulatory standards, including, but not limited to, international trade disputes, could result in the imposition of tariffs, sanctions, restrictions on the U.S. import
and export controls and other trade restrictions or barriers, which could negatively impact economic activity and lead to a contraction of customer demand. For
example, in 2018, the U.S. and China began to impose partial tariffs on each other's products, and the trade tension between the two countries has escalated in 2019
through 2020. In addition, the U.S. has and may continue to focus on the business practices of specific foreign companies,
12
including large technology companies based in China, which may result in future U.S. government actions impacting our ability to do business with such
companies. The possibility of a deteriorating trade relationship may put us at a disadvantage in competition with non-U.S. companies and lead to a decreased
customer demand for our products in the long-term due to the growing economic risks and geopolitical uncertainty between the U.S. and China. International trade
disputes could also result in various forms of protectionist trade legislation and other protectionist measures that could limit the Company’s ability to operate its
business and have a negative effect on end-market demand, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Additionally, political and economic changes or volatility, political unrest, civil strife, public corruption and other economic or political uncertainties in certain
countries, such as the Philippines, could interrupt and negatively affect our business operations. We have been impacted by these problems in the past, but none
have materially affected our results of operations. Problems in the future or not-yet-materialized consequences of past problems could affect deliveries of our
products to our customers, possibly resulting in business interruptions, substantially delayed or lost sales and/or increased expenses that cannot be passed on to our
customers, any of which could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our manufacturing operations may be interrupted or suffer yield problems.
The manufacture and design of integrated circuits is highly complex. We may experience a disruption in factory operations, manufacturing problems in achieving
acceptable yields, or product delivery delays in the future as a result of, among other things, outdated infrastructure, upgrading or expanding existing facilities,
equipment malfunctioning, construction delays, changing our process technologies, capacity constraints, or new technology qualification delays, particularly in our
internal fabrication facilities. For example, our internal fabrication facility at Beaverton, Oregon requires additional investment to, among other things, upgrade its
infrastructure and manufacturing equipment. In connection with the upgrading of our facilities, we may experience a disruption in factory operations, which could
result in damages to the facilities and stoppages to the operations of the facilities. Additionally, our internal fabrication facilities may be harmed or rendered
inoperable due to damages resulting from fire, natural disaster, unavailability of electric power or other causes, which may render it difficult or impossible for us to
manufacture our products for some period of time.
If our internal fabrication facilities become unavailable to us, it would be time consuming, difficult, and costly to arrange for new manufacturing facilities to supply
our products given the nature of our products. In addition, our third parties' manufacturing facilities may not be available to us due to natural or man-made
disasters, labor unrest, political conditions, social unrest, civil strife, or other causes. To the extent we experience disruptions at our wafer fabrication facilities, or
we do not achieve acceptable manufacturing yields, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
Our operating results may be adversely affected by our inability to timely develop new products through our research and development efforts. We may be
unsuccessful in developing and selling new products necessary to maintain or expand our business.
The marketplace for our products is constantly changing and we are required to make substantial ongoing investments in our research and development. The
semiconductor industry is characterized by rapid technological change, variations in manufacturing efficiencies of new products, and significant expenditures for
capital equipment and product development. New product introductions are a critical factor for maintaining or increasing future revenue growth and sustained or
increased profitability. However, they can present significant business challenges because product development commitments and expenditures must be made well
in advance of the related revenues. The success of a new product depends on a variety of factors including accurate forecasts of long-term market demand and
future technological developments, accurate anticipation of competitors' actions and offerings, timely and efficient completion of process design and development,
timely and efficient implementation of manufacturing and assembly processes, product performance, quality and reliability of the product, and effective marketing,
revenue and service.
The loss of, or substantial reduction in sales to, any of our large customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and
results of operations.
A reduction in demand or loss of one or more of our large customers may adversely affect our business. The delay, significant reduction in, or loss of, orders from
any one or more of our large customers (including curtailments of purchases due to a change in the design, manufacturing or sourcing policies or practices of these
customers or the timing of customer inventory adjustments) or demands of price concessions from any one or more of our large customers could have a material
adverse effect on our net revenues and results of operations.
Our critical information systems are subject to cyber-attacks, data breaches, interruptions, and failures.
13
We rely on several information technology systems to provide products and services, process orders, manage inventory, process shipments to customers, keep
financial, employee, and other records, and operate other critical functions. Maintaining the security of our information technology systems is important to our
business and reputation. These information technology systems are subject to damage or interruption from a number of potential sources. Security breaches,
including cyber-attacks, phishing attacks, denial-of-service attacks, or attempts to misappropriate or compromise confidential or proprietary information or
sabotage enterprise information technology systems, are becoming increasingly frequent and more sophisticated. We currently have developed, and are in the
process of developing more systems and procedures that include, among other things, ongoing internal risk assessments to identify vulnerabilities, an internal
group dedicated to reviewing cybersecurity threats, and the adoption of an information security policy. Due to the evolving threat landscape, cyber-based attacks
will continue and we may experience them going forward, potentially with more frequency. We continue to make investments and adopt measures designed to
enhance our protection, detection, response, and recovery capabilities, and to mitigate potential risks to our intellectual property, technology, operations, customer
data and proprietary information from potential cyber-attacks. However, although we take steps to detect and investigate security incidents and implement
protections to prevent their recurrence, in some cases, we might be unable to anticipate or prevent all attacks because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized
access to or sabotage networks and systems are constantly evolving. There can be no assurance that any future system improvements will be effective in preventing
attacks or limiting the damage from any future cyber-attacks or disruptions.
Despite our efforts to mitigate risks associated with cybersecurity events, our information technology systems may still be susceptible to adaptive persistent threats,
catastrophic cybersecurity attacks, damage, disruptions, or shutdowns due to power outages, hardware failures, computer malware and viruses, telecommunication
failures, user errors, or other events. Risks associated with these threats include, but are not limited to, loss of intellectual property, impairment of our ability to
conduct our operations, disruption of our customers’ operations, loss or damage to our customer data delivery systems, and increased costs to prevent, respond to
or mitigate catastrophic cybersecurity events. A prolonged systemic disruption in the information technology systems could result in the loss of sales and
customers and significant consequential costs, which could adversely affect our business. In addition, cybersecurity breaches of our information technology
systems could result in the misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of sensitive or confidential information belonging to us or to our customers, partners,
suppliers, or employees. Our business and reputation could be harmed, and we could be subject to legal and regulatory claims which could result in significant
financial or reputational damage.
Our dependence on subcontractors for assembly, test, freight, wafer fabrication and logistic services and certain manufacturing services may cause delays
beyond our control in delivering products to our customers.
We rely on subcontractors located in various parts of the world for assembly and CSP packaging services, freight and logistic services, wafer fabrication, and
sorting and testing services. For example, in connection with the sale of our semiconductor wafer fabrication facility in San Antonio, Texas to TowerJazz Texas,
Inc. (formerly known as TJ Texas, Inc.) ("TowerJazz"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Tower Semiconductor Ltd. (“Tower”), we entered into a long-term
supply agreement with TowerJazz, pursuant to which we procure from TowerJazz certain quantities of silicon wafers upon which integrated circuits are made that
are designed by us. None of the subcontractors we currently use is affiliated with us. Reliability problems experienced by our subcontractors or the inability to
promptly replace any subcontractor could cause serious problems in delivery and quality resulting in potential product liability to us. Such problems could impair
our ability to meet our revenue plan in the fiscal year period impacted by the disruption. Failure to meet the revenue plan may materially adversely impact our
results of operations.
Any disruptions in our sort, assembly, test, freight, and logistic operations or in the operations of our subcontractors, including, but not limited to, the inability or
unwillingness of any of our subcontractors to produce or timely deliver adequate supplies of processed wafers, integrated circuit packages, or tested products
conforming to our quality standards, or other required products or services could damage our reputation, relationships, and goodwill with customers. Furthermore,
finding alternate sources of supply or initiating internal wafer processing for these products may not be economically feasible.
Our financial results may be adversely affected by increased tax rates and exposure to additional tax liabilities.
On June 18, 2019, the U.S. Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service released temporary regulations under Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 245A
(“Section 245A”), as enacted by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and IRC Section 954(c)(6) (the “Temporary Regulations”), which apply retroactively to intercompany
dividends occurring after December 31, 2017. The Temporary Regulations limit the applicability of the foreign personal holding company income (“FPHCI”) look-
through exception for certain intercompany dividends received by a controlled foreign corporation. Before application of the retroactive Temporary Regulations,
the Company benefited in fiscal years 2018 and 2019 from the FPHCI look-through exception. The Company has analyzed the relevant Temporary Regulations
and concluded that they were not validly issued. Therefore, the Company has not accounted for the effects of the retroactive Temporary Regulations in its results of
operations for fiscal year 2019 or fiscal year 2020. The
14
Company believes it has strong arguments in favor of its position and that it has met the more likely than not recognition threshold that its position will be
sustained. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position, however, due to the uncertainty involved in challenging the validity of regulations as well as a
potential litigation process, there can be no assurance that the relevant Temporary Regulations will be invalidated, modified or that a court of law will rule in favor
of the Company. An unfavorable resolution of this issue could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to taxation in various countries and jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required to determine tax liabilities on a worldwide basis. Any significant
increase in our future effective tax rates could reduce net income for future periods and may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. A number
of factors may increase our future effective tax rates, including, but not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
the jurisdictions in which profits are determined to be earned and taxed;
changes in our global structure that involve changes to investment in technology outside of the United States;
the resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities,
changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities;
adjustments to estimated taxes upon finalization of various tax returns;
increases in expenses not deductible for tax purposes, including impairments of goodwill in connection with acquisitions;
changes in available tax credits;
changes in share-based compensation;
changes in tax laws or the interpretation of such tax laws, including laws or rules enacted by countries in response to the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting
(“BEPS”) project conducted by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”); and
changes in generally accepted accounting principles.
Our independent distributors and sales representatives may underperform relative to our expectations, terminate their relationship with us or fail to make
payments on outstanding accounts receivable to us, which would adversely affect our financial results.
A portion of our sales is realized through independent electronics distributors that are not under our direct control. These independent sales organizations generally
represent product lines offered by several companies and thus could underperform for various reasons, including as a result of reducing their sales efforts applied to
our products, or terminating their distribution relationship with us. In fiscal 2020, 52% of our revenues were generated from distributors, the largest of which was
Avnet, our primary world-wide distributor, which accounted for 22% of our revenues. We require certain foreign distributors to provide a letter of credit to us in an
amount up to the credit limit set for accounts receivable from such foreign distributors. The letter of credit provides for collection on accounts receivable from the
foreign distributor should the foreign distributor default on their accounts receivable to us. Where credit limits have been established above the amount of the letter
of credit, we are exposed for the difference. We do not require letters of credit from any of our domestic distributors and are not contractually protected against
accounts receivable default or bankruptcy by these distributors. The inability to collect open accounts receivable could adversely affect our results of operations
and financial condition. Termination of a significant distributor, whether at our or the distributor's initiative, or the general underperformance of a significant
distributor could be disruptive and harmful to our current business. Additional factors that could adversely affect us include the difficulties of managing
independent sales organizations due to any matter involving fraud or dishonesty on the part of the independent distributors and sales representatives. It is often
difficult to anticipate or immediately detect such misconduct of an independent third party.
We may be liable for additional production costs and lost revenues to certain customers with whom we have entered into customer supply agreements if we are
unable to meet certain product quantity and quality requirements.
We enter into contracts with certain customers whereby we commit to supply quantities of specified parts at a predetermined scheduled delivery date. The number
of such arrangements continues to increase as this practice becomes more commonplace. Should we be unable to supply the customer with the specific part at the
quantity and product quality desired and on the scheduled delivery date, the customer may incur additional production costs. In addition, the customer may lose
revenues due to a delay in receiving the parts necessary to have the end-product ready for sale to its customers or due to product quality issues. Under certain
customer supply agreements, we may be liable for direct additional production costs or lost revenues. If products are not shipped on time or are quality deficient,
we may be liable for penalties and resulting damages. Such liability, should it arise, and/or our inability to meet these commitments to our customers may have a
material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition and could damage our relationships with the affected customers, reputation and
goodwill.
Our results of operations could be adversely affected by warranty claims and product liability.
15
We face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability suits in connection with reliability problems or other product defects that may affect our customers. Our
products are used by a variety of industries, including the automotive and medical industries. Failure of our products to perform to specifications, or other product
defects, could lead to substantial damage to both the end product in which our device has been placed and to the user of such end product. Although we take
measures to protect against product defects, if a product liability claim is brought against us, the cost of defending the claim could be significant and any adverse
determination could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
If we fail to attract and retain qualified personnel, our business may be harmed.
Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued service of our chief executive officer, our other executive officers, and key management and
technical personnel, particularly our experienced engineers and business unit managers, and on our ability to continue to attract, retain, and motivate qualified
personnel. The loss of the services of one or several of our executive officers could have a material adverse effect on our Company. In addition, we could be
materially adversely affected if the turnover rates for engineers and other key personnel increases significantly or we are unsuccessful in attracting, motivating and
retaining qualified personnel. Should we lose one or more engineers who are key to a project's completion during the course of a particular project, the completion
of such project may be delayed which could negatively affect customer relationships and goodwill and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
If we fail to enter into future vendor managed inventory arrangements or fail to supply the specific product or quantity under such arrangements, the results of
our operations and financial condition may be materially adversely impacted.
We enter into arrangements with certain original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and electronic manufacturing services (“EMS”) partners to consign
quantities of certain products within proximity of the OEMs and EMS partners' manufacturing location. The inventory is physically segregated at these locations
and we retain title and risk of loss related to this inventory until such time as the OEM or EMS partner pulls the inventory for use in its manufacturing
process. Once the inventory is pulled by the OEM or EMS partner, title and risk of loss pass to the customer, at which point we relieve inventory and recognize
revenue and the related cost of goods sold. The specific quantities to be consigned are based on a forecast provided by the OEM or EMS partner. Generally, the
arrangements with the OEMs and EMS partners provide for transfer of title and risk of loss once product has been consigned for a certain length of time.
We believe these arrangements will continue to grow in terms of number of customers and products and will increase in proportion to consolidated net
revenues. Should we be unable or unwilling to enter into such agreements as requested by OEMs or EMS partners, our results of operations may be materially
adversely impacted. In addition, should we be unable to supply the specific product in the quantity needed by the OEM or EMS partner as reflected in their
forecast, we may be liable for damages, including, but not limited to, lost revenues and increased production costs which could have a material adverse impact on
our results of operations and financial condition. Should we supply product in excess of the OEM or EMS partners' actual usage, any inventory not consumed may
become excess or obsolete, which would result in an inventory write-down that could materially adversely affect our results of operations.
We may be unable to adequately protect our proprietary rights, which may impact our ability to compete effectively.
We rely upon know-how, trade secrets, and patents to develop and maintain our competitive position. There can be no assurance that others will not develop or
patent similar technology or reverse engineer our products or that the confidentiality agreements upon which we rely will be adequate to protect our interests.
Moreover, the laws of some foreign countries generally do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the United States, and we may encounter problems in
protecting our proprietary rights in those foreign countries. Periodically, we have been asked by certain prospective customers to provide them with broad licenses
to our intellectual property rights in connection with the sale of our products to them. Such licenses, if granted, may have a negative impact on the value of our
intellectual property portfolio. Other companies have obtained patents covering a variety of semiconductor designs and processes, and we could be required to
obtain licenses under some of these patents or be precluded from making and selling products that are alleged to be infringing, if such patents are valid and other
design and manufacturing solutions are not available. There can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain licenses, if required, upon commercially
reasonable terms or at all.
16
We may suffer losses and business interruption if our products infringe the intellectual property rights of others.
In the past, it has been common in the semiconductor industry for patent holders to offer licenses on reasonable terms and rates. Although the practice of offering
licenses appears to be generally continuing, in some situations, typically where the patent directly relates to a specific product or family of products, patent holders
have refused to grant licenses. In any of those cases, there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain any necessary license on terms acceptable to us, if at
all, or that we would be able to re-engineer our products or processes in a cost-effective manner to avoid claims of infringement. Any litigation in such a situation
could involve an injunction to prevent the sales of a material portion of our products, the reduction or elimination of the value of related inventories and the
assessment of a substantial monetary award for damages related to past sales, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and
financial condition.
We may experience losses related to intellectual property indemnity claims.
We provide intellectual property indemnification for certain customers, distributors, suppliers and subcontractors for attorney fees and damages and costs awarded
against these parties in certain circumstances in which our products are alleged to infringe third party intellectual property rights, including patents, registered
trademarks and copyrights. In certain cases, there are limits on and exceptions to our potential liability for indemnification relating to intellectual property
infringement claims. We cannot estimate the amount of potential future payments, if any, that we might be required to make as a result of these agreements. To
date, we have not been required to pay significant amounts for intellectual property indemnification claims. However, there can be no assurance that we will not
have significant financial exposure under those intellectual property indemnification obligations in the future.
Shortage of raw materials or supply disruption of such raw materials could harm our business
The semiconductor industry has experienced a large expansion of fabrication capacity and production worldwide over time. As a result of increasing demand from
semiconductor, solar and other manufacturers, availability of certain basic materials and supplies, and of subcontract services, has been limited from time to time
over the past several years, and could come into short supply again if overall industry demand exceeds the supply of these materials and services in the future.
We purchase materials and supplies from many suppliers, some of which are sole-sourced. If the availability of these materials and supplies is interrupted, we may
not be able to find suitable replacements. In addition, from time to time natural disasters can lead to a shortage of some materials due to disruption of the
manufacturer's production. We continually strive to maintain availability of all required materials, supplies and subcontract services. However, we do not have
long-term agreements providing for all of these materials, supplies and services, and shortages could occur as a result of capacity limitations or production
constraints on suppliers that could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our production requirements.
Our products may fail to meet new industry standards or requirements and the efforts to meet such industry standards or requirements could be costly.
Many of our products are based on industry standards that are continually evolving. Our ability to compete in the future will depend on our ability to identify and
ensure compliance with these evolving industry standards. The emergence of new industry standards could render our products incompatible with products
developed by major systems manufacturers. As a result, we could be required to invest significant time and effort and to incur significant expense to redesign our
products to ensure compliance with relevant standards. If our products are not in compliance with prevailing industry standards or requirements, we could miss
opportunities to achieve crucial design wins which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial results.
We may pursue acquisitions and investments that could harm our operating results and may disrupt our business.
We have made and will continue to consider making strategic business investments, alliances, and acquisitions we consider necessary or desirable to gain access to
key technologies that we believe will complement our existing technical capability and support our business model objectives. Investments, alliances, and
acquisitions involve risks and uncertainties that may negatively impact our future financial performance and result in an impairment of goodwill. If integration of
our acquired businesses is not successful, we may not realize the potential benefits of an acquisition or suffer other adverse effects that we currently do not foresee.
We may also need to enter new markets in which we have no or limited experience and where competitors in such markets have stronger market positions.
17
We also invest in early-to-late stage private companies to further our strategic objectives and support key business initiatives. These strategic investments may not
perform as expected. We cannot provide assurance that these companies will operate in a manner that will increase or maintain the value of our investment. If these
private companies fail, we may not realize a return on our investments. Thus, all of our investments are subject to a risk of a partial or total loss of investment
capital.
Any of the foregoing, and other factors, could harm our ability to achieve anticipated levels of profitability from acquired businesses or to realize other anticipated
benefits of acquisitions. In addition, because acquisitions of high technology companies are inherently risky, no assurance can be given that our previous or future
acquisitions will be successful and will not adversely affect our business, operating results, or financial condition.
Our operating results may be adversely affected by increased competition and consolidation of competitors in our market.
The semiconductor industry has experienced significant consolidation in recent years. As a result, we experience intense competition from a number of companies,
some of which have significantly greater financial, manufacturing and marketing resources than us, as well as greater technical resources and proprietary
intellectual property rights than us. The principal elements of competition include product performance, functional value, quality and reliability, technical service
and support, price, diversity of product line, and sale of integrated system solutions which combine the functionality of multiple chips on one chip for a price as
part of a complete system solution and delivery capabilities. We believe we compete favorably with respect to these factors, although we may be at a disadvantage
in comparison to companies with broader product lines, greater technical service and support capabilities and larger research and development budgets. We may be
unable to compete successfully in the future against existing or new competitors and our operating results may be adversely affected by increased competition or
our inability to timely develop new products to meet the needs of our customers. In addition, our competitors may become more aggressive in their pricing
practices which may adversely impact our gross margins and market share. For example, our competitors may offer lower prices than us, or they may price
multiple products or services in a bundle to provide additional incentives that we may not be able to match. We may be unable to mitigate the negative effects of
such price competition, which may adversely affect our operating results.
Extensions in lead-time for delivery of products could adversely affect our future growth opportunities and results of operations.
Supply constraints, which may include limitations in manufacturing capacity, could impede our ability to grow revenues and meet increased customer demands for
our products. Our results of operations may be adversely affected if we fail to meet such increase in demand for our products without significantly increasing the
lead-time required for our delivery of such products. Any significant increase in the lead-time for delivery of products may negatively affect our customer
relationships, reputation as a dependable supplier of products and ability to obtain future design wins, while potentially increasing order cancellations, aged,
unsaleable or otherwise unrealized backlog, and the likelihood of our breach of supply agreement terms. Any of the foregoing factors could negatively affect our
future revenue growth and results of operations.
We are subject to a variety of domestic and international laws and regulations that could impose substantial costs on us and may adversely affect our business.
We are subject to numerous U.S. and international laws, rules and regulations covering a wide variety of subject matters, including, but not limited to, data privacy
and protection, environment, safety and health, exports and imports, bribery and corruption, tax, labor and employment, competition, market access, and
intellectual property ownership and infringement. Compliance with these laws, rules and regulations may be onerous and expensive and could restrict our ability to
operate our business. If we fail to comply or if we become subject to enforcement activity, we could be subject to fines, penalties or other legal liability.
Furthermore, should these laws, rules and regulations be amended or expanded, or new ones enacted, we could incur materially greater compliance costs or
restrictions on our ability to operate our business.
Among other laws and regulations, we are subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) effective in the European Union (“EU”), which created a
data protection compliance regime that imposed substantial obligations on companies collecting, processing and transferring personal data and may impose
significant penalties for non-compliance. Similarly, certain jurisdictions in the United States and some countries in which we operate may consider or have passed
legislation implementing data protection requirements that could require us to change our business practices and increase the cost and complexity of compliance. In
addition to GDPR, we are subject to the U.S. Customs and Export Regulations, including U.S. International Traffic and Arms Regulations and similar laws, which
collectively control import, export and sale of technologies by companies and various other aspects of the operation of our business, and the Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act and similar anti-bribery laws, which prohibit companies from making improper payments to government officials for the purposes of obtaining or
retaining business.
18
While our Company’s policies and procedures mandate compliance with such laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that our employees and agents will
always act in strict compliance. If we fail to comply or if we become subject to enforcement activity, we could be subject to fines, penalties or other legal liability.
Furthermore, should these laws, rules and regulations be amended or expanded, or new ones enacted, we could incur materially greater compliance costs or
restrictions on our ability to operate our business, which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition. Our failure or
inability to comply with existing or future laws, rules or regulations, or changes to existing laws, rules or regulations could subject us to fines, penalties or other
legal liability.
Our stock price may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock may be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. Fluctuations have occurred and may continue to occur in response to
various factors, including the pending ADI Merger, many of which are beyond our control.
In addition, the market prices of securities of technology companies, including those in the semiconductor industry, generally have been and remain volatile. This
volatility has significantly affected the market prices of securities of many technology companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of
the specific companies. If our actual operating results or future forecasted results do not meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors, who may derive
their expectations by extrapolating data from recent historical operating results, the market price of our common stock may decline. Accordingly, you may not be
able to resell shares of our common stock at a price equal to or higher than the price you paid for them.
Due to the nature of our compensation programs, some of our executive officers sell shares of our common stock each quarter or otherwise periodically, including
pursuant to trading plans established under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Regardless of the reasons for such sales, analysts and
investors could view such actions in a negative light and the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected as a result of such periodic sales.
Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate, which could adversely impact our common stock price.
We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indicators of future
performance. Our operating results have in the past been, and will continue to be, subject to quarterly fluctuations as a result of numerous factors, some of which
may contribute to more pronounced fluctuations in an uncertain global economic environment. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Fluctuations in demand for our products and services;
Loss of a significant customer or significant customers electing to purchase from another supplier;
Reduced visibility into our customers' spending plans and associated revenue;
The level of price and competition in our product markets;
Our pricing practices, including our use of available information to maximize pricing potential;
The impact of the uncertain economic and credit environment on our customers, channel partners, and suppliers, including their ability to obtain financing
or to fund capital expenditures;
The overall movement toward industry consolidations among our customers and competitors;
Below industry-average growth of the non-consumer segments of our business;
Announcements and introductions of new products by our competitors;
Our ability to generate sufficient earnings and cash flow to pay dividends to our stockholders;
Deferrals of customer orders in anticipation of new products or product enhancements (introduced by us or our competitors);
Our ability to meet increases in customer orders in a timely manner;
Striking an appropriate balance between short-term execution and long-term innovation;
Our ability to develop, introduce, and market new products and enhancements and market acceptance of such new products and enhancements; and
Our levels of operating expenses.
Environmental, safety and health laws and regulations could force us to expend significant capital and incur substantial costs.
Various foreign and domestic federal, state, and local government agencies impose a variety of environmental, safety and health laws and regulations on the
storage, handling, use, discharge and disposal of certain chemicals, gases and other substances used or produced in the semiconductor manufacturing process as
well as the health and safety regulations related to our employees. Historically, compliance with these regulations has not had a material adverse effect on our
capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive or financial position. There can be no assurance, however, that interpretation and enforcement of current or future
19
environmental, safety and health laws and regulations will not impose costly requirements upon us. Any failure by us to adequately control the storage, handling,
use, discharge or disposal of regulated substances could result in fines, sales limitations, suspension of production, alteration of wafer fabrication processes and
legal liability, which may materially adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
In addition, some of our customers and potential customers may require that we implement operating practices that are more stringent than applicable legal
requirements with respect to health regulations, environmental matters or other items. As a result, these requirements may increase our own costs regarding
developing, administering, monitoring and auditing these customer-requested practices at our own sites and those in our supply chain.
Material impairments of our goodwill and intangible assets could adversely affect our results of operations.
We have a significant amount of goodwill and intangible assets on our balance sheet. We test goodwill and intangible assets for impairment annually or more
frequently if certain impairment indicators arise or circumstances change that indicate fair value of a reporting unit or intangible asset may be below its carrying
amount. Determination of fair values require considerable judgment and is sensitive to inherent uncertainties and changes in estimates and assumptions. Declines
in market conditions, weak trends in anticipated financial performance of reporting units or declines in revenue projections are examples of indicators that carrying
values of goodwill or intangible assets may not be recoverable. We may be required to record an impairment that, when incurred, could have a material adverse
effect on our financial statements.
Business interruptions from natural disasters could harm our ability to produce products.
We operate our business in worldwide locations. Some of our facilities and those of our subcontractors are located in areas of the world that are susceptible to
damage from natural disasters and other significant disruptions, including earthquakes, typhoons, hurricanes, tsunamis, volcano eruptions, floods, fires, water
shortages, and other natural or man-made catastrophic events. In the event of a natural disaster, we may suffer a disruption in our operations that could adversely
affect our results of operations.
Our financial condition, operations and liquidity may be materially adversely affected in the event of a catastrophic loss for which we are self-insured.
We are primarily self-insured with respect to many of our commercial risks and exposures. Based on management's assessment and judgment, we have determined
that it is generally more cost effective to self-insure these risks. The risks and exposures we self-insure include, but are not limited to, fire, property and casualty,
natural disasters, product defects, political risk, social unrest, general liability, theft, counterfeits, patent infringement, certain employment practice matters and
medical benefits for many of our U.S. employees. Should there be catastrophic loss from events such as fires, explosions, volcano eruptions, earthquakes, or man-
made and other natural disasters, among many other risks, or adverse court or similar decisions in any area in which we are self-insured, our financial condition,
results of operations, and liquidity may be materially adversely affected.
We may be materially adversely affected by currency fluctuations.
We conduct our manufacturing and other operations in various worldwide locations. A portion of our operating costs and expenses at foreign locations are paid in
local currencies. Many of the materials used in our products and much of the manufacturing process for our products are supplied by foreign companies or by our
foreign operations, such as our test operations in the Philippines and Thailand. Approximately 89%, 89% and 88% of our net revenues in fiscal years 2020, 2019
and 2018, respectively, were from shipments to customers located outside the United States. Currency exchange fluctuations could decrease revenue and increase
our operating costs, the cost of components manufactured abroad, and the cost of our products to foreign customers, or decrease the costs of products produced by
our foreign competitors.
Our debt covenants may limit us from engaging in certain transactions or other activities.
We have entered into debt arrangements that contain certain covenants which may limit the manner in which we conduct our business. For example, the debt
indentures that govern our outstanding notes include covenants that, under certain circumstances, limit our ability to grant liens on our facilities and to enter into
sale and leaseback transactions, which could limit our ability to secure additional debt funding in the future. In circumstances involving a change of control of the
Company followed by a downgrade of the rating of the notes, we would be required to make an offer to repurchase the affected notes at a purchase price greater
than the aggregate principal amount of such notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Our ability to repurchase the notes in such events may be limited by our then-
available financial resources or by the terms of other agreements to which we are a party.
20
Although we currently have the funds necessary to retire this debt, funds might not be available to repay the notes when they become due in the future.
We are required to comply with the covenants set forth in our debt indentures. If we breach any of the covenants and do not obtain a waiver from the note holders
or lenders, then, subject to cure periods, any outstanding indebtedness may be declared immediately due and payable.
Exiting certain product lines or businesses, or restructuring our operations, may adversely affect certain customer relationships and produce results that differ
from our intended outcomes.
The nature of our business requires strategic changes from time to time, including restructuring our operations and divesting and consolidating certain product lines
and businesses. The sale of facilities, or the exiting of certain product lines or businesses, may adversely affect certain customer relationships, which may have a
material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Additionally, our ability to timely shut down our facilities or otherwise exit
product lines and businesses, or to close or consolidate operations, depends on a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. If we are unable to
shut down a facility or exit a product line or business in a timely manner, or to restructure our operations in a manner we deem to be advantageous, this could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Even if the sale of a facility or divestment is successful, we may face
indemnity and other liability claims by the acquirer or other parties.
Our certificate of incorporation contains certain anti-takeover provisions that may discourage, delay or prevent a hostile change in control of our Company.
Our certificate of incorporation permits our Board of Directors to authorize the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the rights,
preferences and privileges and restrictions applicable to such shares without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Any such issuance might discourage,
delay or prevent a hostile change in control of our Company, which may be considered beneficial to our stockholders.

In addition to the property listed in the above table, we also lease sales, engineering, administration and manufacturing offices and other premises at various
locations in the United States and internationally under operating leases, none of which are material to our future cash flows. These leases expire at various dates
through fiscal year 2031. We anticipate no difficulty in retaining occupancy of any of our other manufacturing, office, or sales facilities through lease renewals
prior to expiration or through month-to-month occupancy or in replacing them with equivalent facilities.
We expect these facilities to be adequate for our business purposes through at least the next 12 months.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Legal Proceedings
We are party or subject to various legal proceedings and claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings
and claims that relate to intellectual property matters. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the outcome of
any of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will result in losses that are materially in excess of amounts already recognized or reserved, if any.
Indemnifications
We indemnify certain customers, distributors, suppliers, and subcontractors for attorney fees, damages, and costs awarded against such parties in certain
circumstances in which our products are alleged to infringe third party intellectual property rights, including patents, registered trademarks, or copyrights. The
terms of our indemnification obligations are generally perpetual from the effective date of the agreement. In certain cases, there are limits on and exceptions to our
potential liability for indemnification relating to intellectual property infringement claims.
Pursuant to our charter documents and separate written indemnification agreements, we have certain indemnification obligations to our current officers, employees,
and directors, as well as certain former officers and directors.

Total
On October 30, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of the Company’s common stock. The number of
shares to be repurchased and the timing of such repurchases will be based on several factors, including the price of the Company's common stock and liquidity and
general market and business conditions.
During fiscal year 2020, we repurchased approximately 7.9 million shares of our common stock for $440.8 million. As of June 27, 2020, we had a remaining
authorization of $0.7 billion for future share repurchases. Pursuant to the terms of the ADI Merger Agreement, the Company suspended its repurchase program on
July 13, 2020, the date we announced our planned merger with ADI.
Dividend Policy
A cash dividend of $0.48 per share will be paid on September 11, 2020, to stockholders of record on August 27, 2020. The Company will neither declare nor pay a
dividend in any of the next succeeding four fiscal quarters as the ADI Merger Agreement restricts the Company's ability to declare or pay dividends during that
period.
Stock Performance Graph
The line graph below compares the cumulative total stockholder return on our common stock with the cumulative total return of the NASDAQ Composite Index,
the Standard & Poor's ("S&P") 500 Index, and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index for the five years ended June 27, 2020. The graph and table assume that $100

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in Part IV, Item 15(a),
the risk factors included in Part I, Item 1A, and the “forward-looking statements” and other risks described herein and elsewhere in this Annual Report.
The ADI Merger
The completion of the ADI Merger under the ADI Merger Agreement is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, the approval of Maxim
Integrated’s stockholders, the approval of Analog Devices’ shareholders and the receipt of various regulatory approvals. Subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent
permissible) waiver of such conditions, the ADI Merger is expected to close in the summer of 2021. For additional information on the ADI Merger Agreement and
the ADI Merger, please refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on July 13, 2020. The Company cannot guarantee that the ADI
Merger will be completed on a timely basis or at all or that, if completed, it will be completed on the terms set forth in the ADI Merger Agreement.
Overview
We are a global company with manufacturing facilities in the United States, the Philippines and Thailand, and sales offices and design centers throughout the
world. We design, develop, manufacture and market linear and mixed-signal integrated circuits, commonly referred to as analog circuits, for a large number of
customers in diverse geographical locations. The analog market is fragmented and characterized by diverse applications, a great number of product variations and,
with respect to many circuit types, relatively long product life cycles. The major end-markets in which we sell our products are the automotive, communications
and data center, consumer, and industrial markets. We are incorporated in the State of Delaware.
Critical Accounting Policies
The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial
statements. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the
presentation of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require us to make our most difficult and subjective accounting judgments, often as a
result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, our most critical accounting policies include valuation of
inventories, accounting for income taxes, and assessment of litigation and contingencies. These policies and the estimates and judgments involved are discussed
further below. We have other significant accounting policies that either do not generally require estimates and judgments that are as difficult or subjective, or it is
less likely that such accounting policies would have a material impact on our reported results of operations for a given period. Our significant accounting policies
are described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of (i) standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in-first-out basis, or (ii) net realizable value. Our standard cost
revision policy is to monitor manufacturing variances and revise standard costs on a periodic basis. At each reporting period, we assess our ending inventories for
excess quantities and obsolescence based on our projected sales outlook. This assessment includes analysis of projections of future demand. Because of the cyclical
nature of the market, inventory levels, obsolescence of technology, and product life cycles, we generally write-down inventories to net realizable value based on
this forecasted product demand analysis. Actual demand and market conditions may be lower than those projected by us. This difference could have a material
adverse effect on our gross margin should inventory write-downs beyond those initially recorded become necessary. Alternatively, should actual demand and
market conditions be more favorable than those estimated by us, gross margin could be favorably impacted as we release these reserves upon the ultimate product
shipment. During fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we had net inventory write-downs of $16.5 million and $36.1 million, respectively.
Accounting for Income Taxes
We must make certain estimates and judgments in the calculation of income tax expense, determination of uncertain tax positions, and in the determination of
whether deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized. The calculation of our income tax expense and income tax liabilities involves dealing with
uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations.
26
ASC No. 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”), prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement framework for financial statement reporting and disclosure
of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, a tax position is recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than
not, based on the technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. A tax
position that meets the recognition threshold is then measured to determine the largest amount of the benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being
realized upon settlement. Although we believe that our computation of tax benefits to be recognized and realized are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the
final outcome will not be different from what was reflected in our income tax provisions and accruals. Such differences could have a material impact on our net
income and operating results in the period in which such determination is made. See Note 17: "Income Taxes" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
included in Part IV, Item 15(a) of this Annual Report for further information related to ASC 740-10.
We evaluate our deferred tax asset balance and record a valuation allowance to reduce the net deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be
realized. In the event it is determined that the deferred tax assets to be realized in the future would be in excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the
deferred tax asset valuation allowance would be recorded. This adjustment would increase income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should it
be determined that all or part of the net deferred tax asset would not be realized in the future, an adjustment to increase the deferred tax asset valuation allowance
would be charged to income in the period such determination is made. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, historical levels of income, expectations and
risks associated with estimates of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and practicable tax planning strategies are considered. Realization of our deferred tax
asset is dependent primarily upon future taxable income in the U.S. and certain foreign jurisdictions. Our judgments regarding future profitability may change due
to future market conditions, changes in U.S. or international tax laws and other factors. These changes, if any, may require material adjustments to the net deferred
tax asset and an accompanying reduction or increase in net income in the period in which such determinations are made.
Litigation and Contingencies
From time to time, we receive notices that our products or manufacturing processes may be infringing the patent or other intellectual property rights of others,
notices of stockholder litigation or other lawsuits or claims against us. We periodically assess each matter in order to determine if a contingent liability in
accordance with ASC No. 450, Contingencies (“ASC 450”), should be recorded. In making this determination, management may, depending on the nature of the
matter, consult with internal and external legal counsel and technical experts. We expense legal fees associated with consultations and defense of lawsuits as
incurred. Based on the information obtained, combined with management's judgment regarding all of the facts and circumstances of each matter, we determine
whether a contingent loss is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be estimated. Should a loss be probable and estimable, we record a contingent loss.
In determining the amount of a contingent loss, we take into consideration advice received from experts in the specific matter, the current status of legal
proceedings, settlement negotiations which may be ongoing, prior case history and other factors. Should the judgments and estimates made by management be
incorrect, we may need to record additional contingent losses that could materially adversely impact our results of operations. Alternatively, if the judgments and
estimates made by management are incorrect and a particular contingent loss does not occur, the contingent loss recorded would be reversed, thereby favorably
impacting our results of operations.
Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and will continue to impact the Company’s operations, employees, customers, and suppliers, due to shelter-in-
place orders, mandated quarantines, reduced facility operations, and travel bans and restrictions. While the operating results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2021
and thereafter may be impacted by COVID-19, the extent and form of such impact to our business is uncertain and cannot be estimated with any degree of
certainty.
Employee Health and Safety
During the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2020, the Company's facilities and offices were either operating at reduced capacity or temporarily closed for
non-essential operations. In an effort to protect the health and safety of our employees, we implemented safety measures such as work-from-home practices, travel
restrictions, extensive cleaning protocols, and social distancing when engaging in essential activities.
Focus on Customers
We continue to work with our sales, supplier, and customer design and engineering teams to meet current demand. Teams meet remotely, through telephonic or
video conferences and by leveraging available technology, to continue the design and engineering process that would normally take place at physical customer
locations.
Manufacturing and Operations
27
We will continue to actively monitor this evolving situation and implement changes to protect employee health. In addition to our actions, we will continue to
implement government-placed orders in all our locations. While COVID-19 related disruptions have impacted our manufacturing operations, we continue to
leverage our manufacturing flexibility to reduce the negative effects of such disruptions.
For a further discussion of the uncertainties and business risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, see Part I, Item 1A - Risk Factors of this Annual Report.

A review of our fiscal year 2020 performance compared to fiscal year 2019 performance appears below. A review of our fiscal year 2019 performance compared to
fiscal year 2018 performance is set forth in Part II, Item 7 of the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2019 under the caption "Results of Operations".
Net Revenues
We reported net revenues of $2.2 billion and $2.3 billion in fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our net revenues in fiscal year 2020 decreased by 5%
compared to our net revenues in fiscal year 2019.
Revenue from consumer products was down 21% due to lower demand in cell phone products, partially offset by a higher demand in wearable products. Revenue
from communications and data center products was up 11% due to higher demand for base station
28
and data center products, partially offset by lower demand in network and datacom products. Revenue from automotive products was down 5% due to lower
demand in auto body electronics and infotainment products, partially offset by higher demand in safety and security products. These results include net revenues
for the fiscal year 2019 that align with our revised end-market categories.
Approximately 89% of our net revenues in fiscal years 2020 and 2019, were derived from shipments to customers located outside the United States, primarily in
Asia and Europe. Less than 1% of our sales are denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. The impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on net revenues
and our results of operations for fiscal years 2020 and 2019 were immaterial.
Gross Margin
Our gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 65.4% in fiscal year 2020 compared to 64.8% in fiscal year 2019. Despite the decrease in net revenue in fiscal
year 2020 compared to fiscal year 2019, gross margins as a percentage of net revenue was higher due to lower inventory reserves and lower amortization expenses
recognized in cost of goods sold in fiscal year 2020 compared to fiscal year 2019.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses were $440.2 million and $435.2 million for fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively, which represented 20.1% and 18.8% of
net revenues, respectively. The $4.9 million increase in research and development expenses was due to higher salaries and other personnel related costs.
The level of research and development expenditures as a percentage of net revenues will vary from period to period depending, in part, on the level of net revenues
and on our success in recruiting the technical personnel needed for our new product introductions and process development. We view research and development
expenditures as critical to maintaining a high level of new product introductions, which in turn are critical to our plans for future growth.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $296.7 million and $308.6 million in fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively, which represented 13.5% and
13.3% of net revenues, respectively. The $11.9 million decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was due to lower depreciation and travel expenses.
The level of selling, general and administrative expenditures as a percentage of net revenues will vary from period to period, depending on the level of net revenues
and our success in recruiting sales and administrative personnel needed to support our operations.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest and other income (expense), net was $(8.3) million in fiscal year 2020 and $7.3 million in fiscal year 2019, which represented (0.4)% and 0.3% of net
revenues, respectively. The change in interest income (expense) is due to lower interest income, partially offset by lower interest expense. Interest income is lower
by $17.6 million due to lower investment yields from cash equivalents and short-term investments. Interest expense is lower by $7.7 million due to repayment of
$500.0 million of notes in November 2018.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes
Our annual income tax expense (benefit) was $23.4 million and ($73.1) million for fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively. The effective tax rate was 3.5% and
(9.7)% for fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively.
On December 22, 2017 legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”), was enacted. The Act included a one-time tax on accumulated
unremitted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries (“Transition Tax”). SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 allowed the use of provisional amounts (reasonable
estimates) if accounting for the income tax effects of the Act was not completed. Provisional amounts must be adjusted within a one-year measurement period from
the enactment date of the Act. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company recorded a $236.9 million provisional Transition Tax charge. During the
measurement period we gathered information and analyzed available guidance and in the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 recorded a $22.1 million Transition
Tax charge, which increased the Company’s fiscal year 2019 tax rate by 2.9%. As of the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 accounting for income tax
effects of the Act was completed.
29
The Act included Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions, which first impact us in fiscal year 2019. The GILTI provisions effectively subject
income earned by our foreign subsidiaries to current U.S. tax at a rate of 10.5%, less foreign tax credits. We elected to treat tax generated by the GILTI provisions
as a period expense.
In fiscal year 2019, we reversed $221.5 million of uncertain tax position reserves and $30.1 million of related interest reserves, net of federal and state benefits,
primarily due to the fiscal fourth quarter settlement of an audit of our fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year 2011 federal corporate income tax returns, which also
settled intercompany buy-in license payment issues for fiscal year 2012 through fiscal year 2019. Fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year 2018 advance tax payments
made in June 2018 of $140.7 million were applied to additional federal tax liabilities generated by the settlement. The reversal of uncertain tax position reserves for
intercompany transfer pricing issues increased accumulated unremitted foreign earnings, which resulted in an additional Transition Tax charge of $47.7 million in
the fiscal fourth quarter.
In fiscal year 2020, we reversed $40.5 million of uncertain tax position reserves and $10.7 million of related interest reserves, net of federal and state benefits,
primarily due to the fiscal fourth quarter settlement of an audit of our fiscal year 2012 through fiscal year 2014 federal corporate income tax returns. The reversal
of uncertain tax position reserves for intercompany transfer pricing issues increased accumulated unremitted foreign earnings, which resulted in an additional
Transition Tax charge of $6.5 million in the fiscal fourth quarter.
Our federal statutory tax rate is 21%. Our fiscal year 2020 effective tax rate was lower than the statutory tax rate primarily due to the $51.2 million reversal of
uncertain tax position and related interest reserves, and earnings of foreign subsidiaries, generated primarily by our international operations managed in Ireland,
that were taxed at lower rates. These impacts were partially offset by tax generated by GILTI provisions and a $6.5 million Transition Tax charge.
Our fiscal year 2019 effective tax rate was lower than the statutory tax rate primarily due to the $251.6 million reversal of uncertain tax position and related interest
reserves, and earnings of foreign subsidiaries, generated primarily by our international operations managed in Ireland, that were taxed at lower rates. These impacts
were partially offset by tax generated by GILTI provisions and a $68.7 million Transition Tax charge.
We have various entities domiciled within and outside the United States. The following is a breakout of our U.S. and foreign income (loss) before income taxes:

A relative increase in earnings in lower tax jurisdictions, such as Ireland, may lower our consolidated effective tax rate, while a relative increase in earnings in
higher tax jurisdictions, such as the United States, may increase our consolidated effective tax rate. However, after fiscal year 2018 the consolidated effective tax
rate impact of earnings changes in various tax jurisdictions is not as significant due to the reduction of the federal statutory tax rate from 35% to 21% by the Act
and the GILTI provisions, which effectively subject income earned by our foreign subsidiaries to current U.S. tax at a rate of 10.5%, less foreign tax credits.

Cash provided by operating activities is net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in certain assets and liabilities.
Cash provided by operating activities was $800.9 million in fiscal year 2020, a decrease of $75.0 million compared with fiscal year 2019. This decrease was
primarily caused by a decrease in net income of $172.8 million and changes in working capital. Changes in working capital were driven by a decrease in changes
in income tax payable, accrued salary and related expenses, and other liabilities, partially offset by a decrease in changes in accounts receivable, inventory and
other assets.
Investing Activities
Investing cash flows consist primarily of capital expenditures, net investment purchases and maturities, and acquisitions.
Cash used in investing activities was $32.0 million in fiscal year 2020, a decrease of $889.0 million compared with fiscal year 2019. The change was due to a $1.0
billion decrease in maturities of available-for-sale securities, partially offset by a $214.6 million decrease in purchases of available-for-sale securities. The
Company also paid $69.3 million, net of cash acquired, for an acquisition during fiscal year 2020.
Financing Activities
Financing cash flows consist primarily of new borrowings, repurchases of common stock, issuance and repayment of notes payables, payment of dividends to
stockholders, proceeds from stock option exercises and employee stock purchase plan and withholding tax payments associated with net share settlements of equity
awards.
Net cash used in financing activities was $940.7 million in fiscal year 2020, a decrease of $578.2 million compared with fiscal year 2019. Cash used in financing
activities was lower due to a payment of $500.0 million of debt in fiscal year 2019 and a decrease in repurchases of common stock of $98.3 million, partially offset
by an increase in dividend payments of $11.6 million.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary source of liquidity is our cash flows from operating activities resulting from net income and management of working capital.
As of June 27, 2020, our available funds consisted of $1.6 billion in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.
In January 2019, the Company terminated its $350.0 million revolving credit facility with certain institutional lenders.
In November 2018, the Company repaid $500.0 million of principal and related outstanding interest of the Company's 2.5% coupon notes.
On October 30, 2018, we were authorized to repurchase up to $1.5 billion of the Company's common stock. During the years ended June 27, 2020 and June 29,
2019, we repurchased an aggregate of $440.8 million and $539.2 million, respectively, of the Company's common stock. Pursuant to the terms of the ADI Merger
Agreement, the Company suspended its repurchase program on July 13, 2020, the date we announced our planned merger with ADI.
31
We anticipate that the available funds and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet cash and working capital requirements, including the
anticipated level of capital expenditures and debt repayments for at least the next twelve months.
A cash dividend of $0.48 per share will be paid on September 11, 2020, to stockholders of record on August 27, 2020. The Company will neither declare nor pay a
dividend in any of the next succeeding four fiscal quarters, as provided in the ADI Merger Agreement..

(1) Outstanding debt represents amounts due for our long-term notes.
(2) We order materials and supplies in advance or with minimum purchase quantities. We are obligated to pay for the materials and supplies when received.
(3) Transition tax on accumulated unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries at December 31, 2017, paid in eight interest-free installments beginning in September 2018.
(4) Interest payments calculated based on contractual payment requirements under the debt agreements.
(5) We lease facilities under non-cancelable operating lease agreements that expire at various dates through fiscal year 2031.
Purchase orders for the purchase of the majority of our raw materials and other goods and services are not included above. Our purchase orders generally allow for
cancellation without significant penalties. We do not have significant agreements for the purchase of raw materials or other goods specifying minimum quantities
or set prices that exceed our expected short-term requirements.
As of June 27, 2020, our gross unrecognized income tax benefits were $174.3 million which excludes $24.6 million of accrued interest. We are unable to make a
reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of payments of these amounts, if any, in individual years due to uncertainties in the timing or outcomes of either actual or
anticipated tax audits. As a result, these amounts are not included in the table above.
Off-Balance-Sheet Arrangements
As of June 27, 2020, we did not have any material off-balance-sheet arrangements, as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of SEC Regulation S-K.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and notes payable. See Note 6:
“Financial Instruments” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report. We do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge
the ongoing risk of interest rate volatility. At June 27, 2020, we maintained a significant portfolio of money market fund investments, which are included in cash
and cash equivalents. These money market funds are generally invested only in U.S. government or agency securities and are all available on a daily basis. Our
short-term investments are in U.S. government, corporate and bank debt securities. Our long-term notes payable are all fixed rate securities and as such, we have
no financial statement risk associated with changes in interest rates related to these notes.
32
To assess the interest rate risk associated with our outstanding long-term debt portfolio, we performed sensitivity analysis for our long-term notes as of June 27,
2020, using a modeling technique that measures the change in the fair values arising from a hypothetical 100 basis points increase in the levels of interest rates
across the entire yield curve, with all other variables held constant. The discount rates used were based on the market interest rates in effect at June 27, 2020. The
sensitivity analysis indicated that a hypothetical 100 basis points increase in interest rates would result in a reduction in the fair values of our long-term notes of
$46.1 million.
Foreign Currency Risk
We generate less than 1.0% of our revenues in various global markets based on orders obtained in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. We incur expenditures
denominated in non-U.S. currencies, primarily the Philippine Peso and the Thai Baht associated with our manufacturing activities in the Philippines and Thailand,
respectively, and expenditures for sales offices and research and development activities undertaken outside of the U.S. We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates primarily on cash flows for expenditures, orders, and accounts receivable from sales in these foreign currencies. We have established risk
management strategies designed to reduce the impact of volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in the exchange rate for these currencies. These strategies
reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the impact of currency exchange rate movements. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading
purposes. We routinely hedge our exposure to certain foreign currencies with various financial institutions in an effort to minimize the impact of certain currency
exchange rate fluctuations. If a financial counterparty to any of our hedging arrangements experiences financial difficulties or is otherwise unable to honor the
terms of the foreign currency hedge, we may experience financial losses.
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges under ASC No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), the effective portion of
the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and reclassified into earnings into the same
financial statement line as the item being hedged, and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the
derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized each period in interest and
other income (expense), net.
For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815, gains and losses are recognized each period in interest and other income
(expense), net. All derivatives are foreign currency forward contracts to hedge certain foreign currency denominated assets or liabilities. The gains and losses on
these derivatives largely offset the changes in the fair value of the assets or liabilities being hedged.
As of June 27, 2020, we had outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts with a total notional amount of $105.8 million. If overall foreign currency exchange
rates appreciated (depreciated) uniformly by 10% against the U.S. dollar, our foreign currency derivative contracts outstanding as of June 27, 2020 would
experience an approximately $8.2 million gain (loss).
Foreign Exchange Contracts
The net unrealized gain or loss, if any, is potentially subject to market and credit risk as it represents appreciation (decline) of the hedge position against the spot
exchange rates. The net realized and unrealized gains or losses from hedging foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities were immaterial during the fiscal
years ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
The financial statements and supplementary data required by this Item are set forth at the pages indicated in Part IV, Item 15(a) of this Annual Report and
incorporated by reference herein.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer (“CEO”) and our chief financial officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as
33
of June 27, 2020. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and our CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on the evaluation, our CEO and our CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of
June 27, 2020.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)
under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company's CEO and CFO and effected
by the Company's Board of Directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our management, with the participation of
our CEO and our CFO, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 27, 2020. Management's assessment of internal control
over financial reporting was conducted using the criteria in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Our management has concluded that, as of June 27, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was effective,
based on these criteria. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, audited the effectiveness of the Company's internal
control over financial reporting, as of June 27, 2020, as stated within their report which is included herein.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 27, 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely
to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, most of the Company’s employees are working remotely, and
the Company is striving to minimize the impact of this on the design and effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company is
continually monitoring and assessing its internal control over financial reporting and has not experienced any material impact to its internal control over financial
reporting due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls over Financial Reporting and Disclosure Controls and Procedures
A system of internal control over financial reporting is intended to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and no control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance. The design of
any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect financial statement errors and misstatements. Also, projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may
become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (“Maxim Integrated," the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), incorporated in Delaware, designs, develops, manufactures, and
markets a broad range of linear and mixed-signal integrated circuits, commonly referred to as analog circuits, for a large number of customers in diverse
geographical locations. The Company also provides a range of high-frequency process technologies and capabilities for use in custom designs. The analog market
is fragmented and characterized by diverse applications and a great number of product variations with varying product life cycles. Maxim Integrated is a global
company with a manufacturing facility in the United States, testing facilities in the Philippines and Thailand, and sales and circuit design offices throughout the
world. Integrated circuit assembly is performed by foreign assembly subcontractors, located in countries throughout Asia, where wafers are separated into
individual integrated circuits and assembled into a variety of packages. The major end-markets in which the Company's products are sold are the automotive,
communications and data center, consumer, and industrial markets.
The Company has a 52-to-53-week fiscal year that ends on the last Saturday of June. Accordingly, every fifth or sixth year will be a 53-week fiscal year. The fiscal
year ended June 27, 2020 was a 52-week fiscal year. Fiscal years 2019 and 2018 were 52-week and 53-week fiscal years, respectively. Fiscal years 2019 and 2018
ended on June 29, 2019, and June 30, 2018, respectively.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates relate to the useful lives and fair value of fixed assets, valuation
allowance for deferred tax assets, reserves relating to uncertain tax positions, allowance for distributor credits, inventory valuation, reserves relating to litigation
matters, assumptions about the fair value of reporting units and asset groups, accrued liabilities and reserves, and the value of intangibles acquired associated with
business combinations. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on its historical experience, knowledge of current conditions and its beliefs of what could
occur in the future, given available information. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
The ongoing novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and the mitigation efforts by governments to attempt to control its spread created uncertainties and
disruptions in the economic and financial markets. The Company is not aware of events or circumstances that would require an update to its estimates, judgments,
or adjustments to the carrying values of its assets or liabilities as of August 19, 2020, the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These estimates
may change as developments occur and as the Company obtains additional information. These future developments are highly uncertain, and the outcomes,
unpredictable. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash Equivalents and Investments
The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash
equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents may consist of demand accounts, money market funds, U.S. Treasury securities, agency securities, corporate debt securities,
certificates of deposit, and commercial paper. Short-term investments may consist of U.S. treasury debt securities, agency securities, corporate debt securities,
certificates of deposit, and commercial paper with original maturities beyond three months at the date of purchase.
The Company's short-term investments are considered available-for-sale and classified as short-term as these investments generally consist of highly marketable
securities that are available to meet near-term cash requirements. Such securities are carried at fair market value based on market quotes and other observable
inputs. Unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, on securities in this category are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Realized gains
and losses on sales of investment
43
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
securities are determined based on the specific identification method and are included in Interest and other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of
Income.
The Company's long-term equity investments consist of investments in privately-held companies without readily determinable fair values and are included in Other
assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Equity investments are measured using the measurement alternative, which is defined as cost, less impairment, adjusted
for observable price changes from orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. The Company uses various inputs to evaluate equity
investments including valuations of recent financing events as well as other information regarding the issuer’s historical and forecasted performance.
Derivative Instruments
The Company incurs expenditures denominated in non-U.S. currencies, primarily the Philippine Peso and the Thai Baht associated with the Company's
manufacturing activities in the Philippines and Thailand, respectively, and European Euro, Indian Rupee, Taiwan New Dollar, South Korean Won, Chinese Yuan,
Japanese Yen, Singapore Dollar, and Canadian Dollar expenditures for sales offices and research and development activities undertaken outside of the U.S. The
Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates for cash flows for expenditures and on orders and accounts receivable from sales in these
foreign currencies. The Company has established risk management strategies designed to reduce the impact of volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in
the exchange rate for these currencies. These strategies reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the impact of currency exchange rates movements.
Currency forward contracts are used to offset the currency risk of non-U.S. dollar-denominated assets and liabilities. The Company typically enters into currency
forward contracts to hedge exposures associated with its expenditures denominated in European Euro, Philippine Peso, Thai Baht and South Korean Won. The
Company also hedges smaller expense exposures in several other foreign currencies. The Company enters into currency forward contracts to hedge its accounts
receivable and backlog denominated in European Euro, Japanese Yen and British Pound. Changes in fair value of the underlying assets and liabilities are generally
offset by the changes in fair value of the related currency forward contract.
The Company uses currency forward contracts to hedge exposure to variability in anticipated non-U.S. dollar-denominated cash flows. These contracts are
designated as cash flow hedges and recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at their fair market value. The maturities of these instruments are generally less
than six months. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is
reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and reported within the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. These
amounts have been reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivative instruments that are
not designated as hedging instruments, gains and losses are recognized immediately in “Interest income (expense) and other, net” in the Consolidated Statements of
Income.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of (i) standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in-first-out basis, or (ii) net realizable value. The Company's
standard cost revision policy is to monitor manufacturing variances and revise standard costs on a periodic basis. A write-down to net realizable value is recorded if
excess quantities or obsolescence is identified. At each reporting period, we assess our ending inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence based on our
projected sales outlook. This assessment, which requires significant judgment by management, includes analysis of projections of future demand. Because of the
cyclical nature of the market, inventory levels, obsolescence of technology, and product life cycles, we generally write-down inventories to net realizable value
based on forecasted product demand.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is primarily computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which
range from 2 to 15 years for machinery, equipment, and software and up to 40 years for buildings and building improvements. Leasehold improvements are
amortized over the lesser of their useful lives or the remaining term of the related lease. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated
depreciation or amortization is removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The classification
is based mainly on whether the asset is operating or not.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
44
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company reviews goodwill and intangible assets for impairment annually in the fourth fiscal quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable, such as when reductions in demand or significant economic slowdowns in the semiconductor
industry are present.
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price in a business combination over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company
tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis or more frequently if the
Company believes indicators of impairment exist. The Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a
reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, as a result of the qualitative assessment, the Company determines that it is more likely than not that the fair value
of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the Company performs the quantitative goodwill impairment test. This test involves comparing the fair
values of the applicable reporting units with their aggregate carrying values, including goodwill. The Company determines the fair value of the Company's
reporting units using the income approach methodology of valuation that includes the discounted cash flow method as well as the market approach which includes
the guideline company method. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit's fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment of
goodwill measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value with the loss recognized not to exceed the total amount of
goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
Acquisition-related in-process research and development assets ("IPR&D") represent the fair value of incomplete projects that have not yet reached technological
feasibility. IPR&D assets are subject to amortization when the research and development projects are completed. The Company amortizes all other intangible
assets over their estimated useful lives.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company performs periodic reviews to determine whether facts and circumstances exist that would indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets are
not recoverable and exceed their fair values. If facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets might not be fully recoverable,
projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated remaining useful lives are compared against their
respective carrying amounts. In the event that the projected undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of the assets, the assets are
written down to their estimated fair values based on their expected discounted future cash flows attributable to those assets.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets are recorded as other assets, short-term lease
obligations are recorded as accrued expenses and long-term lease obligations are recorded as other liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. The
Company’s classes of assets include real estate leases, equipment leases, and vehicle leases.
Lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date.
When discount rates implicit in leases cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at
commencement date in determining the present value of future payments.
Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such option. Lease expense is
recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company elected to combine lease and non-lease components for all asset classes. In addition, the
Company does not apply the recognition requirements to leases with lease terms of 12 months or less.
Product Warranty
The Company generally warrants its products for one year from the date of shipment against defects in materials, workmanship and material non-conformance to
the Company’s specifications. The general warranty policy provides for the repair or replacement of defective products or a credit to the customer’s account. In
limited circumstances, the Company may consider extending its warranty for up to five years. It may also include limited financial responsibility, such as the
payment of monetary compensation to reimburse a customer for its financial losses beyond repairing or replacing the product or crediting the customer’s account
should the product not meet the Company’s specifications, or to reimburse a customer for losses or damages that result from the defective product.
Accruals are based on specifically identified claims and on the estimated, undiscounted cost of incurred-but-not-reported claims. If there is a material increase in
the rate of customer claims compared with the Company's historical experience or if the Company's
45
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
estimates of probable losses relating to specifically identified warranty exposures require revision, the Company may record a charge against future cost of sales.
The short-term and long-term portions of the product warranty liability are included within the balance sheet captions Accrued expenses and Other liabilities,
respectively, in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue for sales to direct customers and distribution customers ("distributors") when a customer obtains control of promised goods or
services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The transaction price is
calculated as selling price net of variable considerations, such as distributor price adjustments. In determining the transaction price, the Company evaluates
whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the net consideration it is expected to realize. The transaction price does not include amounts
collected on behalf of another party, such as sales taxes or value added taxes. The Company elected the practical expedient to not disclose the value of unsatisfied
performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which it recognizes revenue at the amount to
which it has the right to invoice for services performed. The Company estimates returns for sales to direct customers and distributors based on historical return
rates applied against current period gross revenue. Specific customer returns and allowances are considered within this estimate.
Accounts receivable from direct customers and distributors are recognized and inventory is relieved upon shipment as title to inventories generally transfers upon
shipment, at which point the Company has a legally enforceable right to collection under normal terms. Accounts receivable related to consigned inventory is
recognized when the customer takes title to such inventory from its consigned location, at which point inventory is relieved, title transfers, and the Company has a
legally enforceable right to collection under the terms of the agreement with the related customers. Customers are generally required to pay for products and
services within the Company’s standard terms, which is net 30 days from the date of invoice.
The Company estimates potential future returns and sales allowances related to current period product revenue. Management analyzes historical returns, changes in
customer demand and acceptance of products when evaluating the adequacy of returns and sales allowances. Estimates made may differ from actual returns and
sales allowances. These differences may materially impact reported revenue and amounts ultimately collected on accounts receivable. Historically, such
differences have not been material.
Distributor price adjustments are estimated based on the Company's historical experience rates and also considering economic conditions and contractual terms. To
date, actual distributor claims activity has been materially consistent with the estimates that the Company has made based on its historical rates.
The Company's revenue arrangements do not contain significant financing components. Revenue is recognized at the time control of the products transfer to the
customer or when it is assessed that performance obligations are satisfied. When any of the following criteria is fulfilled, revenue is recognized:
(a) The customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the performance completed. (b) Performance creates or enhances an asset (for
example, work in process) that the customer controls as the asset is created or enhanced. (c) Performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and has an
enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.
Related Party Transactions
A member of the Company's Board of Directors is also a member of the Board of Directors of Flextronics International Ltd. During the fiscal years ended June 27,
2020, June 29, 2019, and June 30, 2018, the Company sold approximately $58.0 million, $44.7 million, and $61.6 million, respectively, in products to Flextronics
International Ltd., a contract manufacturer, in the ordinary course of its business.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Such costs consist primarily of expenditures for labor and benefits, masks, prototype wafers and
depreciation.
Shipping Costs
Shipping costs billed to customers are included in net revenues and the related shipping costs are included in cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Statements of
Income.
46
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the awards ultimately expected to vest and is recognized as an expense, on
a straight-line basis, over the requisite service period. ASC No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, allows forfeitures to be either expensed as incurred or
estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures or vesting differ from those estimates. The Company has elected
to estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and update if necessary. Such updates could have a material effect on the Company's operating results.
Foreign Currency Translation and Remeasurement
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for the Company's foreign operations. Using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency, monetary assets and liabilities are
remeasured at the year-end exchange rates. Certain non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured using historical rates. Consolidated Statements of Income
are remeasured at the average exchange rates during the year. Foreign exchange gains and losses as recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all
periods presented were not material.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach as prescribed in ASC No. 740-10, Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”). The Company
records the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current and prior years and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events
that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more
likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.
ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement framework for the financial statement reporting and disclosure of an income tax position taken or
expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, a tax position is recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not, based on the
technical merits, that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. A tax position that meets
the recognition threshold is then measured to determine the largest amount of the benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes in the Consolidated
Statements of Income.
The calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws across multiple tax
jurisdictions. Although ASC 740-10 provides clarification on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements, the recognition
threshold and measurement framework will continue to require significant judgment by management. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent
with the Company's expectations could have a material impact on the Company's results of operations.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share incorporate
the potentially dilutive incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options, the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units and
market stock units, and the assumed issuance of common stock under the stock purchase plan. The number of incremental shares from the assumed issuance of
common stock under the stock purchase plan is calculated by applying the treasury stock method.
Litigation and Contingencies
From time to time, the Company receives notices that its products or manufacturing processes may be infringing the patent or other intellectual property rights of
others, notices of stockholder litigation or other lawsuits or claims against the Company. The Company periodically assesses each matter in order to determine if a
contingent liability in accordance with ASC No. 450, Contingencies ("ASC 450") should be recorded. In making this determination, management may, depending
on the nature of the matter, consult with internal and external legal counsel and technical experts. The Company expenses legal fees associated with consultations
and defense of lawsuits as incurred. Based on the information obtained, combined with management's judgment regarding all of the facts and circumstances of
each matter, the Company determines whether a contingent loss is probable and whether the amount of such loss can be estimated. Should a loss be probable and
estimable, the Company records a contingent loss in accordance with ASC 450. In determining the amount of a contingent loss, the Company takes into
consideration advice
47
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
received from experts in the specific matter, current status of legal proceedings, settlement negotiations which may be ongoing, prior case history and other factors.
Should the judgments and estimates made by management be incorrect, the Company may need to record additional contingent losses that could materially
adversely impact its results of operations. Alternatively, if the judgments and estimates made by management are incorrect and a particular contingent loss does not
occur, the contingent loss recorded would be reversed, thereby favorably impacting the Company's results of operations.
Pursuant to the Company's charter documents and separate written indemnification agreements, the Company has certain indemnification obligations to its current
officers and directors, as well as certain former officers and directors. The indemnification agreements provide, among other things, that the Company will
indemnify each of its directors and officers, under the circumstances and to the extent provided therein, for expenses, damages, judgments, fines, and settlements
each may be required to pay in actions or proceedings to which he or she may be made a party by reason of his or her position or positions as a director, officer or
other agent of the Company, and otherwise to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and the Company’s bylaws.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Due to the Company's credit evaluation and collection process, bad debt expenses have not been significant. Credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited
because a large number of geographically diverse customers make up the Company's customer base, thus spreading the credit risk. The Company derived
approximately 52% of its fiscal year 2020 revenue from sales made through distributors which includes distribution sales to catalog distributors. The Company's
primary distributor is Avnet Electronics (“Avnet”). Avnet, like the Company's other distributors, is not an end customer, but rather serves as a channel of sale to
many end users of the Company's products. Avnet accounted for 22%, 22% and 25% of revenues in fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and 28% and
21% of accounts receivable as of June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively. Sales (through direct sales and distributors) to Samsung, the Company's largest
single end customer in 2019 and 2018, accounted for 10% of net revenues in fiscal years 2019 and 2018, and 4% and 6% of accounts receivable as of June 27,
2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively. No other customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company's revenues in the fiscal years 2020, 2019, and 2018. One
customer, WT Microelectronics, accounted for 22% and 11% of accounts receivable as of June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019, respectively. No other customer
accounted for 10% or more of the Company's accounts receivable as of June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019.
The Company maintains cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments with various high credit quality financial institutions, limits the amount of credit
exposure to any one financial institution or instrument, and is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by these institutions to the extent of amounts recorded at
the balance sheet date.
Reclassification
Certain items in prior financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
(i) New Accounting Update Recently Adopted
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02 (ASU 2016-02), Leases (Topic 842). Topic
842 states that lessees will recognize a lease liability for the commitment to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the underlying asset, for the duration
of the lease. The FASB also issued ASU 2018-10 and ASU 2018-11 which provide improvements to ASU 2016-02 and an additional transition method option,
respectively. This transition method allows companies to apply the new lease accounting standard on adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment
to the opening balance of retained earnings. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.
The Company adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective method and electing the optional transition method practical expedient. Under the
optional transition method, the Company recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the consolidated balance sheet and did not adjust comparative prior period
information.
The Company elected multiple practical expedients permitted:
•
•
•
the hindsight practical expedient, in which the Company elected to use hindsight up until the effective date in determining the lease term and assessing
impairment of right-of-use assets;
the practical expedient package that allows the Company to carry forward its determination of whether a lease exists, the classification of a lease, and
whether initial direct lease costs exist for purposes of transition to the new standard; and
the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components.
48
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company also elected an accounting policy in which it will not apply the recognition requirements to leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.
Effective June 30, 2019, the first day of adoption, the Company recognized $61.0 million of operating lease right-of-use assets and $65.2 million of operating lease
liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. The difference of $4.2 million was primarily due to deferred rent, partially offset by prepaid rent for leases that
existed as of the date of adoption, which decreased the opening balance of ROU assets.
(ii) Recent Accounting Update Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13) Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of
Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU
2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate
credit loss estimates. It also eliminates the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be
recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These changes will result in earlier
recognition of credit losses. We will adopt ASU 2016-13 beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. The effect on our consolidated financial statements and
related disclosures is not expected to be material.

The FASB established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires an entity to
maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Three levels of inputs that may be used to measure
fair value are as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
The Company's Level 1 assets consist of money market funds.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for
identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for
substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
50
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities consist of corporate debt securities, certificates of deposit, and foreign currency forward contracts that are valued
using quoted market prices or are determined using a yield curve model based on current market rates.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company's Level 3 assets and liabilities consist of contingent consideration liabilities related to acquisitions.

On June 15, 2017, the Company completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 3.45% senior unsecured and
unsubordinated notes due in June 2027 (“2027 Notes”), with an effective interest rate of 3.5%. Interest on the 2027 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on
June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2017. The net proceeds of this offering were approximately $495.2 million, after issuing at
a discount and deducting paid expenses.
On November 21, 2013, the Company completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.5% coupon senior unsecured
and unsubordinated notes due in November 2018 (“2018 Notes”), with an effective interest rate of 2.6%. Interest on the 2018 Notes is payable semi-annually in
arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2014. The net proceeds of this offering were approximately $494.5 million, after
issuing at a discount and deducting paid expenses. In November of 2018, the Company repaid the entire principal and any outstanding interest related to these
outstanding notes.
On March 18, 2013, the Company completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's 3.375% senior unsecured and
unsubordinated notes due in March 2023 (“2023 Notes”), with an effective interest rate of 3.5%. Interest on the 2023 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on
March 15 and September 15 of each year. The net proceeds of this offering were approximately $490.0 million, after issuing at a discount and deducting paid
expenses.
The debt indentures that govern the 2027 and the 2023 Notes include covenants that limit the Company's ability to grant liens on its facilities and to enter into sale
and leaseback transactions, which could limit the Company's ability to secure additional debt funding in the future. In circumstances involving a change of control
of the Company followed by a downgrade of the rating of the 2027 Notes or the 2023 Notes, the Company would be required to make an offer to repurchase the
affected notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The Company accounts for all the notes above based on their amortized cost. The discount and expenses are being amortized to Interest and other income
(expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income over the life of the notes. The interest expense

is recorded in Interest and other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Amortized discount and expenses, as well as interest expense
associated with the notes was $35.6 million, $41.4 million and $49.5 million during the years ended June 27, 2020, June 29, 2019, and June 30, 2018, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the Company's outstanding debt obligations was approximately $1.1 billion as of June 27, 2020. The estimated fair value of the debt is
based primarily on observable market inputs and is a Level 2 measurement.
The Company recorded interest expense of $38.0 million, $43.5 million, and $50.2 million during the fiscal years ended June 27, 2020, June 29, 2019, and June 30,
2018, respectively.
Credit facilities
In January 2019, the Company terminated its $350 million revolving credit facility with certain institutional lenders. As of June 27, 2020, the Company does not
have a credit facility in place.
Other financial instruments
For the balance of the Company's financial instruments, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts
approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
NOTE 7: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
At June 27, 2020, the Company had one stock incentive plan, the Company's 1996 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1996 Plan”) and one employee stock purchase plan,
the 2008 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2008 ESPP”). The 1996 Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors to provide the grant of incentive stock options,
non-statutory stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and market stock units (“MSUs”) to employees, directors, and consultants.
Pursuant to the 1996 Plan, the exercise price for incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options is determined to be the fair market value of the underlying
shares on the date of grant. Options typically vest ratably over a four-year period measured from the date of grant. Options generally expire no later than seven
years after the date of grant, subject to earlier termination upon an optionee's cessation of employment or service.
RSUs granted to employees typically vest ratably over a four-year period and are converted into shares of the Company's common stock upon vesting, subject to
the employee's continued service to the Company over that period. RSUs granted from September 2017 to July 2020 will continue to vest post-employment at the
Company for certain individuals satisfying specific eligibility requirements.
MSUs granted to employees typically vest over a four-year cliff period and are converted into shares of the Company's common stock upon vesting, subject to the
employee's continued service to the Company over that period. The number of shares that are released at the end of the performance period can range from zero to
a maximum cap depending on the Company's performance. MSUs granted in September 2017, September 2018, and September 2019 will continue to vest post-
employment at the Company for certain individuals satisfying specific eligibility requirements.

business day preceding the fiscal year end, multiplied by the number of options outstanding, exercisable or vested and expected to vest as of June 27, 2020.
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018 were $20.1 million, $27.5 million and $30.7 million, respectively.
Restricted Stock Units and Other Awards
The fair value of RSUs and other awards under the Company’s 1996 Plan is estimated using the value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant,
reduced by the present value of dividends expected to be paid on the Company’s common stock prior to vesting. The Company also estimates forfeitures at the
time of grant and makes revisions to forfeitures on a quarterly basis.
The weighted average fair value of RSUs and other awards granted was $49.57, $53.97 and $44.95 per share for fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

preceding the fiscal year end, multiplied by the number of RSUs and other awards outstanding, or expected to vest as of June 27, 2020.
The Company withheld shares totaling $35.9 million in value as a result of employee withholding taxes based on the value of the RSUs on their vesting date for the
fiscal year ended June 27, 2020. The total payments for the employees' tax obligations to the taxing authorities are reflected as financing activities within the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
As of June 27, 2020, there was $148.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to 4.6 million unvested RSUs and other awards, which is expected to be
recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.6 years.
Market Stock Units
The Company grants MSUs to senior members of management in lieu of granting stock options. For MSUs granted prior to September 2017, the performance
metrics of this program are based on relative performance of the Company’s stock price as compared to the Semiconductor Exchange Traded Fund index SPDR
S&P (the “XSD”). For MSUs granted in September 2017, September 2018, and September 2019, the performance metrics for this program are based on the total
shareholder return ("TSR") of the Company relative to the TSR of the other companies included in the XSD. The fair value of MSUs is estimated using a Monte
Carlo simulation model on the date of grant. The Company also estimates forfeitures at the time of grant and makes revisions to forfeitures on a quarterly basis.
Compensation expense is recognized based on the initial valuation and is not subsequently adjusted as a result of the Company’s performance relative to that of the
XSD or the TSR of the companies included in the XSD, as applicable. Vesting for MSUs is contingent upon both service and market conditions and has a four-year
vesting cliff period. MSUs granted in September 2017, September 2018, and September 2019 vest based upon annual performance and are subject to continued
service through the end of the four-year period but will continue to vest post-employment at the Company for certain individuals satisfying specific eligibility
requirements. Pursuant to the terms of the ADI Merger Agreement, the Company will grant RSUs in lieu of MSUs (or restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) in lieu of
MSUs for any potential “disqualified individuals” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, which RSAs will not be eligible for
dividends or dividend equivalent rights) from the date of the ADI Merger Agreement through the date that the transaction closes.
The weighted-average fair value of MSUs granted was $54.70, $75.48 and $51.03 per share for fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

NOTE 8: EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. For purposes of computing
basic earnings per share, the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock excludes unvested RSUs and other awards as well as MSUs. Diluted
earnings per share incorporates the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options, assumed release of unvested RSUs and other awards as
well as MSUs, and assumed issuance of common stock under the 2008 ESPP using the treasury stock method.

The Company monitors the recoverability of goodwill recorded in connection with acquisitions, by reporting unit, annually, or more often if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
In fiscal years 2020 and 2019, the Company elected to perform a qualitative analysis to assess impairment of goodwill rather than to perform the quantitative
goodwill impairment test. The key qualitative factors considered in the assessment included the change in the industry and competitive environment, market
capitalization, and overall financial performance. Based on the results of this qualitative analysis, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the
fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. The Company concluded that goodwill was not impaired in fiscal years 2020 and 2019.
Activity and goodwill balances for the fiscal years ended June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019 were as follows:

On May 11, 2020, the Company acquired a privately-held corporation specializing in motor and motion control technology. The aggregate purchase price of $87.0
million included cash consideration of $72.8 million and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $14.2 million. The contingent consideration is
payable if the acquired company achieves certain financial milestones for the annual periods ending December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021. The acquired
assets included $2.7 million of cash, $35.1 million of developed technology, $12.6 million of other intangible assets, and $6.3 million of other net assets. In
connection with this acquisition, the Company also recorded $30.3 million of goodwill, which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
There were no material acquisitions completed during the fiscal year 2019.

NOTE 15: COMMON STOCK REPURCHASES
On July 20, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $1.0 billion of the Company's common stock. The stock repurchase
authorization did not have an expiration date and the pace of repurchase activity depended on factors such as current stock price, levels of cash generation from
operations, cash requirements, and other factors. The prior authorization by the Company’s Board of Directors for repurchase of common stock was cancelled and
superseded by this repurchase authorization.
On October 30, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $1.5 billion of the Company’s common stock. The stock
repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and the pace of repurchase activity will depend on factors such as current stock price, levels of cash
generation from operations, cash requirements, and other factors. The prior authorization by the Company’s Board of Directors for repurchase of common stock
was cancelled and superseded by this repurchase authorization.
During fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, the Company repurchased approximately 7.9 million, 9.8 million and 7.5 million shares of its common stock for $440.8
million, $539.2 million and $408.0 million, respectively. As of June 27, 2020, the Company had a remaining authorization of $0.7 billion for future share
repurchases. The Company suspended its repurchase program on July 13, 2020, the date the Company announced its planned merger with ADI.

On December 22, 2017 legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”), was enacted. The Act reduced the federal statutory tax rate
from 35.0% to 21.0%, effective January 1, 2018, which results in federal statutory tax rates for the Company of 21.0%, 21.0% and 28.1% (average of a 35.0% rate
for the first half of fiscal year 2018 and a 21.0% rate for the second half of fiscal year 2018) for fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In fiscal year 2018
the Company recorded a $13.7 million charge to remeasure deferred taxes as of the enactment date of the Act to reflect the federal statutory rate reduction.
The Act included a one-time tax on accumulated unremitted earnings of our foreign subsidiaries (“Transition Tax”). SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118
allowed the use of provisional amounts (reasonable estimates) if accounting for the income tax effects of the Act was not completed. Provisional amounts must be
adjusted within a one-year measurement period from the enactment date of the Act. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, the Company recorded a $236.9
million provisional Transition Tax charge. During the measurement period the Company gathered information and analyzed available guidance and in the second
quarter of fiscal year 2019 recorded a $22.1 million Transition Tax charge, which increased the Company’s fiscal year 2019 tax rate by 2.9%. As of the end of the
second quarter of fiscal year 2019 accounting for income tax effects of the Act was completed.
The Act included Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) provisions, which first impact the Company in fiscal year 2019. The GILTI provisions
effectively subject income earned by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries to current U.S. tax at a rate of 10.5%, less foreign tax credits. The Company has elected to
treat tax generated by the GILTI provisions as a period expense.
In fiscal year 2019, the Company reversed $221.5 million of uncertain tax position reserves and $30.1 million of related interest reserves, net of federal and state
benefits, primarily due to the fiscal fourth quarter settlement of an audit of the Company’s fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year 2011 federal corporate income tax
returns, which also settled intercompany buy-in license payment issues for fiscal years 2012 through 2019. $140.7 million of fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year
2018 advance tax payments made in June 2018 were applied to additional federal tax liabilities generated by the settlement. The reversal of uncertain tax position
reserves for intercompany transfer pricing issues increased accumulated unremitted foreign earnings, which resulted in an additional Transition Tax charge of
$47.7 million in the fiscal fourth quarter.
In fiscal year 2020, the Company reversed $40.5 million of uncertain tax position reserves and $10.7 million of related interest reserves, net of federal and state
benefits, primarily due to the fiscal fourth quarter settlement of an audit of the Company’s fiscal year 2012 through fiscal year 2014 federal corporate income tax
returns. The reversal of uncertain tax position reserves for intercompany transfer pricing issues increased accumulated unremitted foreign earnings, which resulted
in an additional Transition Tax charge of $6.5 million in the fiscal fourth quarter.
On June 18, 2019, the U.S. Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service released temporary regulations under Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 245A
(“Section 245A”), as enacted by the Act, and IRC Section 954(c)(6) (the “Temporary Regulations”), which apply retroactively to intercompany dividends
occurring after December 31, 2017. The Temporary Regulations limit the applicability of the foreign personal holding company income (“FPHCI”) look-through
exception for certain intercompany dividends received by a controlled foreign corporation. Before application of the retroactive intercompany Temporary
Regulations, the Company benefited in fiscal years 2018 and 2019 from the FPHCI look-through exception. The Company has analyzed the
66
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
relevant Temporary Regulations and concluded that they were not validly issued. Therefore, the Company has not accounted for the effects of the retroactive
Temporary Regulations in its results of operations for fiscal year 2019 or fiscal year 2020. The Company believes it has strong arguments in favor of its position
and that it has met the more likely than not recognition threshold that its position will be sustained. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position,
however, due to the uncertainty involved in challenging the validity of regulations as well as a potential litigation process, there can be no assurance that the
relevant Temporary Regulations will be invalidated, modified or that a court of law will rule in favor of the Company. An unfavorable resolution of this issue could
have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.
As of June 27, 2020, the Company's foreign subsidiaries have accumulated undistributed earnings of approximately $306.2 million that are intended to be
indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S. No deferred tax liability has been recognized for the repatriation of these earnings. At June 27, 2020, the unrecognized
deferred tax liability on these earnings was $27.2 million.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and
the amounts used for income tax purposes. The components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities were as follows:
Deferred tax assets:
Accrued compensation
Stock-based compensation
Net operating loss carryovers
Tax credit carryovers
Other reserves and accruals not currently deductible for tax purposes
Other
Total deferred tax assets
Deferred tax liabilities:

The valuation allowance as of June 27, 2020 and June 29, 2019 primarily relates to certain state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards and certain state tax
credit carryforwards. The valuation allowance increased by $4.0 million in fiscal year 2020.
As of June 27, 2020, the Company has $15.0 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards expiring at various dates between fiscal years 2022 and 2033,
$39.4 million of state net operating loss carryforwards expiring at various dates through fiscal year 2033, $140.2 million of foreign net operating loss carryforwards
with no expiration date, $115.4 million of state tax credit carryforwards with no expiration date, and $6.6 million of state tax credit carryforwards expiring at
various dates through fiscal year 2035.
The Company classifies unrecognized tax benefits as (i) a current liability to the extent that payment is anticipated within one year; (ii) a non-current liability to the
extent that payment is not anticipated within one year; or (iii) a reduction to deferred tax assets to the extent that the unrecognized tax benefit relates to deferred tax
assets such as operating loss or tax credit carryforwards or to the extent that operating loss or tax credit carryforwards would be able to offset the additional tax
liability generated by unrecognized tax benefits.

Prior year tax position activity in fiscal year 2019 includes the reversal of $221.5 million of tax reserves, primarily due to the settlement of an audit of the
Company’s fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year 2011 federal corporate income tax returns, which also settled intercompany buy-in license payment issues for fiscal
year 2012 through fiscal year 2019. Fiscal year 2019 settlements include $140.7 million of fiscal year 2009 through fiscal year 2018 advance tax payments made in
June 2018 that were applied to additional federal tax liabilities generated by the federal tax audit settlement. Prior year tax position activity in fiscal year 2020
includes the reversal of $40.5 million of tax reserves, primarily due to the settlement of an audit of the Company’s fiscal year 2012 through fiscal year 2014 federal
corporate income tax returns.
The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits as of June 27, 2020 that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate is $122.7 million. $51.6 million of
unrecognized tax benefits would be offset by an increase in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and thus would not affect the effective tax rate.
The Company does not expect its unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly within the next 12 months.
The Company reports interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The gross amount, before the federal and
state benefit, of interest and penalties recognized in income tax expense during the fiscal years ended June 27, 2020, June 29, 2019, and June 30, 2018 was $(5.9)
million, $(30.2) million and $27.8 million, respectively, and the total amount of interest and penalties accrued as of June 27, 2020, June 29, 2019, and June 30,
2018 was $24.6 million, $31.7 million, and $61.9 million, respectively.
The Company’s federal corporate income tax returns are audited on a recurring basis by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). In fiscal year 2020, the IRS
commenced an audit of the Company’s federal corporate income tax returns for fiscal years 2015 through 2017, which is ongoing.

NOTE 20: SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Merger with Analog Devices
On July 13, 2020, the Company announced that it had entered into the ADI Merger Agreement with Analog Devices, and Magneto Corp., a wholly owned
subsidiary of Analog Devices (“Acquisition Sub”), under which, subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permissible) waiver of the conditions set forth therein,
Acquisition Sub will merge with and into the Company, and the Company will survive the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Analog Devices (the “ADI
Merger”). Under the terms of the ADI Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the ADI Merger (the “Effective Time”), each share of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Company Common Stock”), issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than treasury shares
and any shares of Company Common Stock held by Analog Devices or Acquisition Sub) will be converted into the right to receive 0.6300 of a fully paid and non-
assessable share of common stock, par value $0.16 2/3 per share, of Analog Devices (with cash being paid (without interest and less applicable withholding taxes)
in lieu of any fraction of a share of Analog Devices common stock). Analog Devices shareholders will continue to own their existing Analog Devices shares, and
the combined company will be named Analog Devices.
The ADI Merger has been approved by both the Company’s Board of Directors and the Board of Directors of Analog Devices, and the completion of the ADI
Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others, the required approvals of Maxim Integrated’s stockholders, the approval of ADI’s
shareholders and the receipt of various regulatory approvals. Subject to the satisfaction or (to the extent permissible) waiver of such conditions, the transaction is
expected to close in the summer of 2021. For additional information on the ADI Merger Agreement and the ADI Merger, please refer to the Company’s Current
Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 13, 2020. The Company cannot guarantee that the ADI Merger will be completed
on a timely basis or at all or that, if completed, it will be completed on the terms set forth in the ADI Merger Agreement.
A cash dividend of $0.48 per share will be paid on September 11, 2020, to Maxim Integrated stockholders of record on August 27, 2020. The Company will neither
declare nor pay a dividend in any of the next succeeding four fiscal quarters and has suspended its open market stock repurchase program as the ADI Merger
Agreement restricts the Company's ability to declare dividends and repurchase shares of the Company's common stock.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Maxim Integrated Products, Inc.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 27, 2020 and
June 29, 2019, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended June 27, 2020, including the related notes and schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts for each of the three years in the period ended
June 27, 2020 listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the
Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 27, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 27,
2020 and June 29, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 27, 2020 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal
control over financial reporting as of June 27, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Change in Accounting Principle
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for leases in fiscal year 2020.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for
its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal
control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (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 audits to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal
control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial
reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial
reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions
and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
73
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with
the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or
required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii)
involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the
consolidated 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.
Write-down for Excess or Obsolete Inventories
As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the total inventories balance was $259.6 million as of June 27, 2020. Inventories are stated at the
lower of (i) standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in-first-out basis, or (ii) net realizable value. A write-down to net realizable value is recorded if
excess quantities or obsolescence is identified. At each reporting period, management assesses the Company’s ending inventories for excess quantities and
obsolescence based on the projected sales outlook. This assessment, which requires significant judgment by management, includes analysis of projections of future
demand. Because of the cyclical nature of the market, inventory levels, obsolescence of technology, and product life cycles, management generally writes down
inventories to net realizable value based on forecasted product demand. As disclosed by management, the Company had net inventory write-downs of $16.5
million during fiscal year 2020.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the write-down of excess or obsolete inventories is a critical audit matter
are the significant amount of judgment by management in developing the assumptions of the forecasted product demand, which in turn led to significant auditor
judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing audit procedures and evaluating audit evidence relating to the forecasted product demand.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial
statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s write-down for excess or obsolete inventories, including
controls over the development of assumptions related to forecasted product demand. The procedures also included, among others, testing management’s process
for developing the estimate of the write-down for excess or obsolete inventories, testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the estimate, and
evaluating management’s assumptions of forecasted product demand. Evaluating management’s demand forecast for reasonableness involved considering
historical sales by product, comparing prior period estimates to actual results of the same period, and determining whether the demand forecast used was consistent
with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
1996 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.28
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to its 1996 Stock Incentive Plan
(the “Plan”) has granted to Grantee an award of restricted stock units (the “Restricted Stock Units”) with the terms set forth in a
document delivered separately to Grantee (the “Grant Notice”). The Restricted Stock Units are subject to all of the terms and
conditions in the Grant Notice, this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and any appendix for Grantee’s country1 (the “Appendix,” and
together with the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and the Grant Notice, the “Agreement”) and the Plan. Unless otherwise defined
herein, capitalized terms shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.
1.
Company’s Obligation to Pay. Each Restricted Stock Unit represents a value equal to the Fair Market Value of a
Share on the date it becomes vested. Unless and until the Restricted Stock Units will have vested in the manner set forth in Sections
2, 4 and 5, Grantee will have no right to payment of any such Restricted Stock Units. Prior to actual payment of any vested
Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Unit will represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only
from the general assets of the Company.
2. Vesting Schedule. Subject to Sections 3, 4 and 5, the Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Agreement will vest in
Grantee according to the vesting schedule set forth on the Grant Notice, subject to Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee,
Director or Consultant through each such date. Vesting may be suspended during any unpaid leave of absence, unless continued
vesting is required by Applicable Laws or unless continued vesting is approved by the Company in writing.
3. Forfeiture upon Termination of Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant. Subject to Sections 4 and 5, if
Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant ceases for any or no reason, the then-unvested Restricted Stock
Units awarded by this Agreement will thereupon be forfeited at no cost to the Company and Grantee will have no further rights
thereunder.
For purposes of these Restricted Stock Units, Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant
will be considered terminated (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not such termination is later found to be
invalid or in breach of Applicable Laws or the terms of Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any) effective as of the date
that Grantee is no longer actively providing services to the Company, Parent or any Subsidiary and will not be extended by any
notice period (e.g., Grantee’s period of active service would not include
1 For the purposes of this Agreement, the phrase “Grantee’s country” refers to any country whose laws and regulations apply to Grantee during the relevant time
period, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Grantee should
1
speak with his or her personal legal and tax advisor for more information as to which countries this phrase may include, based on Grantee’s personal
circumstances.
any contractual notice period, statutory notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment
laws in the jurisdiction where Grantee is rendering services or the terms of Grantee’s employment or service agreement, if any).
Subject to Section 5, below, actively providing services during only a portion of the vesting period prior to a vesting date shall not
entitle Grantee to vest in a pro-rata portion of the unvested Restricted Stock Units that would have vested as of such vesting date, nor
will it entitle Grantee to any compensation for the lost vesting. The Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine
when Grantee is no longer actively providing services for purposes of these Restricted Stock Units (including whether Grantee may
still be considered to be actively providing services while on leave of absence).
4. Death. If Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant is terminated due to Grantee’s death, then
the Restricted Stock Units will fully vest immediately as of the date of Grantee’s death.
5. Change in Control. If the Restricted Stock Units are not assumed, converted, replaced or substituted with an equivalent
award by a successor company (or a parent or subsidiary thereof) in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the
Company’s Change in Control Employee Severance Plan for U.S. Based Employees or the Company’s Change in Control Employee
Severance Plan for Non-U.S. Based Employees (collectively, the “CIC Plan”)), then all Restricted Stock Units will fully vest
immediately before the Change in Control. If the Restricted Stock Units are assumed, converted, replaced or substituted with an
equivalent award by a successor company (or parent or subsidiary thereof) in connection with a Change in Control (an “Equivalent
Award”), the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units shall be accelerated upon a termination of employment following a Change in
Control which qualifies Grantee for severance benefits under the CIC Plan, solely to the extent equity award acceleration is provided
in connection with a qualifying termination pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the CIC Plan.
6. Payment after Vesting. Any Restricted Stock Units that vest in accordance with Sections 2, 4 and 5 will be paid to
Grantee (or in the event of Grantee’s death, to his or her legal heirs) in whole Shares, subject to Grantee satisfying any withholding
obligations for Tax-Related Items as set forth in Section 8 within sixty (60) days following the date on which the Restricted Stock
Units vest.
7. Payments after Death. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Grantee under this Agreement will, if Grantee is then
deceased, be made to Grantee’s legal heirs. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status
as legal heir, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any laws or
regulations pertaining to said transfer.
8. Responsibility for Taxes. Grantee acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company and/or the Parent or
Subsidiary employing Grantee or for which Grantee is otherwise providing services (the “Service Recipient”), the ultimate liability
for any and all income
2
tax (including U.S. and non-U.S. federal, state, and/or local taxes), social insurance, fringe benefit tax, payroll tax, payment on
account or other tax-related items related to Grantee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Grantee or deemed by the
Company or the Service Recipient in their reasonable discretion to be an appropriate charge to Grantee even if legally applicable to
the Company or Service Recipient (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains Grantee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount, if any,
actually withheld by the Company or Service Recipient. Grantee further acknowledges that the Company and/or the Service
Recipient (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any
aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the vesting of Restricted Stock Units, the
settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired at settlement and the receipt of any dividends;
and (ii) do not commit and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to
reduce or eliminate Grantee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Grantee is subject to
Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Grantee acknowledges that the Company and/or the Service Recipient (or former
employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to
Grantee, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) have been made by Grantee with respect to
the payment of all Tax-Related Items which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to the Restricted Stock Units.
The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may require Grantee to
satisfy any withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items, in whole or in part, by one or more of the following (without limitation):
(a) paying cash, (b) withholding from Grantee’s wages, salary or other cash compensation payable to Grantee by the Company, the
Service Recipient or any other Parent or Subsidiary, (c) selling a sufficient number of such Shares otherwise deliverable to Grantee
(on Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent) through such means as the Company may determine in
its sole discretion (whether through a broker or otherwise), or (d) withholding otherwise deliverable Shares, provided, however, that
if Grantee is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then any withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items
will be satisfied only by one or a combination of methods (a) through (c) above.
The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates
or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum rates applicable in Grantee’s jurisdiction(s). In the event of over-
withholding, Grantee may receive a refund of any over-withheld amount (with no entitlement to the Share equivalent), or if not
refunded, Grantee may seek a refund from the applicable tax authorities. In the event of under-withholding, Grantee may be required
to pay additional Tax-Related Items directly to the applicable tax authorities or to the Company and/or Service Recipient. If the
obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding in Shares, Grantee is deemed to have been issued the full number of
Shares subject to the vested Restricted Stock Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares are held back solely for the purpose
of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units.
3
Notwithstanding anything in this section to the contrary, to avoid a prohibited distribution under Section 409A of the
Code, if Shares underlying the Restricted Stock Units will be withheld (or sold on Grantee’s behalf) to satisfy any withholding
obligation for Tax-Related Items arising prior to the date of settlement of the Restricted Stock Units for any portion of the Restricted
Stock Units that is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, the number of Shares
withheld (or sold on Grantee’s behalf) shall not exceed the number of Shares that equals the liability for the Tax-Related Items.
If Grantee fails to make satisfactory arrangements for the payment of any Tax-Related Items hereunder, Grantee will
permanently forfeit such Shares and the Shares will be returned to the Company at no cost to the Company.
9. Acknowledgment of Nature of Plan and Restricted Stock Units. In accepting the Award, Grantee understands,
acknowledges and agrees that:
(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended,
suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, to the extent permitted by the Plan;
(b) the Award of Restricted Stock Units is exceptional, voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual
or other right to receive future Awards of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units even if Restricted
Stock Units have been awarded in the past;
(c) all decisions with respect to future Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;
(d) Grantee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;
(e) Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of
same, are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including, without limitation, calculating any
severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, end-of-service payments, holiday pay, bonuses, long-service awards,
leave-related payments, holiday top-up, variable compensation, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar mandatory
payments;
(f) the Award of Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units, this Agreement, the
transactions contemplated hereunder and the vesting schedule set forth herein shall not create a right of Grantee’s Continuous Status
as an Employee, Director or Consultant for the vesting period, for any period, or at all, or be interpreted as forming or amending an
employment or service contract with the Company, the Service Recipient or any other Parent or Subsidiary, and shall not interfere
with Grantee’s right or the right of the Company, Service Recipient or any other Parent or Subsidiary to terminate Grantee’s
Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant (if any) at any time;
4
(g) unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Company, the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to
Restricted Stock Units, and the income from and value of same, are not granted as consideration for, or in connection with, the
service Grantee may provide as a director of a Parent or Subsidiary;
(h) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown, indeterminable and cannot be predicted with certainty;
(i) no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award, and no claim or
entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from any diminution in value of the Award of Restricted Stock Units or Shares
received upon vesting of Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee, Director
or Consultant (regardless of the reason for the termination and whether or not such termination is found to be invalid or in breach of
employment laws in the jurisdiction where Grantee is rendering services or the terms of Grantee’s employment or service agreement,
if any); and
(j) neither the Company, the Service Recipient, nor any other Parent or Subsidiary shall be liable for any foreign
exchange rate fluctuations between Grantee’s local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Restricted
Stock Units or of any amounts due to Grantee pursuant to the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or the subsequent sale of any
Shares acquired upon settlement.
10. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company
making any recommendations regarding participation in the Plan, or Grantee’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. Grantee
should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding participation in the Plan before taking any action
related to the Plan.
11. Rights as Stockholder. Neither Grantee nor any person claiming under or through Grantee will have any of the rights or
privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until certificates representing
such Shares have been issued, recorded on the records of the Company or its transfer agents or registrars, and delivered to Grantee.
12. Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Agreement will be addressed to the Company,
in care of Stock Administration at Maxim Integrated Products, Inc., 160 Rio Robles Drive, San Jose, CA 95134, United States of
America, with a copy to the Corporate Secretary at 160 Rio Robles Drive, San Jose, CA 95134, United States of America, or at such
other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing. Any notices provided for in this Agreement or the Plan shall be
given in writing (including electronic mail) and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by
the Company to Grantee, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to Grantee at the address
specified above or at such other address as Grantee hereafter designate by written notice to the Company.
13. Grant is Not Transferable. Except to the limited extent provided in Section 7, this grant and the rights and privileges
conferred hereby will not be transferred, assigned, pledged or
5
hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of law or otherwise) and will not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or
similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege
conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights and
privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.
14. Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this Agreement will be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.
15. Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company determines, in its discretion, that the listing,
registration or qualification of the Shares upon any securities exchange or under any U.S. or non-U.S. state, federal, local or other
Applicable Laws, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the
issuance of Shares to Grantee (or Grantee’s legal heirs), such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration,
qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company
is under no obligation to register or qualify the Shares with any state or foreign securities commission or to seek approval or
clearance from any governmental authority for the issuance or sale of the Shares. Further, the Company shall have unilateral
authority to amend the Agreement without Grantee’s consent to the extent necessary to comply with securities or other laws
applicable to issuance of Shares.
16. Plan Governs. This Agreement is subject to all terms and provisions of the Plan. In the event of a conflict between one
or more provisions of this Agreement and one or more provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will govern.
17. Administrator Authority. The Administrator will have the power to interpret the Plan and this Agreement and to adopt
such rules for the administration, interpretation and application of the Plan as are consistent therewith and to interpret or revoke any
such rules (including, but not limited to, the determination of whether or not any Restricted Stock Units have vested). All actions
taken and all interpretations and determinations made by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Grantee, the
Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or
interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Agreement.
18. Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related
to Restricted Stock Units awarded under the Plan or future Restricted Stock Units that may be awarded under the Plan by electronic
means or request Grantee’s consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means. Grantee hereby consents to receive such
documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an online or electronic system established and
maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.
19. Section 409A. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, for Grantees who are U.S. taxpayers,
it is intended that the vesting and the payments of Restricted Stock Units shall qualify for exemption from or comply with the
application of Section 409A of the Code, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to so comply. The Company reserves the
6
right (but shall not be obligated), to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend
or modify this Agreement as may be necessary to ensure that all vesting and/or payments provided under this Agreement are made in
a manner that qualifies for exemption from or complies with Section 409A of the Code or to mitigate any additional tax, interest
and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A of Code if compliance is not practical;
provided, however, that the Company makes no representation that the vesting or payments of Restricted Stock Units provided under
this Agreement will be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code, makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A
of the Code from applying to the vesting and/or payment of Restricted Stock Units provided under this Agreement and does not
guarantee that the Restricted Stock Units or that the vesting or payment of the Restricted Stock Units will not be subject to taxes,
interest and penalties or any other adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code. Nothing in this Agreement shall
provide a basis for any person to take any action against the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary based on matters covered by
Section 409A of the Code, including the tax treatment of any amounts paid under this Agreement.
20. Captions. Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or
construction of this Agreement.
21. Language. Grantee acknowledges and represents that he or she is proficient in the English language or has consulted
with an advisor who is sufficiently proficient in English as to allow Grantee to understand the terms of this Agreement and any other
documents related to the Plan. If Grantee has received this Agreement or any other document related to the Plan translated into a
language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different from the English version, the English version
will control.
22. Appendix. Notwithstanding any provisions in the Grant Notice or this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, the Restricted
Stock Units shall be subject to any additional terms and conditions for Grantee’s country attached hereto in the Appendix. Moreover,
if Grantee transfers residence and/or employment to, or is considered a citizen or resident for local law purposes of, one of the
countries included in the Appendix, the additional terms and conditions for such country will apply to Grantee to the extent the
Administrator determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative
reasons. The Appendix constitutes part of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
23. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Grantee’s
participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company
determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Grantee to sign any additional agreements
or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing.
24. Agreement Severable. In the event that any provision in this Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such
provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining
provisions of this Agreement.
7
25. Insider Trading Restrictions/Market Abuse Laws. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee may be subject to insider trading
restrictions and/or market abuse laws in applicable jurisdictions, including the United States and, if different, Grantee’s country,
Grantee’s broker’s country and/or the country where Shares are listed, which may affect his or her ability to directly or indirectly, for
him- or herself or for a third party, accept or otherwise acquire or sell, attempt to sell or otherwise dispose of, Shares or rights to
Shares (e.g., Restricted Stock Units) under the Plan during such times as Grantee is considered to have “inside information”
regarding the Company (as defined by the laws or regulations in the applicable jurisdiction) or the trade in Shares or the trade in
rights to Shares under the Plan. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders
Grantee places before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, Grantee could be prohibited from (1) disclosing the
inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (2) “tipping” third parties or otherwise causing them
to buy or sell Company securities; including “third parties” who are fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or
regulations may be separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider
trading policy. Grantee acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and Grantee is
advised to speak to his or her personal advisor on this matter.
26. Foreign Asset/Account Reporting; Exchange Controls. Grantee acknowledges that Grantee’s country may have certain
foreign asset and/or account reporting requirements and/or exchange controls which may affect Grantee’s ability to acquire or hold
Shares under the Plan or cash received from participating in the Plan (including from any dividends received or sale proceeds arising
from the sale of Shares) in a brokerage or bank account outside Grantee’s country. Grantee may be required to report such accounts,
assets or transactions to the tax or other authorities in his or her country. Grantee also may be required to repatriate sale proceeds or
other funds received as a result of Grantee’s participation in the Plan to his or her country through a designated bank or broker
and/or within a certain time after receipt. Grantee further acknowledges that it is his or her responsibility to be compliant with such
regulations, and Grantee should consult his or her personal legal advisor for any details.
27. Waiver. Grantee acknowledges that a waiver by the Company of breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not
operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by Grantee or any other
grantee.
28. Governing Law/Choice of Venue. This Agreement and the Award of Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall be
governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, U.S.A., without giving effect to the conflict of
law principles thereof. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises directly or indirectly from the relationship of the parties
evidenced by this Award of Restricted Stock Units or this Agreement, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the State of California, U.S.A., and agree that such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of Santa Clara
County, California, U.S.A., or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, U.S.A., and no other
courts, where this Award of Restricted Stock Units is made and/or to be performed.
8
By electronically approving the Award of Restricted Stock Units through the Morgan Stanley website, Grantee agrees to all
of the terms and conditions described in this Agreement (including any Appendix) and in the Plan. If the Award of
Restricted Stock Units has not been expressly approved before the first vesting date, Grantee understands and acknowledges
that he or she will be deemed to have agreed to all of the terms and conditions in this Agreement (including any Appendix)
and in the Plan.

APPENDIX
MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS, INC.
1996 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT
ADDITIONAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Grant Notice, the Restricted Stock
Unit Agreement and the Plan.
Terms and Conditions
This Appendix includes additional terms and conditions that govern the Award granted to Grantee if Grantee works and/or resides in
one of the countries listed herein.
If Grantee is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Grantee is currently working and/or residing, is considered
a resident of another country for local law purposes or transfers employment and/or residency between countries after the Grant
Date, the Company shall, in its sole discretion, determine to what extent the additional terms and conditions included herein will
apply to Grantee under these circumstances.
Notifications
This Appendix also includes information regarding exchange controls and certain other issues of which Grantee should be aware
with respect to Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The information is based on the securities, exchange control and other laws in
effect in the respective countries as of June 2020. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. Grantee should not rely on the
information noted herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of Grantee’s participation in the Plan
because the information may be out of date at the time Grantee acquires Shares or sells Shares acquired under the Plan.
In addition, the information is general in nature and may not apply to Grantee’s particular situation, and the Company is not in a
position to assure Grantee of any particular result. Accordingly, Grantee is advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how
the relevant laws in Grantee’s country may apply to Grantee’s situation.
If Grantee is a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which Grantee is currently working and/or residing, is considered

(a) Data Collection and Usage. The Company and the Service Recipient collect, process and use certain personal
information about Grantee, including, but not limited to, Grantee’s name, home address, telephone number, email address, date
of birth, social insurance number, passport or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or
directorships held in the Company, details of all Restricted Stock Units granted under the Plan or any other entitlement to Shares
or equivalent benefits awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Grantee’s favor (“Data”), for purposes of
implementing, administering and managing Grantee’s participation in the Plan. The legal basis, where required, for the
processing of Data is Grantee’s consent.
(b) Stock Plan Administration Service Providers. The Company transfers Data to Morgan Stanley Smith Barney
LLC and certain of its affiliated companies (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”), an independent service provider, which assists the
Company with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. The Company may select different or additional
service providers in the future and share Data with such other provider(s) serving in a similar manner. Grantee may be asked to
agree on separate terms and data processing practices with Morgan Stanley or any future service providers, with such agreement
being a condition to the ability to participate in the Plan. The legal basis, where required, for the transfer of Data by the
Company to Morgan Stanley or a different provider, as applicable, is Grantee’s consent.
(c) International Data Transfers. The Company and Morgan Stanley are based in the United States. The
Company and Morgan Stanley may transfer Data to additional countries. Grantee’s country or jurisdiction may have different
data privacy laws and protections than the United States or the countries to which the Company and/or Morgan Stanley may
transfer Data. The Company’s legal basis, where required, for the international transfer of Data is Grantee’s consent.
(d) Data Retention. The Company will hold and use Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer
and manage Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under
tax, exchange control, labor and securities laws. This means Data may be retained until after termination of Grantee’s
Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant.
(e) Voluntariness of Plan Participation. Participation in the Plan is voluntary and Grantee is providing any
consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. Grantee understands that he or she may withdraw his or her consent at any time,
with future effect and for any or no
A-2
reason. If Grantee does not consent, or if Grantee later seeks to revoke his or her consent, Grantee’s salary from or employment
or service relationship with the Service Recipient will not be affected. The only consequence of refusing or withdrawing
Grantee’s consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Restricted Stock Units or other Awards under the Plan or
administer or maintain such Awards.
(f) Data Subject Rights. Grantee may have a number of rights under data privacy laws in his or her jurisdiction.
Depending on where Grantee is based, such rights may include the right to (i) request access to or copies of Data the Company
processes, (ii) rectify incorrect Data, (iii) delete Data, (iv) restrict the processing of Data, (v) restrict the portability of Data, (vi)
lodge complaints with competent authorities in Grantee’s jurisdiction, and/or (vii) receive a list with the names and addresses of

Economic Area and the United Kingdom is Harry Marsden (Harry.Marsden@maximintegrated.com).
(b) Purposes and Legal Bases of Processing. The Company processes Data (as defined below) for the purpose of
performing its contractual obligations under this Agreement, granting Restricted Stock Units, implementing, administering and
managing Grantee’s participation in the Plan and facilitating compliance with Applicable Laws. The legal basis for the
processing of Data (as defined below) by the Company and the third-party service providers described below is the necessity of the
data processing for the Company to perform its contractual obligations under this Agreement and for the Company’s legitimate
business interests of managing the Plan and generally administering Awards.

information about Grantee, including, but not limited to, Grantee’s name, home address, telephone number, email address, date

manner. Grantee may be asked to agree on separate terms and data processing practices with Morgan Stanley or any future
service providers, with such agreement being a condition to the ability to participate in the Plan.
(e) International Data Transfers. The Company and Morgan Stanley are based in the United States, which
means that it will be necessary for Data to be transferred to, and processed in, the United States. Grantee’s country or
jurisdiction may have different data privacy laws and protections than the United States. The European Commission has issued
only a limited adequacy finding with respect to the United States that applies only if and to the extent
A-4
companies self-certify and remain self-certified under the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield program. The Company is not currently
registered for this program. The Company provides appropriate safeguards for protecting Data that it receives in the United
States through its adherence to data transfer agreements entered into between the Company and its Subsidiaries within the
EEA/EU, Switzerland and the UK. Grantee may request a copy of the relevant data transfer agreements by contacting the
Company’s designated Data Protection Officer at dataprivacy@maximintegrated.com.
(f) Data Retention. The Company will hold and use Data only as long as is necessary to implement, administer
and manage Grantee’s participation in the Plan, or as required to comply with legal or regulatory obligations, including under

(h) Contractual Requirement. Grantee’s provision of Data and its processing and transfer as described above is a
contractual requirement and a condition to Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. Grantee understands that, as a
consequence of Grantee’s refusing to provide Data, the Company may not be able to allow Grantee to participate in the Plan,
grant Restricted Stock Units to Grantee or administer or maintain such Restricted Stock Units. However, Grantee’s participation
in the Plan and his or her acceptance of this Agreement are purely voluntary. While Grantee will not receive Restricted Stock
Units or other Awards if he or she decides against participating in the Plan or providing Data as described above, Grantee’s
career and salary will not be affected in any way. For more information on the consequences of the refusal to provide Data,
Grantee may contact dataprivacy@maximintegrated.com.

CANADA
Terms and Conditions
Award Payable Only in Shares
Notwithstanding Section 8(d) of the Plan, Restricted Stock Units granted to Grantees in Canada shall be paid in Shares only and do
not provide any right for Grantee to receive a cash payment. This provision is without prejudice to the application of Section 8 of the
Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
Nature of Plan and Restricted Stock Units
This provision replaces the second paragraph of Section 3 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement:
For purposes of these Restricted Stock Units, Grantee’s Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant will be
considered terminated (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not such termination is later found to be invalid,
unlawful or in breach of employment laws in the jurisdiction where Grantee is providing services or the terms of Grantee’s
employment or service agreement, if any) effective as of the date that is the earliest of (1) the date on which Grantee’s employment
or service relationship is terminated, (2) the date Grantee receives written notice of termination of the employment or service
relationship from the Service Recipient, or (3) the date Grantee is no longer actively providing services to the Company, the Service
Recipient or any other Parent or Subsidiary, regardless of any notice period or period of pay in lieu of such notice required under

statutory law, regulatory law and/or common law). The Administrator shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Grantee
is no longer
A-6
actively providing services for purposes of his or her Restricted Stock Unit Award (including whether Grantee may still be
considered to be actively providing services while on leave of absence). If, notwithstanding the foregoing, applicable employment
legislation explicitly requires continued vesting during a statutory notice period, Grantee’s right to vest in the Restricted Stock Units,
if any, will terminate effective as of the last date of the minimum statutory notice period, but Grantee will not earn or be entitled to
pro-rated vesting if the vesting date falls after the end of Grantee’s statutory notice period, nor will Grantee be entitled to any
compensation for lost vesting.

Data Privacy Notice and Consent
This provision supplements the Data Privacy Consent in the “All Countries Except the United States, Member Countries of the
European Union/European Economic Area, Switzerland and the United Kingdom” section of this Appendix:
Grantee hereby authorizes the Company and the Company’s representatives, including broker(s) designated by the Company, to
discuss with and obtain all relevant information from all personnel, professional or non-professional, involved in the administration
and operation of the Plan. Grantee further authorizes the Company, the Service Recipient and any other Parent or Subsidiary, and
Morgan Stanley to disclose and discuss the Plan with their advisors. Grantee further authorizes the Company, the Service Recipient
and any other Parent or Subsidiary to record such information and to keep such information in Grantee’s employee file.
Notifications
Securities Law Notification
Grantee may not be permitted to sell within Canada the Shares acquired under the Plan. Grantee may only be permitted to sell Shares
acquired under the Plan through the designated broker appointed under the Plan, if any, provided the resale of Shares acquired under
the Plan takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of a stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. Currently the Shares
are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market in the United States of America.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Notification
Foreign specified property, including shares, restricted stock units, and other rights to receive shares (e.g., stock options) of a non-
Canadian company held by a Canadian resident must generally be reported annually on a Form T1135 (Foreign Income Verification
Statement) if the total cost of his or her foreign assets exceeds C$100,000 at any time during the year. Thus, Restricted Stock Units
A-7
acquired under the Plan must be reported (generally at a nil cost) if the C$100,000 cost threshold is exceeded because Grantee holds
other specified foreign property. When Shares are acquired pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units, their cost generally is the adjusted
cost base (“ACB”) of the Shares. The ACB ordinarily is equal to the fair market value of the Shares at the time of acquisition, but if
Grantee owns other Shares, this ACB may have to be averaged with the ACB of the other Shares.
CHINA
Terms and Conditions
The following provisions apply if Grantee is subject to exchange control regulations in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”
or “China”), as determined by the Company in its sole discretion.
SAFE Approval Requirement
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or the Plan, no Shares will be issued to Grantee unless and until all
necessary exchange control or other approvals with respect to the Plan have been obtained from the PRC State Administration of
Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) or its local counterpart (“SAFE Approval”) and provided such SAFE Approval is maintained through
each vesting date. In the event that SAFE Approval has not been obtained or is not maintained prior to any vesting date(s), such
portion of the Restricted Stock Units will not vest until such SAFE Approval is obtained (the “Actual Vesting Date”). If Grantee’s
Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant ceases prior to the Actual Vesting Date, Grantee will not be entitled to
vest in any portion of the Restricted Stock Units and the Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited without any liability to the
Company, Parent or any Subsidiary.
Sale of Shares
To facilitate compliance with any Applicable Laws, Grantee agrees that the Company may determine that any Shares issued to
Grantee upon vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units must be sold. The sale may occur (i) immediately upon the vesting
and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, (ii) following Grantee’s termination of Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or
Consultant, or (iii) within any other time frame as the Company determines to be necessary or advisable for legal or administrative
reasons. Grantee agrees that the Company is authorized to instruct Morgan Stanley or such other broker as determined by the
Company to assist with the mandatory sale of such Shares (on Grantee’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further
consent) and Grantee expressly authorizes Morgan Stanley or such other broker as determined by the Company to complete the sale
of such Shares. Grantee acknowledges that Morgan Stanley or such other broker as determined by the Company is under no
obligation to arrange for the sale of the Shares at any particular price. In this event, the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, less any
Tax-Related Items and broker’s fees or commissions, will be remitted to Grantee in accordance with applicable exchange control
laws and regulations.
Dividend Reinvestment
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or the Plan, in the event that Grantee acquires Shares under the Plan and
in the event that the Company, in its discretion, declares payment of any cash dividends on such Shares, Grantee acknowledges and
agrees that the Company, Morgan
A-8
Stanley and/or any other designated broker may use such cash dividends to automatically purchase additional Shares to be issued
into Grantee’s brokerage account. Any additional Shares acquired pursuant to the preceding sentence are subject to the same
exchange control requirements as other Shares Grantee may hold. Any cash dividends not used to purchase Shares or pay associated
costs (e.g., broker fees) will be immediately repatriated to China pursuant to the procedures set by the Company in compliance with
SAFE requirements.
Exchange Control Requirements
Grantee understands and agrees that Grantee will be required to immediately repatriate to China any funds resulting from the
Restricted Stock Units (e.g., the sales proceeds, dividends paid on Shares). Grantee further understands that, under applicable
exchange control laws and regulations, such repatriation of funds may need to be effected through a special exchange control
account established by the Company, the Service Recipient or any other Parent or Subsidiary and Grantee hereby consents and
agrees that the funds may be transferred to such special account prior to being delivered to Grantee. Grantee also agrees to sign any
agreements, forms and/or consents that may be reasonably requested by the Company (or the Company’s designated broker) to
effectuate any of the remittances, transfers, conversions or other processes affecting the proceeds. The proceeds may be paid to
Grantee in U.S. dollars or in local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid in U.S. dollars, Grantee
understands that he or she will be required to set up a U.S. dollar account in China so that the proceeds may be deposited into this
account. Grantee understands and acknowledges that the Company may face delays in distributing the proceeds to Grantee due to
exchange control requirements in China. As a result, Grantee understands and acknowledges that neither the Company nor the
Service Recipient nor any other Parent or Subsidiary can be held liable for any delay in delivering the proceeds to Grantee.
If the proceeds are paid in local currency, Grantee acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular
exchange control conversion rate and that the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to
exchange control requirements. Grantee agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold or a
dividend is paid and the time the net proceeds are converted to local currency and distributed to Grantee.
Finally, Grantee agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future to facilitate
compliance with exchange control requirements in China.
Notifications
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Notification
Chinese residents may be required to report to SAFE all details of their foreign financial assets and liabilities, as well as details of

may affect Grantee’s ability to participate in the Plan. For more
A-15
information on any required Consent or withdrawal of consent, Grantee may contact his or her local human resources representative.
Securities Law Restriction
The Plan, Grant Notice, Agreement, including this Appendix, and all other materials Grantee may receive regarding his or her
participation in the Plan or the grant of Restricted Stock Units do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Russia and
are deemed accepted by Grantee only upon receipt of the signed Grant Notice in the United States or upon acceptance through an
online acceptance website maintained in the United States. In no event will Shares acquired at vesting be delivered to Grantee in
Russia; all Shares will be maintained on Grantee’s behalf in the United States. The issuance of Shares acquired at vesting has not
and will not be registered in Russia; therefore, such Shares may not be offered or placed in public circulation in Russia.
U.S. Transaction Notification
Grantee’s acceptance of the Agreement results in a contract between Grantee and the Company completed in the United States and
governed by the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to the conflict of laws principles thereof. Further, any Shares
issued to Grantee upon vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock units shall be delivered through a bank or brokerage account in
the United States. Grantee is not permitted to sell or otherwise dispose of Shares directly to other Russian legal entities or
individuals.
Notifications
Exchange Control Notification
All restrictions on the payment of funds by non-residents into a Russian resident’s declared foreign brokerage account, including
dividends and proceeds from the sale of Shares, have been abolished. Grantee may now receive, hold and remit dividends and
proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under the Plan into and out of his or her brokerage account without any requirement to
first repatriate such funds to an authorized bank in Russia. Grantee should be aware that the rules related to foreign bank accounts
are different and that certain restrictions with respect to payments by non-residents into a Russian currency resident’s foreign bank
account may continue to apply where the foreign bank account is located in the United States. Grantee should contact his or her
personal advisor to confirm the application of the exchange control restrictions prior to vesting in the Restricted Stock Units and
selling Shares, as significant penalties may apply in the case of non-compliance with the exchange control restrictions and because
such exchange control restrictions are subject to change.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Notification
Russian residents are required to report the opening, closing or change in account details of any foreign bank account to the Russian
tax authorities within one month of the opening, closing or change of such account. Russian residents also are required to report to
the Russian tax authorities on or before June 1 of the following year (i) the beginning and ending balances in a foreign bank account
each year and (ii) transactions related to such a foreign account during the year. Foreign brokerage accounts and foreign accounts
with other financial institutions (financial market organizations) also must be reported. Certain specific exceptions from the
reporting requirements may apply. Grantee should consult with his or her personal legal advisor to determine how these
A-16
reporting requirements apply to any account opened in connection with Grantee’s participation in the Plan.
Labor Law Notification
If Grantee continues to hold Shares acquired under the Plan after an involuntary termination of employment, Grantee may not be
eligible to receive unemployment benefits in Russia.
Anti-Corruption Notification
Anti-corruption laws prohibit certain public servants, their spouses and their dependent children from owning any foreign source
financial instruments (e.g., shares of foreign companies such as the Company). Accordingly, Grantee should inform the Company if
he or she is covered by these laws because Grantee should not hold Shares acquired under the Plan under these circumstances.
SINGAPORE
Terms and Conditions
Sales Restriction
This provision supplements Section 2 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement:
Grantee agrees that, if for any reason the Restricted Stock Units vest and become non-forfeitable and Shares are issued to Grantee
within six months of the Grant Date, Grantee will not sell the Shares or offer the Shares for sale in Singapore prior to the six-month
anniversary of such Grant Date unless such sale or offer is made pursuant to the exemptions under Part XIII Division (1) Subdivision
(4) (other than section 280) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) (“SFA”) and in accordance with the conditions
of any other applicable provision of the SFA.
Notifications
Securities Law Notification
The grant of the Restricted Stock Units is being made pursuant to the “Qualifying Person” exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the
SFA and is not made with a view to the Restricted Stock Units or underlying Shares being subsequently offered for sale to any other
party. The Plan has not been and will not be lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore.
Director Notification Requirement
Directors (including alternate, substitute, associate and shadow directors) of a Singapore Subsidiary, regardless of whether Singapore
residents and/or employed in Singapore, are subject to certain notification requirements under the Singapore Companies Act. Among
these requirements is an obligation to notify such entity in writing within two business days of any of the following events (i) the
acquisition or disposal of an interest in the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary (e.g., Restricted Stock Units, Shares), (ii) any
change in previously-disclosed interests (e.g., sale of Shares), or (iii) becoming a director, associate director or shadow director of a
Subsidiary in Singapore, if the individual holds such an interest at that time. These notification requirements apply regardless of
whether the directors are residents of or employed in Singapore.
A-17
SPAIN
Terms and Conditions
Labor Law Acknowledgment
This provision supplements Section 9 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement:
By accepting the Restricted Stock Units, Grantee acknowledges that he or she understands and agrees to participation in the Plan and
that he or she has received a copy of the Plan.
Grantee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and discretionally decided to grant Restricted Stock Units under
the Plan to individuals who may be employees or other service providers of the Company or its Subsidiaries throughout the world.
The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically
or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement.
Consequently, Grantee understands that any grant is given on the assumption and condition that it shall not become a part of any
employment or service contract (either with the Company, the Service Recipient or any other Parent or Subsidiary) and shall not be
considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further,
Grantee understands and freely accepts that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and
discretionary grant since the future value of the Restricted Stock Units and Shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition,
Grantee understands that this grant would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, Grantee
understands, acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions
not be met for any reason, then any grant of Restricted Stock Units shall be null and void.
Grantee understands and agrees that, as a condition of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the termination of Grantee’s
Continuous Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant for any reason except by reason of death (but including the reasons listed
below) will automatically result in the loss of the Restricted Stock Units to the extent the Restricted Stock Units have not vested as
of the date Grantee is no longer actively employed. In particular, unless otherwise set forth in the Agreement, Grantee understands
and agrees that any unvested Restricted Stock Units as of the date Grantee is no longer actively employed will be forfeited without
entitlement to the underlying Shares or to any amount of indemnification in the event of a termination of Grantee’s Continuous
Status as an Employee, Director or Consultant by reason of, but not limited to, resignation, disciplinary dismissal adjudged to be
with cause, disciplinary dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without good cause (i.e., subject to a “despido improcedente”),
individual or collective dismissal adjudged or recognized to be without cause, individual or collective dismissal on objective
grounds, whether adjudged or recognized to be with or without cause, material modification of the terms of employment under
Article 41 of the Workers’ Statute, relocation under Article 40 of the Workers’ Statute, Article 50 of the Workers’ Statute, unilateral
withdrawal by the Service Recipient and under Article 10.3 of the Royal Decree 1382/1985. Grantee acknowledges that he or she
has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in Sections 2, 3 and 9 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
A-18
Notifications
Securities Law Notification
The Restricted Stock Units and the Shares described in the Agreement do not qualify under Spanish regulations as securities. No
“offer of securities to the public,” as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The
Agreement (including this Appendix) has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores, and
does not constitute a public offering prospectus.
Exchange Control Notification
Spanish residents must declare for statistical purposes the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Shares to the Dirección General
de Comercio e Inversiones (“DGCI”), a department of the Ministry of Industry, Tourism and Commerce. Generally, the declaration
must be made in January for Shares acquired or sold during (or owned as of December 31 of) the prior year; however, if the value of
Shares acquired or sold exceeds a certain threshold (or the Spanish resident holds 10% or more of the share capital of the Company
or such other amount that would entitle him or her to join the Board), the declaration must be filed within one month of the
acquisition or sale, as applicable.
In addition, Spanish residents are required to electronically declare to the Bank of Spain any securities accounts (including brokerage
accounts held abroad), as well as the securities (including Shares acquired at vesting of the Restricted Stock Units) held in such
accounts, and any transactions carried out with non-Spanish residents, depending on the value of the transactions for all such
accounts during the prior tax year or the balances in such accounts as of December 31 of the prior tax year.
Foreign Asset/Account Reporting Notification
Spanish residents must report assets or rights deposited or held outside of Spain (e.g., cash or Shares held in a bank or brokerage
account) to the Spanish tax authorities on their annual tax returns. This reporting obligation is based on the value of those rights and
assets as of December 31 and has a threshold of €50,000 per type of asset (bank account, shares of stock, real estate, etc.). After such
assets or rights are initially reported, the reporting obligation will apply for subsequent years only if the value of any previously-
reported asset or right increases by more than €20,000 or if the ownership of such asset or right is transferred or relinquished during
the year. For purposes of this requirement, shares of Common Stock acquired under the Plan or other equity programs offered by the
Company constitute assets, but unvested rights (e.g., Restricted Stock Units, etc.) are not considered assets or rights.
SWEDEN
Terms and Conditions
Responsibility for Taxes
The following provision supplements Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement:
Without limiting the Company and the Service Recipient’s authority to satisfy their withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items as
set forth in Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement,
A-19
in accepting the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, Grantee authorizes the Company and/or the Service Recipient to withhold
Shares or to sell Shares otherwise deliverable to Grantee upon vesting and settlement of the Restricted Stock Units in order to satisfy
Tax-Related Items, regardless of whether the Company and/or the Service Recipient has an obligation to withhold such Tax-Related
Items.
SWITZERLAND
Notifications
Securities Law Notification
Neither this document nor any other materials relating to the Restricted Stock Units (i) constitutes a prospectus according to articles
35 et seq. of the Swiss Federal Act on Financial Services (“FinSA”) (ii) may be publicly distributed or otherwise made publicly
available in Switzerland to any person other than an employee of the Company or (iii) has been or will be filed with, approved or
supervised by any Swiss reviewing body according to article 51 FinSA or any Swiss regulatory authority, including the Swiss
Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA.
TAIWAN
Notifications
Securities Law Notification
The offer of participation in the Plan is available only for employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries. The offer of participation
in the Plan is not a public offer of securities by a Taiwanese company.
Exchange Control Notification
Taiwanese residents may remit foreign currency (including proceeds from the sale of Shares or the receipt of any dividends) into
Taiwan up to US$5,000,000 per year without justification. However, if the transaction amount is TWD500,000 or more in a single
transaction, a Foreign Exchange Transaction Form must be submitted to the remitting bank. Further, if the transaction amount is
US$500,000 or more in a single transaction, supporting documentation, to the satisfaction of the remitting, must also be provided.
THAILAND
Notifications
Exchange Control Notification
Thai residents must repatriate the proceeds from the sale of Shares and/or cash dividends paid on such Shares to Thailand
immediately following the receipt of such proceeds if the amount of such proceeds or cash dividends received in a single transaction
is US$200,000 or more. The repatriated cash proceeds must either be converted into Thai Baht or deposited into a foreign currency
account opened with a commercial bank in Thailand that is authorized by the Bank of Thailand to engage in the purchase, exchange
and withdrawal of foreign currency (i.e., an authorized agent) within 360
A-20
days of such repatriation. Grantee must inform the authorized agent of the details of the foreign currency transaction (which may
include Grantee’s identification information and the purpose of the transaction).
Failure to comply with the above obligations may lead to penalties being assessed by the Bank of Thailand. Because exchange
control regulations change frequently and without notice, Grantee should consult his or her legal advisor before selling any Shares
(or receiving any other funds in connection with the Plan) to ensure compliance with current regulations. It is Grantee’s
responsibility to comply with exchange control laws in Thailand, and neither the Company nor the Service Recipient will be liable
for any fines or penalties resulting from failure to comply with Applicable Laws.
TURKEY
Notifications
Securities Law Notification
Pursuant to Turkish securities law, selling Shares acquired under the Plan within Turkey is not permitted. The Shares are currently
traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, which is located outside of Turkey, under the ticker symbol “MXIM” and the Shares
may be sold through this exchange.
Exchange Control Notification
In certain circumstances, Turkish residents are permitted to sell shares traded on a non-Turkish stock exchange only through a
financial intermediary licensed in Turkey. Grantee may be required to appoint a Turkish broker to assist with the sale of the Shares
acquired under the Plan. Grantee should consult his or her personal legal advisor before selling any Shares acquired under the Plan to
confirm if this requirement applies.
UNITED KINGDOM
Terms and Conditions
Award Payable Only in Shares
Notwithstanding Section 8(d) of the Plan, Restricted Stock Units granted to Grantees in United Kingdom shall be paid in Shares only
and do not provide any right for Grantees in the United Kingdom to receive a cash payment. This provision is without prejudice to
the application of Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
Eligibility
Notwithstanding Section 6 of the Plan, or any provision or discretion in the Plan or the Agreement to the contrary, Restricted Stock
Units may be granted only to Employees in the United Kingdom. For the avoidance of doubt, Consultants based in the United
Kingdom shall not be eligible to participate in the Plan.
Tax Acknowledgment
A-21
The following provisions supplement Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement:
Without limitation to Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, Grantee agrees that he or she is liable for all Tax-Related
Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items as and when requested by the Company or the Service Recipient or by
Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Grantee also agrees to
indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and the Service Recipient against any taxes that they are required to pay or withhold
on Grantee’s behalf or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Grantee is an executive officer or director of the Company (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of
the Exchange Act ), Grantee acknowledges that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company or the Service Recipient for the
amount of any income tax not collected from or paid by Grantee, as it may be considered a loan. In this case, the amount of any
income tax not collected within ninety (90) days of the end of the U.K. tax year in which the event giving rise to the Tax-Related
Item(s) occurs may constitute a benefit to Grantee on which additional income tax and National Insurance contributions (“NICs”)
may be payable. Grantee understands that he or she will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this
additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or the Service Recipient
(as appropriate) the amount of any NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be recovered from Grantee at any time by
any of the means referred to in Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
Joint Election
As a condition of Grantee’s participation in the Plan and of the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, Grantee agrees to accept any
liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance contributions which may be payable by the Company and/or the Service Recipient
with respect to the Chargeable Event (“Service Recipient NICs”). Without limitation to the foregoing, Grantee agrees to execute a
joint election with the Company or the Service Recipient, the form of such joint election being formally approved by HMRC (the
“Joint Election”), and any other required consents or elections as provided to Grantee by the Company or the Service Recipient.
Grantee further agrees to execute such other joint elections as may be required between Grantee and any successor to the Company
or the Service Recipient.
If Grantee does not enter into the NICs Joint Election, if approval of the NICs Joint election has been withdrawn by HMRC, if the
NICs Joint Election is revoked by the Company or the Service Recipient (as applicable), or if the NICs Joint Election is jointly
revoked by Grantee and the Company or the Service Recipient, as applicable, the Restricted Stock Units shall cease vesting and
become null and void, and no Shares shall be acquired under the Plan, without any liability to the Company, the Service Recipient
and/or any Parent or Subsidiary.
Grantee further agrees that the Company and/or the Service Recipient may collect the Service Recipient NICs by any of the means
set forth in Section 8 of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, as supplemented above.
