NOTE 12 —COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees
The Company has issued certain indemnifications to its lessors for taxes and general liability under some of its agreements. The Company has entered into insurance contracts that are intended to limit its exposure to such indemnifications. As of September 27, 2026, the Company had not recorded any liability on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in connection with these indemnifications, as it does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any material amounts will be paid under these guarantees.
Generally, the Company indemnifies, under pre-determined conditions and limitations, its customers for infringement of third-party intellectual property rights by the Company’s products or services. The Company seeks to limit its liability for such indemnity to an amount not to exceed the sales price of the products or services subject to its indemnification obligations. The Company does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any material amounts will be paid under these guarantees.
The Company provides guarantees and standby letters of credit to certain parties as required for certain transactions initiated during the ordinary course of business. As of September 27, 2026, the maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these arrangements and letters of credit was $290.3 million. The Company does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available, that it is probable that any material amounts will be required to be paid.
In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers, and certain other employees, consistent with its Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation; and under local law, the Company may be required to provide indemnification to its employees for actions within the scope of their employment. Although the Company maintains insurance contracts that cover some of the potential liability associated with these indemnification agreements, there is no guarantee that all such liabilities will be covered. The Company does not believe, based on historical experience and information currently available,
Lam Research Corporation 2027 Q1 10-Q 13 that it is probable that any material amounts will be required to be paid under such indemnification agreements or statutory obligations.
Warranties
The Company provides standard warranties on its systems. The liability amount is based on actual historical warranty spending activity by type of system, customer, and geographic region, modified for any known differences such as the impact of system reliability improvements. As of September 27, 2026, warranty reserves totaling $21.5 million were reported in Other long-term liabilities, and the remainder were included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Changes in the Company’s product warranty reserves were as follows:
| Three Months Ended | ||

| Settlements made during the period | (57,078) | (64,525) |
| Changes in liability for pre-existing warranties | (15,002) | (8,659) |
| Balance at end of period | $342,233 | $257,866 |
Legal Proceedings
While the Company is not currently a party to any legal proceedings that it believes material, the Company is either a defendant or plaintiff in various actions that have arisen from time to time in the normal course of business, including intellectual property claims. The Company accrues for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable. Based on current information, the Company does not believe that a material loss from known matters is probable and therefore has not recorded an accrual of any material amount for litigation or other contingencies related to existing legal proceedings.
NOTE 13 —STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
In May 2024, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to an additional $10.00 billion of Common Stock; this authorization supplements the remaining balance from any prior authorizations. These repurchases can be conducted on the open market or as private purchases and may include the use of derivative contracts with large financial institutions, in all cases subject to compliance with applicable law. This repurchase program has no termination date and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
Repurchases under the repurchase program were as follows during the periods indicated.
| Period · Total Number ofSharesRepurchased · Total Cost ofRepurchase (1) · Average PricePaid per Share (1,2) · AmountAvailable UnderRepurchaseProgram | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands, except per share data) | |||||
| Available balance as of June 28, 2026 | $4,042,724 | ||||
| Quarter ended September 27, 2026 | 2,344 | (3) | $1,010,711 | $329.17 | $3,032,013 |
(1) The Company’s net share repurchases are subject to a 1% excise tax under the Inflation Reduction Act. Excise tax incurred reduces the amount available under the repurchase program, as applicable, and is included in the cost of shares repurchased in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity and the calculation of the average price paid per share.
(2) Average price paid per share excludes the effect of accelerated share repurchase activities. See additional disclosure below regarding the Company’s accelerated share repurchase activity during the fiscal year.
(3) Includes shares received at initial or final settlement of accelerated share repurchase agreements. See additional disclosure below regarding the Company’s accelerated share repurchase activity during the fiscal year.
Accelerated Share Repurchase Agreements
During the three months ended September 27, 2026, the Company entered into accelerated share repurchase agreements (the “September 2026 ASRs”) withtwo financial institutions to repurchase a total of $1.00 billion of Common Stock. The Company took an initial delivery of approximately 2.3 million shares, which represented 75% of the prepayment amount divided by the Company’s
Lam Research Corporation 2027 Q1 10-Q 14 closing stock price on the date of execution. The total number of shares to be received under the September 2026 ASRs will be based upon the average daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during the repurchase period, less an agreed upon discount. The September 2026 ASRs are expected to fully settle in the quarter ended December 27, 2026.
The Company recorded each of the September 2026 ASRs as equity transactions; as such, at the time of receipt, shares were included in treasury stock at fair market value as of the corresponding trade date. The Company reflects shares received as a repurchase of common stock in the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share.
NOTE 14 —SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company operates inone reportable business segment: manufacturing and servicing of wafer processing semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The Company’s material operating segments qualify for aggregation due to their customer base and similarities in economic characteristics, nature of products and services, and processes for procurement, manufacturing, and distribution.
Segment information is prepared and managed on the same basis as described in Note 19, “Segment, Geographic Information, and Major Customers,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s 2026 Form 10-K.
The Company's centralized manufacturing and support organizations, including global operations and certain administrative functions, provide support to its operating segments. Costs incurred by these organizations, as well as depreciation and amortization and equity-based compensation expense are allocated to cost of goods sold as overhead. Consequently, depreciation and amortization and equity-based compensation expense are not independently identifiable components within the segment’s results and, therefore, are not provided.
With the exception of goodwill, the Company does not identify assets by operating segment. Consequently, the chief operating decision maker does not regularly review or receive discrete asset information by operating segment.
The table below reconciles the Company's reportable segment to income before income taxes:
| Three Months Ended | ||

| September 27,2026 | September 28,2025 | |
