Gumi Power Substation Upgrade
Current report
A planned upgrade to the electrical substation in our Gumi fabrication facility by a third party is currently expected to temporarily impact our fabrication operations during the third quarter of 2026. To help mitigate potential customer supply disruptions, we currently plan to increase inventory production during the second quarter and a portion of the third quarter of 2026 in advance of the electrical substation upgrade being carried out by a third party owner of the substation. As a result, we expect our factory utilization rate to be somewhat higher in the second quarter of 2026, followed by lower utilization in the third quarter. Accordingly, we expect higher utilization to have a favorable impact on gross profit margin in the second quarter, while lower utilization in the third quarter is expected to adversely affect gross profit margins in the third and fourth quarters.

Current wording
To maintain and increase our profitability, we must accurately forecast trends in demand for electronics devices that incorporate semiconductor products we produce. We must understand our customers’ needs as well as the likely end market trends and demand in the markets they serve, including trends and cyclicality in the semiconductor industry, which are influenced by broader macroeconomic conditions, including inflation, interest rates, geopolitical developments and global trade policies. For example, certain shipments to customers with operations in or exposure to China or the United States are subject to heightened risks and uncertainties related to trade and export control policies, including the imposition of new tariffs or increases in existing tariffs. Furthermore, ongoing geopolitical tensions, including conflicts and instability in the Middle East, such as a potential escalation involving the United States, Israel, and Iran, as well as tensions between China and Taiwan, may contribute to increased volatility in global markets and increased costs, as well as disruptions in supply chains and impacts to customer demand. We must also invest in relevant research and development activities and purchase necessary materials on a timely basis to meet our customers’ demand while maintaining our target margins and cash flow.

Net sales for our Power Analog Solutions and Power IC business are driven by design wins in which we are selected by an electronics original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) or other potential customer to supply its demand for a particular product. A customer will often have more than one supplier designed into multi-source components for a particular product line. Once we have design wins and the products enter into mass production, we often specify the pricing of a particular product for a set period of time, with periodic discussions and renegotiations of pricing with our customers. In any given period, our net sales depend heavily upon theend-market demand for the goods in which our products are used, the inventory levels maintained by our customers and, in some cases, allocation of demand for components for a particular product among selected qualified suppliers.

Our Power Analog Solutions and Power IC business requires investments in capital equipment. Analog and mixed-signal manufacturing facilities and processes are typically distinguished by the design and process implementation expertise rather than the use of the most advanced equipment. Many of these processes also tend to migrate more slowly to smaller geometries due to technological barriers and increased costs. For example, some of our products use high-voltage technology that requires larger geometries and that may not migrate to smaller geometries for several years, if at all. As a result, our manufacturing base and strategy do not require substantial investment in leading edge process equipment for those products, allowing us to utilize our facilities and equipment over an extended period of time with moderate required capital investments. In addition, we are less likely to experience significant industry overcapacity, which can cause product prices to decline significantly. In general, we seek to invest in manufacturing capacity that can be used for multiple high-value applications over an extended period of time. In addition, we outsource manufacturing of Power IC products which do require advanced technology and 8-inch wafer capacity. We believe this balanced capital investment strategy enables us to optimize our capital investments and facilitates more diversified product and service offerings.

Previous wording
By outsourcing manufacturing of Power IC products to an external foundry, we have been able to adapt dynamically to changing customer requirements and address growing markets without substantial capital investments by us. However, relying on an external foundry exposes us to the risk of being unable to secure manufacturing capacity, particularly during the global shortage of foundry services. Although we work to diversify the sourcing of external manufacturing, if these efforts are at any time unsuccessful, our ability to deliver products to our customers may be negatively impacted, which would adversely affect our relationship with customers and opportunities to secure new design-wins.
Current wording
As we expanded our design capabilities to products that require lower geometries unavailable at our existing manufacturing facilities, we have started outsourcing 8-inch wafer for Power IC products after the sale of our fabrication facility located in Cheongju, Korea in 2020. This additional source of manufacturing has been an important part of our supply chain management.

Although we work strategically with the external foundry to ensure long-term wafer capacity, if these efforts are at any time unsuccessful, our ability to deliver products to our customers may be negatively impacted, which would adversely affect our relationship with customers and opportunities to secure new design-wins.

On March 7, 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a strategy to transition to a pure-play Power company, focusing its investments on the Power Analog Solutions and Power IC businesses to enhance profitability and maximize shareholder value. As part of this strategy, we explored all strategic options including a sale, merger, joint venture, licensing, and wind-down for its Display business (Display IC products). However, we were not able to consummate a transaction following several months of discussions with several interested parties on terms that our Board of Directors believed were in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

Although we shut down our Display business, we continue to provide limited support for remaining customer obligations including the sale of “end of life” (“EOL”) Display products, which is being conducted by MSK. We have retained a small team to continue to support customers with respect to EOL Display products. The sale of EOL Display products and the potential monetization of the intellectual property assets of the Discontinued Business are currently expected to generate cash inflow of approximately $20 million over a period of approximately 2 years from the second half of 2025, depending upon customer demand and monetization efforts of the Display intellectual property assets.
Current wording
Although we have discontinued our Display business, certain limited activities remain solely for the purpose of completing the orderly wind-down of operations and fulfilling pre-existing customer obligations, including the sale of “end of life” (“EOL”) Display products, which is being conducted by MSK. A small team has been retained exclusively to facilitate these wind-down activities. The sale of EOL Display products generated cash inflow of $5.8 million during the second half of 2025 and is expected to generate cash inflow of over $10 million in the next two years, depending upon customer demand. In addition, we continue to evaluate the potential monetization of the intellectual property assets of the Discontinued Business. Any proceeds from such monetization, if realized, could result in additional cash inflows.

The total estimated cash cost of the liquidation is approximately $12 to $15 million, which is expected to be offset by the cash inflow that may be generated as described above. Theone-time liquidation cost is expected to consist of statutory severance and other employee-related costs, contract termination charges and other associated costs. Of this estimated total cash cost, we paid $6.5 million of statutory severance and other employee-related costs in the second quarter of 2025. Further, we originally expected to pay certain contract termination charges in full along with the statutory severance and other employee-related costs, but negotiated with the respective vendors for those contract termination charges totaling $6.5 million to be paid over the duration of the remaining existing contract terms.

In particular, the military conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran has created significant volatility in global energy and materials markets and may adversely affect our manufacturing costs, supply chain continuity, and customer demand. For example, the resulting disruptions to oil, gas, and critical raw material shipments could constrain availability and/or increase costs of key inputs used in semiconductor production and could lead to delays or reduced demand across end markets, which may materially and adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The length and severity of these macroeconomic events and their overall impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition remain uncertain.

On October 7, 2022, the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) of the U.S. Department of Commerce published changes to U.S. export control regulations (U.S. Export Regulations), including new restrictions on Chinese entities’ ability to obtain advanced computing chips, develop and maintain supercomputers, and manufacture advanced semiconductors. Further, on October 12, 2022, a new rule went into effect requiring U.S. persons to obtain a license prior to engaging in certain activities that could “support” certainend-uses andend-users, including those related to weapons of mass destruction. Additionally, on October 21, 2022, BIS brought into effect a series of new Foreign Direct Product (FDP) rules and various new controls on advanced computing items, significantly expanding the scope of items that are subject to export control under the U.S. Export Regulations. More recently, on October 25, 2023, BIS published additional rules, which went into effect on November 17, 2023 to expand, clarify, and correct the rules published in October 2022. A further corrected and clarified version of these rules went into effect on April 4, 2024. On January 16, 2025, BIS published amendments and clarifications of the U.S. Export Regulations which further tightened controls of advanced computing items. On September 30, 2025, BIS published an “Affiliates Rule,” effective immediately, to expandend-user controls to cover certain affiliates of entities designated on BIS Entity List or Military End User List or designated on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN) List administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control. Based on our understanding of the U.S. Export Regulations and related rules currently in effect, we expect to invest additional resources and efforts in the screening of prospects, customers, andend-users in order to comply with the new Affiliates Rule; while we do not anticipate that the rest of the rules will have a material impact on our current business, we will continue reviewing and assessing these rules and regulations and their potential impact on our business. Additional changes to the U.S. Export Regulations are expected, such as recently proposed rule changes that may expand restrictions on export transactions involving end users or end uses with military connections; but the scope or timing of such changes is uncertain. We will continue to monitor such developments, including potential additional trade restrictions, and other regulatory or policy changes by the U.S. and foreign governments.

Impact of Foreign Currency Exchange Rates on Reported Results of Operations. Historically, a portion of our revenues and cost of sales and greater than the majority of our operating expenses have been denominated innon-U.S. currencies, principally the Korean won, and we expect that this will remain true in the future. Because we report our results of operations in U.S. dollars converted from ournon-U.S. revenues and expenses based on monthly average exchange rates, changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar could materially impact our reported results of operations and distort period to period comparisons. In particular, because of the difference in the amount of our consolidated revenues and expenses that are in U.S. dollars relative to Korean won, depreciation in the U.S. dollar relative to the Korean won could result in a material increase in reported costs relative to revenues, and therefore could cause our profit margins and operating income to appear to decline materially, particularly relative to prior periods. The converse is true if the U.S. dollar were to appreciate relative to the Korean won. Moreover, our foreign currency gain or loss would be affected by changes in the exchange rate between the Korean won and the U.S. dollar as a substantial portion ofnon-cash translation gain or loss is associated with the intercompany long-term loans to one of our Korean subsidiaries, Magnachip Semiconductor, Ltd. or MSK, which is denominated in U.S. dollars. As of September 30, 2025, the outstanding intercompany loan balance including accrued interest between MSK and our Dutch subsidiary was $244.7 million. As a result of such foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, it could be more difficult to detect underlying trends in our business and results of operations. In addition, to the extent that fluctuations in currency exchange rates cause our results of operations to differ from our expectations or the expectations of our investors, the trading price of our stock could be adversely affected.
