Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. Senior Notes On August 10, 2026, Skyworks Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company ), issued $800,000,000 5.000% Senior Notes due 2028 (the 2028 Notes ), $600,000,000 5.750% Senior Notes due 2032 (the 2032 Notes ) and $600,000,000 6.250% Senior Notes due 2036 (the 2036 Notes and, collectively with the 2028 Notes and the 2032 Notes, the Notes ), pursuant to the Company s registration statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-297918) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC ) on August 3, 2026. The Company intends to use the net proceeds received from the sale of the Notes, together with its existing cash and cash equivalents, to finance the cash consideration of approximately $3.00 billion for the Mergers (as defined below). In the event the consummation of the Mergers does not occur, the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the 2032 Notes for general corporate purposes. The terms of the Notes are governed by an Indenture, dated as of August 10, 2026 (the Base Indenture ), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture with respect to the 2028 Notes, a Second Supplemental Indenture with respect to the 2032 Notes and a Third Supplemental Indenture with respect to the 2036 Notes, each dated as of August 10, 2026 (collectively, the Supplemental Indentures and, collectively with the Base Indenture, the Indenture ), in each case by and between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee. The Indenture contains customary covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company, with certain exceptions, to incur debt secured by liens, engage in sale and leaseback transactions and enter into certain consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. The Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes of any series at any time and from time to time prior to maturity, in whole or in part, for cash at the applicable redemption prices set forth in the applicable Supplemental Indenture. If the Company undergoes a change of control repurchase event, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to a series of Notes, holders may require the Company to repurchase the Notes of such series in whole or in part for cash at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the repurchase date. In addition, if (i) the consummation of the acquisition (the Mergers ) of Qorvo, Inc., a Delaware corporation ( Qorvo ), pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 27, 2025, as amended, supplemented, amended and restated, restated or otherwise modified from time to time (the Merger Agreement ), by and among the Company, Comet Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation, Comet Acquisition II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and Qorvo does not occur on or before 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time on November 3, 2027, (ii) the Company notifies the trustee and the holders of the 2028 Notes and the 2036 Notes that it will not pursue the consummation of the Mergers, or (iii) the Merger Agreement has been terminated without the consummation of the Mergers, the 2028 Notes and the 2036 Notes will be subject to a special mandatory redemption upon the terms and at the redemption price set forth in the Supplemental Indenture governing such series of Notes. The 2032 Notes will not be subject to any special mandatory redemption if the Mergers are not completed. The Indenture contains customary events of default, including failure to make required payments of principal and interest, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency and default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty contained in the Indenture or the Notes. The 2028 Notes will bear interest from and including August 10, 2026 at the rate of 5.000% per annum, the 2032 Notes will bear interest from and including August 10, 2026 at the rate of 5.750% per annum and the 2036 Notes will bear interest from and including August 10, 2026 at the rate of 6.250% per annum. The Notes are the Company s senior unsecured obligations and are equal in right of payment with its other senior unsecured debt. The Notes are effectively subordinated to the Company s secured debt, to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt. The Notes are not obligations of any of the Company s subsidiaries and, accordingly, are structurally subordinated to all obligations of the Company s subsidiaries. The above summaries of the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture, the Third Supplemental Indenture and the Notes do not purport to be complete discussions of those agreements or related documents and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of those agreements, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6 and 4.7, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
