This interim Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the MD&A in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017. The various sections of this MD&A contain a number of forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and trends in our businesses, uncertain events or assumptions, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances. Such statements are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this filing and particularly in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 3D of our Annual Report on Form 20-F, and as may be updated in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 6-K. Our actual results may differ materially, and these forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any divestitures, mergers, acquisitions, or other business combinations that had not been completed as of November 1, 2018.

Introduction

The Company

NXP Semiconductors N.V. (including our subsidiaries, referred to collectively herein as “NXP”, “NXP Semiconductors” and the “Company”) is a global semiconductor company incorporated in the Netherlands as a Dutch public company with limited liability (naamloze vennootschap). We provide leading High Performance Mixed Signal and, up to February 6, 2017, Standard Product solutions that leverage our deep application insight and our technology and manufacturing expertise in radio frequency, analog, power management, interface, security and digital processing products. Our product solutions are used in a wide range of application areas including: automotive, identification, wireless infrastructure, lighting, industrial, mobile, consumer, computing and software solutions for mobile phones.

Our corporate seat is in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Our principal executive office is at High Tech Campus 60, 5656 AG Eindhoven, the Netherlands, and our telephone number is +31 40 2729999. Our registered agent in the United States is NXP USA, Inc., 6501 William Cannon Dr. West, Austin, Texas 78735, United States of America, phone number +1 512 895 2000.

On September 19, 2018, NXP B.V., together with NXP Funding LLC, entered into a $1 billion senior unsecured bridge term credit facility agreement under which an aggregate principal amount of $1 billion of term loans (the “Term Loans”) were borrowed. The Term Loans mature 364 days following the closing date of September 19, 2018 and bear interest at a LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 1.5 percent. NXP used the net proceeds of the Term Loans for general corporate purposes as well as to finance parts of the announced equity buy-back program.

On September 10, 2018, NXP announced the initiation of a Quarterly Dividend Program under which the Company will pay a regular quarterly cash dividend, starting with the initial interim dividend for the third quarter of 2018 of $0.25 per ordinary share. The interim dividend was paid on October 5, 2018 to shareholders of record on September 25, 2018.

On February 20, 2018, NXP entered into an amendment (the “Purchase Agreement Amendment”) to that certain Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2016 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), with Qualcomm River Holdings B.V. (“Buyer”), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of QUALCOMM Incorporated. On April 19, 2018, Buyer and NXP entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of Amendment No. 2, the End Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), which is the date that, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, either Buyer or NXP would have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Offer has not been consummated on or before such date, has been extended until July 25, 2018. Amendment No. 2 also provides that, in addition to its existing rights, NXP will be entitled to receive the $2 billion Buyer Termination Compensation (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (a) if the Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms for any reason (subject to certain exceptions) and, at the time of any such termination, approval by the applicable antitrust authorities in China, or in any jurisdiction where the parties’ previously obtained clearance will expire or where the applicable antitrust authority has required or requested a resubmission for clearance, has not been received, or (b) at any time after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 25, 2018 if, at such time, approval by the applicable antitrust authorities in China, or in any

jurisdiction where the parties’ previously obtained clearance will expire or where the applicable antitrust authority has required or requested a resubmission for clearance, has not been received. In the event that NXP has received the Buyer Termination Compensation pursuant to clause (b) in the previous sentence, Buyer will be entitled to terminate the Purchase Agreement. Furthermore, Buyer and NXP have agreed to amend certain of the restrictions set forth in the Purchase Agreement related to the conduct and operations of NXP and its subsidiaries prior to the earlier of the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the closing of the Offer, including with respect to NXP’s ability to undertake acquisitions and settle litigation. On July 26, 2018, NXP received notice from Qualcomm Incorporated that Qualcomm had terminated, effective immediately, the Purchase Agreement following the inability to obtain the required approval for the transaction from the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) of the People’s Republic of China prior to the End Date. On July 26, NXP received the aforementioned $2 billion Buyer Termination Compensation. On July 26, 2018, subsequent to the termination of the Purchase Agreement, the Board of Directors of NXP authorized the repurchase of an additional $5 billion of the Company’s stock. Under the program, the Company may purchase its common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of shares of common stock, trading volume and general market conditions. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, we have repurchased 49.3 million shares, for a total of approximately $4.6 billion.

On July 10, 2018, NXP completed the sale of its 40% equity interest of Suzhou ASEN Semiconductors Co., Ltd. to J&R Holding Limited, receiving $127 million in cash proceeds.

On June 5, 2018, NXP completed the sale of 24% of its equity interest in WeEn to Tianjin Ruixin Semiconductor Industry Investment Centre LLP, receiving $32 million in cash proceeds. Subsequent to this sale, NXP retains a 25% equity interest in WeEn. The Company will continue to account for this investment as an equity-accounted investee.

On June 14, 2016, NXP announced an agreement to divest its Standard Products business (SP) to a consortium of financial investors consisting of Beijing JianGuang Asset Management Co., Ltd (“JAC Capital”) and Wise Road Capital LTD (“Wise Road Capital”). On February 6, 2017 we divested SP, receiving $2.6 billion in cash proceeds, net of cash divested. For a further discussion, see Note 3 “Acquisitions and Divestments”.

Results of Operations

The following table presents the composition of operating income (loss):

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

In the quarter ended September 30, 2018, revenue increased 2.4% as compared to the quarter ended October 1, 2017. Gross profit increased in the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017 primarily as a result of additional revenue fall-through and lower expenses related to purchase price accounting (see below). Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2018 were at a consistent level with the third quarter of 2017, with research and development increase year on year being driven by higher investments in research and development as well as higher merger related costs and being offset by lower spend in selling, general and administrative. Other income in the third quarter of 2018 is related to the $2 billion compensation as a result of the termination of the purchase agreement between NXP and an affiliate of Qualcomm.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

In the nine month period ended September 30, 2018, revenue increased 3.0% as compared to the nine month period ended October 1, 2017 (the latter including one month of revenue of our divested SP business). Gross profit increased in the first nine months of 2018 as compared to the first nine months of 2017 primarily as a result of improvement of our operational performance and lower expenses related to purchase price accounting (see below). Operating expenses in the first nine months of 2018 increased as compared to the first nine months of 2017 as a result of increased investments in research and development, partially offset by the reduction of the selling, general and administrative costs. Other income in the first nine months of 2018 related to the $2 billion termination compensation, whereas in the first nine months of 2017 it related to the gain on the sale of the SP business.

The table below depicts the Purchase Price Accounting (“PPA”) effects (reflecting the amortization related to the fair value adjustments resulting from the acquisition of Freescale in addition to the formation of NXP) for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and October 1, 2017, respectively, per line item in the statement of operations:

Prior to February 6, 2017, NXP was organized into two reportable segments, High Performance Mixed Signal (“HPMS”) and Standard Products (“SP”). As of February 6, 2017, the SP reportable segment was divested and HPMS remains as the sole reportable segment. Corporate and Other represents the remaining portion (or “segment”) to reconcile to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue

The following table presents revenue and revenue growth by segment for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and October 1, 2017, respectively:

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Revenue increased $58 million to $2,445 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared to $2,387 million in the third quarter of 2017, a year-on-year increase of 2.4%. Revenue derived from services to Nexperia (our former SP business) to support the separation and, on a limited basis, ongoing operations, is included in Corporate and Other. As the Nexperia business develops or acquires its own foundry and packaging capabilities, our revenue from this source is expected to decline.

Our HPMS segment saw an increase in revenue of $63 million to $2,351 million in the third quarter of 2018 compared to $2,288 million in the third quarter of 2017, resulting in a 2.8% year-on-year growth. The growth in revenue was driven primarily by increased demand in Automotive and Secure Interface & Infrastructure.

Table of Contents

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Revenue increased $204 million to $7,004 million in the first nine months of 2018 compared to $6,800 million in the first nine months of 2017, a year-on-year increase of 3.0%. Included in the first nine months of 2017 is one month of revenue for the SP business, as the business was divested on February 6, 2017. Revenue derived from services to Nexperia (our former SP business) to support the separation and, on a limited basis, ongoing operations, is included in Corporate and Other. As the Nexperia business develops or acquires its own foundry and packaging capabilities, our revenue from this source is expected to decline.

Our HPMS segment saw an increase in revenue of $313 million to $6,710 million in the first nine months of 2018 compared to $6,397 million in the first nine months of 2017, resulting in a 4.9% year-on-year growth. The growth in revenue was driven primarily by increased demand in Automotive and Secure Connected Devices, partly offset by lower sales in Secure Interface & Infrastructure due to lower market demand over the past nine months.

Gross Profit

The following table presents gross profit by segment for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and October 1, 2017, respectively:

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Gross profit in the third quarter of 2018 was $1,256 million, or 51.4% of revenue compared to $1,215 million, or 50.9% of revenue in the third quarter of 2017, an increase of $41 million. This increase was driven by higher revenue as well as lower expenses related to purchase price accounting.

Our HPMS segment had a gross profit of $1,254 million, or 53.3% of revenue in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $1,203 million, or 52.6% of revenue in the third quarter of 2017. The increase in the gross profit percentage was driven by lower expenses related to purchase price accounting as well as the continued improvement of our operational performance.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Gross profit in the first nine months of 2018 was $3,608 million, or 51.5% of revenue compared to $3,377 million, or 49.7% of revenue in the first nine months of 2017, an increase of $231 million. This increase was driven by higher revenue and the continued improvement of our operational performance, as well as lower expenses related to purchase price accounting, partly offset by the divestment of our SP business.

Our HPMS segment had a gross profit of $3,588 million, or 53.5% of revenue in the first nine months of 2018, compared to $3,299 million, or 51.6% of revenue in the first nine months of 2017. The increase in the gross profit percentage was driven by lower expenses related to purchase price accounting as well as the continued improvement of our operational performance.

Operating expenses

The following table presents operating expenses by segment for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and October 1, 2017:

The following table below presents the composition of operating expenses by line item in the statement of operations:

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2018 were at the same level as in the third quarter of 2017, amounting to $1,047 million in both periods, with research and development increasing as a result of increased investments in research and development and higher merger related costs offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative due to a continued focus on cost control.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Operating expenses increased $62 million to $3,124 million in the first nine months of 2018, compared to $3,062 million in the first nine months of 2017. The increase in operating expenses is the result of increased investments in research and development expenses, partially offset by the reduction of the selling, general and administrative costs as well as amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets.

Operating income (loss)

The following table presents operating income (loss) by segment for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2018 and October 1, 2017:

[-7]

Table of Contents

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Operating income (loss) increased $2,048 million to $2,211 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to $163 million in the third quarter of 2017. This increase in operating income (loss) is primarily the result of the $2 billion termination compensation and the items discussed above.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Operating income (loss) increased $594 million to $2,486 million in the first nine months of 2018, compared to $1,892 million in the first nine months of 2017. The amount in 2018 includes the $2 billion termination compensation in the third quarter of 2018 whereas the amount in 2017 includes the result of the realized gain on the divestment of the SP business of $1,597 million in the first quarter of 2017. The increase in our HPMS segment is the result of the items discussed above.

Financial income (expense)

The following table presents the details of financial income and expenses:

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Financial income (expense) was an expense of $119 million in the third quarter of 2018, compared to an expense of $76 million in the third quarter of 2017. The increase was the result of one time charges ($60 million) on certain financial instruments for compensation related to an adjustment event required by the termination of the Qualcomm merger agreement and the origination fees ($11 million) related to the $1 billion senior unsecured bridge term credit facility we entered into in the third quarter of 2018, partly offset by a reduction in interest expense, net, due to a repayment of debt at the beginning of the second quarter 2018 resulting in less interest expense, along with higher interest income.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Financial income (expense) was an expense of $258 million in the first nine months of 2018, compared to an expense of $287 million in the first nine months of 2017. As a result of repayment of debt in the first quarter of 2017 and the second quarter of 2018, interest expense decreased. In addition, the debt extinguishment cost related to the repayment of debt in the first nine months of 2018 were lower than the debt extinguishment cost related to repayment of debt in the first nine months of 2017, partly offset by one time charges ($60 million) on certain financial instruments for compensation related to an adjustment event required by the termination of the Qualcomm merger agreement and the origination fees ($11 million) related to the $1 billion senior unsecured bridge term credit facility we entered into in the third quarter of 2018.

Benefit (provision) for income taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted tax legislation that included changes to the taxation of foreign earnings by implementing a dividend exemption system, expansion of the current anti-deferral rules, a minimum tax on low-taxed foreign earnings and new measures to deter base erosion. The tax legislation also included a permanent reduction in the corporate tax rate to 21%, repeal of the corporate alternative minimum tax, expensing of capital investment, and limitation of the deduction for interest expense. Furthermore, as part of the transition to the new tax system, a one-time transition tax was imposed on a U.S. shareholder’s historical undistributed earnings of foreign affiliates (the “Toll Tax”).

[-8]

Table of Contents

As described in Note 7 Provision for Income Taxes in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017, we were able to reasonably estimate certain effects of the tax legislation and, therefore, recorded provisional amounts, including the mandatory repatriation Toll Tax. The Company intends to finalize the accounting for the tax effects of the tax legislation early in the fourth quarter of 2018, we have not made any material measurement period adjustments related to the provisional amounts.

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Our effective tax rate reflects the impact of tax incentives, a portion of our earnings being taxed in foreign jurisdictions at rates different than the Dutch statutory tax rate and the mix of income and losses in various jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2018 was an expense of 14.9% compared to a benefit of 34.5 % for the third quarter of 2017. The significant change in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the increase in profit before income taxes, as well as the statutory tax rate decrease in the U.S. from 35% to 21% in 2018 and the relative decrease of the benefits from tax incentives.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Our effective tax rate reflects the impact of tax incentives, a portion of our earnings being taxed in foreign jurisdictions at rates different than the Dutch statutory tax rate and the mix of income and losses in various jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate for the nine months of 2018 was an expense of 14.2% compared to 9.1% for the first nine months of 2017. The significant change in our effective tax rate was primarily due to the increase in profit before income taxes, as well as the statutory tax rate decrease in the U.S. from 35% to 21% in 2018, and the relative decrease of the benefits from tax incentives and the non-deductible expenses.

Result equity-accounted investees

Q3 2018 compared to Q3 2017

Results related to equity-accounted investees for the third quarter of 2018 included the net gain of $51 million resulting from the sale of ASEN in July 2018.

YTD 2018 compared to YTD 2017

Results related to equity-accounted investees for the first nine months of 2018 included the net gain of $51 million resulting from the sale of ASEN in July 2018.

Employees

As of September 30, 2018, we had 30,200 full-time equivalent employees (as of December 31, 2017: 30,100 full-time equivalent employees). The following table indicates the percentage of full-time equivalent employees per geographic area:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We derive our liquidity and capital resources primarily from our cash flows from operations. We continue to generate strong positive operating cash flows. At the end of the third quarter of 2018, our cash balance was $1,944 million, a decrease of $1,603 million compared to December 31, 2017. Taking into account the available amount of the Secured Revolving Credit Facility (“RCF Agreement”) of $600 million, we had access to $2,544 million of liquidity as of September 30, 2018.

We currently use cash to fund operations, meet working capital requirements, for capital expenditures and for potential common stock repurchases, dividends and strategic investments. Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our current available sources of funds (including cash and cash equivalents, RCF Agreement, plus anticipated cash generated from operations) will be adequate to finance our operations, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and potential dividends for at least the next year. Our capital expenditures were $441 million in the first nine months of 2018, compared to $419 million in the first nine months of 2017. On July 25, 2018, the Board of Directors of NXP authorized the repurchase of an additional $5 billion of the Company’s stock. Under the program, the Company may purchase its common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of shares of common stock, trading volume and general market conditions. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2018, we repurchased $4,613 million, or 49.3 million shares of our common stock pursuant to our share buyback program at a weighted average price of $93.54 per share.

On September 10, 2018, NXP announced the initiation of a Quarterly Dividend Program under which the company will pay a regular quarterly cash dividend, starting with the initial interim dividend for the third quarter of 2018 of $0.25 per ordinary share. The interim dividend was paid on October 5, 2018 to shareholders of record on September 25, 2018. During October 2018, the Board of Directors of NXP authorized the additional repurchase of approximately 15 million shares, up to the full 20 percent as approved by shareholders at the June 22, 2018 Annual General Meeting. The extended authorization, effective November 1, 2018 is above the $5 billion share repurchase program announced on July 26, 2018.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

All amounts in millions of $ unless otherwise stated

1 Basis of Presentation

We prepared our interim condensed consolidated financial statements that accompany these notes in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, consistent in all material respects with those applied in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017.

We have made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our consolidated condensed financial statements and the accompanying notes. The actual results that we experience may differ materially from our estimates. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all normal adjustments that are, in our opinion, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. This interim information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017.

On February 20, 2018, NXP entered into an amendment (the “Purchase Agreement Amendment”) to that certain Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2016 (as amended, the “Purchase Agreement”), with Qualcomm River Holdings B.V. (“Buyer”), a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of QUALCOMM Incorporated. On April 19, 2018, Buyer and NXP entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of Amendment No. 2, the End Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), which is the date that, subject to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, either Buyer or NXP would have the right to terminate the Purchase Agreement if the Offer has not been consummated on or before such date, has been extended until July 25, 2018. Amendment No. 2 also provides that, in addition to its existing rights, NXP will be entitled to receive the $2 billion Buyer Termination Compensation (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) (a) if the Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms for any reason (subject to certain exceptions) and, at the time of any such termination, approval by the applicable antitrust authorities in China, or in any jurisdiction where the parties’ previously obtained clearance will expire or where the applicable antitrust authority has required or requested a resubmission for clearance, has not been received, or (b) at any time after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on July 25, 2018 if, at such time, approval by the applicable antitrust authorities in China, or in any jurisdiction where the parties’ previously obtained clearance will expire or where the applicable antitrust authority has required or requested a resubmission for clearance, has not been received. In the event that NXP has received the Buyer Termination Compensation pursuant to clause (b) in the previous sentence, Buyer will be entitled to terminate the Purchase Agreement. Furthermore, Buyer and NXP have agreed to amend certain of the restrictions set forth in the Purchase Agreement related to the conduct and operations of NXP and its subsidiaries prior to the earlier of the termination of the Purchase Agreement and the closing of the Offer, including with respect to NXP’s ability to undertake acquisitions and settle litigation. On July 26, 2018, NXP received notice from Qualcomm Incorporated that Qualcomm had terminated, effective immediately, the Purchase Agreement following the inability to obtain the required approval for the transaction from the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR) of the People’s Republic of China prior to the End Date. On July 26, 2018, NXP received the aforementioned $2 billion Buyer Termination Compensation. On July 26, 2018, subsequent to the termination of the Purchase Agreement, the Board of Directors of NXP authorized the repurchase of an additional $5 billion of the Company’s stock. Under the program, the Company may purchase its common stock from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The amount and timing of the purchases will depend on a number of factors including the price and availability of shares of common stock, trading volume and general market conditions. At of the close of the third quarter of 2018, we have repurchased 49.3 million shares, for a total of approximately $4.6 billion.

On June 14, 2016, NXP announced an agreement to divest its Standard Products business (SP) to a consortium of financial investors consisting of Beijing JianGuang Asset Management Co., Ltd (“JAC Capital”) and Wise Road Capital LTD (“Wise Road Capital”). On February 6, 2017 we divested SP, receiving $2.6 billion in cash proceeds, net of cash divested. For a further discussion, see Note 3 “Acquisitions and Divestments”.

2 Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Significant Accounting Policies

Except for the changes below, no material changes have been made to the Company’s significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017. The accounting policy information below is to aid in the understanding of the financial information disclosed.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), effective on January 1, 2018. As a result of this adoption and the required disclosures, the Company revised its accounting policy for revenue recognition as stated below.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to customers in an amount reflecting the consideration the Company expects to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies the following five step approach: (1) identify the contract with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

The vast majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from the sale of semiconductor products to distributors, Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”) and similar customers. The Company considers customer purchase orders, which are sometimes governed by master sales agreements, to be the contract with a customer. When sales are to a distributor, the Company has concluded that its contracts are primarily with the distributor because the Company holds a contract bearing enforceable rights and obligations primarily with the distributor. As part of identifying the contract, the Company evaluates certain factors including the customer’s ability to pay (or credit risk). For each contract, the Company considers the promise to transfer products, each of which is distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. In determining the transaction price, the Company evaluates whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. Variable consideration is estimated, and this estimate is not constrained because the Company has extensive experience with these contracts. The Company’s standard payment terms are those that are customary in the geographic market and are less than one year. The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct product based on its relative standalone selling price. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer (i.e., when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment. In determining whether control has transferred, the Company considers if there is a present right to payment and legal title, and whether risks and rewards of ownership having transferred to the customer.

As allowed by ASC 606, the Company does not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for contracts, as substantially all contracts have an original expected length of one year or less. The nature of these performance obligations relates to contracts with products that have no alternative use and an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. The Company expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less.

For sales to distributors, revenue is recognized upon transfer of control to the distributor. For some distributors, contractual arrangements are in place which allow these distributors to return products if certain conditions are met. These conditions generally relate to the time period during which a return is allowed and reflect customary conditions in the particular geographic market. Other return conditions relate to circumstances arising at the end of a product life cycle, when certain distributors are permitted to return products purchased during a pre-defined period after the Company has announced a product’s pending discontinuance. These return rights are a form of variable consideration and are estimated using the most likely method based on historical return rates in order to reduce revenues recognized. However, long notice periods associated with these announcements prevent significant amounts of product from being returned. For sales where return rights exist, the Company has determined, based on historical data, that only a very small percentage of the sales of this type to distributors is actually returned. Repurchase agreements with OEMs or distributors are not entered into by the Company.

Sales to most distributors are made under programs common in the semiconductor industry whereby distributors receive certain price adjustments to meet individual competitive opportunities. These programs may include credits granted to distributors, or allow distributors to return or scrap a limited amount of product in accordance with contractual terms agreed upon with the distributor, or receive price protection credits when our standard published prices are lowered from the price the distributor paid for product still in its inventory. In determining the transaction price, the Company considers the price adjustments from these programs to be variable consideration that reduce the amount of revenue recognized. The Company’s policy is to estimate such price adjustments using the most likely method based on rolling historical experience rates, as well as a prospective view of products and pricing in the distribution channel for distributors who participate in our volume rebate incentive program. We continually monitor the actual claimed allowances against our estimates, and we adjust our estimates as appropriate to reflect trends in pricing environments and inventory levels. The estimates are also adjusted when recent historical data does not represent anticipated future activity. Historically, actual price adjustments for these programs relative to those estimated have not materially differed.

Accounting standards adopted in 2018

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), as modified by subsequently issued ASUs, which supersedes all existing revenue recognition requirements, including most industry-specific guidance. The new standard requires a company to recognize revenue when it transfers goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that the company expects to receive for those goods or services. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Comparative information for prior periods has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The cumulative effect of initially applying the new standard, excluding the impact of taxes, was an increase of $14 million to the opening balance of retained earnings, driven from the acceleration of revenue recognition for contracts with products that have no alternative use and an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. We expect the impact of the adoption to be immaterial to our net income on an ongoing basis.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (Subtopic 825-10). The new standard requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income, requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. The new standard became effective for us on January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash flow, and other Topics. ASU 2016-15 became effective for us on January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our statement of cash flows.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017-01 introduces a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated as a business. ASU 2017-01 became effective for us on January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (“net benefit cost”). The ASU requires that the service cost component be presented separately from the other components of net benefit cost. Services costs should be presented with other employee compensation costs within operations or capitalized in inventory or other assets in accordance to the company’s accounting policies. The other components of net benefit costs should be presented separately outside of a subtotal of income from operations, if one is presented. ASU 2017-07 became effective for us on January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Recently issued accounting standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Lessor accounting is similar to the current model, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. Existing sale-leaseback guidance, including guidance for real estate, is replaced with a new model applicable to both lessees and lessors. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842 Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements. ASU 2018-11 clarifies narrow aspects of Topic 842 and is not expected to have a significant effect on entities applying Topic 842. ASU 2018-11 provides entities with an additional transition method to adopt the new leases standard. Under the new transition method, an entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The new standard will be effective for us on January 1, 2019, and the Company will apply the new transition method in ASU 2018-11. The Company is currently planning to elect the package of practical expedients to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs and is evaluating other practical expedients available under the guidance. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of the standard, it currently believes the most significant impact relates to recording lease assets and related liabilities on the balance sheet.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, the one step quantitative impairment test calculates goodwill impairment as the excess of the carrying value of a reporting unit over its fair value, up to the carrying value of the goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The ASU should be applied on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvement to Accounting for Hedging Activities. ASU 2017-12 simplifies certain aspects of hedge accounting and improves disclosures of hedging arrangements through the elimination of the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. The ASU generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. Entities must apply the amendments to cash flow and net investment hedge relationships that exist on the date of adoption using a modified retrospective approach. The presentation and disclosure requirements must be applied prospectively. ASU 2017-12 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In August 2018, the FASB issued 2018-13, Fair Value measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 removes certain disclosure requirements, including the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the policy for timing of transfers between levels, and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 also adds disclosure requirements, including changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued 2018-14, Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. ASU 2018-14 removes

[-22]

disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-14 should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial statement disclosures.

In August 2018, the FASB issued 2018-15, Intangibles –Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-15 requires a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense. Therefore, a customer in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract determines which project stage an implementation activity relates to. Costs for implementation activities in the application development stage are capitalized depending on the nature of the costs, while costs incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages are expensed as the activities are performed. ASU 2018-15 also requires the customer to expense the capitalized implementation costs over the term of the hosting arrangement, and to apply the existing impairment guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to the capitalized implementation costs as if the costs were long-lived assets. ASU 2018-15 can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
