7.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Product Warranties and Rework

 

The Company generally provides either a one- or two-year warranty against defects in materials and workmanship and will repair the products, provide replacements at no charge to customers or issue a refund. As they are considered assurance-type warranties, the Company does not account for them as separate performance obligations. The Company accrues for warranty and rework costs upon evaluation of customer specific claims. Historically, the Company’s warranty obligations and rework costs associated with product-related claims have not been material. The estimated amount of product warranty and rework liabilities was $12.2 million and $10.1 million for the periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

 

Purchase Commitments

 

The Company has outstanding purchase obligations with its suppliers and other parties that require the purchases of goods or services. The purchase obligations primarily consist of wafer and other inventory purchases, assembly and other manufacturing services, construction of manufacturing and R&D facilities, purchases of production and other equipment, and license arrangements.

Litigation

 

The Company is a party to actions and proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including challenges to the enforceability or validity of its intellectual property, claims that the Company’s products infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, and employment matters. The Company is also subject to litigation initiated by its stockholders. These proceedings often involve complex questions of fact and law and may require the expenditure of significant funds and the diversion of other resources to prosecute and defend. The Company defends itself vigorously against any such claims. Based on current information, the Company does not believe that a material loss from known matters is probable as of March 31, 2026.
