NXP SEMICONDUCTORS N.V.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

All amounts in millions of $ unless otherwise stated

1 Basis of Presentation and Overview

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 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

We have made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated 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 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

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, 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The accounting policy information below is to aid in the understanding of the financial information disclosed.

Accounting standards recently adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 modifies ASC 740 to simplify the accounting for income taxes, removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 and amending existing guidance to improve consistent application. ASU 2019-12 became effective for us on January 1, 2021. We have assessed our current positions and the interrelation to the amendments and the adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

No other new accounting pronouncements were issued or became effective in the period that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

3 Acquisitions and Divestments

2021

There were no material acquisitions or divestments during the first six months of 2021.

2020

There were no material acquisitions during the first six months of 2020. On February 3, 2020, we completed the sale of the Company's Voice and Audio Solutions (VAS) assets, pursuant to the definitive agreement dated August 16, 2019 and which was previously classified as held for sale, with Shenzhen Goodix Technology Co., Ltd. ("Goodix") from China, for a net cash amount of $161 million inclusive of final working capital adjustments. This resulted in a gain of $110 million recorded in Other income (expense) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

5 Restructuring

At each reporting date, we evaluate our restructuring liabilities, which consist primarily of termination benefits, to ensure that our accruals are still appropriate.

The following table presents the changes in restructuring liabilities in 2021:

	As of January 1, 2021	Additions	Utilized	Released	Other changes	As of July 4, 2021
Restructuring liabilities	74	—	(25)	—	(1)	48

The restructuring charges consist of personnel lay-off costs of $1 million restructuring costs incurred for the six month period ended July 4, 2021 (June 28, 2020: $19 million).

These restructuring charges recorded in operating income, for the periods indicated, are included in the following line items in the statement of operations:

	For the three months ended		For the six months ended

6 Income Taxes

Benefit/provision for income taxes:

	For the three months ended				For the six months ended
	July 4, 2021		June 28, 2020		July 4, 2021		June 28, 2020
Tax expense (benefit)	65		(33)		105		(31)
Effective tax rate	13.7	%	13.7	%	12.0	%	12.4	%

10

Our provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2021 was $105 million (12.0% effective tax rate) compared to a benefit from income taxes of ($31 million) ((12.4%) effective tax rate) for the first six months of 2020. The increase in the income tax expense was due to higher income before income taxes, offset by the net change in the valuation allowance between the two periods and by an increase in tax incentives (both as a result of the improved operational performance of the company).

The Company benefits from income tax incentives in certain jurisdictions which provide that we pay reduced income taxes in those jurisdictions for a fixed period of time that varies depending on the jurisdiction. The predominant income tax holiday is expected to expire at the end of 2026. The impact of this tax holiday decreased foreign income taxes for the second quarter of 2021 by $3 million and decreased by $2 million for the second quarter 2020 (YTD 2021: a decrease of $7 million and YTD 2020: a decrease of $5 million). The benefit of this tax holiday on net income per share (diluted) was $0.02 for the second quarter of 2021 (YTD 2021: $0.03) and $0.01 for the second quarter of 2020 (YTD 2020: $0.02).

10 Fair Value Measurements

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

		Estimated fair value
	Fair value hierarchy	July 4, 2021	December 31, 2020
Assets:
Money market funds	1	2,008	1,469
Marketable equity securities	1	20	19
Derivative instruments-assets	2	2	18
Liabilities:
Derivative instruments-liabilities	2	(10)	—

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Investments in money market funds (as part of our cash and cash equivalents) and marketable equity securities (as part of other non-current assets) have fair value measurements which are all based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. For derivatives (as part of other current assets or accrued liabilities) the fair value is based upon significant other observable inputs depending on the nature of the derivative.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis

We measure and record our non-marketable equity securities, equity method investments and non-financial assets, such as intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, at fair value when an impairment charge is required.

Assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis

Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include non-marketable equity securities and equity method investments that have not been remeasured or impaired in the current period and debt.

As of July 4, 2021, the estimated fair value of debt, including the current portion, was $10.5 billion ($8.6 billion as of December 31, 2020). The fair value is estimated on the basis of broker-dealer quotes, which are Level 2 inputs. Accrued interest is included under accrued liabilities and not within the carrying amount or estimated fair value of debt.

11 Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

The Company maintains purchase commitments with certain suppliers, primarily for raw materials, semi-finished goods and manufacturing services and for some non-production items. Purchase commitments for inventory materials are generally restricted to a forecasted time-horizon as mutually agreed upon between the parties. This forecasted time-horizon can vary for different suppliers. As of July 4, 2021, the Company had purchase commitments of $3,769 million, which are due through 2044. Our long-term obligations increased substantially as we locked in long-term supply with our key manufacturing partners.

Litigation

We are regularly involved as plaintiffs or defendants in claims and litigation relating to a variety of matters such as contractual disputes, personal injury claims, employee grievances and intellectual property litigation. In addition, our acquisitions, divestments and financial transactions sometimes result in, or are followed by, claims or litigation. Some of these claims may possibly be recovered from insurance reimbursements. Although the ultimate disposition of asserted claims cannot be predicted with certainty, it is our belief that the outcome of any such claims, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. However, such outcomes may be material to our condensed consolidated statement of operations for a particular period. The Company records an accrual for any claim that arises whenever it considers that it is probable that it is exposed to a loss contingency and the amount of the loss contingency can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not record a gain contingency until the period in which all contingencies are resolved and the gain is realized or realizable. Legal fees are expensed when incurred.

Based on the most current information available to it and based on its best estimate, the Company also reevaluates at least on a quarterly basis the claims that have arisen to determine whether any new accruals need to be made or whether any accruals made need to be adjusted. Based on the procedures described above, the Company has an aggregate amount of $17 million accrued for potential and current legal proceedings pending as of July 4, 2021, compared to $17 million accrued at December 31, 2020. The accruals are included in “Other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities”. As of July 4, 2021, the Company’s related balance of insurance reimbursements was $8 million (December 31, 2020: $8 million) and is included in “Other current assets” and “Other non-current assets”.

13

The Company also estimates the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amount accrued based on currently available information for those cases for which such estimate can be made. The estimated aggregate range requires significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings (including the fact that many of them are currently in preliminary stages), the existence of multiple defendants (including the Company) in such claims whose share of liability has yet to be determined, the numerous yet-unresolved issues in many of the claims, and the attendant uncertainty of the various potential outcomes of such claims. Accordingly, the Company’s estimate will change from time to time, and actual losses may be more than the current estimate. As at July 4, 2021, the Company believes that for all litigation pending its potential aggregate exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued (without reduction for any amounts that may possibly be recovered under insurance programs) could range between $0 and $13 million. Based upon our past experience with these matters, the Company would expect to receive insurance reimbursement on certain of these claims that would offset the potential maximum exposure of up to $15 million.

In addition, the Company is currently assisting Motorola in the defense of personal injury lawsuits due to indemnity obligations included in the agreement that separated Freescale from Motorola in 2004. The multi-plaintiff Motorola lawsuits are pending in Cook County, Illinois. These claims allege a link between working in semiconductor manufacturing clean room facilities and birth defects in 18 individuals. The Motorola suits allege exposures between 1981 and 2005. Each claim seeks an unspecified amount of damages for the alleged injuries; however, legal counsel representing the plaintiffs has indicated they will seek substantial compensatory and punitive damages from Motorola for the entire inventory of claims which, if proven and recovered, the Company considers to be material. In the Motorola suits, a portion of any indemnity due to Motorola will be reimbursed to NXP if Motorola receives an indemnification payment from its insurance coverage. Motorola has potential insurance coverage for many of the years indicated above, but with differing types and levels of coverage, self-insurance retention amounts and deductibles. We are in discussions with Motorola and their insurers regarding the availability of applicable insurance coverage for each of the individual cases. Motorola and NXP have denied liability for these alleged injuries based on numerous defenses.

Loss recovery

In February 2021, NXP’s two wafer manufacturing facilities in Austin, Texas were negatively impacted by unusually severe winter weather conditions that corresponded with a widespread disruption of gas, electricity, and water. The Company has insurance coverage for the repair or replacement of assets that suffered damage or loss and business interruption coverage, including lost profits, and the reimbursement of other expenses and costs that have been incurred relating to the damages and losses suffered.

For the three months ended July 4, 2021, the company recognized $109 million in insurance proceeds directly offsetting the loss from operations that were incurred in the period. The Company continues to work closely with its insurance carriers and claims adjusters to ascertain the full amount of insurance recoveries due as a result of the damage and loss

12 Subsequent Events

Share Repurchases

During the period subsequent to July 4, 2021 and through August 2, 2021, we repurchased via a 10b5-1 program $1.0 billion, or 5.0 million shares of our common stock pursuant to our share buyback programs.

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

Revenue for the three months ended July 4, 2021 was $2,596 million compared to $1,817 million for the three months ended June 28, 2020, an increase of $779 million or an increase of 42.9% year-on-year. Revenue in the second quarter of 2021 represented a historical record for NXP. The strong revenue growth was a result of industry-wide growth after the initial shock and widespread market disruption caused by the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in the year ago period, combined with company specific content growth in the automotive end market as the automotive OEMs focus on secular shift due to electrification, advanced driver safety and assistance, as well as driver connectivity. Additionally, strong performance in the Industrial & IoT and Mobile markets helped to underpin the year-on-year performance.

Our gross profit percentage for the second quarter of 2021 increased from 47.3% in the second quarter of 2020 to 54.8%, primarily from the continued significant acceleration of revenue in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, which led to improved loading, cost reductions and efficiencies, offset by a less favorable product mix and higher personnel-related costs.

We continue to generate strong operating cash flows, with $636 million in cash flows from operations for the second quarter of 2021. We returned $1,358 million to our shareholders during the second quarter of 2021. Our cash position at the end of the second quarter of 2021 was $2,910 million. This includes the net proceeds of the $2 billion of senior unsecured debt issued by NXP on May 11, 2021. On May 27, 2021, the NXP Board of Directors approved a cash dividend of $0.5625 per common share for the second quarter of 2021.

In summary, demand has come back more rapidly than we expected and our focus remains on looking after our customers to ensure that we meet their demand as best as possible.

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

Revenue for the six months ended July 4, 2021 was $5,163 million compared to $3,838 million for the six months ended June 28, 2020, an increase of $1,325 million or an increase of 34.5%. The revenue level in the first six months of 2021 represented a historical record for NXP. The YTD 2021 growth compared to YTD 2020 was a result of industry-wide growth after the initial shock and widespread market disruption caused by the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with company specific content growth in the automotive end market as the automotive OEMs focus on secular shift due electrification, advanced driver safety and assistance, as well as driver connectivity. Additionally, strong performance in the Industrial & IoT and Mobile markets helped to underpin the year-on-year performance. The rebound in NXP’s

15

revenue growth began to clearly emerge at the end of the calendar third quarter of 2020, and has continued to accelerate through the second quarter of 2021.

Our gross profit percentage for the six months ended July 4, 2021 increased from 48.4% for the six months ended June 28, 2020 to 53.8%, primarily from the significant acceleration of revenue in 2021 after the Covid crisis, and as such, improved loading and manufacturing efficiencies offset by higher personnel-related cost and a less favorable product mix.

Cash flow from operations for the first six months of 2021 was $1,368 million. Total shareholder return for the first six months of 2021 was $2,368 million. Our cash position remains solid, with the net proceeds of the $2 billion in newly issued debt adding to our cash and cash equivalents.

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

Revenue for the three months ended July 4, 2021 was $2,596 million compared to $1,817 million for the three months ended June 28, 2020, an increase of $779 million or an increase of 42.9% year-on-year. The increase within the second quarter is attributed to the continued strengthening of demand, across NXP’s Automotive, Industrial IoT, and Mobile end-markets, with slight decreases in the Communications Infrastructure & Other end-market.

NXP’s revenue to distributors and direct OEM and EMS partners was $1,518 million and $1,040 million, respectively, representing increases of 43.3% and 46.1% versus the second quarter of 2020. Revenue increased across all regions.

Revenue from the Automotive end-market was $1,262 million, an increase of $588 million or 87.2% year-on-year. Within Automotive, OEMs are focused on the key functional pillars of safety, electrification and improved driver comfort to accelerate competitive differentiation. These broad functional areas are fundamentally enabled by the secular adoption of new and increased levels of semiconductor content, which is layered on top of a strong base of existing electronic content in modern automobiles. As the market leader in multiple areas of the automotive electronics architecture, NXP is positioned to benefit from the long-term secular trends. Furthermore, the increase in Automotive revenue during the second quarter of 2021 can be partially attributed to the ongoing rebound from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, which began to significantly impact NXP in the second quarter of 2020.

Revenue from the Industrial & IoT end-market was $571 million, an increase of $136 million or 31.3% year-on-year. The Industrial & IoT market is driven by the secular trend of multi-market OEMs seeking to enable secure, connected, high performance processing solutions at the edge of the network, whether it is in factory automation, smart building/smart home or the exploding plethora of connected IoT devices. The innovation in this market is being driven by thousands of relatively smaller customers, which NXP effectively services through its extended global distribution channel. Our portfolio of products consists of one of the broadest array of ARM-based processing solutions, including high performance industrial application processors, hybrid multi-core crossover processors, and low-power embedded microcontrollers. We complement our processor offerings with a variety of wide-band and narrow-band wireless connectivity products, as well as complimentary analog products including power management, analog high-speed interface devices and system security solutions. We further enable our customers with comprehensive development tools to enable embedded software and system design. Our solutions enable our customers to achieve fast time to market, flexibility to scale with processing and feature variations, allowing customers to design once, and reuse designs in multiple end-product instantiations. During the second quarter of 2021, the year-on-year increase was driven by the continued growth in demand of NXP’s cross-over and industrial edge processors, in addition to strong demand for the company’s industrial & IoT wireless connectivity, analog interface and security solutions.

Revenue from the Mobile end-market, was $347 million, an increase of $92 million or 36.1% year-on-year. The Mobile market opportunity for NXP is a result of consumer demand to securely virtualize physical payment, access and localization capabilities into a mobile wallet within modern smartphones. NXP is the market leader of embedded secure payment solutions – also known as mobile wallets – which are offered by leading smartphone OEMS. Complimenting this core mobile wallet position, NXP has introduced innovative secure auto and building access solutions leveraging ultra-wide-band (UWB) technology, embedded network provisioning and identification solutions, as well as offering a variety of embedded power and wireless charging solutions. The year-on-year increase was driven by the continued strong adoption of secure mobile wallet solutions and the increased demand for embedded power solutions. Our mobile customers are primarily serviced through our global distribution channels.

Revenue in the Communication Infrastructure and Other end-market was $416 million, a decline of $37 million or 8.2% year-on-year. The Communication Infrastructure and Other end-market is an amalgamation of three separate product portfolios, which service multiple markets, including cellular base stations; the network edge equipment, and the secure access, transit and government sponsored identification market. The year-on-year decline was due to a combination of reduced demand for multi-core processors within the mass market for network edge solutions, as well as lower shipments for smart RF antenna solutions which were impacted by the U.S. ban on sales to Huawei. These declines were partially offset by a positive rebound in RF Power products for the cellular basestation market, and improved demand for inventory tracking and secure access products.

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

Revenue for the six months ended July 4, 2021 was $5,163 million compared to $3,838 million for the six months ended June 28, 2020, an increase of $1,325 million or 34.5%. The increase within the first half 2021 is attributed to the continued strengthening of demand, across the entire NXP product portfolio.

NXP’s revenue to distributors and direct OEM and EMS partners was $2,986 million and $2,104 million, respectively, representing increases of 46.2% and 22.9% versus six months ended of 2020. Revenue increased across all regions.

Revenue from the Automotive end-market was $2,491 million, an increase of $823 million or 49.3% from $1,668 million for the six months ended June 28, 2020. During the first quarter of 2020, automotive production and end consumer demand for new vehicles began to dramatically decline, reaching a cyclical trough in the second quarter of 2020. Beginning late in the third quarter of 2020, as the global automotive OEMS and Tier-one suppliers began to reopen factories, NXP continued to benefit from a faster than expected increase in demand for its automotive products. From a channel perspective, the year-on-year increase was primarily driven by demand from the Company’s automotive customers which are serviced via its OEM customers and its global distribution partners.

Revenue from the Industrial & IoT end-market was $1,142 million for the six months ended July 4, 2021, an increase of $331 million or 40.8%. During the first half of 2021, the year-to-date- increase comparable to the first half a year ago was driven by the continued strong adoption of NXP's newest cross-over and industrial edge processors, as well as adoption of complimentary analog and security solutions. The first half 2021 growth was driven by growth and demand of NXP’s products in our connectivity solutions driven by new product introductions in our direct channel. Additionally, in the beginning half of 2020, the greater China end-market experienced the societal lock-down impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a stronger YTD 2021 when compared to YTD 2020.

Revenue from the Mobile end-market, revenue was $693 million for the six months ended July 4, 2021, an increase of $191 million or 38.0%. The first half 2021 increase compared to the first half 2020 was driven primarily by the continued adoption of secure mobile wallet solutions, and to a lesser degree increased demand for embedded mobile power solutions. The year to date increase comparison was modestly offset by the divestment of the Voice and Audio Solutions, which closed early in the first quarter of 2020. Our mobile customers are primarily serviced through our global distribution channels.

Revenue in the Communication Infrastructure and Other end-market was $837 million for the six months ended July 4, 2021, declined 20 million or 2.3% year-on-year. The first half 2021 decline compared to the first half 2020 was due to a combination of lower shipments of smart RF antenna solutions which were impacted by the U.S. ban on sales to Huawei, as well as reduced demand for secure identification, payment and access solutions, and lower demand for multi-core processors within the mass market for network edge solutions. These declines were partially offset by a positive rebound in RF Power products for the cellular basestation market, and improved demand for wireless access products.

Gross profit

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

Gross profit for the three months ended July 4, 2021 was $1,422 million, or 54.8% of revenue, compared to $860 million, or 47.3% of revenue for the three months ended June 28, 2020. The increase of $562 million was driven by higher revenue as a result of accelerating demand and as such, improved loading and manufacturing efficiencies offset by a less favorable product mix and higher personnel-related costs, including variable compensation cost.

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

Gross profit for the six months ended July 4, 2021 was $2,777 million, or 53.8% of revenue, compared to $1,857 million, or 48.4% of revenue for the six months ended June 28, 2020. The increase of $920 million was primarily driven by the significant higher revenue in the first half of 2021 compared to the first half of 2020 which is the result of accelerating demand and as such, improved loading and manufacturing efficiencies offset by higher personnel-related cost, including variable compensation cost, and a less favorable product mix.

Operating expenses

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

Operating expenses for the three months ended July 4, 2021 totaled $849 million, or 32.7% of revenue, compared to $1,004 million, or 55.3% of revenue, for the three months ended June 28, 2020.

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

Operating expenses for the six months ended July 4, 2021 totaled $1,712 million, or 33.2% of revenue, compared to $2,043 million, or 53.2% of revenue, for the six months ended June 28, 2020.

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

n R&D n SG&A n Amortization acquisition-related

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

The decrease in operating expenses was a result of the following items:

Research and development (R&D) costs primarily consist of engineer salaries and wages (including share based compensation and other variable compensation), engineering related costs (including outside services, fixed-asset, IP and other licenses related costs), shared service center costs and other pre-production related expenses. R&D costs for the three months ended July 4, 2021 increased by $74 million, or 18.4%, when compared to the three months ended June 28, 2020 driven by:

+ higher personnel-related costs, including variable compensation costs; and

- lower restructuring costs.

20

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs primarily consist of personnel salaries and wages (including share based compensation and other variable compensation), communication and IT related costs, fixed-asset related costs and sales and marketing costs (including travel expenses). SG&A costs for the three months ended July 4, 2021 increased by 12 million, or 5.4%, when compared to the three months ended June 28, 2020 mainly due to:

+ higher personnel-related costs, including variable compensation costs; and

- lower share-based compensation expenses as a result of the CEO transition in 2020.

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets decreased by $241 million, or 63.4%, when compared to the three months ended June 28, 2020 driven by:

- certain intangibles became fully amortized during 2020.

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

The decrease in operating expenses was a result of the following items:

Research and development (R&D) costs primarily consist of engineer salaries and wages (including share based compensation and other variable compensation), engineering related costs (including outside services, fixed-asset, IP and other licenses related costs), shared service center costs and other pre-production related expenses. R&D costs for the six months ended July 4, 2021 increased by $110 million, or 13.3%, when compared to the six months ended June 28, 2020 driven by:

+ higher personnel-related costs, including variable compensation costs;

- higher subsidies, offsetting research and development costs; and

- lower restructuring costs.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs primarily consist of personnel salaries and wages (including share based compensation and other variable compensation), communication and IT related costs, fixed-asset related costs and sales and marketing costs (including travel expenses). SG&A costs for the six months ended July 4, 2021 remained flat with an increase of $1 million, or 0.2%, when compared to the six months ended June 28, 2020 mainly due to:

+ higher personnel-related costs, including variable compensation costs; and

- lower share-based compensation expenses as a result of the CEO transition in 2020.

Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets decreased by $442 million, or 58.1%, when compared to the six months ended June 28, 2020 driven by:

- certain intangibles became fully amortized during 2020; and

+ an impairment charge as a result of the discontinuation of an IPR&D project.

Other income (expense)

Income and expenses derived from manufacturing service arrangements (“MSA”) and transitional service arrangements (“TSA”) that are put into place when we divest a business or activity, are included in other income (expense). These arrangements are short-term in nature and are expected to decrease as the divested business or activity becomes more established.

The following table presents the split of other income (expense) for each of the three and six month periods ended July 4, 2021 and June 28, 2020:

($ in millions)	Q2 2021	Q2 2020	YTD 2021	YTD 2020

Total	(100)	(96)	(187)	(174)

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

Financial income (expense) was an expense of $100 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to an expense of $96 million in the second quarter of 2020. The change in financial income (expense) is primarily attributable to fair value adjustments in equity-accounted investees, resulting in a loss of $4 million when compared to a profit of $2 million in the second quarter of 2020, a decrease in interest expense ($4 million) as a result of refinancing activities, a decrease in interest income ($3 million) as a result of declining interest rates and less unfavorable foreign exchange results ($4 million).

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

Financial income (expense) was an expense of $187 million in the first six months of 2021 compared to an expense of $174 million in the first six months of 2020. The change in financial income (expense) is primarily attributable to a decrease in interest income ($6 million) as a result of declining interest rate, fair value adjustments in equity-accounted investees, resulting in a loss of $2 million when compared to a profit of $2 million in the second quarter of 2020 and non-service pension cost increased by $3 million.

Benefit (provision) for income taxes

Q2 2021 compared to Q2 2020

Our provision for income taxes was $65 million (13.7% effective tax rate) for the second quarter of 2021 compared to a benefit from income taxes of ($33 million) ((13.7%) effective tax rate) for the second quarter of 2020. The increase in the income tax expense was due to higher income before income taxes, offset by the net change in the valuation allowance between the two periods (as a result of the improved operational performance of the company) and changes in certain estimates.

YTD 2021 compared to YTD 2020

Our provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2021 was $105 million (12.0% effective tax rate) compared to a benefit from income taxes of ($31 million) ((12.4%) effective tax rate) for the first six months of 2020. The increase in the income tax expense was due to higher income before income taxes, offset by the net change in the valuation allowance between the two periods and by an increase in tax incentives (both as a result of the improved operational performance of the company).

Net income (loss)

The following table presents the composition of net income for the periods reported:

($ in millions, unless otherwise stated)	Q2 2021	Q2 2020	YTD 2021	YTD 2020

Net income (loss)	406	(209)	770	(222)

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 second quarter of 2021, our cash balance was $2,910 million, an increase of $635 million compared to December 31, 2020. Taking into account the available amount of the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility of $1,500 million, we had access to $4,410 million of liquidity as of July 4, 2021.

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

22

finance our operations, working capital requirements, capital expenditures and potential dividends for at least the next twelve months. Our capital expenditures were $300 million in the first six months of 2021, compared to $218 million in the first six months of 2020. During the six month period ended July 4, 2021, we repurchased $2,108 million, or 11.2 million shares of our common stock pursuant to our share buyback programs at a weighted average price of $188.43 per share.

Our total debt amounted to $9,591 million as of Q2 2021, an increase of $1,982 million compared to December 31, 2020 ($7,609 million). On May 11, 2021, NXP issued 2.5% senior notes due in 2031 ($1 billion) and 3.25% senior notes due in 2041 ($1 billion). The net proceeds of the 2.5% Senior Notes due 2031 ("2031 Notes") will be used to finance certain eligible green projects. Pending the allocation of an amount equal to the net proceeds of the 2031 Notes to finance these eligible green projects, the net proceeds of the 2031 Notes, together with the net proceeds of the 3.25% Senior Notes due 2041, will temporarily be held as cash and other short-term securities or used for general corporate purposes, which may include capital expenditures, short-term debt repayment or equity buyback transactions.

At July 4, 2021, our cash balance was $2,910 million of which $206 million was held by SSMC, our consolidated joint venture company with TSMC. Under the terms of our joint venture agreement with TSMC, a portion of this cash can be distributed by way of a dividend to us, but 38.8% of the dividend will be paid to our joint venture partner. During the first six months of 2021, no dividend was declared by SSMC. In 2020, $90 million has been declared by SSMC, distributed subsequent to the end of the second quarter of 2020, with 38.8% being paid to our joint venture partner.

Cash flows

Our cash and cash equivalents during the first six months of 2021 decreased by $638 million (excluding the effect of changes in exchange rates on our cash position of $(3) million) as follows:

($ in millions, unless otherwise stated)	YTD 2021	YTD 2020
Net cash provided by (used for) operating activities	1,368	926
Net cash (used for) provided by investing activities	(370)	(150)
Net cash provided by (used for) financing activities	(360)	1,454
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	638	2,230

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

For the first six months of 2021 our operating activities provided $1,368 million in cash. This was primarily the result of net income of $770 million, adjustments to reconcile the net income of $851 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of ($252) million. Adjustments to net income (loss) includes offsetting non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization of $646 million, share-based compensation of $184 million and changes in deferred taxes of $12 million.

The change in operating assets and liabilities (working capital accounts) was attributable to the following:

The $230 million increase in receivables and other current assets was primarily driven by the $2 million increase in income tax receivable and $227 million increase in accounts receivable due to the linearity of revenue between the two periods, customer mix, and the related timing of cash collections in the first six months of 2021 compared with the same period in 2020.

The $86 million increase in inventories was primarily related to increased production levels in order to attempt to align inventory on hand with the current revenue forecasts.

The $124 million increase in accounts payable and other liabilities for the six months ended July 4, 2021 was primarily related to the increase in the accrual for variable compensation of $131 million as a result of improved operating results, $176 million in trade accounts payable as a result of increased demand, and $10 million in interest payable; partially offset by the decrease of $15 million in lease liabilities, $70 million related to income and social tax payables, a $26 million reduction in restructuring liabilities, and $82 million of other net movements including the non-cash adjustment for capital expenditures and purchased IP.

For the first six months of 2020 our operating activities provided $926 million in cash. This was primarily the result of net loss of ($222) million, adjustments to reconcile the net loss of $1,034 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $113 million. Adjustments to net loss includes offsetting non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization of $1,083 million, share-based compensation of $212 million, amortization of the discount (premium) on debt and debt issuance costs of $3 million, a gain on sale of assets of ($110) million, results relating to equity-accounted investees of $2 million and changes in deferred taxes of ($156) million.

23

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities amounted to $370 million for the first six months of 2021 and principally consisted of the cash outflows for capital expenditures of $300 million and $72 million for the purchase of identified intangible assets, partly offset by net proceeds of $2 million related to sales and purchases of investments.

Net cash used for investing activities amounted to $150 million for the first six months of 2020 and principally consisted of the cash outflows for purchases of interests in businesses (net of cash) of $21 million, capital expenditures of $218 million and $73 million for the purchase of identified intangible assets, partly offset by proceeds of $161 million from the sale of businesses (net of cash), related to the the sale of our Voice and Audio Solutions assets.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

Net cash used for financing activities was $360 million for the first six months of 2021 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $1,454 million for the first six months of 2020, detailed in the table below:

($ in millions)	YTD 2021	YTD 2020

Contractual Obligations

The Company maintains purchase commitments with certain suppliers, primarily for raw materials, semi-finished goods and manufacturing services and for some non-production items. As of July 4, 2021, the Company had purchase commitments of $3,769 million, which are due through 2044.

($ in millions)	Total	2021	2022	2023	2024	2025	2026 and thereafter
Long-term purchase obligations	3,769	519	918	609	481	480	762

Our long-term obligations increased substantially as we locked in long-term supply with our key manufacturing partners.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

At the end of the second quarter of 2021, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements other than commitments resulting from normal business operations. None of these arrangements has or is likely to have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 2.    Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

In March 2021, the board of directors of NXP (the “Board”) approved a new $2 billion 2021 share repurchase program. The new $2 billion share repurchase authorization is in addition to the remaining amount for repurchase under the 2019 share repurchase program, authorized by the Board in November 2019. In addition, the Company purchases shares from participants in the Company’s equity programs who trade shares as trade for taxes. Under Dutch tax law, the repurchase of a company’s shares by an entity domiciled in the Netherlands results in a taxable event, unless a tax exemption applies. The tax on the repurchased shares is attributed to the shareholders, with NXP making the payment on the shareholders’ behalf. As such, the tax on the repurchased shares is accounted for within stockholders’ equity.

The following share repurchase activity occurred under these programs during the three months ended July 4, 2021:

Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid per Share	Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Buy Back Programs	Maximum Number of Shares That May Yet Be Purchased Under the Buy Back Program	Number of Shares Purchased as Trade for Tax (1)

Effective tax rate	13.7	%	13.7	%	12.0	%	12.4	%

Our provision for income taxes for the first six months of 2021 was $105 million (12.0% effective tax rate) compared to a benefit from income taxes of ($31 million) ((12.4%) effective tax rate) for the first six months of 2020. The increase in the income tax expense was due to higher income before income taxes, offset by the net change in the valuation allowance between the two periods and by an increase in tax incentives (both as a result of the improved operational performance of the company).

The Company benefits from income tax incentives in certain jurisdictions which provide that we pay reduced income taxes in those jurisdictions for a fixed period of time that varies depending on the jurisdiction. The predominant income tax holiday is expected to expire at the end of 2026. The impact of this tax holiday decreased foreign income taxes for the second quarter of 2021 by $3 million and decreased by $2 million for the second quarter 2020 (YTD 2021: a decrease of $7 million and YTD 2020: a decrease of $5 million). The benefit of this tax holiday on net income per share (diluted) was $0.02 for the second quarter of 2021 (YTD 2021: $0.03) and $0.01 for the second quarter of 2020 (YTD 2020: $0.02).

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of our financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

		Estimated fair value
	Fair value hierarchy	July 4, 2021	December 31, 2020
Assets:
Money market funds	1	2,008	1,469
Marketable equity securities	1	20	19
Derivative instruments-assets	2	2	18
Liabilities:
Derivative instruments-liabilities	2	(10)	—

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Investments in money market funds (as part of our cash and cash equivalents) and marketable equity securities (as part of other non-current assets) have fair value measurements which are all based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. For derivatives (as part of other current assets or accrued liabilities) the fair value is based upon significant other observable inputs depending on the nature of the derivative.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis

We measure and record our non-marketable equity securities, equity method investments and non-financial assets, such as intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, at fair value when an impairment charge is required.

Assets and liabilities not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis

Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include non-marketable equity securities and equity method investments that have not been remeasured or impaired in the current period and debt.

As of July 4, 2021, the estimated fair value of debt, including the current portion, was $10.5 billion ($8.6 billion as of December 31, 2020). The fair value is estimated on the basis of broker-dealer quotes, which are Level 2 inputs. Accrued interest is included under accrued liabilities and not within the carrying amount or estimated fair value of debt.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure

Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase Commitments

The Company maintains purchase commitments with certain suppliers, primarily for raw materials, semi-finished goods and manufacturing services and for some non-production items. Purchase commitments for inventory materials are generally restricted to a forecasted time-horizon as mutually agreed upon between the parties. This forecasted time-horizon can vary for different suppliers. As of July 4, 2021, the Company had purchase commitments of $3,769 million, which are due through 2044. Our long-term obligations increased substantially as we locked in long-term supply with our key manufacturing partners.

Litigation

We are regularly involved as plaintiffs or defendants in claims and litigation relating to a variety of matters such as contractual disputes, personal injury claims, employee grievances and intellectual property litigation. In addition, our acquisitions, divestments and financial transactions sometimes result in, or are followed by, claims or litigation. Some of these claims may possibly be recovered from insurance reimbursements. Although the ultimate disposition of asserted claims cannot be predicted with certainty, it is our belief that the outcome of any such claims, either individually or on a combined basis, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position. However, such outcomes may be material to our condensed consolidated statement of operations for a particular period. The Company records an accrual for any claim that arises whenever it considers that it is probable that it is exposed to a loss contingency and the amount of the loss contingency can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not record a gain contingency until the period in which all contingencies are resolved and the gain is realized or realizable. Legal fees are expensed when incurred.

Based on the most current information available to it and based on its best estimate, the Company also reevaluates at least on a quarterly basis the claims that have arisen to determine whether any new accruals need to be made or whether any accruals made need to be adjusted. Based on the procedures described above, the Company has an aggregate amount of $17 million accrued for potential and current legal proceedings pending as of July 4, 2021, compared to $17 million accrued at December 31, 2020. The accruals are included in “Other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities”. As of July 4, 2021, the Company’s related balance of insurance reimbursements was $8 million (December 31, 2020: $8 million) and is included in “Other current assets” and “Other non-current assets”.

The Company also estimates the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amount accrued based on currently available information for those cases for which such estimate can be made. The estimated aggregate range requires significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings (including the fact that many of them are currently in preliminary stages), the existence of multiple defendants (including the Company) in such claims whose share of liability has yet to be determined, the numerous yet-unresolved issues in many of the claims, and the attendant uncertainty of the various potential outcomes of such claims. Accordingly, the Company’s estimate will change from time to time, and actual losses may be more than the current estimate. As at July 4, 2021, the Company believes that for all litigation pending its potential aggregate exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued (without reduction for any amounts that may possibly be recovered under insurance programs) could range between $0 and $13 million. Based upon our past experience with these matters, the Company would expect to receive insurance reimbursement on certain of these claims that would offset the potential maximum exposure of up to $15 million.

In addition, the Company is currently assisting Motorola in the defense of personal injury lawsuits due to indemnity obligations included in the agreement that separated Freescale from Motorola in 2004. The multi-plaintiff Motorola lawsuits are pending in Cook County, Illinois. These claims allege a link between working in semiconductor manufacturing clean room facilities and birth defects in 18 individuals. The Motorola suits allege exposures between 1981 and 2005. Each claim seeks an unspecified amount of damages for the alleged injuries; however, legal counsel representing the plaintiffs has indicated they will seek substantial compensatory and punitive damages from Motorola for the entire inventory of claims which, if proven and recovered, the Company considers to be material. In the Motorola suits, a portion of any indemnity due to Motorola will be reimbursed to NXP if Motorola receives an indemnification payment from its insurance coverage. Motorola has potential insurance coverage for many of the years indicated above, but with differing types and levels of coverage, self-insurance retention amounts and deductibles. We are in discussions with Motorola and their insurers regarding the availability of applicable insurance coverage for each of the individual cases. Motorola and NXP have denied liability for these alleged injuries based on numerous defenses.

Loss recovery

In February 2021, NXP’s two wafer manufacturing facilities in Austin, Texas were negatively impacted by unusually severe winter weather conditions that corresponded with a widespread disruption of gas, electricity, and water. The Company has insurance coverage for the repair or replacement of assets that suffered damage or loss and business interruption coverage, including lost profits, and the reimbursement of other expenses and costs that have been incurred relating to the damages and losses suffered.

For the three months ended July 4, 2021, the company recognized $109 million in insurance proceeds directly offsetting the loss from operations that were incurred in the period. The Company continues to work closely with its insurance carriers and claims adjusters to ascertain the full amount of insurance recoveries due as a result of the damage and loss

We have assessed our current positions and the interrelation to the amendments and the adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

No other new accounting pronouncements were issued or became effective in the period that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
