Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

On February 21, 2025, the Company became a standalone publicly traded company, and the Company’s financial statements are now presented on a consolidated basis. Prior to the separation, the Company’s historical consolidated financial information was derived from WDC’s consolidated financial statements and accounting records and prepared as if the Company existed on a standalone basis. The financial statements for all periods presented, including the historical results of the Company prior to February 21, 2025, are now referred to as “Consolidated Financial Statements” and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the policies and practices that are generally accepted in the industry in which it operates.

Periods Prior to the Separation

Prior to the separation on February 21, 2025, the Company was an operating segment of WDC. Consequently, standalone interim financial statements were not historically prepared for the Company. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared based upon WDC’s historical consolidated interim financial statements and accounting records. They were presented on a standalone basis as if the Company’s operations had been conducted independently from WDC. The Company utilized allocations and carve-out methodologies to prepare these historic Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included the historical results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of the Company and were prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the Company has adopted accounting policies and practices generally accepted in the industry in which it operates.

Intercompany transactions were eliminated, with the exception of balances associated with lending arrangements reflected within Notes due to (from) Western Digital Corporation in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, transactions between the Company and WDC were generally considered to be effectively settled in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements at the time the transactions were recorded. The total net effect of the settlement of these transactions was reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as a financing activity and in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as Net investment from Western Digital Corporation. General financing activities included the net impact of any cash movements resulting from WDC’s centralized treasury cash management.

The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income included all revenues and costs directly attributable to the Company as well as an allocation of expenses related to facilities, functions, and services provided by WDC. Allocation of general corporate expenses from WDC included, but was not limited to, executive management, finance, tax, legal, information technology, employee benefits administration, treasury, risk management, procurement, and other shared services. These corporate expenses were allocated to the Company based on direct usage or benefit, where identifiable, with the remainder allocated based on headcount, revenue, or other relevant measures. The allocated costs were deemed to be settled between the Company and WDC in the period in which the expense was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows present these corporate expenses as cash flows from operating activities, as these costs were incurred by WDC on the Company’s behalf. The Company considers these allocations to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services by, or the benefits provided to, the Company. The allocations may not, however, reflect the expense the Company would have incurred as a standalone company for the periods presented. Additionally, these costs may not be indicative of the expenses that the Company will incur in the future or would have incurred if the Company had obtained these services from an unrelated third party. It is not practicable to estimate the actual costs that would have been incurred had the Company been a standalone company during the periods presented. The actual costs that may have been incurred would depend on a number of factors, including the chosen organizational structure, whether functions were outsourced or performed by employees, and decisions with respect to areas such as facilities, information technology, and operating infrastructure.

WDC maintains various stock-based compensation plans at a corporate level. Employees of the Company participated in those programs, and a portion of the compensation cost associated with those plans was included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Before the spin-off, stock-based compensation expense was included within Net investment from Western Digital Corporation. The amounts presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of future awards and may not reflect the results that the Company would have experienced as a standalone entity.

Current and deferred income taxes and related tax expenses were determined based on the standalone results of the Company by applying Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes, to the Company’s operations in each country as if it were a separate taxpayer (i.e., following the “Separate Return Methodology”).

Periods Post Separation

After the separation on February 21, 2025, the Company’s financial statements for the period from February 22, 2025, through October 3, 2025 are Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements based on the Company’s reported results as a standalone company. All transactions and accounts between controlled entities within the Company have been eliminated.

Following the separation, certain functions continue to be provided by or for WDC for up to fifteen months under the TSA or are being performed using the Company’s own resources or third-party service providers. As of October 3, 2025, charges under the TSA were not material.

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The Company has prepared the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and, in management’s opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s operations, financial position, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes for the year ended June 27, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K

Basis of Consolidation

Basis of Consolidation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The accounts of these foreign subsidiaries have been remeasured using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency. Gains or losses resulting from the remeasurement of these accounts from local currencies into U.S. dollars were immaterial to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries for which the functional currency is the local currency are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and a weighted average exchange rate for each period for statement of operations items. Translation adjustments are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, a component of shareholders’ equity.

Unless otherwise noted, all figures within the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are stated in U.S. dollars.

Fiscal Year

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Friday nearest to June 30 and typically consists of 52 weeks. Approximately every five to six years, the Company reports a 53-week fiscal year to align the fiscal year with the foregoing policy. Fiscal year 2025, which ended on June 27, 2025, was comprised of 52 weeks, with all quarters consisting of 13 weeks. Fiscal year 2026 will be comprised of 53 weeks and will end on July 3, 2026, with the first fiscal quarter consisting of 14 weeks. Unless otherwise indicated, references herein to specific years and quarters are to fiscal years and fiscal quarters, and references to financial information are on a condensed consolidated basis.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

The Company develops, manufactures, markets, and sells data storage devices and solutions based on NAND flash technology in the U.S. and in foreign countries through its sales personnel, dealers, distributors, retailers, and subsidiaries. The Company manages and reports its business operations under a single reportable operating segment. Operating segments are components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and are evaluated regularly by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Chief Executive Officer, who is the CODM, evaluates the performance of the Company and makes resource allocation decisions for its single reportable operating segment based upon the Company’s condensed consolidated net income. The CODM considers variances of actual performance to forecasted amounts when making decisions. Asset information is not used by the CODM to evaluate performance or allocate resources.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

Management has made estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of certain assets and liabilities in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions have been applied using methodologies that are consistent throughout the periods presented, with consideration given to the potential impacts of current macroeconomic conditions, including the evolving impacts from tariffs. However, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Business Separation Costs

Business Separation Costs

The Company has incurred separation and transition costs related to the completion of its separation from WDC. The separation and transition costs are recorded within Business separation costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which expands segment reporting requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures surrounding significant segment expenses. This ASU expands on existing segment reporting requirements to require that a public entity disclose, on an annual and interim basis, significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to an entity’s CODM, a description of other segment items by reportable segment, and any additional measures of a segment’s profit or loss used by the CODM when deciding how to allocate resources. The Company adopted the guidance retrospectively in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. See Note 9, Segment Reporting, for additional disclosures.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” This ASU calls for enhanced income tax disclosure requirements surrounding the tabular rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The Company is currently compiling the information required for these disclosures. These incremental disclosures will be required beginning with the Company’s financial statements for the year ending July 3, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to provide any required disclosures at that time.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,” which is intended to improve disclosures about the expenses of public entities. This ASU requires more detailed information about the types of expenses in commonly presented expense captions (such as cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses) and requires public entities to disclose, on an annual and interim basis, the amounts of expenses included in each relevant expense caption presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations, in a tabular format. Additionally, public entities will be required to disclose a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, the total amount of selling expenses, and, in annual reporting periods, the definition of selling expenses. This ASU is effective on either a prospective or retrospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently compiling the information required for these disclosures and assessing the basis of adoption. The Company expects to provide any required disclosures for annual reporting periods included in the Company’s financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2028.

Fair Value Measurements and Investments

Financial assets and liabilities that are remeasured and reported at fair value at each reporting period are classified and disclosed in one of the following three levels:

Level 1.    Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2.    Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3.    Inputs that are unobservable for the asset or liability and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
