BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On January 10, 2012, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Advanced Analogic Technologies, Incorporated ("AATI") for a total purchase price of approximately $200.0 million in cash, net of cash acquired. AATI is an analog semiconductor company focused on enabling energy-efficient devices for consumer electronics, computing and communications markets. This acquisition expands Skyworks’ portfolio with highly complementary analog semiconductor products including battery chargers, DC/DC converters, voltage regulators and LED drivers. Due to the timing of the acquisition and its proximity to the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company has omitted the majority of the disclosures required under ASC 805 - Business Combinations ("ASC 805")as the initial accounting is incomplete.
