Skyworks and Qorvo semiconductor merger

Overview

Skyworks Solutions has completed its merger with Qorvo, forming a large U.S.-based semiconductor company focused on radio frequency, power management, and analog technologies. The combined entity will continue to operate under the Skyworks name.

Under the merger terms, former Qorvo shareholders received $32.50 in cash and 0.960 Skyworks common shares for each share owned. Legacy Skyworks shareholders retain approximately 63% ownership of the combined company. The company expects to achieve at least $500 million in annual cost savings following full integration, which is projected to take 24 to 36 months.

Following the merger, activist investor Starboard Value suggested that the market has undervalued Skyworks shares, noting the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the semiconductor industry through improved profitability and complementary product portfolios.
