Simultaneously, Skyworks continues navigating the regulatory approval process for its planned combination with Qorvo. The transaction is currently undergoing phase two evaluation by China’s State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR).
Company leadership expressed optimism regarding a late-2026 completion, though formal timelines indicate early 2027 as more probable. Anticipated synergies of $500 million or greater remain consistent with initial projections.
Regarding profitability metrics, management highlighted increased input expenses — including expedited shipping charges and gold commodity costs — as near-term headwinds. The company’s Q3 gross margin outlook holds steady at approximately 44.5%–45.5%.
Inventory levels expanded during the period, which may create additional margin pressure depending on downstream channel demand dynamics.
