Changes in global trade, in particular the escalation and imposition of new and higher tariffs and additional export controls, could reduce demand for end products that incorporate our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenue and operating results. Further, increased tariffs or the imposition of other barriers to international trade could place pressure on our prices as our customers seek to offset the impact of increased tariffs on them. Compliance with import and export controls could impair our ability to compete in international markets or subject us to liability if we violate these controls.

Although power supplies using our products are designed and distributed worldwide, most of these power supplies are manufactured by our customers in Asia. As a result, our business is subject to risks related to tariffs and other trade protection measures put in place by the United States or other countries, as well as evolving international trade relations, including but not limited to those between the U.S., China, countries in the APAC region and the EU.

During the year 2025, the United States government imposed and threatened significant additional tariffs on goods imported into the U.S. from most of its trading partners, and, in response, multiple countries imposed or threatened retaliatory tariffs and other actions. Trade tensions between the U.S. and China have escalated and may continue to escalate, including the U.S. increasing tariffs on goods originating in China and China increasing tariffs on goods originating in the U.S. Changes in trade policies and a heightened risk of further increased tariffs or other barriers to international trade could further decrease international demand as many of our customers sell products incorporating our products into international markets.

Existing or future tariffs proposed or imposed on our customers’ products may adversely affect our gross profit margins in the future due to the potential for increased pressure on our selling prices by customers seeking to offset the impact of tariffs on their own products or other products that they purchase. In addition, tariffs could make our customers’ products less attractive relative to products offered by their competitors, that may not be subject to, or as significantly impacted by, similar tariffs. Further or sustained increases in tariffs on imported goods or the failure to resolve current or new international trade disputes could further decrease demand and have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. Even if we are able to take measures to mitigate the impacts of existing or future tariffs, there is no guarantee that our efforts will be successful, or that we will be able to fully mitigate such impacts.

Resulting trade disputes, trade restrictions, tariffs and other political tensions between the U.S. and other countries or among countries may also exacerbate unfavorable macroeconomic conditions including inflationary pressures, foreign exchange volatility, financial market instability, and economic recessions or downturns, which may also negatively impact customer demand for our products or services, delay purchases or renewals, limit our ability to obtain equipment, components or raw materials, limit expansion opportunities with customers, limit our access to capital, or otherwise negatively affect our business and operations. Ongoing tariff, trade restrictions and macroeconomic uncertainty also has and may continue to contribute to volatility in the price of our common stock.

In some cases, our products and power supplies using our products are subject to import and export control laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce and trade and economic sanctions, including those administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. As such, licenses and notices may be required to import, export, or re-export our products and power supplies using our products to certain countries and end users or for certain end uses. The process for obtaining necessary licenses or making required notices may be time-consuming or unsuccessful, potentially causing delays in sales or losses of sales opportunities. Trade controls are complex and dynamic regimes and monitoring and ensuring compliance can be challenging. Failure to adhere to such rules and regulations can result in the incurrence of fines, loss of import or export privileges, seizure of products, loss of reputation and other penalties, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, sales and earnings. A change in laws and regulations could restrict our ability to transfer products to previously permitted countries, customers, distributors or others. It is also possible that evolving U.S. export controls may encourage non-U.S. governments to request that our customers purchase from companies not subject to U.S. export controls, thereby harming our business, market position, and financial results. Excessive export controls increase the risk of investing in U.S. semiconductor products, because by the time a new product is ready for market, it may be subject to

new unilateral export controls restricting its sale. At the same time, such controls may increase investment in foreign competitors, which would be less likely to be restricted by U.S. controls.

Furthermore, compliance with import and export controls and implementation of additional tariffs may increase regulatory compliance costs and further affect our business and operating results.

Unfavorable or uncertain market conditions and risks relating to the adoption, use or application of emerging technologies, including AI, by our customers and in our business, may impact financial results and could result in reputational and financial harm and liability. The adoption of AI solutions and other emerging technologies may not develop in the manner or in the time periods we anticipate, and as these markets are still developing and continue to evolve, demand for products and solutions related to or that support such technologies may be unpredictable and may vary significantly from one period to another. In addition, market enthusiasm and capital spending for AI-related infrastructure and applications may be cyclical or volatile. If customers or end markets materially reduce, delay or redirect spending (including due to macroeconomic conditions, budget constraints, changes in technology architectures, a perceived overbuild of AI capacity or other unanticipated reasons), demand for our products could be adversely affected.

These markets may also not develop as anticipated if AI training and inference costs drop materially due to customer adoption of less expensive alternative technologies or approaches, or if customers achieve desired performance using alternative solutions that reduce the need for certain components. Even if these markets evolve in the manner we anticipate, if we do not have timely, competitively priced and market-accepted products available to meet customer needs in these areas, we may miss significant opportunities business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Additionally, we compete with major domestic and international semiconductor companies, many of which have greater market recognition and substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution and other resources than we do. In addition, some governments, such as China, may provide, or have provided and may continue to provide, significant assistance financial or otherwise, to some of our competitors, or to new entrants, and may intervene in support of national industries and/or competitors, including to try to disrupt the U.S. semiconductor industry. The semiconductor industry has experienced significant consolidation in recent years which has resulted in several of our competitors becoming much larger in terms of revenue, product offerings and scale. We may be unable to compete successfully in the future, which could harm our business.

We have experienced in the past, and may experience in the future, competitive pricing pressures on our products. We may be unable to maintain average selling prices due to increased pricing pressure, including as a result of actions taken by foreign governments such as China to favor companies located in their own country, which could adversely impact our operating results.

We, and our competitors, seek to improve yields, which could result in significant increases in worldwide supply and downward pressure on prices. Increases in worldwide supply of semiconductor products, if not accompanied by commensurate increases in demand, could lead to declines in average selling prices for our products, and could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

Additionally, certain materials are primarily available in a limited number of countries, including rare earth elements, minerals, and metals. Trade disputes, geopolitical tensions, economic circumstances, transit disruptions, political conditions, or public health issues, may limit our ability to obtain materials or equipment. Although rare earth and other materials are generally available from multiple suppliers, China is the predominant producer of certain of these materials. If China were to restrict or stop exporting these materials, our suppliers' ability to obtain such supply may be constrained and we may be unable to obtain sufficient quantities, or obtain supply in a timely manner, or at a commercially reasonable cost. Constrained supply of rare earth elements, minerals, and metals may restrict our ability to manufacture certain of our products and make it difficult or impossible to compete with other semiconductor memory manufacturers who are able to obtain sufficient quantities of these materials from China or other countries.

Changes in our management team can also disrupt our business and adversely affect our results of operations, given the lengthy sales cycle for our products and the large capital investments over a long time period required for our operations. We have had a number of changes in our senior leadership team in recent years, including, for example, the retirement of our former chief executive officer and the departure of our former chief financial officer in 2025. To the extent we do not effectively hire, onboard, retain, and motivate key employees and leadership, our business may be harmed.

We may incur higher than expected expenses or not realize the expected benefits, or any benefits, of restructuring initiatives designed to reduce costs and create a more efficient organization. We have pursued in the past and may pursue in the future restructuring initiatives designed to reduce costs and create a more efficient organization to support our business, including reductions in our workforce or relocating certain operations. Any restructuring initiatives could result in potential adverse effects on employee capabilities; our continued ability to recruit, hire, retain and motivate highly skilled personnel; our ability to maintain and grow our customer base; or our ability to effectively operate other aspects of our business. Adverse effects of our restructuring activities could lead to additional costs, harm our efficiency or impact our ability to effectively operate our business. In addition, we may be unsuccessful in our efforts to realign our organizational structure and shift our investments. The potential negative impact of restructuring efforts on our business may have a material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The power supply industry routinely experiences cyclical market patterns and our products are used across different end markets. A significant downturn in the industry or in any of these end markets could cause a meaningful reduction in demand for our products and adversely affect our operating results. The power supply industry is highly cyclical and subject to downturns, such as we have recently seen, and our revenue and gross margin can fluctuate significantly due to such downturns. These downturns can be severe and prolonged and can result in price erosion and weak demand for our products. Weak demand for our products resulting from general economic conditions affecting the end markets we serve, or the power supply industry specifically, and reduced spending by our customers can result, and in the past has resulted, in diminished product demand, high inventory levels, erosion of average selling prices, excess and obsolete inventories and corresponding inventory write-downs. Our expense levels are based, in part, on our expectations of future sales. Many of our expenses, particularly those relating to facilities, capital equipment, and other overhead, are relatively fixed. We might be unable to reduce spending quickly enough to compensate for reductions in sales. Accordingly, shortfalls in sales could adversely affect our operating results. Furthermore, any significant upturn in the power supply industry could result in increased competition for access to raw materials and third-party service providers.

Additionally, our products are used across different end markets, and demand for our products is difficult to predict and may vary within or among our end markets. Our target markets may not grow or develop as we currently expect, and demand may increase or change in one or more of our end markets, and changes in demand may reduce our revenue, lower our gross margin and effect our operating results. Any deterioration in these end markets, reductions in the magnitude of revenue streams, our inability to meet design and pricing requirements, or volatility in demand for our products could lead to a reduction in our revenue and adversely affect our operating results. Our success in our end markets depends on many factors, including the strength or financial performance of the customers in our end markets, our ability to timely meet rapidly changing product requirements, market needs, and our ability to maintain design wins across different markets and customers to dampen the effects of market volatility. The dynamics of the markets in which we operate make prediction of and timely reaction to such events difficult.

In addition, expectations and front-loaded investment related to AI may increase the magnitude and volatility of industry cycles, making downturns more abrupt or recoveries more uneven. Recent industry investment and customer spending patterns have been influenced by heightened interest in AI and AI-related applications. To the extent that current levels of investment in AI-related infrastructure, products, or end-market demand reflect expectations that are not ultimately realized, or if customer spending related to AI moderates, is delayed, or declines more rapidly than anticipated, the industry could experience an accelerated or more pronounced downturn.

Due to these and other factors, our past results may not be reliable predictors of our future results. If we are unable to accomplish any of the foregoing, or to offset the volatility of cyclical changes in the power supply industry or our end markets through diversification into other markets, these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

In addition, to the extent we are not able to keep our products away from unintended markets, demand and pricing dynamics can become distorted in our distributor channel and certain geographies, which could adversely affect our revenue. Further, customers purchasing our products on unintended markets may use our products for purposes for which they were not intended, or may purchase counterfeit or substandard products, for instance that have been altered or damaged, which could harm our business and cause our reputation to be adversely affected.

Additionally, the heightened worldwide awareness regarding climate change could also result in risks such as shifting customer preferences. Changing customer preferences may result in increased expectations regarding our solutions, products, and services, including the use of packaging materials and other components in our products and their environmental impact. These expectations may cause us to incur additional costs or make other changes to our operations to respond to them, which could adversely affect our financial results. If we fail to manage transition risks and customer expectations in an effective manner, customer demand for our solutions, products, and services could diminish, and our profitability could suffer. Concerns over climate change, as well as the adoption of new laws or regulations, may also impact market dynamics and may result in shifts in customer expectations, preferences, or requirements, which may require us to change our practices or incur increased costs or adversely impact customer demand for our products and services.

We have been and may be subject to or involved in litigation, threatened litigation or other disputes, the outcome of which may be difficult to predict, and which may be costly to defend, divert management attention, require us to pay damages or other payments, or restrict the operation of our business. From time to time, we have been and may be subject to disputes and litigation, with and without merit, that may be costly and which may divert the attention of our management and our resources in general. Such disputes and litigation are various and may include, but are not limited to, indemnification claims, claims of alleged infringement of patents, trademarks, copyrights and other IP rights, claims of alleged non-compliance with contract provisions and claims related to alleged violations of laws and regulations. The results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. Moreover, complaints filed against us may not specify the amount of damages that plaintiffs seek, and we therefore may be unable to estimate the possible range of damages that might be incurred should these lawsuits be resolved against us. Even if we are able to estimate losses related to these actions, the ultimate amount of loss may be materially higher than our estimates. Any resolution of litigation, threatened litigation, or other disputes, could involve the payment of damages, payments or expenses by us, which may be significant or involve an agreement with terms that restrict the operation of our business. Even if any future lawsuits are not resolved against us, the costs of defending such lawsuits may be significant. It is possible that we will not be able to obtain insurance coverage for our litigation and disputes in the amounts and for the risks we seek at policy costs and terms we desire.

Allegations made in the course of legal proceedings may also harm our reputation, regardless of whether there is merit to such claims. We can provide no assurance that additional litigation will not be filed against us in the future. The impacts of litigation, threatened litigation or other disputes could be harmful to our business and results of operations.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA included provisions modifying the corporate income tax code, including the immediate expensing of domestic research and development expenditures for tax purposes, 100% bonus depreciation for qualified assets, and an increase in the statutory tax rate on foreign earnings from 10.5% to 12.6% effective in the fiscal year 2026. The Company elected to account for Net Controlled Foreign Corporation Tested Income (“NCTI”), formerly known as Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income, under the deferred method. The deferred tax amounts recorded are based on the evaluation of temporary differences that are expected to reverse as NCTI is incurred in future periods. As a result, the Company remeasured its estimated deferred tax balances related to NCTI for the changes in the tax rate and recorded an expense of $ 0.5 million during the third quarter of 2025.
