| Item 5.07 | Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. |
At a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) held on February 11, 2026, the stockholders of Qorvo, Inc. (“Qorvo”) voted to approve the proposals as set forth below. The proposals are described in detail in Qorvo’s definitive proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2025 (as amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Proxy Statement”). The voting results regarding each proposal, as determined by Qorvo’s Inspector of Election, are set forth below. As of the close of business on December 23, 2025, the record date of the Special Meeting, there were 92,653,400 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Qorvo (the “Qorvo Common Stock”), outstanding, each of which was entitled to one vote on each proposal at the Special Meeting. At the Special Meeting, a total of 71,671,965 shares of Qorvo Common Stock, representing approximately 77.35% of the outstanding shares of Qorvo Common Stock entitled to vote, were present or represented by proxy, constituting a quorum to conduct business.
Proposal No. 1: To adopt the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 27, 2025 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Qorvo, Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (“Skyworks”), Comet Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Skyworks and Comet Acquisition II, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Skyworks, and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Merger Agreement Proposal”).
The Merger Agreement Proposal was approved by the requisite vote of Qorvo’s stockholders.

| 71,278,908 | 137,926 | 255,131 | 0 |
Proposal No. 2: To approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation that may be paid or become payable to the named executive officers of Qorvo in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the “Merger-Related Compensation Proposal”).
The Merger-Related Compensation Proposal was approved by the requisite vote of Qorvo’s stockholders.
| Votes For | Votes Against | Abstentions | Broker Non-Votes | |||
| 70,309,265 | 991,527 | 371,173 | 0 |
Adjournment of the Special Meeting was deemed not necessary because there was a quorum present and there were sufficient proxies at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Merger Agreement Proposal.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the completion of the proposed transactions remains subject to certain closing conditions, including (1) the expiration or early termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the approval of the proposed transaction under certain other antitrust and foreign investment regimes, (2) the absence of any order, injunction or law of such jurisdictions prohibiting the proposed transaction, (3) the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties, subject to certain standards set forth in the Merger Agreement, (4) compliance in all material respects with the other party’s obligations under the Merger Agreement and (5) the absence of a continuing material adverse effect with respect to each of Qorvo and Skyworks.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements are based on Skyworks’ and Qorvo’s current expectations, estimates and projections about the expected date of closing of the proposed transaction and the potential benefits thereof, their respective businesses and industries, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by Skyworks and Qorvo, all of which are subject to change. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “could,” “seek,” “see,” “will,” “may,” “would,” “might,” “potentially,” “estimate,” “continue,” “expect,” “target,” similar expressions or the negatives of these words or other comparable terminology that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. All forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control and are not guarantees of future results, such as statements about the consummation of the proposed transaction and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements, including the failure to consummate the proposed transaction or to make or take any filing or other action required to consummate the transaction in a timely manner or at all, are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in such statements and, therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any such statements and caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i) the completion of the proposed transaction on anticipated terms and timing, including obtaining regulatory approvals, anticipated tax treatment, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business and management strategies, expansion and growth of Skyworks’ and Qorvo’s businesses and other conditions to the completion of the proposed transaction; (ii) failure to realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, including as a result of delay in completing the transaction or integrating the businesses of Skyworks and Qorvo; (iii) Skyworks’ and Qorvo’s ability to implement their business strategies; (iv) pricing trends; (v) potential litigation relating to the proposed transaction that has been or could be instituted against Skyworks, Qorvo or their respective directors; (vi) the risk that disruptions from the proposed transaction will harm Skyworks’ or Qorvo’s business, including current plans and operations; (vii) the ability of Skyworks or Qorvo to retain and hire key personnel; (viii) potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement, pendency or completion of the proposed transaction; (ix) uncertainty as to the long-term value of Skyworks’ common stock; (x) legislative, regulatory and economic developments affecting Skyworks’ and Qorvo’s businesses; (xi) general economic and market developments and conditions; (xii) the evolving legal, regulatory and tax regimes under which Skyworks and Qorvo operate; (xiii) potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing business relationships, during the pendency of the proposed transaction that could affect Skyworks’ or Qorvo’s financial performance; (xiv) restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact Skyworks’ or Qorvo’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; and (xv) unpredictability and severity of catastrophic events, including, but not limited to, acts of terrorism or outbreak of war or hostilities, as well as Skyworks’ and Qorvo’s response to any of the aforementioned factors. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed transaction, are more fully discussed in the final prospectus filed by Skyworks with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on December 23, 2025 and the definitive proxy statement filed by Qorvo with the SEC on December 23, 2025 (together, the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”). While the list of factors presented here and in the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus are considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things, business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Skyworks’ or Qorvo’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Neither Skyworks nor Qorvo assumes any obligation to publicly provide revisions or updates to any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, should circumstances change, except as otherwise required by securities and other applicable laws.
