NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (“Vishay” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. The information furnished reflects all normal recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair summary of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented.  The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements filed with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.  The results of operations for the fiscal quarter and six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

The Company reports interim financial information for 13-week periods beginning on a Sunday and ending on a Saturday, except for the first fiscal quarter, which always begins on January 1, and the fourth fiscal quarter, which always ends on December 31.  The four fiscal quarters in 2023 end on April 1, 2023, July 1, 2023, September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2023, respectively.  The four fiscal quarters in 2022 ended on April 2, 2022, July 2, 2022, October 1, 2022, and December 31, 2022, respectively.  

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Note 2 – Acquisition Activities

As part of its growth strategy, the Company seeks to expand through targeted acquisitions of other manufacturers of electronic components.  These acquisition targets include businesses that have established positions in major markets, reputations for product quality and reliability, and product lines with which the Company has substantial marketing and technical expertise.  It also includes certain businesses that possess technologies which the Company expects to further develop and commercialize.

MaxPower Semiconductor, Inc.

On October 28, 2022, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of MaxPower Semiconductor, Inc. ("MaxPower"), a San Jose, California-based fabless power semiconductor provider dedicated to delivering innovative and cost-effective technologies that optimize power management solutions.  The acquisition of MaxPower will enhance the Company's current and future silicon carbide ("SiC") offerings for fast-growing markets such as electric vehicles.

The Company paid cash of $50,000, net of cash acquired, at closing.  Related to the transaction, Vishay may also be required to make certain contingent payments of up to $57,500, which would be payable upon the achievement of certain technology milestones, upon favorable resolution of certain technology licensing matters with a third party, and upon the disposition of MaxPower's investment in an equity affiliate.  The purchase price for U.S. GAAP purposes includes the fair value, as of the acquisition date, of certain future contingent payments to non-employee equity holders of MaxPower.  The estimated fair value of this contingent consideration as of the acquisition date was $6,851.  The contingent consideration liability is included in other accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet and is remeasured each reporting period, with changes reported as selling, general, and administrative expenses on the consolidated condensed statement of operations.  See Note 13 for further discussion on the fair value measurement. 

Based on an estimate of their fair values, the Company allocated $18,600 of the purchase price to definite-lived intangible assets.  After allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a preliminary estimation of their fair values at the date of acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $36,885 related to this acquisition.  The goodwill related to this acquisition is included in the MOSFETs reporting unit for goodwill impairment testing.  The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is considered preliminary as the Company is awaiting further information about the contingent payments.  The estimated values of definite-lived intangible assets and goodwill have not changed as of July 1, 2023.

The results and operations of this acquisition have been included in the MOSFETs segment since October 28, 2022.   

Centerline Technologies, LLC

On June 30, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Centerline Technologies, LLC ("Centerline"), a Massachusetts-based, privately held manufacturer of ceramic components used in many custom parts manufactured by certain of Vishay's Resistors businesses, for $5,003.  Based on an estimate of fair values, the Company allocated $1,500 of the purchase price to definite-lived intangible assets.  After allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on an estimation of their fair values at the date of acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $2,213 related to this acquisition.  The acquired business will be vertically integrated into the Company's Resistors segment, and the goodwill related to this acquisition is included in the Resistors reporting unit for goodwill impairment testing.

The Company paid $13,966 and $12,241 for its operating leases in the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively, which are included in operating cash flows on the consolidated condensed statements of cash flows.  The weighted-average remaining lease term for the Company's operating leases is 9.6 years and the weighted-average discount rate is 6.2% as of July 1, 2023.

The undiscounted future lease payments for the Company's operating lease liabilities are as follows:

	July 1, 2023
2023 (excluding the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023)	$	13,840
2024		25,985
2025		22,556
2026		18,778
2027		17,258
Thereafter		80,762

The undiscounted future lease payments presented in the table above include payments through the term of the lease, which may include periods beyond the noncancellable term.  The difference between the total payments above and the lease liability balance is due to the discount rate used to calculate lease liabilities.

Note 4 – Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for federal, state, and foreign income taxes.  The effective tax rates for the periods ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 reflect the Company’s expected tax rate on reported income before income tax and tax adjustments. The Company operates in a global environment with significant operations in various jurisdictions outside the United States. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the Company’s earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various jurisdictions where the Company operates. 

During the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023, the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits increased by $616 on a net basis, primarily due to currency translation adjustments, accruals for current year tax positions, and interest.

	$	639,668		$	500,937

The following table summarizes some key facts and terms regarding the outstanding convertible senior notes due 2025 as of July 1, 2023:

	Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025
Issuance date	June 12, 2018
Maturity date	June 15, 2025
Principal amount as of July 1, 2023	$	465,344
Cash coupon rate (per annum)		2.25	%
Nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at issuance (per annum)		5.50	%
Conversion rate effective June 15, 2023 (per $1 principal amount)		32.0879
Effective conversion price effective June 15, 2023 (per share)	$	31.16
130% of the current effective conversion price (per share)	$	40.51

Prior to December 15, 2024, the holders of the convertible senior notes due 2025 may convert their notes only under the following circumstances: (1) the sale price of Vishay common stock reaches 130% of the conversion price for a specified period; (2) the trading price of the notes falls below 98% of the product of the sale price of Vishay's common stock and the conversion rate for a specified period; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions.  The convertible senior notes due 2025 are not currently convertible.

Upon conversion of the convertible senior notes due 2025, Vishay will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying $1 cash per $1 principal amount of converted notes and settle any additional amounts due in common stock.

The quarterly cash dividend program of the Company results in adjustments to the conversion rate and effective conversion price for the convertible senior notes due 2025 effective as of the ex-dividend date of each cash dividend.  The conversion rate and effective conversion price for the convertible senior notes due 2025 is adjusted for quarterly cash dividends to the extent such dividends exceed $0.085 per share of common stock.

Credit Facility

The Company maintains a credit facility with a consortium of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders, which was scheduled to mature on June 5, 2024 (the "Previous Credit Facility").  On May 8, 2023, the Company entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement, which provides an aggregate commitment of $750,000 of revolving loans available until May 8, 2028 (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”).  The maturity date of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility will accelerate if within ninety-one days prior to the maturity of the Company’s convertible senior notes due 2025, the outstanding principal amount of such notes exceeds a defined liquidity measure as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

U.S. Dollar borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a credit spread and an interest margin.  The Amended and Restated Credit Facility also allows for borrowings in euro, British sterling, and Japanese yen, subject to a $250,000 limit.  Borrowings in foreign currency bear interest at a local reference rate plus an interest margin.  The applicable interest margin is based on Vishay's total leverage ratio.  Based on Vishay's current total leverage ratio, borrowings bear interest at SOFR plus 1.60%, including the applicable credit spread.  Vishay also pays a commitment fee, also based on its total leverage ratio, on undrawn amounts.  The undrawn commitment fee, based on Vishay's current total leverage ratio, is 0.25% per annum.

Similar to the Previous Credit Facility, the Amended and Restated Credit Facility requires the maintenance of financial covenant ratios.  For compliance purposes, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the leverage ratio is computed on a net basis, reducing the measure of outstanding debt by up to $250,000 of unrestricted cash.  The Company must maintain a net leverage ratio of at least 3.25 to 1.00.  Permitted investments and restricted payments are also subject to a pro forma net leverage ratio (2.75 to 1.00 and 2.50 to 1.00, respectively).

Other terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are substantially similar to the Previous Credit Facility.

Note 6  – Stockholders' Equity

In 2022, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Return Policy that will remain in effect until such time as the Board votes to amend or rescind the policy.  The Stockholder Return Policy calls for the Company to return a prescribed amount of cash flows on an annual basis. The Company intends to return such amounts directly, in the form of dividends, or indirectly, in the form of stock repurchases.

The following table summarizes activity pursuant to this policy:

The Company implemented the Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan") after receiving stockholder approval at its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 23, 2023.  The 2023 Plan allows the Company to grant up to 6,000,000 shares (subject to certain adjustments described in the 2023 Plan) of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards, phantom stock units, and other cash-based awards to employees, directors, consultants, and other service providers of the Company and its affiliates.  Such instruments are available for grant until March 24, 2033.  The Company granted approximately 733,000 time-vested restricted stock units to employees in the second fiscal quarter of 2023.

2007 Stock Incentive Program

Under the Company's 2007 Stock Incentive Program (the "2007 Program"), as amended and restated, certain executive officers and board members of the Company were granted restricted stock units.  No further awards will be granted pursuant to the 2007 Program.  Pursuant to the terms of the 2023 Plan, any shares of common stock that are subject to outstanding awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program that subsequently cease to be subject to such awards as a result of the termination, expiration, cancellation, or forfeiture of such awards and any shares of common stock withheld in settlement of tax withholding obligations associated with outstanding awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program may become available for issuance under the 2023 Plan.  A total of 1,294,546 shares of common stock were subject to awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program as of May 23, 2023.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized:

	Fiscal quarters ended						Six fiscal months ended
	July 1, 2023			July 2, 2022			July 1, 2023			July 2, 2022

** The number of RSUs vested includes shares that the Company withheld on behalf of employees to satisfy the statutory tax withholding requirements.

In addition to RSUs that vest based upon satisfaction of service or performance conditions, in 2023, the Company granted RSUs that vest based upon achievement of market conditions to certain executive officers.  For RSUs with market conditions, the Company estimates the grant date fair value using a Monte Carlo valuation model and recognizes the expense for the awards over the period in which the condition is assessed regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately achieved.  The number of performance-based RSUs that are scheduled to vest increases ratably based on the achievement of defined performance and market criteria between the established target and maximum levels.  RSUs with performance-based and market-based vesting criteria are expected to vest as follows (number of RSUs in thousands):

Vesting Date	Expected to Vest		Not Expected to Vest		Total

There have been no changes in the classification of any financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy in the periods presented.

The Company maintains non-qualified trusts, referred to as “rabbi” trusts, to fund payments under deferred compensation and non-qualified pension plans. Rabbi trust assets consist primarily of marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale and company-owned life insurance assets. The marketable securities held in the rabbi trusts are valued using quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The company-owned life insurance assets are valued in consultation with the Company’s insurance brokers using the value of underlying assets of the insurance contracts.  The fair value measurement of the marketable securities held in the rabbi trust is considered a Level 1 measurement and the measurement of the company-owned life insurance assets is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company holds investments in debt securities that are intended to fund a portion of its pension and other postretirement benefit obligations outside of the United States.  The investments are valued based on quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The fair value measurement of the investments is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

From time to time, the Company purchases precious metals bullion in excess of its immediate manufacturing needs to mitigate the risk of supply shortages or volatile price fluctuations.  The metals are valued based on quoted market prices on the last business day of the period.  The fair value measurement of the metals is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.  The inventory of precious metals bullion in excess of its immediate manufacturing needs was not material at July 1, 2023.

The Company may be required to make certain contingent payments to non-employee equity holders of MaxPower pursuant to the acquisition agreement, which would be payable upon the achievement of certain technology milestones, upon favorable resolution of certain technology licensing matters with a third party, and upon the disposition of MaxPower's investment in an equity affiliate.  The fair value of these contingent consideration payments is determined by estimating the net present value of the expected cash flows based on the probability of expected payments.  The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration is considered a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the long-term debt, excluding the derivative liabilities and deferred financing costs, at July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is approximately $693,400 and $491,100, respectively, compared to its carrying value, excluding the deferred financing costs, of $650,344 and $507,344, respectively.  The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using a combination of quoted market prices for similar financing arrangements and expected future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

At July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s short-term investments were comprised of time deposits with financial institutions that have maturities that exceed 90 days from the date of acquisition; however they all mature within one year from the respective balance sheet dates.  The Company's short-term investments are accounted for as held-to-maturity debt instruments, at amortized cost, which approximates their fair value. The investments are funded with excess cash not expected to be needed for operations prior to maturity; therefore, the Company believes it has the intent and ability to hold the short-term investments until maturity.  At each reporting date, the Company performs an evaluation to determine if any unrealized losses are other-than-temporary.  No other-than-temporary impairments have been recognized on these securities, and there are no unrecognized holding gains or losses for these securities during the periods presented.  There have been no transfers to or from the held-to-maturity classification.  All decreases in the account balance are due to returns of principal at the securities’ maturity dates.  Interest on the securities is recognized as interest income when earned.

At July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were comprised of demand deposits, time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased, and money market funds.  The Company estimates the fair value of its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments using Level 2 inputs.  Based on the current interest rates for similar investments with comparable credit risk and time to maturity, the fair value of the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and held-to-maturity short-term investments approximate the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

The Company’s financial instruments also include accounts receivable and accounts payable.  The carrying amounts for these financial instruments reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets approximate their fair values.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") is intended to provide an understanding of Vishay's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows by focusing on changes in certain key measures from period to period. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying Notes included in Item 1.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, particularly in Item 1A. "Risk Factors," filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2023.

Overview

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. ("Vishay," "we," "us," or "our") manufactures one of the world’s largest portfolios of discrete semiconductors and passive electronic components that are essential to innovative designs in the automotive, industrial, computing, consumer, telecommunications, military, aerospace, and medical markets.

We operate in six segments based on product functionality: MOSFETs, Diodes, Optoelectronic Components, Resistors, Inductors, and Capacitors.

We are focused on enhancing stockholder value by growing our business and improving earnings per share.  Since 1985, we have pursued a business strategy of growth through focused research and development and acquisitions.  We plan to continue to grow our business through intensified internal growth supplemented by opportunistic acquisitions, while maintaining a prudent capital structure.  To drive growth and optimize stockholder value, we plan to capitalize on the mega trends of electrification, data storage, and wireless communications by developing go-to-market strategies and investing in and expanding the thirty key product lines for growth that we have identified, increasing our capacity internally by investing approximately $385 million in 2023 and approximately $1.2 billion over the next three years primarily for capital expansion projects outside of China and externally by outsourcing production of commodity products to subcontractors, enhancing channel management, investing in internal resources by adding customer-facing engineers and filling gaps in technology and market coverage, promoting the full breadth of our portfolio through solution selling, and instituting a Think Customer First organizational culture.  

In addition to enhancing stockholder value through growing our business, in 2022, our Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Return Policy, which calls for us to return at least 70% of free cash flow, net of scheduled principal payments of long-term debt, on an annual basis.  See further discussion in “Stockholder Value” below.

On May 8, 2023, we amended and restated our $750 million revolving credit agreement, which replaced our credit agreement that was scheduled to mature in June 2024.  The amendment and restatement extended the maturity date of the revolving credit agreement until May 8, 2028, replaced the previous total leverage ratio used for financial covenant compliance measurement with a net leverage ratio, and replaced the LIBOR-based interest rate and related LIBOR-based mechanics applicable to U.S. dollar borrowings under the revolving credit agreement with an interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") (including a customary spread adjustment) and related SOFR-based mechanics.  The maturity date of the amended and restated facility will accelerate if within ninety-one days prior to the maturity of our convertible senior notes due 2025, the outstanding principal amount of such notes exceeds a defined liquidity measure as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.  Other terms and conditions are substantially unchanged.

Our business and operating results have been and will continue to be impacted by worldwide economic conditions.  Our revenues are dependent on end markets that are impacted by consumer and industrial demand, and our operating results can be adversely affected by reduced demand in those global markets.  In this volatile economic environment, we continue to closely monitor our fixed costs, capital expenditure plans, inventory, and capital resources to respond to changing conditions and to ensure we have the management, business processes, and resources to meet our future needs.  We will react quickly and professionally to changes in demand to minimize manufacturing inefficiencies and excess inventory build in periods of decline and maximize opportunities in periods of growth.  We have significant liquidity to withstand temporary disruptions in the economic environment.  

We utilize several financial metrics, including net revenues, gross profit margin, operating margin, segment operating margin, end-of-period backlog, book-to-bill ratio, inventory turnover, change in average selling prices, net cash and short-term investments (debt), and free cash generation to evaluate the performance and assess the future direction of our business.  See further discussion in “Financial Metrics” and “Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources” below.  The key financial metrics remained strong in the second fiscal quarter of 2023, but were negatively impacted by a distributor inventory correction that resulted in lower orders.  Gross profit was negatively impacted by the recognition of higher input costs that were previously absorbed in inventory.

25

Net revenues for the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2023 were $892.1 million, compared to $871.0 million and $863.5 million for the fiscal quarters ended April 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively.  The net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2023 were $95.0 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared to $111.8 million, or $0.79 per diluted share for the fiscal quarter ended April 1, 2023, and $112.4 million, or $0.78 per diluted share for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2022.

Net revenues for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 were $1,763.2 million, compared to $1,717.3 million for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2022.  The net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 were $206.8 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, compared to $216.0 million, or $1.49 per diluted share for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2022.

We define adjusted net earnings as net earnings determined in accordance with GAAP adjusted for various items that management believes are not indicative of the intrinsic operating performance of our business.  We define free cash as the cash flows generated from continuing operations less capital expenditures plus net proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.  The reconciliations below include certain financial measures which are not recognized in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash.  These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as alternatives to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity.  Non-GAAP measures such as adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, and free cash do not have uniform definitions.  These measures, as calculated by Vishay, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Management believes that adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share are meaningful because they provide insight with respect to our intrinsic operating results.  Management believes that free cash is a meaningful measure of our ability to fund acquisitions, repay debt, and otherwise enhance stockholder value through stock repurchases or dividends.  We utilize the free cash metric in defining our Stockholder Return Policy.

The items affecting comparability are (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Although the term "free cash" is not defined in GAAP, each of the elements used to calculate free cash for the year-to-date period is presented as a line item on the face of our consolidated condensed statement of cash flows prepared in accordance with GAAP and the quarterly amounts are derived from the year-to-date GAAP statements as of the beginning and end of the respective quarter.  Free cash results are as follows (in thousands):

	Fiscal quarters ended								Six fiscal months ended
	July 1, 2023		April 1, 2023			July 2, 2022			July 1, 2023		July 2, 2022
Net cash provided by continuing operating activities	$	107,239	$	129,893		$	74,727		$	237,132	$	108,312

Free cash	$	36,250	$	84,645		$	15,241		$	120,895	$	12,989

Despite the distributor inventory correction that began in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022 and continued in 2023, our results for the fiscal quarters ended July 1, 2023, April 1, 2023, and July 2, 2022 represent  favorable business conditions.

Our free cash results were significantly impacted by the installment payments of the U.S. transition tax of $27.7 million and $14.8 million in the second fiscal quarters of 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $25.2 million of payments of foreign, withholding, and claw-back cash taxes on foreign earnings in Israel for the net $81.2 million that was repatriated to the U.S. in the second fiscal quarter of 2022.

27

Stockholder Value

We are focused on enhancing stockholder value by growing our business and improving earnings per share.  Over the next few years, we expect to experience higher internal growth rates than over the last decade.  This expectation is based upon accelerated electrification, such as factory automation, electrical vehicles, and 5G infrastructures.  To meet this expected increase in demand and to fully participate in growing markets, we intend to increase our capital expenditures for expansion outside of China in the mid-term.  The increased capital expenditures will be primarily used to increase manufacturing capacity for the thirty key product lines for growth that we identified.  The most significant expansion projects include building a 12-inch wafer fab in Itzehoe, Germany adjacent to our existing 8-inch fab, expanding our Inductors manufacturing, and expanding our GaAs fab in Heilbronn, Germany.

In 2022, our Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Return Policy, which calls for us to return at least 70% of free cash flow, net of scheduled principal payments of long-term debt, on an annual basis.  We intend to return such amounts to stockholders directly, in the form of dividends, or indirectly, in the form of stock repurchases.

The following table summarizes activity pursuant to this policy (in thousands):

	Fiscal quarters ended						Six fiscal months ended
	July 1, 2023			July 2, 2022			July 1, 2023			July 2, 2022
Dividends paid to stockholders		$	13,937		$	14,339		$	27,957		$	28,808
Stock repurchases			20,226			26,288			40,399			36,161
Total		$	34,163		$	40,627		$	68,356		$	64,969

During the fourth quarters of 2022 and 2021, we determined that substantially all unremitted foreign earnings in Israel and Germany, respectively, are no longer indefinitely reinvested.  The changes in these indefinite reinvestment assertions will provide greater access to our worldwide cash balances to fund our growth plan and our Stockholder Return Policy, but also increased our effective tax rate.

The structure of our Stockholder Return Policy enables us to allocate capital responsibly among our business, our lenders, and our stockholders. We will continue to invest in growth initiatives including key product line expansions, targeted R&D, and synergistic acquisitions. 

We have paid dividends each quarter since the first quarter of 2014, and the Stockholder Return Policy will remain in effect until such time as the Board votes to amend or rescind the policy.  Implementation of the Stockholder Return Policy is subject to future declarations of dividends by the Board of Directors, market and business conditions, legal requirements, and other factors.  The policy sets forth our intention, but does not obligate us to acquire any shares of common stock or declare any dividends, and the policy may be terminated or suspended at any time at our discretion, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. 

28

Financial Metrics

We utilize several financial metrics to evaluate the performance and assess the future direction of our business.  These key financial measures and metrics include net revenues, gross profit margin, operating margin, segment operating income, segment operating margin, end-of-period backlog, and the book-to-bill ratio.  We also monitor changes in inventory turnover and our or publicly available average selling prices (“ASP”).

Gross profit margin is computed as gross profit as a percentage of net revenues.  Gross profit is generally net revenues less costs of products sold, but also deducts certain other period costs, particularly losses on purchase commitments and inventory write-downs.  Losses on purchase commitments and inventory write-downs have the impact of reducing gross profit margin in the period of the charge, but result in improved gross profit margins in subsequent periods by reducing costs of products sold as inventory is used.  We also regularly evaluate gross profit by segment to assist in the analysis of consolidated gross profit.  Gross profit margin and gross profit margin by segment are clearly a function of net revenues, but also reflect our cost management programs and our ability to contain fixed costs.

Operating margin is computed as gross profit less operating expenses, expressed as a percentage of net revenues.  Operating margin is clearly a function of net revenues, but also reflects our cost management programs and our ability to contain fixed costs.

Our chief operating decision maker makes decisions, allocates resources, and evaluates business segment performance based on segment operating income.  Only dedicated, direct selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") expenses of the segments are included in the calculation of segment operating income.  We do not allocate certain SG&A expenses that are managed at the regional or corporate global level to our segments.  Accordingly, segment operating income excludes these SG&A expenses that are not directly traceable to the segments.  Segment operating income would also exclude costs not routinely used in the management of the segments in periods when those items are present, such as restructuring and severance costs, the direct impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and other items affecting comparability.  Segment operating income is clearly a function of net revenues, but also reflects our cost management programs and our ability to contain fixed costs.  Segment operating margin is segment operating income expressed as a percentage of net revenues. 

End-of-period backlog is one indicator of future revenues. We include in our backlog only open orders that we expect to ship in the next twelve months.  If demand falls below customers’ forecasts, or if customers do not control their inventory effectively, they may cancel or reschedule the shipments that are included in our backlog, in many instances without the payment of any penalty.  Therefore, the backlog is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods.

An important indicator of demand in our industry is the book-to-bill ratio, which is the ratio of the amount of product ordered during a period as compared with the product that we ship during that period. A book-to-bill ratio that is greater than one indicates that our backlog is building and that we are likely to see increasing revenues in future periods. Conversely, a book-to-bill ratio that is less than one is an indicator of declining demand and may foretell declining revenues.

We focus on our inventory turnover as a measure of how well we are managing our inventory.  We define inventory turnover for a financial reporting period as our costs of products sold for the four fiscal quarters ending on the last day of the reporting period divided by our average inventory (computed using each fiscal quarter-end balance) for this same period.  A higher level of inventory turnover reflects more efficient use of our capital.

Pricing in our industry can be volatile.  Using our and publicly available data, we analyze trends and changes in average selling prices to evaluate likely future pricing.  The erosion of average selling prices of established products is typical for semiconductor products.  We attempt to offset this deterioration with ongoing cost reduction activities and new product introductions.  Our specialty passive components are more resistant to average selling price erosion.  All pricing is subject to governing market conditions and is independently set by us.

29

The quarter-to-quarter trends in these financial metrics can also be an important indicator of the likely direction of our business. The following table shows net revenues, gross profit margin, operating margin, end-of-period backlog, book-to-bill ratio, inventory turnover, and changes in ASP for our business as a whole during the five fiscal quarters beginning with the second fiscal quarter of 2022 through the second fiscal quarter of 2023 (dollars in thousands):

	2nd Quarter 2022			3rd Quarter 2022			4th Quarter 2022			1st Quarter 2023			2nd Quarter 2023
Net revenues	$	863,512		$	924,798		$	855,298		$	871,046		$	892,110
Gross profit margin(1)		30.3	%		31.3	%		29.1	%		32.0	%		28.9	%
Operating margin(2)		17.5	%		19.8	%		15.8	%		18.2	%		15.1	%
End-of-period backlog	$	2,425,200		$	2,261,400		$	2,292,700		$	2,169,400		$	1,895,100
Book-to-bill ratio		1.07			0.88			0.94			0.84			0.69
Inventory turnover		3.8			4.1			3.9			3.7			3.9
Change in ASP vs. prior quarter		2.9	%		0.0	%		0.6	%		1.2	%		(0.7	)%

_________________________________________

(1) Gross margin for the second fiscal quarter of 2022 includes $6.7 million of expenses directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

(2) Operating margin for the second fiscal quarter of 2022 includes $7.2 million of expenses directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

See “Financial Metrics by Segment” below for net revenues, book-to-bill ratio, and gross profit margin broken out by segment.

Revenues increased slightly versus the prior fiscal quarter and the second fiscal quarter of 2023 primarily due to increased volume and positive foreign currency impacts.  Higher average selling prices also contributed to the increase versus the second fiscal quarter of 2022.  The book-to-bill ratio and backlog were negatively impacted by a distributor inventory correction that continued in the second fiscal quarter of 2023.  We continue to increase manufacturing capacity for critical product lines.  Average selling prices decreased versus the prior fiscal quarter.

Gross profit margin decreased versus the prior fiscal quarter and the second fiscal quarter of 2022.  The decrease versus the prior fiscal quarter is primarily due to lower average selling prices, manufacturing inefficiencies, and the recognition upon sale of increased costs previously absorbed in inventory.  The decrease versus the first fiscal quarter of 2022 is primarily due to cost inflation, manufacturing inefficiencies, and the recognition upon sale of increased costs previously absorbed in inventory, partially offset by higher average selling prices.

The book-to-bill ratio in the second fiscal quarter of 2023 decreased to 0.69 versus 0.84 in the first fiscal quarter of 2023.  The book-to-bill ratio was negatively impacted by a distributor inventory correction that continued in the second fiscal quarter of 2023.

July 2, 2022		$	28,598		3.3	%		$	45,851		2.7	%

Changes in net revenues were attributable to the following:

	vs. Prior Quarter			vs. Prior Year Quarter			vs. Prior Year-to-Date
Change attributable to:
Change in volume		2.6	%		1.4	%		(0.1	)%
Change in average selling prices		(0.7	)%		1.1	%		3.0	%

Despite the distributor inventory correction that we are experiencing, the economic environment remains good and we continue to increase manufacturing capacities.  Increased average selling prices contributed to the increase in net revenues versus the second fiscal quarter of 2022.  Positive foreign currency impacts also contributed to the increase versus the prior fiscal quarter and the second fiscal quarter of 2022.

Gross Profit Margins

Gross profit margins for the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2023 were 28.9%, versus 32.0% and 30.3%, for the comparable prior quarter and prior year period, respectively.  Gross profit margins for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 were 30.4%, versus 30.3% for the comparable prior year period.  The decrease versus the prior fiscal quarter is primarily due to lower average selling prices, manufacturing inefficiencies, and the recognition upon sale of increased costs previously absorbed in inventory.  The decrease versus the first fiscal quarter of 2022 is primarily due to cost inflation, manufacturing inefficiencies, and the recognition upon sale of increased costs previously absorbed in inventory, partially offset by higher average selling prices.  The increase versus the prior year-to-date period is primarily due to higher average selling prices and increased volume, partially offset by increased materials, utilities, and labor costs.

The MOSFET segment net revenues increased moderately versus the prior fiscal quarter and increased significantly versus the prior year periods.  The increase versus the prior fiscal quarter is primarily due to increased sales to distribution customers and customers in the Europe and Americas regions.  The increase versus the prior year quarter is primarily due to increased sales to distribution customers, automotive and power supply end market customers, and customers in the Europe and Americas regions, partially offset by decreased sales to computing and telecommunications end market customers.  The increase versus the prior year-to-date period is primarily due to increased sales to distribution customers, automotive, power supply, and industrial end market customers, and customers in the Europe and Americas regions, partially offset by decreased sales to computing and telecommunications end market customers. 

Gross profit margin decreased versus the prior fiscal quarter and the prior year quarter, but increased versus the prior year-to-date period.  The decrease versus the prior fiscal quarter is primarily due to decreased average selling prices and increased input costs, partially offset by increased sales volume.  Gross profit increased versus the prior year quarter and gross profit margin was relatively flat due to increased costs.  Gross profit margin increased versus the prior year-to-date period primarily due to increased sales volume and higher average selling prices, partially offset by higher material, labor, and utility costs and manufacturing inefficiencies.

The segment operating margin decreased versus the prior fiscal quarter and the prior year quarter, but increased versus the prior year-to-date period.  The fluctuations are primarily due to gross profit fluctuations.  Increased segment SG&A expenses as a percentage of sales also impacted all comparison periods.

Average selling prices decreased versus the prior fiscal quarter, but increased versus the prior year periods.

We continue to invest to expand mid- and long-term manufacturing capacity for strategic product lines.  We have begun building a 12-inch wafer fab in Itzehoe, Germany adjacent to our existing 8-inch wafer fab, which we expect will increase our in-house wafer capacity by approximately 70% within 3-4 years and allow us to balance our in-house and foundry wafer supply.

We acquired leading edge silicon and silicon carbide MOSFETs products with our acquisition of MaxPower in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022.

Income Taxes

For the fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2023, our effective tax rate was 28.5%, as compared to 28.4% and 23.8% for the fiscal quarters ended April 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022, respectively.  For the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023, our effective tax rate was 28.5%, as compared to 23.7% for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2022.  We expect that our effective tax rate will be higher than the U.S. statutory rate, excluding unusual transactions. 

During the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023, the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits increased by $0.6 million on a net basis, primarily due to currency translation adjustments, accruals for current year tax positions, and interest.

We operate in a global environment with significant operations in various locations outside the United States. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting our earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various locations where we operate. Part of our historical strategy has been to achieve cost savings through the transfer and expansion of manufacturing operations to countries where we can take advantage of lower labor costs and available tax and other government-sponsored incentives. 

Additional information about income taxes is included in Note 4 to our consolidated condensed financial statements.

Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources

Our financial condition as of July 1, 2023 continued to be strong.  Cash and short-term investments exceed our long-term debt balances, and we have historically been a strong generator of operating cash flows.  The cash generated from operations is used to fund our capital expenditure plans, and cash in excess of our capital expenditure needs is available to fund our acquisition strategy, to reduce debt levels, and to pay dividends and repurchase stock.  

Management uses a non-GAAP measure, "free cash," to evaluate our ability to fund acquisitions, repay debt, and otherwise enhance stockholder value through stock repurchases or dividends.  See "Overview" above for "free cash" definition and reconciliation to GAAP. 

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $237.1 million for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023, as compared to cash flows provided by operations of $108.3 million for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2022.

In order to manage our working capital and operating cash needs, we monitor our cash conversion cycle.  The following table presents the components of our cash conversion cycle:

	Fiscal quarters ended
	July 1, 2023			April 1, 2023			July 2, 2022
Days sales outstanding ("DSO") (a)		46			45			45
Days inventory outstanding ("DIO") (b)		94			98			95
Days payable outstanding ("DPO") (c)		(32	)		(32	)		(37	)
Cash conversion cycle		108			111			103

a)  DSO measures the average collection period of our receivables.  DSO is calculated by dividing the average accounts receivable by the average net revenue per day for the respective fiscal quarter.

b)  DIO measures the average number of days from procurement to sale of our product.  DIO is calculated by dividing the average inventory by average cost of goods sold per day for the respective fiscal quarter.

c)  DPO measures the average number of days our payables remain outstanding before payment.  DPO is calculated by dividing the average accounts payable by the average cost of goods sold per day for the respective fiscal quarter.

Cash paid for property and equipment for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 was $117.3 million, as compared to $95.7 million for the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2022.  To be well positioned to service our customers and to fully participate in growing markets, we intend to increase our capital expenditures for expansion in the mid-term.  We expect to invest approximately $385 million in 2023 and approximately $1.2 billion over the next three years primarily for capital expansion projects outside of China.

Free cash flow for the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023 was negatively impacted by higher than usual capital expenditures, but still increased significantly versus the six fiscal months ended July 2, 2022 primarily due to a smaller increase in working capital.  We expect our business to continue to be a reliable generator of free cash.  There is no assurance, however, that we will be able to continue to generate cash flows from operations and free cash at our historical levels, or at all, going forward if the economic environment worsens. 

In 2022, our Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Return Policy that will remain in effect until such time as the Board votes to amend or rescind the policy.  See “Stockholder Value” above for additional information.

The following table summarizes the components of net cash and short-term investments (debt) at July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

	July 1, 2023			December 31, 2022
Credit facility	$	185,000		$	42,000
Convertible senior notes, due 2025		465,344			465,344
Deferred financing costs		(10,676	)		(6,407	)
Total debt		639,668			500,937
Cash and cash equivalents		1,089,420			610,825
Short-term investments		14,366			305,272
Net cash and short-term investments (debt)	$	464,118		$	415,160

"Net cash and short-term investments (debt)" does not have a uniform definition and is not recognized in accordance with GAAP. This measure should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance or liquidity.  However, management believes that an analysis of "net cash and short-term investments (debt)" assists investors in understanding aspects of our cash and debt management. The measure, as calculated by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

We invest a portion of our excess cash in highly liquid, high-quality instruments with maturities greater than 90 days, but less than 1 year, which we classify as short-term investments on our consolidated balance sheets.  As these investments were funded using a portion of excess cash and represent a significant aspect of our cash management strategy, we include the investments in the calculation of net cash and short-term investments (debt).

41

The interest rates on our short-term investments vary by location.  Transactions related to these investments are classified as investing activities on our consolidated condensed statements of cash flows.  We are aligning the maturity dates of our cash equivalents and short-terms investments in preparation of a planned repatriation in the third fiscal quarter of 2023.  This has resulted in a decrease in our short-term investment balance.

As of July 1, 2023, substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were held in countries outside of the United States.  Cash dividends to stockholders, share repurchases, and principal and interest payments on our debt instruments need to be paid by the U.S. parent company, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.  Our U.S. subsidiaries also have cash operating needs.  The distribution of earnings from Israel and Germany to the United States will be used, in part, to fund our Stockholder Return Policy.  We expect that cash on-hand and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our longer-term financing needs related to normal operating requirements, regular dividend payments, share repurchases pursuant to our Stockholder Return Policy, and our research and development and capital expenditure plans.  Our substantially undrawn credit facility provides us with significant operating liquidity in the United States.

On May 8, 2023, we amended and restated our $750 million revolving credit agreement, which replaced our credit agreement that was scheduled to mature in June 2024.  The amendment and restatement extended the maturity date of the revolving credit agreement until May 8, 2028.

The maximum amount available on the revolving credit facility is restricted by the financial covenants described below.  The credit facility also provides us the ability to request up to $300 million of incremental facilities, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which could take the form of additional revolving commitments, incremental “term loan A” or “term loan B” facilities, or incremental equivalent debt.

We had $42 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility at December 31, 2022 and $185 million outstanding at July 1, 2023.  We borrowed $426 million and repaid $283 million on the revolving credit facility during the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023.  The average outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility calculated at fiscal month-ends was $129.2 million and the highest amount outstanding on our revolving credit facility at a fiscal month end was $185 million during the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023.

The amendment and restatement of the facility replaced the leverage ratio used for compliance measurement with a net leverage ratio, reducing the measure of outstanding debt by up to $250 million of unrestricted cash.  Measurements prior to the amendment and restatement were based on a total leverage ratio.

Pursuant to the amended and restated credit facility, the financial maintenance covenants include (a) an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1; and (b) a net leverage ratio of not more than 3.25 to 1 (and a pro forma ratio of 3.00 to 1 on the date of incurrence of additional debt). The computation of these ratios is prescribed in Article VI of the Credit Agreement between Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., which was filed with the SEC as Exhibit 10.1 to our current report on Form 8-K filed May 8, 2023.

The revolving credit facility limits or restricts us from, among other things, incurring indebtedness, incurring liens on its respective assets, making investments and acquisitions (assuming our pro forma net leverage ratio is greater than 2.75 to 1.00), making asset sales, and paying cash dividends and making other restricted payments (assuming our pro forma net leverage ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1.00).

We were in compliance with all financial covenants under the credit facility at July 1, 2023.  Our interest coverage ratio and net leverage ratio were 26.70 to 1 and 0.50 to 1, respectively.  We expect to continue to be in compliance with these covenants based on current projections.

If we are not in compliance with all of the required financial covenants, the credit facility could be terminated by the lenders, and any amounts then outstanding pursuant to the credit facility could become immediately payable. Additionally, our convertible senior notes due 2025 have cross-default provisions that could accelerate repayment in the event the indebtedness under the credit facility is accelerated.  The maturity date of the amended and restated credit facility will accelerate if within ninety-one days prior to the maturity of our convertible senior notes due 2025, the outstanding principal amount of such notes exceeds a defined liquidity measure as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

Prior to the amendment and restatement, borrowings under the credit facility bore interest at LIBOR plus an interest margin.  The applicable interest margin is based on our total leverage ratio.  We also pay a commitment fee, also based on our total leverage ratio, on undrawn amounts.  The amended and restated credit facility replaced the LIBOR-based interest rate and related LIBOR-based mechanics applicable to U.S. dollar borrowings under the revolving credit agreement with an interest rate based on SOFR (including a customary spread adjustment) and related SOFR-based mechanics.  Borrowings in foreign currency bear interest at a local reference rate plus an interest margin.  Based on our current total leverage ratio of 0.82 to 1, any new borrowings will bear interest at SOFR plus 1.60% (including the applicable credit spread), and the undrawn commitment fee is 0.25% per annum. 

The borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a lien on substantially all assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and general intangibles (but excluding real estate, intellectual property registered or licensed solely for use in, or arising solely under the laws of, any country other than the United States, assets located solely outside of the United States and deposit and securities accounts), of Vishay and certain significant subsidiaries located in the United States, and pledges of stock in certain subsidiaries; and are guaranteed by certain significant subsidiaries.

We expect, at least initially, to fund certain future obligations required to be paid by the U.S. parent company by borrowing under our revolving credit facility.  We also expect to continue to use the credit facility from time-to-time to meet certain short-term financing needs.  Additional acquisition activity, convertible debt repurchases, or conversion of our convertible debt instruments may require additional borrowing under our credit facility or may otherwise require us to incur additional debt.  No principal payments on our debt are due before 2025.

The convertible senior notes due 2025 are not currently convertible.  Pursuant to the indenture governing the convertible senior notes due 2025 and the amendments thereto incorporated in the Supplemental Indenture dated December 23, 2020, we will cash-settle the principal amount of $1,000 per note and settle any additional amounts in shares of our common stock.  We intend to finance the principal amount of any converted notes using borrowings under our credit facility.  No conversions have occurred to date.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results, performance, or achievements may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected.  Among the factors that could cause actual results to materially differ include: general business and economic conditions; delays or difficulties in implementing our cost reduction strategies; delays or difficulties in expanding our manufacturing capacities; manufacturing or supply chain interruptions or changes in customer demand because of COVID-19 or otherwise; an inability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; uncertainty related to the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates; competition and technological changes in our industries; difficulties in new product development; difficulties in identifying suitable acquisition candidates, consummating a transaction on terms which we consider acceptable, and integration and performance of acquired businesses; changes in applicable domestic and foreign tax regulations and uncertainty regarding the same; changes in U.S. and foreign trade regulations and tariffs and uncertainty regarding the same; changes in applicable accounting standards and other factors affecting our operations, markets, capacity to meet demand, products, services, and prices that are set forth in our filings with the SEC, including our annual reports on Form 10-K and our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K listed various important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from projected and historic results. We note these factors for investors as permitted by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Readers can find them in Part I, Item 1A, of that filing under the heading “Risk Factors.” You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors.  Consequently, you should not consider any such list to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties.

Acquisition and Divestiture Activities [Abstract]

Acquisition and Divestiture Activities

Note 2 – Acquisition Activities

As part of its growth strategy, the Company seeks to expand through targeted acquisitions of other manufacturers of electronic components.  These acquisition targets include businesses that have established positions in major markets, reputations for product quality and reliability, and product lines with which the Company has substantial marketing and technical expertise.  It also includes certain businesses that possess technologies which the Company expects to further develop and commercialize.

MaxPower Semiconductor, Inc.

On October 28, 2022, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of MaxPower Semiconductor, Inc. ("MaxPower"), a San Jose, California-based fabless power semiconductor provider dedicated to delivering innovative and cost-effective technologies that optimize power management solutions.  The acquisition of MaxPower will enhance the Company's current and future silicon carbide ("SiC") offerings for fast-growing markets such as electric vehicles.

The Company paid cash of $50,000, net of cash acquired, at closing.  Related to the transaction, Vishay may also be required to make certain contingent payments of up to $57,500, which would be payable upon the achievement of certain technology milestones, upon favorable resolution of certain technology licensing matters with a third party, and upon the disposition of MaxPower's investment in an equity affiliate.  The purchase price for U.S. GAAP purposes includes the fair value, as of the acquisition date, of certain future contingent payments to non-employee equity holders of MaxPower.  The estimated fair value of this contingent consideration as of the acquisition date was $6,851.  The contingent consideration liability is included in other accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet and is remeasured each reporting period, with changes reported as selling, general, and administrative expenses on the consolidated condensed statement of operations.  See Note 13 for further discussion on the fair value measurement. 

Based on an estimate of their fair values, the Company allocated $18,600 of the purchase price to definite-lived intangible assets.  After allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on a preliminary estimation of their fair values at the date of acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $36,885 related to this acquisition.  The goodwill related to this acquisition is included in the MOSFETs reporting unit for goodwill impairment testing.  The purchase price allocation for this acquisition is considered preliminary as the Company is awaiting further information about the contingent payments.  The estimated values of definite-lived intangible assets and goodwill have not changed as of July 1, 2023.

The results and operations of this acquisition have been included in the MOSFETs segment since October 28, 2022.   

Centerline Technologies, LLC

On June 30, 2023, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of Centerline Technologies, LLC ("Centerline"), a Massachusetts-based, privately held manufacturer of ceramic components used in many custom parts manufactured by certain of Vishay's Resistors businesses, for $5,003.  Based on an estimate of fair values, the Company allocated $1,500 of the purchase price to definite-lived intangible assets.  After allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on an estimation of their fair values at the date of acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $2,213 related to this acquisition.  The acquired business will be vertically integrated into the Company's Resistors segment, and the goodwill related to this acquisition is included in the Resistors reporting unit for goodwill impairment testing.

Thereafter		80,762

The undiscounted future lease payments presented in the table above include payments through the term of the lease, which may include periods beyond the noncancellable term.  The difference between the total payments above and the lease liability balance is due to the discount rate used to calculate lease liabilities.

Income Taxes [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Note 4 – Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for federal, state, and foreign income taxes.  The effective tax rates for the periods ended July 1, 2023 and July 2, 2022 reflect the Company’s expected tax rate on reported income before income tax and tax adjustments. The Company operates in a global environment with significant operations in various jurisdictions outside the United States. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the Company’s earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various jurisdictions where the Company operates. 

During the six fiscal months ended July 1, 2023, the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits increased by $616 on a net basis, primarily due to currency translation adjustments, accruals for current year tax positions, and interest.

	July 1, 2023			December 31, 2022
Credit facility	$	185,000		$	42,000
Convertible senior notes, due 2025		465,344			465,344

	$	639,668		$	500,937

The following table summarizes some key facts and terms regarding the outstanding convertible senior notes due 2025 as of July 1, 2023:

	Convertible Senior Notes Due 2025
Issuance date	June 12, 2018
Maturity date	June 15, 2025
Principal amount as of July 1, 2023	$	465,344
Cash coupon rate (per annum)		2.25	%
Nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at issuance (per annum)		5.50	%
Conversion rate effective June 15, 2023 (per $1 principal amount)		32.0879
Effective conversion price effective June 15, 2023 (per share)	$	31.16
130% of the current effective conversion price (per share)	$	40.51

Prior to December 15, 2024, the holders of the convertible senior notes due 2025 may convert their notes only under the following circumstances: (1) the sale price of Vishay common stock reaches 130% of the conversion price for a specified period; (2) the trading price of the notes falls below 98% of the product of the sale price of Vishay's common stock and the conversion rate for a specified period; or (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions.  The convertible senior notes due 2025 are not currently convertible.

Upon conversion of the convertible senior notes due 2025, Vishay will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying $1 cash per $1 principal amount of converted notes and settle any additional amounts due in common stock.

The quarterly cash dividend program of the Company results in adjustments to the conversion rate and effective conversion price for the convertible senior notes due 2025 effective as of the ex-dividend date of each cash dividend.  The conversion rate and effective conversion price for the convertible senior notes due 2025 is adjusted for quarterly cash dividends to the extent such dividends exceed $0.085 per share of common stock.

Credit Facility

The Company maintains a credit facility with a consortium of banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders, which was scheduled to mature on June 5, 2024 (the "Previous Credit Facility").  On May 8, 2023, the Company entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement, which provides an aggregate commitment of $750,000 of revolving loans available until May 8, 2028 (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”).  The maturity date of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility will accelerate if within ninety-one days prior to the maturity of the Company’s convertible senior notes due 2025, the outstanding principal amount of such notes exceeds a defined liquidity measure as set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.

U.S. Dollar borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a credit spread and an interest margin.  The Amended and Restated Credit Facility also allows for borrowings in euro, British sterling, and Japanese yen, subject to a $250,000 limit.  Borrowings in foreign currency bear interest at a local reference rate plus an interest margin.  The applicable interest margin is based on Vishay's total leverage ratio.  Based on Vishay's current total leverage ratio, borrowings bear interest at SOFR plus 1.60%, including the applicable credit spread.  Vishay also pays a commitment fee, also based on its total leverage ratio, on undrawn amounts.  The undrawn commitment fee, based on Vishay's current total leverage ratio, is 0.25% per annum.

Similar to the Previous Credit Facility, the Amended and Restated Credit Facility requires the maintenance of financial covenant ratios.  For compliance purposes, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the leverage ratio is computed on a net basis, reducing the measure of outstanding debt by up to $250,000 of unrestricted cash.  The Company must maintain a net leverage ratio of at least 3.25 to 1.00.  Permitted investments and restricted payments are also subject to a pro forma net leverage ratio (2.75 to 1.00 and 2.50 to 1.00, respectively).

Other terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are substantially similar to the Previous Credit Facility.

Stock-Based Compensation

Note 10 – Stock-Based Compensation

2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan

The Company implemented the Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan") after receiving stockholder approval at its 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 23, 2023.  The 2023 Plan allows the Company to grant up to 6,000,000 shares (subject to certain adjustments described in the 2023 Plan) of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards, phantom stock units, and other cash-based awards to employees, directors, consultants, and other service providers of the Company and its affiliates.  Such instruments are available for grant until March 24, 2033.  The Company granted approximately 733,000 time-vested restricted stock units to employees in the second fiscal quarter of 2023.

2007 Stock Incentive Program

Under the Company's 2007 Stock Incentive Program (the "2007 Program"), as amended and restated, certain executive officers and board members of the Company were granted restricted stock units.  No further awards will be granted pursuant to the 2007 Program.  Pursuant to the terms of the 2023 Plan, any shares of common stock that are subject to outstanding awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program that subsequently cease to be subject to such awards as a result of the termination, expiration, cancellation, or forfeiture of such awards and any shares of common stock withheld in settlement of tax withholding obligations associated with outstanding awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program may become available for issuance under the 2023 Plan.  A total of 1,294,546 shares of common stock were subject to awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program as of May 23, 2023.

The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense recognized:

	Fiscal quarters ended						Six fiscal months ended
	July 1, 2023			July 2, 2022			July 1, 2023			July 2, 2022

The following table summarizes unrecognized compensation cost and the weighted average remaining amortization periods at July 1, 2023 (amortization periods in years):

	Unrecognized Compensation Cost			Weighted Average Remaining Amortization Periods
Restricted stock units		$	25,283		1.7
Phantom stock units			-		n/a
Total		$	25,283

The Company currently expects all performance-based RSUs to vest and all of the associated unrecognized compensation cost for performance-based RSUs presented in the table above to be recognized.

* Employees in certain countries are granted equity-linked awards that will be settled in cash and are accounted for as liability awards.  The liability awards are not material.  The number of RSUs granted excludes these awards.

** The number of RSUs vested includes shares that the Company withheld on behalf of employees to satisfy the statutory tax withholding requirements.

In addition to RSUs that vest based upon satisfaction of service or performance conditions, in 2023, the Company granted RSUs that vest based upon achievement of market conditions to certain executive officers.  For RSUs with market conditions, the Company estimates the grant date fair value using a Monte Carlo valuation model and recognizes the expense for the awards over the period in which the condition is assessed regardless of whether the market condition is ultimately achieved.  The number of performance-based RSUs that are scheduled to vest increases ratably based on the achievement of defined performance and market criteria between the established target and maximum levels.  RSUs with performance-based and market-based vesting criteria are expected to vest as follows (number of RSUs in thousands):

Vesting Date	Expected to Vest		Not Expected to Vest		Total
January 1, 2024		165		-		165

Diluted earnings per share attributable to Vishay stockholders	$	0.68	$	0.78	$	1.47	$	1.49

Diluted earnings per share for the periods presented do not reflect the following weighted average potential common shares that would have an antidilutive effect or have unsatisfied performance conditions (in thousands):

	Fiscal quarters ended				Six fiscal months ended

Restricted stock units		318		333		159		333

If the average market price of Vishay common stock is less than the effective conversion price of the convertible senior notes due 2025, no shares are included in the diluted earnings per share computation for the convertible senior notes due 2025.  Upon Vishay exercising its existing right to legally amend the indenture governing the convertible senior notes due 2025, Vishay will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying $1 cash per $1 principal amount of converted notes and settle any additional amounts due in common stock.  Accordingly, the notes are not anti-dilutive when the average market price of Vishay common stock is less than the effective conversion price of the convertible senior notes due 2025.

There have been no changes in the classification of any financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy in the periods presented.

The Company maintains non-qualified trusts, referred to as “rabbi” trusts, to fund payments under deferred compensation and non-qualified pension plans. Rabbi trust assets consist primarily of marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale and company-owned life insurance assets. The marketable securities held in the rabbi trusts are valued using quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The company-owned life insurance assets are valued in consultation with the Company’s insurance brokers using the value of underlying assets of the insurance contracts.  The fair value measurement of the marketable securities held in the rabbi trust is considered a Level 1 measurement and the measurement of the company-owned life insurance assets is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

The Company holds investments in debt securities that are intended to fund a portion of its pension and other postretirement benefit obligations outside of the United States.  The investments are valued based on quoted market prices on the last business day of the period. The fair value measurement of the investments is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

From time to time, the Company purchases precious metals bullion in excess of its immediate manufacturing needs to mitigate the risk of supply shortages or volatile price fluctuations.  The metals are valued based on quoted market prices on the last business day of the period.  The fair value measurement of the metals is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.  The inventory of precious metals bullion in excess of its immediate manufacturing needs was not material at July 1, 2023.

The Company may be required to make certain contingent payments to non-employee equity holders of MaxPower pursuant to the acquisition agreement, which would be payable upon the achievement of certain technology milestones, upon favorable resolution of certain technology licensing matters with a third party, and upon the disposition of MaxPower's investment in an equity affiliate.  The fair value of these contingent consideration payments is determined by estimating the net present value of the expected cash flows based on the probability of expected payments.  The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration is considered a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the long-term debt, excluding the derivative liabilities and deferred financing costs, at July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022 is approximately $693,400 and $491,100, respectively, compared to its carrying value, excluding the deferred financing costs, of $650,344 and $507,344, respectively.  The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using a combination of quoted market prices for similar financing arrangements and expected future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates, which are considered Level 2 inputs.

At July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s short-term investments were comprised of time deposits with financial institutions that have maturities that exceed 90 days from the date of acquisition; however they all mature within one year from the respective balance sheet dates.  The Company's short-term investments are accounted for as held-to-maturity debt instruments, at amortized cost, which approximates their fair value. The investments are funded with excess cash not expected to be needed for operations prior to maturity; therefore, the Company believes it has the intent and ability to hold the short-term investments until maturity.  At each reporting date, the Company performs an evaluation to determine if any unrealized losses are other-than-temporary.  No other-than-temporary impairments have been recognized on these securities, and there are no unrecognized holding gains or losses for these securities during the periods presented.  There have been no transfers to or from the held-to-maturity classification.  All decreases in the account balance are due to returns of principal at the securities’ maturity dates.  Interest on the securities is recognized as interest income when earned.

At July 1, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were comprised of demand deposits, time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased, and money market funds.  The Company estimates the fair value of its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments using Level 2 inputs.  Based on the current interest rates for similar investments with comparable credit risk and time to maturity, the fair value of the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and held-to-maturity short-term investments approximate the carrying amounts reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

The Company’s financial instruments also include accounts receivable and accounts payable.  The carrying amounts for these financial instruments reported in the consolidated condensed balance sheets approximate their fair values.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Discussion on convertible debt included in computation of earnings per share diluted

If the average market price of Vishay common stock is less than the effective conversion price of the convertible senior notes due 2025, no shares are included in the diluted earnings per share computation for the convertible senior notes due 2025.  Upon Vishay exercising its existing right to legally amend the indenture governing the convertible senior notes due 2025, Vishay will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying $1 cash per $1 principal amount of converted notes and settle any additional amounts due in common stock.  Accordingly, the notes are not anti-dilutive when the average market price of Vishay common stock is less than the effective conversion price of the convertible senior notes due 2025.
