Geographic revenue information for the third quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 2021 and 2020 reflects the geographic location of the distributors or OEMs who purchased the Company's products. This may differ from the geographic location of the end customers.

The Company's end market revenue data is derived from the understanding of end customers’ primary markets, which is based on reports provided by distributors and the Company's internal records. The Company classifies end markets into businesses with similar market drivers: Aerospace & Defense, Industrial and Test, Measurement & Emulation (AIT); Automotive, Broadcast & Consumer; Wired & Wireless; and Data Center. Additionally, revenue recognized from shipments to distributors but not yet subsequently sold to the end markets is classified as Channel Revenue. The Channel Revenue represents the difference between the shipments to distributors and what the distributors subsequently sold to the end customers within the same period. The percentage change calculation in the table below represents the year-to-year dollar change in each end market.
