These forward-looking statements are based upon management’s current expectations and represent the most current information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Company is subject to a number of unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which the Company is unable to predict or control, that may cause actual results, performance or plans to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

•adverse changes in global or regional conditions;

•damage or disruption to our operations or to those of our suppliers;

•product defects;

•our reliance on strategic relationships with key partners, including Kioxia Corporation;

•the development and introduction of new products or technologies and management of technology transitions;

•future responses to and effects of public health crises;

•loss of revenue from, or consolidation of, our key customers or increases in our customers’ credit risk;

•sales cyclicality and our ability to accurately forecast demand;

•our level of debt;

•fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

•hiring and retention of key employees;

•risks associated with legal or regulatory compliance, changing legal and regulatory requirements, and the impact and outcome of legal proceedings;

•reliance on intellectual property and other proprietary information;

•our ability to achieve some or all of the expected benefits of the spin-off and uncertainties regarding the impacts of the spin-off, including indemnification responsibilities and tax-related considerations;

•our historical and pro forma financial information is not necessarily representative of the results that we would have achieved as a separate publicly traded company;

•uncertainties regarding potential impairments to goodwill and long-lived assets; and

•whether there will be an active trading market for our common stock.

You are urged to carefully review our disclosures concerning these risks and the additional disclosures we make concerning material risks and other factors that may affect the outcome of our forward-looking statements and our business and operating results, including those made in our Registration Statement on Form 10, initially filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on November 25, 2024, and as further amended thereafter and declared effective on January 31, 2025 (as amended, the “Form 10”).
