CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts contained in this quarterly report, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, and any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other important factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “could,” “intend,” “target,” “project,” “contemplate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this quarterly report and are subject to a number of important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including risks and uncertainties relating to:
our financial and business performance;
our ability to realize benefits from the acquisition of GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. on August 15, 2022, as discussed elsewhere in this report including in Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors);
our ability to realize benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and our ability to grow and manage growth profitably;
our ability to realize the benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and our ability to grow and manage growth profitably;
changes in our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans;
our product development timeline and expected start of production;
the implementation, market acceptance and success of our business model;
our ability to scale in a cost-effective manner;
developments relating to our competitors and industry;
the impact of health epidemics, including the Covid-19 pandemic, on our business and the actions we may take in response thereto;
our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection, and not infringe on the rights of the intellectual property rights others;
our status as an emerging growth company (as defined by U.S. federal law);
our future capital requirements and sources and uses of cash;
our ability to obtain funding for our operations;
our business, expansion plans and opportunities;
the outcome of any known and unknown litigation and regulatory proceedings; and
the risks and uncertainties described in the summary below, and in our annual report on Form 10-K in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

Because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. The events and circumstances reflected in our forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Moreover, we operate in an evolving environment. Some of these risks and uncertainties may in the future be amplified by events we do not expect or cannot predict. Additionally, new risk factors and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all risk factors and uncertainties. As a result of these factors, the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report may not prove to be accurate.

Except as required by applicable law, we do not plan to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this quarterly report, whether as a result of any new information, future events, changed circumstances or otherwise. You





should read this quarterly report completely, and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.





SUMMARY OF RISK FACTORS
The below summary of risk factors provides an overview of many of the risks we are exposed to in the normal course of our business activities. As a result, the below summary risks do not contain all of the information that may be important to you, and you should read the summary risks together with the more detailed and complete discussion of risks set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K and in Part II, Item 1A of this and our other quarterly reports on Form 10‑Q.
Consistent with the foregoing, we are exposed to a variety of risks, including risks associated with the following:
Risks Related to Our Business and Operations
Our success and future revenue depend on our ability to achieve design wins and to convince our current and prospective end customers to design our products into their product offerings.
To date we have been successful in introducing our leading-edge GaN power IC technology in mobile charging applications, such as wall chargers and adapters for mobile phones and laptop computers, and on motor drives for home appliances and industrial applications, where we believe we have achieved a market-leading position in GaN power ICs. Growth in demand for our products depends on achieving similar successes in other markets where we believe our technology provides comparable advantages, including consumer electronics, data center, solar and EV. Although we believe we are on track in these efforts, no assurance can be given that we will succeed in similarly displacing legacy silicon solutions in these other target markets.
Our recent acquisition of GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. (“GeneSiC”) is our first significant acquisition. We are devoting, and expect to continue to devote, significant time and attention to integrating GeneSiC with our existing operations teams. Given our relatively small size and relative inexperience with acquisitions, we expect to face challenges which present a number of risks to achieving the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. Our post-acquisition revenue, expenses, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected as a result.
Since we have significant operations and revenues in China, our business development plans, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected by significant political, social and economic developments in China, including governmental or regulatory changes.
We rely on a single third-party wafer fabrication facility for the fabrication of semiconductor wafers for GaN ICs and a separate third-party wafer fabrication facility for the fabrication of semiconductor wafers SiC MOSFETs and on a limited number of suppliers of other materials, and the failure of either of these facilities or any of these suppliers or additional suppliers to continue to produce wafers or other materials on a timely basis could harm our business and our financial results.
Increased costs of wafers and materials, or shortages in wafers and materials, could increase our costs of operations and our business could be harmed. Raw material price fluctuations can increase the cost of our products, impact our ability to meet end customer commitments, and may adversely affect our results of operations.
We are dependent on a limited number of distributors and end customers. The loss of, or a significant disruption in the relationships with any of these distributors or end customers, could significantly reduce our revenue and adversely impact our operating results. In addition, if we are unable to expand or further diversify our end customer base, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could suffer.
Because we do not have long-term purchase commitments with our end customers, orders may be cancelled, reduced, or rescheduled with little or no notice, which in turn exposes us to inventory risk, and may cause our business, financial results and future prospects to be harmed.
The complexity of our products could result in unforeseen delays or expenses from undetected defects, errors or bugs in hardware or software which could reduce the market adoption of our products, damage our reputation with current or prospective end customers and adversely affect our operating costs.
We may experience difficulties in transitioning to new wafer fabrication process technologies or in achieving higher levels of design integration, which may result in reduced manufacturing yields, delays in product deliveries and increased costs.
From time to time, we may rely on strategic partnerships, joint ventures and alliances for manufacturing and research and development. However, we may not control these partnerships and joint ventures, and actions taken by any of our partners or the termination of these partnerships or joint ventures could adversely affect our business.
We may pursue mergers, acquisitions, investments and joint ventures, which could divert our management’s attention or otherwise disrupt our operations and adversely affect our results of operations.






Tax-Related Risks
We could be subject to domestic or international changes in tax laws, tax rates or the adoption of new tax legislation, or we could otherwise have exposure to additional tax liabilities, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition or future profitability.
Legacy Navitas is a tax resident of, and is subject to tax in, both the United States and Ireland. While we intend to pursue relief from double taxation under the double tax treaty between the United States and Ireland, there can be no assurance that such efforts will be successful. Accordingly, the status of Legacy Navitas as a tax resident in the U.S. and Ireland may result in an increase in our cash tax obligations and effective tax rate, which increase may be material.
Any adjustment to the purchase price of the assets that were transferred pursuant to the restructuring of Legacy Navitas in 2020 could adversely impact our tax position.
As a result of the plans to expand our business operations, including to jurisdictions in which tax laws may not be favorable, our obligations may change or fluctuate, become significantly more complex or become subject to greater risk of examination by taxing authorities, any of which could adversely affect our after-tax profitability and financial results.
Our ability to use net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes may be limited in connection with the Business Combination or other ownership changes.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property
We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights. If we fail to adequately enforce or defend our intellectual property rights, our business may be harmed.
We may not be able to obtain additional patents and the legal protection afforded by any additional patents may not adequately cover the full scope of our business or permit us to gain or keep competitive advantage.
If we infringe or misappropriate, or are accused of infringing or misappropriating, the intellectual property rights of third parties, we may incur substantial costs or be prevented from being able to commercialize new products.
Our ability to design and introduce new products in a timely manner is dependent upon third-party IP, including third party and “open source” software.

Risks Related to Owning Our Common Stock
Concentration of ownership among existing executive officers, directors and their affiliates, including the investment funds they represent, may prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.
If securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our business or if they downgrade our stock or our sector, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The issuance of additional capital stock in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, our stock incentive plans or otherwise by us could dilute the ownership and voting power of our stockholders.
Our management has limited public company experience. The obligations associated with being a public company involve significant expenses and require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from our business operations and if we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to remedy these material weaknesses, or if we fail to establish and maintain effective internal controls, we may be unable to produce timely and accurate financial statements, and we may conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, which could adversely impact our investors’ confidence and our stock price.
We may issue a substantial number of additional shares under our employee equity incentive plans.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
On May 6, 2021, Navitas Semiconductor Limited, a private company limited by shares organized under the laws of Ireland (“Navitas Ireland”) and domesticated in the State of Delaware as Navitas Semiconductor Ireland, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Navitas Delaware” and, together with Navitas Ireland, “Legacy Navitas”), entered into a business combination agreement and plan of reorganization (the “Business Combination Agreement” or “BCA”) with Live Oak Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation (“Live Oak”). Pursuant to the BCA, among other transactions consummated on October 19, 2021 (collectively, the “Business Combination”), Live Oak acquired all of the capital stock of Navitas Ireland (other than the Navitas Ireland Restricted Shares, as defined below) by means of a tender offer, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Live Oak merged with and into Navitas Delaware, with Navitas Delaware surviving the merger. As a result, Legacy Navitas became a wholly owned subsidiary of Live Oak effective October 19, 2021. At the closing of the Business Combination, Live Oak changed its name to Navitas Semiconductor Corporation.
References to the “Company” in these financial statements refer to Legacy Navitas and its predecessors before the consummation of the Business Combination, or to Navitas Semiconductor Corporation after the Business Combination, as the context suggests.
The Company was founded in 2013 and has since been developing ultra-efficient gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductors. The Company presently operates as a product design house that contracts the manufacturing of its chips and packaging to partner suppliers. Navitas maintains its operations around the world, including the United States, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Belgium, China, Taiwan, Thailand and the Philippines, with principal executive offices in Torrance, California.
Reorganization
Navitas Semiconductor USA, Inc. (f/k/a Navitas Semiconductor, Inc., “Navitas U.S.”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 25, 2013. In 2020 Navitas U.S. initiated a restructuring to streamline its worldwide legal entity structure and more efficiently align its business operations (the “Restructuring”). The Restructuring introduced wholly owned subsidiaries in Hong Kong and China as well as the addition of Legacy Navitas, an entity registered in Ireland and the U.S., as the parent of Navitas U.S. and the other Navitas subsidiaries. In connection with the Restructuring, effective September 1, 2020, Legacy Navitas acquired certain intellectual property and other intangible assets from Navitas U.S. and, after the Restructuring, contracts directly with customers. The transfer of intellectual property and other intangible assets by Navitas U.S. to Legacy Navitas in connection with the Restructuring was among entities within the same consolidated group and, as a result, did not result in any gain or loss to the Company. Legacy Navitas is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is a tax resident in both Ireland and the United States. See Note 14, Provision for Income Taxes, for more information.
Business combination
Pursuant to the terms of the BCA, the Business Combination was consummated (the “Closing”) on October 19, 2021 (the “Closing Date”) by means of (i) a tender offer to acquire the entire issued share capital of Navitas Ireland (other than Navitas Ireland Restricted Shares (as defined below)) in exchange for the Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below) (the “Tender Offer”) and (ii) the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of Live Oak (“Merger Sub”) with and into Navitas Delaware (the “Merger”), with Navitas Delaware surviving the Merger. See the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022 for further information.

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although Live Oak issued shares for outstanding equity interests of Legacy Navitas in the Business Combination, Live Oak was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Legacy Navitas issuing stock for the net assets of Live Oak, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Live Oak were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination are those of Navitas.

For all periods presented, unless stated otherwise, references to Legacy Navitas common shares and options for common shares outstanding before the Closing and related per share amounts have been retroactively restated to give effect to the reverse recapitalization, specifically, the Exchange Ratio of 1.0944 shares to 1 at Closing.

quantities for Legacy Navitas convertible preferred stock related to balances or activity before the Closing reflect the historical quantities and are not adjusted for the Exchange Ratio.
Acquisitions
In June 2022, the Company acquired VDDTech for $1.9 million in cash and stock, and in August 2022 the Company acquired GeneSiC for $246.2 million in cash and stock. See Note 17, Business Combinations, for more information.

Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position, cash flows and stockholders’ equity (deficit). Certain footnote disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC) rules and regulations relating to interim financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022. Except as further described below, there have been no significant changes in the Company’s accounting policies from those disclosed in its annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of a Former Joint Venture, an entity in which the Company has a controlling interest (see Note 18, Noncontrolling Interest). The Company reports noncontrolling interests of the consolidated entities as a component of equity separate from the Company’s equity. All material inter-company transactions between and among the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated in the consolidation. The Company’s net income (loss) excludes income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interests.

Basis of consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned or majority-owned subsidiaries and entities in which the Company is deemed to have a direct or indirect controlling financial interest based on either a variable interest model or voting interest model. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Business Combinations

We account for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting, in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. The acquisition method requires identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized and measured at fair value on the acquisition date, which is the date that the acquirer obtains control of the acquired business. The amount by which the fair value of consideration transferred exceeds the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill.

The determination of estimated fair value requires us to make significant estimates and assumptions. These fair value determinations require judgment and involve the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including assumptions with respect to future cash inflows and outflows, discount rates, and asset lives, among other items. As a result, we may record adjustments to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) with the corresponding offset to goodwill.

Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as they are incurred.

Valuation of Contingent Consideration Resulting from a Business Combination

In connection with certain acquisitions, we may be required to pay future consideration that is contingent upon the achievement of specified milestone events. We record contingent consideration resulting from a business combination at its fair value on the acquisition date. Each quarter thereafter, we revalue these obligations and record increases or decreases in their fair value within our Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) until such time as the specified milestone achievement period is complete.

Increases or decreases in fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities can result from updates to assumptions such as the expected timing or probability of achieving the specified milestones. Significant judgment is employed in determining these assumptions as of the acquisition date and for each subsequent period. Updates to assumptions could have a significant impact on our results of operations in any given period. Actual results may differ from estimates.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (ASC 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), and also issued subsequent amendments under ASU 2019-10 and ASU 2020-05 (collectively ASC 842). On January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 842 and the related amendments. ASC 842 requires lessees to (i) recognize a right of use asset and a lease liability that is measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, on the consolidated balance sheets, (ii) recognize a single lease cost, calculated over the lease term on a straight-line basis and (iii) classify lease related cash payments within operating and financing activities. The Company recognized approximately $1.6 million of operating lease right-of-use assets and $1.7 million operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets upon adoption on January 1, 2022.

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB amended guidance related to impairment of financial instruments as part of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with an expected credit loss model for which a company recognizes an allowance based on the estimate of expected credit loss. This ASU requires entities to measure the impairment of certain financial instruments, including accounts receivable, based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. For non-public business entities, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted, and will be effective for the Company beginning in 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

5. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The accounting guidance on fair value measurements clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets in active markets; (Level 2) inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions. This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value.
The short-term nature of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, debt and current liabilities causes each of their carrying values to approximate fair value for all periods presented. Cash equivalents classified as Level 1 instruments were $12.6 million and $159.6 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

6. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLES

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Intangible assets are measured at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date and may be subject to adjustment within the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the assets are impaired.

7. DEBT OBLIGATIONS
On April 29, 2020, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with a new bank (the “Term Loan”), which provides for term advances up to $8.0 million. The loan is divided into three term advances, First Term Advance, Second Term Advance and Third Term Advance. The First Term Advance has a maximum available amount of $6.0 million. The Second Term Advance has a maximum available amount of $1.0 million and is subject to the Company receiving aggregate net proceeds from Series B-2 Preferred Stock of $29.8 million by no later than September 30, 2020. The Third Term Advance has a maximum available amount of $1.0 million and is subject to the Company receiving aggregate net proceeds from Series B-2 Preferred Stock of $39.9 million by no later than September 30, 2020. The Term Loan bears interest at a rate equal to the greater of (i) US Prime Rate plus 0.75% or (ii) 5.5% and is collateralized by all assets of the Company. As of September 30, 2022, the interest rate was 6.3%. The loan is payable in monthly installments beginning September 1, 2021 with a final maturity date of January 1, 2024. Concurrent with the execution of the Term Loan, the Company paid off the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest on its then-existing long-term debt (which bore interest at 5% at December 31, 2019) with a different bank, fully satisfying its obligations. On August 1, 2021, the Company drew down $2.0 million, the maximum available amount under the Second Term Advance and Third Term Advance.
In connection with execution of the Term Loan, the Company issued warrants to the bank (see Note 10, Warrant Liability). The fair value of the warrants at the date of issuance was $16 and was recorded as debt discount, subject to amortization using the effective interest rate method over the term of the loan.
Amortization of debt discount and issuance costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $3 and $7, respectively. Amortization of debt discount and issuance costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $3 and $9, respectively. Amortization of debt discount and issuance costs includes the write-off of unamortized costs as of the date that the prior term loan was extinguished in 2020.

9. SHARE BASED COMPENSATION:
 Equity Incentive Plans

The 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, initially adopted by the Company’s board of directors on August 5, 2020 as an amendment and restatement of the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (“2013 Plan”), was amended and restated at the Closing of the Business Combination as the Amended and Restated Navitas Semiconductor Limited 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”). The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock unit (RSU) awards, stock appreciation rights, and other stock awards to employees, directors and consultants. Pursuant to the 2020 Plan, the exercise price for incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options is generally at least 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. Options generally vest over 48 months measured from the date of grant. Options generally expire no later than ten years after the date of grant, subject to earlier termination upon an optionee’s cessation of employment or service.

Under the terms of the 2020 Plan, the Company is authorized to issue 18,899,285 shares of common stock pursuant to awards under the 2020 Plan. As of October 19, 2021, the Company has issued an aggregate of 11,276,706 stock options and non-statutory options to its employees and consultants and 4,525,344 shares of restricted stock to employees, directors and consultants under the 2020 Plan. No awards have or will be issued under the 2020 Plan after October 19, 2021. Shares of Common Stock subject to awards under the 2020 Plan that are forfeited, expire or lapse after October 19, 2021 will become authorized for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2021 Plan (as defined below).
The Navitas Semiconductor Corporation 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was adopted by the Company’s board of directors on August 17, 2021 and adopted and approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Special Meeting on October 12, 2021. Under the terms of the 2021 Plan, the Company is authorized to issue, pursuant to awards granted under the 2021 Plan, (a) up to 16,334,527 shares of Common Stock; plus (b) up to 15,802,050 shares of Common

Stock subject to awards under the 2020 Plan that are forfeited, expire or lapse after October 19, 2021; plus (c) an annual increase, effective as of the first day of each fiscal year up to and including January 1, 2031, equal to the lesser of (i) 4% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the conclusion of the Company’s immediately preceding fiscal year, or (ii) such amount, if any, as the board of directors may determine.

Stock-Based Compensation
At the Closing of the Business Combination on October 19, 2021, Legacy Navitas’ outstanding vested and unvested share-based compensation awards (as such terms are defined below) were converted into equity, RSUs or options in the Company at a ratio of 1.0944 to 1 share (the “Exchange Ratio”). Share and per share information below has been converted from historical disclosures based on the Exchange Ratio.
The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation in its financial statements over the requisite service period of the individual grants, which generally equals a four-year vesting period. The Company uses estimates of volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield in determining the fair value of these awards and the amount of compensation expense to recognize. The Company uses the straight-line method to amortize stock awards granted over the requisite service period of the award, which may be explicit or derived, unless market or performance conditions result in a graded attribution.

The following table summarizes the stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Selling, general and administrative10,54713336,37812,904
Total stock-based compensation expense$15,774 $201 $52,136 $14,765 

Stock Options

Generally, stock options granted under the Plans have ten year terms and vest 1/4th on the anniversary of the vesting commencement date and 1/48th monthly thereafter. Stock options with performance vesting conditions begin to vest upon achievement of the performance condition. Expense is recognized beginning in the period in which performance is considered probable.

The fair value of incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options issued was estimated using the Black-Scholes model. The Company did not grant any awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Restricted Stock Units

On August 25, 2021, Legacy Navitas granted an aggregate of 4,135,000 Legacy Navitas RSUs under the 2020 Plan to certain members of senior management pursuant to restricted stock unit agreements (collectively, the “RSU Agreements”). At the Closing of the Business Combination, these Legacy Navitas RSUs were assumed by the Company and converted at the Exchange Ratio into RSUs to acquire an aggregate of 4,525,344 shares of common stock. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of common stock of the Company, subject to the vesting and other terms and conditions set forth in the RSU Agreements and the 2020 Plan. 3,830,400 of these RSU awards are subject to vesting in three equal installments over a three-year period, subject to the occurrence of an IPO (which includes the Business Combination) and certain valuation targets, and subject to accelerated vesting based on the satisfaction of certain stock price targets. 547,200 of these RSUs were subject to vesting on the six-month anniversary of the grant date, subject to the occurrence of an IPO (which included the Business Combination) and certain valuation targets. 57,456 of these RSUs were subject to vesting upon the occurrence of an IPO (which included the Business Combination), while the remaining 90,288 RSUs are subject to vesting as specified by an RSU Agreement over a period of approximately three years. As of October 19, 2021, the IPO performance condition had been met as a result of the completion of the Business Combination.

A summary of RSUs outstanding as of September 30, 2022, and activity during the nine months then ended, is presented below:

accrued as of September 30, 2022. Based on the closing share price of the Company’s Class A Common Stock of $4.85 on September 30, 2022, approximately 783,505 shares would have been issued, however, the actual number of shares will be based on the share price at the date of settlement.
Unvested Earnout Shares
A portion of the earnout shares may be issued to individuals with unvested equity awards. While the payout of these shares requires achievement of the volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock, the individuals are required to complete the remaining service period associated with these unvested equity awards to be eligible to receive the earnout shares. As a result, these unvested earn-out shares are equity-classified awards and have an aggregated grant date fair value of $19.1 million or $11.52 per share. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized $4.3 million and $11.5 million of stock-based compensation expense for the vesting of earnout shares, respectively. At September 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested earnout shares totaled $1.8 million. The weighted-average period over which this remaining compensation cost is expected be recognized is 0.5 years. Refer to Note 11, Earnout Liability.
10. WARRANT LIABILITY
In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, holders of Live Oak Class A ordinary shares automatically received Class A Common Stock of the Company, and holders of Live Oak warrants automatically received 13,100,000 warrants of the Company with substantially identical terms (“the Warrants”). At the Closing, 8,433,333 Live Oak public warrants automatically converted into 8,433,333 warrants to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at $11.50 per share (the “Public Warrants”), and 4,666,667 Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor and certain permitted transferees, each exercisable for one Class A ordinary share of Live Oak at $11.50 per share, automatically converted into warrants to purchase one share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at $11.50 per share with substantially identical terms as the Public Warrants. On February 4, 2022, the Company gave notice that it would redeem all of the Warrants, as further described below.

The Warrants were exercisable only during the period commencing December 7, 2021 (12 months after the consummation of Live Oak’s initial public offering) and ending on the earlier of October 19, 2026 (five years after the Closing of the Business Combination) or, in the event of redemption, the corresponding redemption date. The Company had the right to redeem not less than all of the outstanding Public Warrants on 30 days’ notice, at a redemption price of $0.01 per Warrant, if the reported closing price of the Common Stock was at least $18.00 per share for any 20 of 30 trading days ending three business days before the notice of redemption, subject to certain other conditions. The Company also had the right to redeem not less than all of the outstanding Public Warrants on 30 days’ notice, at a redemption price of $0.10 per Warrant, if the reported closing price of the Common Stock was at least $10.00 per share for any 20 of 30 trading days ending three business days before the notice of redemption, subject to certain other conditions. If the Company elected to exercise the latter right to redeem the Public Warrants for $0.10 per Warrant, and the reported closing price of the Common Stock was less than $18.00 per share for any 20 of 30 trading days ending three business days before the notice of redemption, the Company was required to concurrently redeem the Private Placement Warrants on the same terms. In addition, in such event, holders of Warrants subject to redemption would have the right to exercise their Warrants on a “cashless” basis, whereby they would receive a fractional number of shares of Common Stock per Warrant exercised before the redemption date, based on the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the 10 trading days following notice of redemption (the “Redemption Fair Market Value”) and the time period between the redemption date and the original expiration of the Warrants in the absence of redemption.

On February 4, 2022, the Company issued a notice of redemption that it would redeem, at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on March 7, 2022 (the “Redemption Date”), all of the Company’s outstanding Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock that were governed by the Warrant Agreement, dated as of December 2, 2020 (the “Warrant Agreement”), between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), at a redemption price of $0.10 per Warrant (the “Redemption Price”). On February 22, 2022, the Company issued a notice that the “Redemption Fair Market Value,” determined in accordance with the Warrant Agreement based on the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the 10 trading days immediately following the date on which notice of redemption was sent, was $10.33 and, accordingly, that holders exercising Warrants on a “cashless” basis before the Redemption Date would receive 0.261 shares of Common Stock per Warrant exercised. The Warrants were exercisable by their holders until immediately before 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date, either (i) on a cash basis, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share of Common Stock, or (ii) on a

“cashless” basis in which the exercising holder would receive 0.261 shares of Common Stock per Warrant exercised. Between December 7, 2021 (the date the Warrants became exercisable) and the Redemption Date, an aggregate of 12,722,773 Warrants were exercised (including 17,785 on a cash basis and 12,704,988 on a “cashless” basis); an aggregate of 3,333,650 shares of Common Stock were issued upon exercise of the Warrants (including 17,785 shares in respect of cash exercises and 3,315,865 shares in respect of “cashless” exercises). A total of 377,187 Warrants remained outstanding and unexercised at the Redemption Date and were redeemed for an aggregate Redemption Price of $38. Prior to the redemption date, the warrants had an aggregate fair value of $81.4 million which resulted in a gain of $0 and $51.8 million due to the decrease in the fair value of the warrant liability in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. There were no outstanding warrants as of September 30, 2022.

11. EARNOUT LIABILITY
Certain of the Company’s stockholders are entitled to receive up to 10,000,000 Earnout Shares of the Company’s Class A common stock if the Earnout Milestones are met. The Earnout Milestones represents three independent criteria, which each entitles the eligible stockholders to 3,333,333 earn-out shares per milestone met. Each Earnout Milestone is considered met if at any time 150 days following the Business Combination and prior to October 19, 2026, the volume weighted average price of the Company’s Class A common stock is greater than or equal to $12.50, $17.00 or $20.00 for any twenty trading days within any thirty trading day period, respectively. Further, the Earnout Milestones are also considered to be met if the Company undergoes a Sale. A Sale is defined as the occurrence of any of the following: (i) engage in a “going private” transaction pursuant to Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act or otherwise cease to be subject to reporting obligations under Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; (ii) Class A common stock cease to be listed on a national security exchange, other than for the failure to satisfy minimum listing requirements under applicable stock exchange rules; or (iii) change of ownership (including a merger or consolidation) or approval of a plan for complete liquidation or dissolution.

These earnout shares have been categorized into two components: (i) the “Vested Shares” - those associated with stockholders with vested equity at the closing of the Business Combination that will be earned upon achievement of the Earnout Milestones and (ii) the “Unvested Shares” - those associated with stockholders with unvested equity at the closing of the Business Combination that will be earned over the remaining service period with the Company on their unvested equity shares and upon achievement of the Earnout Milestones. The Vested Shares are classified as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and the Unvested Shares are equity-classified share-based compensation to be recognized over time (see Note 9, Share-based Compensation). The earnout liability was initially measured at fair value at the closing of the Business Combination and subsequently remeasured at the end of each reporting period. The change in fair value of the earn-out liability is recorded as part of Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations.

The estimated fair value of the earnout liability was determined using a Monte Carlo analysis of 20,000 simulations of the future path of the Company’s stock price over the earnout period. The assumptions utilized in the calculation are based on the achievement of certain stock price milestones including projected stock price, volatility, and risk-free rate. The valuation model utilized the following assumptions:
September 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Risk-free interest rate
4.15 %1.23 %
Equity volatility rate
62.50 %55.00 %

At the closing of the Business Combination on October 19, 2021, the earnout liability had an initial fair value of $96,069, which was recorded as a long-term liability and a reduction to additional paid in capital in the consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the earnout liability had a fair value of $22.6 million and $134.2 million, respectively which resulted in a loss in the fair value of the earnout liability of $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 due to the increase in the fair value of the earnout liability during the third quarter of 2022 and a gain due to the decrease in the fair value of the earnout liability of $112.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

GeneSiC Earnout Liability

In connection with the merger agreement of GeneSiC Semiconductor as discussed in Note 17, the Company will pay additional contingent consideration of up to $25.0 million, in the form of cash earnout payments to the Sellers and certain employees of GeneSiC, conditioned on the achievement of substantial revenue and gross profit margin targets for the
GeneSiC business over the four fiscal quarters beginning on October 1, 2022 and ending on September 30, 2023. The estimated fair value of the earnout liability was determined using a Monte Carlo analysis of 20,000 simulations assuming that GeneSiC’s revenue and gross profit margins follow a geometric Browian motion over the earnout period. The valuation model utilized an assumption on the risk-free interest rate of 3.1% and equity volatility rate of 99.9%. As of September 30, 2022, the GeneSiC Earnout liability was $0.6 million and is recorded in Earnout Liability on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
12. SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS AND CREDIT CONCENTRATIONS
Customer Concentration
Majority of the Company’s revenues are attributable to sales of the Company’s products to distributors of electronic components. These distributors sell the Company’s products to a range of end users, including OEMs and merchant power supply manufacturers.

The following customers represented 10% or more of the Company’s net revenues for the respective three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively:

*Total customer net revenues was less than 10% of total net revenues.

Revenues by Geographic Area
The Company considers the domicile of its end customers, rather than the distributors it sells to directly, to be the basis for attributing revenues from external customers to individual countries. Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, were attributable to end customers in the following countries:

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consisted principally of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. At times, such amounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on cash or cash equivalents held at financial institutions. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

The following customers represented 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable.

Distributor A25 %44 %
Distributor B16 %14 %
Distributor C16 %14 %
*Total customer accounts receivable was less than 10% of net account receivables.

Concentration of Supplier Risk

The Company currently relies on a single foundry to produce wafers for GaN ICs and a separate single foundry to produce SiC MOSFETs. Loss of the relationship with either of these suppliers could have a substantial negative effect on the Company. Additionally, the Company relies on a limited number of third-party subcontractors and suppliers for testing, packaging and certain other tasks. Disruption or termination of supply sources or subcontractors, including due to the COVID-19 pandemic or natural disasters such as an earthquake or other causes, could delay shipments and could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Although there are generally alternate sources for these materials and services, qualification of the alternate sources could cause delays sufficient to have a material adverse effect on the Company. A significant amount of the Company’s third-party subcontractors and suppliers, including third-party foundry that supply wafers for GaN ICs, are located in Taiwan. A significant amount of the Company’s assembly and test operations are conducted by third-party contractors in Taiwan, Thailand and the Philippines.

13. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE:
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average shares of common stock and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common equivalent shares included in this calculation consist of dilutive shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of outstanding common stock options, the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, the assumed issuance of awards for contingently issuable performance-based awards, as computed using the treasury stock method. Performance-based restricted stock units and restricted stock awards are included in the number of shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share after evaluating the applicable performance criteria as of period end and under the assumption the end of the reporting period was the end of the contingency period, and the effect is dilutive. Restricted stock awards are eligible to receive all dividends declared on the Company’s common shares during the vesting period; however, such dividends are not paid until the restrictions lapse. The Company has no plans to declare dividends.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, potentially dilutive securities have been excluded as these securities contain performance metric(s) which have not be satisfied as of September 30, 2022.
(2) Balances as of September 30, 2022 retroactively restated to give effect to the October 19, 2021 reverse recapitalization.

14. PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES:
Income Taxes

The Company determined the income tax provision for interim periods using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising during the quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was (98.9)% and 0.2%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 was (38.5)% and 0.2%, respectively. The effective tax rates for 2022 differ from the prior year primarily as a result of the valuation allowance release described below. In each quarter, the Company updates its estimated annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is recorded in that quarter. The Company’s quarterly income tax provision and quarterly estimate of the annual effective tax rate are subject to volatility due to several factors, including our ability to accurately predict the proportion of our income (loss) before provision for income taxes in multiple jurisdictions, the tax effects of our stock-based compensation, and the effects of its foreign entities.
At December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $100.1 million of federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and approximately $82,583 of State NOL carryforwards expiring in varying amounts through 2037, with the exception of Federal NOLs arising from the years ended after December 31, 2017 that may be carried forward indefinitely. Realization of the NOL carryforwards is dependent on the Company generating sufficient taxable income prior to expiration of the NOL carryforwards and is also potentially subject to usage limitations due to changes in the Company’s ownership. As of December 31, 2021 and through the second quarter of 2022, the Company had a full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets. As a result of the GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. acquisition, (see Note 17, Business Combinations), the Company released $9.9 million of U.S. valuation allowance during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The release was attributable to a preliminary estimate of $23.2 million of net deferred tax liabilities recorded on GeneSiC’s opening balance sheets that offset certain U.S. net deferred tax assets of Navitas. As of September 30, 2022, the Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance on the remaining deferreds as the Company believes that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be fully realized.

The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in operating expenses. No such interest and penalties were recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
15. COMMITMENTS and CONTINGENCIES

Purchase Obligations
At September 30, 2022, the Company had no non-cancelable purchase obligations that were due beyond one year.

Employment agreements

The Company has entered into agreements with certain employees to provide severance payments to the employees for termination for reasons other than cause, death or disability. Aggregate payments that would be required to be made in the event of termination under the agreements are approximately $2.1 million. At September 30, 2022, no terminations have occurred or are expected to occur pursuant to these arrangements and, accordingly, no termination benefits have been accrued.
Indemnifications
The Company sells products to its distributors under contracts, collectively referred to as Distributor Sales Agreements (DSA). Each DSA contains the relevant terms of the contractual arrangement with the distributor, and generally includes certain provisions for indemnifying the distributor against losses, expenses, and liabilities from damages
26

($ in thousands, except per share amounts and where noted)


that may be awarded against the distributor in the event the Company’s products are found to infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third party (Customer Indemnification). The DSA generally limits the scope of and remedies for the Customer Indemnification obligations in a variety of industry-standard respects, including, but not limited to, limitations based on time and geography, and a right to replace an infringing product. The Company also, from time to time, has granted a specific indemnification right to individual customers.
The Company believes its internal development processes and other policies and practices limit its exposure related to such indemnifications. In addition, the Company requires its employees to sign a proprietary information and inventions agreement, which assigns the rights to its employees’ development work to the Company. To date, the Company has not had to reimburse any of its distributors or end customers for any losses related to these indemnifications and no material claims were outstanding as of September 30, 2022. For several reasons, including the lack of prior indemnification claims and the lack of a monetary liability limit for certain infringement cases, the Company cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnifications.
Legal proceedings and contingencies
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company may become involved in lawsuits, or end customers and distributors may make claims against the Company. The Company makes a provision for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company is not currently subject to any pending actions or regulatory proceedings that either individually or in the aggregate are expected to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

17. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Acquisition of VDDTech srl

On June 10, 2022, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Navitas Semiconductor Limited, acquired all of the stock of VDDTECH srl, a private Belgian company (“VDDTech”) for approximately $1.9 million in cash and stock. Based in Mont-saint-Guibert, Belgium, VDDTech creates advanced digital-isolators for next-generation power conversion. VDDTech’s net assets and operating results since the acquisition date are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and were not material. Among shares issued in the transaction, the Company issued approximately 113,000 restricted shares that are subject to time based vesting and issued approximately 151,000 restricted shares that are subject to time and performance based vesting over the next four and three years, respectively. These restricted shares are subject to certain individuals maintaining employment with the Company and, therefore, are accounted for under ASC 718.

The Company recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible assets and liabilities of $1.2 million was recorded as goodwill as of June 30, 2022. Subsequent to June 30, 2022, a preliminary valuation of the intangible assets acquired was calculated at $1.2 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company reclassed the goodwill to an intangible asset. Upon a final determination of the purchase price and the final valuation of the intangible assets acquired, primarily including in-process R&D, the Company will allocate the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and adjust the excess purchase price allocated to goodwill as needed.

The fair value of the in-process R&D was estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method, an income approach (Level 3), which converts projected revenues and costs into cash flows. To reflect the fact that certain other assets contribute to the cash flows generated, the returns for these contributory assets were removed to arrive at estimated cash flows solely attributable to the acquired technology, which were discounted at a rate of 18% to determine the fair value.
Acquisition of GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc.

On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. for approximately $146.3 million of equity, $99.3 million of cash consideration, and potential future cash earn-out payments of up to an aggregate of $25.0 million. GeneSiC is a silicon carbide (“SiC”) pioneer with deep expertise in SiC power device design and process, based in Dulles, Virginia. The future earn-out payments were fair valued at $0.6 million, for a total merger consideration of $246.2 million. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). The Company has determined preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These values are subject to change as the Company performs additional reviews of the assumptions used.

The primary areas of the preliminary purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized relate to the fair values of certain tangible assets and liabilities acquired, certain legal matters, amounts for income taxes including deferred tax accounts, amounts for uncertain tax positions, and net operating loss carryforwards inclusive of associated limitations and valuation allowances, the determination of identifiable intangible assets and the final allocation of purchase price to goodwill. Additionally, finalized fair values associated with deferred tax accounts could have a material effect on the Company's estimated reversal of its consolidated U.S. valuation allowances recognized during the three month period ended December 31, 2022. See Note 14, Provision for Income Taxes, for further information. The Company expects to continue to obtain information to assist it in determining the fair values of the net assets acquired at the acquisition date during the measurement period.

The following tables summarize the preliminary purchase consideration and the preliminary purchase price allocation to estimated fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

Goodwill represents the excess of the merger price over the amounts assigned to the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, the final amount of the goodwill recorded could differ materially from the amount presented. Goodwill is primarily attributable to assembled workforce, market and expansion capabilities, expected synergies from integration and streamlining operational activities and other factors. Goodwill is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Total Intangibles$110,100 

The valuations of intangible assets incorporate significant unobservable inputs and require significant judgment and estimates, including the amount and timing of future cash flows. The Company recognized approximately $5.4 million of transaction costs in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. These costs are recorded in “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the consolidated statements of operations. The financial results of GeneSiC have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since the date of the acquisition.

The fair value of developed technology was estimated using the multi-period excess earnings method, an income approach (Level 3), which converts projected revenues and costs into cash flows. To reflect the fact that certain other assets contribute to the cash flows generated, the returns for these contributory assets were removed to arrive at estimated cash flows solely attributable to the acquired technology, which were discounted at a rate of 15% to determine the fair value.

The fair value of customer relationships was estimated using the distributor method, an income level approach (Level 3), which estimates the value of an asset based upon costs avoided through ownership of the asset. Estimated costs on projected revenues, excluding acquired contract backlog, were made using historical data pertaining to sales to new and existing customers. The cash flow impact of projected cost savings, primarily avoidance of legal costs pertaining to new customers and lower commission rates applicable to existing customers than new customers, were discounted at a rate of 16% to determine the fair value.

The fair value of the trade name and trademarks was estimated using the relief from royalty method, an income approach (Level 3), because of the licensing appeal of these assets, the Company estimated the benefit of the ownership as the relief form the royalty expense that would be incurred in the absence of ownership A royalty rate was applied to the projected revenues associated with the intangible asset to determine the amount of savings, which was at a rate of 16% to determine the fair value.

The fair value of the patents was estimated using the relief from royalty method, an income approach (Level 3), because of the licensing appeal of these assets, the Company estimated the benefit of the ownership as the relief form the royalty expense that would be incurred in the absence of ownership. A royalty rate was applied to the projected revenues associated with the intangible asset to determine the amount of savings, which was at a rate of 16% to determine the fair value.

The value of the non-competition agreement was estimated using the lost income method (Level 3), because the non-competition agreement prohibits the covenantor from competing with the Company, the fair value of the non-competition agreement can be determined by estimating cash flows that would be lost if the covenantors were to compete, we estimated a discount rate of 16% to determine the fair value.

Discount rates for each respective intangible asset were determined by accounting for the risk associated with each asset, including required technology development and customer acquisition required to support respective projections, the uncertainty of market success and the risk inherent with projected financial results. The estimated useful lives were determined by evaluating the expected economic and useful lives of the assets and of similar intangible assets from previous business combinations and adjusting accordingly after taking into account circumstances that may be unique to GeneSiC. Net tangible assets and intangibles assets assumed as well as goodwill recognized are presented as continuing operations in the consolidated balance sheets.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “we,” “us, or “our” refer to the business of Navitas and its subsidiaries. Throughout this section, unless otherwise noted, “Navitas” refers to Navitas Semiconductor Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries.
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under the “Summary of Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement About Forward-Looking Statements” sections and elsewhere in this quarterly report, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
Overview

Founded in 2013, Navitas is a U.S. based developer of gallium nitride power integrated circuits that provide superior efficiency, performance, size and sustainability relative to existing silicon technology. Our solutions offer faster charging, higher power density and greater energy savings compared to silicon-based power systems with the same output power. By unlocking this speed and efficiency, we believe we are leading a revolution in high-frequency, high-efficiency and high-density power electronics to electrify our world for a cleaner tomorrow. We maintain operations around the world, including the United States, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Belgium, China, Taiwan, Thailand and the Philippines, with principal executive offices in Torrance, California.
We design, develop and market gallium nitride (“GaN”) power integrated circuits (“ICs”) used in power conversion and charging. Power supplies incorporating our products may be used in a wide variety of electronics products including mobile phones, consumer electronics, data centers, solar inverters and electric vehicles. We utilize a fabless business model, working with third parties to manufacture, assemble and test our designs. Our fabless model allows us to run the business today with minimal capital expenditures.
Our go-to-market strategy is based on partnering with leading manufacturers and suppliers through focused product development, addressing both mainstream and emerging applications. We consider ourselves to be a pioneer in the GaN market with a proprietary, proven GaN power IC platform that is shipping in mass production to tier-1 companies including Samsung, Dell, Lenovo, LG, Xiaomi, OPPO, Amazon, vivo and Motorola. Most of the products we ship today are used primarily as components in mobile device chargers. Charger manufacturers we ship to today are worldwide, supporting major international mobile brands. Other emerging applications will also be addressed across the world.
In support of our technology leadership, we have formed relationships with numerous Tier 1 manufacturers and suppliers over the past eight years, gaining significant traction in mobile and consumer charging applications. Navitas GaN is now in mass production with 9 of the top 10 mobile OEMs across smartphone and laptops, and is in development with 10 out of 10. In addition, our supply chain partners have committed manufacturing capacity in excess of what we consider to be necessary to support our continued growth and expansion.
A core strength of our business lies in our industry leading IP position in GaN Power ICs. Navitas invented the first commercial GaN Power ICs. Today, we have over 165 patents that are issued or pending.
In addition to our comprehensive patent portfolio, our biggest proprietary advantage is our process design kit (PDK), the ‘how-to’ guide for Navitas designers to create new GaN based device and circuits. Our GaN power IC inventions and intellectual property translate across all of our target markets from mobile, consumer, EV, enterprise, and renewables. We evaluate various complementary technologies and look to improve our PDK, in order to keep introducing newer generations of GaN technology. In 2021 and the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we spent approximately 103% and 163%, respectively of our revenue on research and development. Navitas’ research and development activities are located primarily in the US and China. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately 138 full-time personnel in our research & development team, with approximately 55% with advanced degrees (PhD and MS).

Acquisition of GeneSiC

On August 15, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. (“GeneSiC”) for $146.3 million of equity, $99.3 million of cash consideration, and potential future earn-out payments of up to an aggregate of $25.0 million in cash. GeneSiC is a silicon carbide (“SiC”) pioneer with deep expertise in SiC power device design and process, based in Dulles, Virgnia. The future earn-out payments were fair valued at $0.6 million, for a total merger consideration of $246.2 million. GeneSiC’s net assets and operating results since the merger date are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively.

We recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets of $157.4 million was recorded as goodwill.

Acquisition of VDDTech

On June 10, 2022, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Navitas Semiconductor Limited, acquired all of the stock of VDDTECH srl, a private Belgian company (“VDDTech”), for approximately $1.9 million in cash and stock. Based in Mont-saint-Guibert, Belgium, VDDTech creates advanced digital-isolators for next-generation power conversion. VDDTech’s net assets and operating results since the acquisition date are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

We recorded a preliminary allocation of the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets of $1.2 million was recorded as goodwill. Subsequent to June 30, 2022 a preliminary valuation of the intangible assets acquired was calculated at $1.2 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company reclassed the goodwill to an intangible asset.
Business Combination and Reverse Recapitalization
On May 6, 2021, Navitas Semiconductor Limited (“Navitas Ireland”), a private company limited by shares organized under the Laws of Ireland and domesticated in the State of Delaware as Navitas Semiconductor Ireland, LLC, (“Navitas Delaware”, and together with Navitas Ireland, “Legacy Navitas”) a Delaware limited liability company, entered into a business combination agreement and plan of reorganization (the “Business Combination Agreement” or “BCA”) with Live Oak Acquisition Corp. II (“Live Oak”). Pursuant to the BCA, Live Oak acquired all of the capital stock of Navitas Ireland by means of a tender offer, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Live Oak merged with and into Navitas Delaware, with Navitas Delaware surviving the merger. As a result, Legacy Navitas became a wholly owned subsidiary of Live Oak effective October 19, 2021. At the closing of the Business Combination, Live Oak changed its name to Navitas Semiconductor Corporation.
The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with US GAAP. Under the guidance in ASC 805, Live Oak was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. We were deemed the accounting predecessor and the post-combination company is the successor SEC registrant, meaning that our financial statements for previous periods were disclosed in our annual report Form 10-K filed with the SEC filed on March 31, 2022. The Business Combination had a significant impact on our reported financial position and results as a consequence of the reverse recapitalization. The most significant change in our reported financial position and results of operations was net cash proceeds of $298 from the merger transaction, which included $173 in gross proceeds from the PIPE financing that was consummated in conjunction with the Business Combination. The increase in cash was offset by transaction costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination of approximately $25. Navitas expects to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things, directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees and additional internal and external accounting and legal and administrative resources, including increased audit and legal fees.

Results of Operations
Revenue
We design, develop and manufacture GaN ICs, SiC MOSFETs and Schottky MPS diodes that deliver best-in-class performance, ruggedness and quality. Our revenue represents the sale of semiconductors through specialized distributors to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), their suppliers and other end customers.
Our revenues fluctuate in response to a combination of factors, including the following:
our overall product mix and sales volumes;
gains and losses in market share and design win traction;
pace at which technology is adopted in our end markets;
the stage of our products in their respective life cycles;
the effects of competition and competitive pricing strategies;
availability of specialized field application engineering resources supporting demand creation and end customer adoption of new products;
achieving acceptable yields and obtaining adequate production capacity from our wafer foundries and assembly and test subcontractors;
market acceptance of our end customers’ products; governmental regulations influencing our markets; and
the global and regional economic cycles.
Our product revenue is recognized when the customer obtains control of the product and the timing of recognition is based on the contractual shipping terms of a contract. We provide a non-conformity warranty which is not sold separately and does not represent a separate performance obligation. The vast majority of our product revenue originates from sales shipped to customer locations in Asia.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of the cost of semiconductors purchased from subcontractors, including wafer fabrication, assembly, testing and packaging, manufacturing support costs, including labor and overhead (which includes depreciation and amortization) associated with such purchases, final test and wafer level yield fallout, inventory reserves, consumables, system and shipping costs. Cost of goods sold also includes compensation related to personnel associated with manufacturing.
Research and Development Expense
Costs related to research, design, and development of our products are expensed as incurred. Research and development expense consists primarily of pre-production costs related to the design and development of our products and technologies, including costs related to cash and share-based employee compensation, benefits and related costs of sustaining our engineering teams, project material costs, third party fees paid to consultants, prototype development expenses, and other costs incurred in the product design and development process.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Selling, general and administrative costs include employee compensation, including cash and share-based compensation and benefits for executive, finance, business operations, sales, field application engineers and other administrative personnel. In addition, it includes marketing and advertising, IT, outside legal, tax and accounting services, insurance, and occupancy costs and related overhead based on headcount. Selling, general and administrative costs are expensed as incurred.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021
Revenue

Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $10.2 million compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $4.6 million, or 82%. The increase reflects a combination of the Company’s customer growth trajectory, evolving from aftermarket customers to higher volume customers, and the accretive acquisition of GeneSiC. Total sales volumes increased 19%, from 6.0 million to 7.1 million units shipped, while the average selling price increased 53% to $1.43 per unit.
Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $9.9 million compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $6.8 million or 225%. The increase was primarily driven by significant revenue growth, acquisition of GeneSiC, which includes $0.5 million for step up in inventory valuation that was

Table of Contents
expensed during the quarter, and inventory reserves of $2.8 million, in addition to TSMC’s 20% wafer price increase which created a higher cost of goods sold.
Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 of $13.3 million increased by $7.5 million, or 130%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, driven by increases in stock based compensation, resulting in $5.2 million higher compensation costs, along with an increase of $1.9 million compensation costs related to growth in headcount as the Company develops products in Solar, Enterprise and EV and through its acquisition of GeneSiC. We expect research and development expense to continue to increase as we grow our headcount to support our expansion into new applications.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 of $24.5 million increased by $20.9 million, or 589%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, driven by increases in stock based compensation, resulting in $10.4 million higher compensation costs, along with an increase of $1.4 million increase in compensation costs related to growth in headcount. In addition, the Company incurred $7.7 million of transaction expenses and amortization of intangibles related to the acquisition of GeneSiC and a $1.1 million increase in other costs of growing the business. We expect selling, general and administrative costs to increase to support our growth and as a result of the increased costs for infrastructure required as a public company.

Other Income (Expense), net
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $638 compared to $75 net interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to the higher interest rate received on money markets funds.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $6.1 million loss from the change in fair value of our earn-out liabilities. Subsequent to the recognition of the earnout liability upon the consummation of the Business Combination on October 19, 2021, we remeasure the fair value of this liability at each reporting date. The increase in fair value of our earn-out liability of $6.1 million was primarily a result of the increase of the closing price of our Class A common stock listed on the Nasdaq, resulting in the increased in the estimated fair value of the earnout shares from $1.89 as of June 30, 2022 to $2.61 as of September 30, 2022.

Other expense primarily reflects our minority interest in the net loss of a joint venture through August 18, 2022..

Income tax benefit for the three months September 30, 2022 increased by $10,148 when compared to the three months September 30, 2021. As a result of the GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. acquisition, (see Note 17, Business Combinations), the Company released $9.9 million of U.S. valuation allowance during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The release was attributable to a preliminary estimate of $23.2 million of net deferred tax liabilities recorded on GeneSiC’s opening balance sheets that offset other U.S. net deferred tax assets.We expect our tax rate to remain close to zero in the near term due to full valuation allowances against deferred tax assets.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
Revenue

Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $25.6 million compared to $16.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $9.2 million, or 56%. The significant increase primarily reflected the Company’s customer growth trajectory, evolving from aftermarket customers to higher volume customers and the accretive acquisition of GeneSiC. Total sales volumes increasing 26%, from 17.5 million to 22.0 million units shipped, while the average selling price increased 24.2% to $1.16 per unit.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $18.7 million compared to $9.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an increase of $9.7 million or 108%. The increase was primarily driven by significant revenue growth, acquisition of GeneSiC, which includes $0.5 million for step up in inventory valuation that was expensed during the quarter, and inventory reserves of $2.8 million, in addition to TSMC’s 20% wafer price increase which created a higher cost of goods sold.
.
Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $36.4 million increased by $20.0 million, or 123%, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily driven by increases in

stock based compensation, resulting in $14.0 million higher compensation costs, along with an increase of $1.1 million in non-compensation costs related to new applications and reliability expenses devoted to next generation product development and $4.9 million in compensation costs related to growth in headcount as the Company develops products in Solar, Enterprise and EV. We expect research and development expense to continue to increase as we grow our headcount to support our expansion into new applications.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $63.0 million increased by $39.3 million, or 166%, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase is primarily due to a $23.5 million increase in stock-based compensation, and a $3.5 million increase in compensation costs related to growth in headcount. In addition, the Company incurred $7.7 million of transaction expenses and amortization related to the acquisition of GeneSiC and a $3.4 million increase in other costs of growing the business.. We expect selling, general and administrative costs to increase to support our growth and as a result of the increased costs for infrastructure required as a public company.

Other Income (Expense), net

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $666 thousand compared to $(199) thousand net interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, increased by 435%, primarily due to the higher interest rate received on cash equivalents.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $51.8 million gain from the change in fair value of our warrant liabilities, $112.2 million decrease in fair value of our earn out liabilities and $(1.2) million loss from an equity method investment, as follows:

i) Warrants: The change in fair value of our warrant liability is due to the Company issuing a notice of redemption on February 4, 2022 and the Company revaluing the liability just before the exercise and redemptions which resulted in a valuation change of $51.8 million.

ii) Earnout liability: Subsequent to the recognition of the earnout liability upon the consummation of the Business Combination on October 19, 2021, we remeasure the fair value of this liability at each reporting date. The decrease in fair value of our earn-out liability of $111.6 million was primarily a result of the increase of the closing price of our Class A common stock listed on the Nasdaq, resulting in the decline in the estimated fair value of the earnout shares from $16.09 as of December 31, 2021 to $2.61 as of September 30, 2022.

iii) Other expense primarily reflects our minority interest in the net loss of a joint venture through August 18, 2022..
Income Tax Benefit (Provision)
Income tax benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $9,899 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As a result of the GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. acquisition, (see Note 17, Business Combinations), the Company released $9.9 million of U.S. valuation allowance during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The release was attributable to a preliminary estimate of $23.2 million of net deferred tax liabilities recorded on GeneSiC’s opening balance sheets that offset other U.S. net deferred tax assets. We expect our tax rate to remain close to zero in the near term due to full valuation allowances against deferred tax assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary use of cash is to fund operating expenses, which consist primarily of research and development expenditures, working capital requirements related to inventory, accounts payable and accounts receivable, and selling, general and administrative expenditures. In addition, we use cash to fund our debt service obligations, and purchases of capital and software assets.
We expect to continue to incur net operating losses and negative cash flows from operations and we expect our research and development expenses, general and administrative expenses and capital expenditures will continue to increase.
38

Table of Contents
We expect our expenses and capital requirements to increase in connection with our ongoing initiatives to expand our operations, product offerings and end customer base.
Prior to the Business Combination, we derived our liquidity and capital resources primarily from the issuance and sale of convertible preferred stock. The term loan principal balance is payable in monthly installments beginning in September 2021.
As September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $124.8 million. We currently use cash to fund operations, meet working capital requirements, for capital expenditures and strategic investments. Post-Business Combination, the Company has additional access to capital resources through public market transactions and the historical focus on near-term working capital and liquidity has shifted to more strategic and forward-looking capital optimization plans. We believe that the influx of capital from the Business Combination is sufficient to finance our operations, working capital requirements and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.
We expect our operating and capital expenditures to increase as we increase headcount, expand our operations and grow our end customer base. If additional funds are required to support our working capital requirements, acquisitions or other purposes, we may seek to raise funds through additional debt financing or from other sources. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, the percentage ownership of our equity holders could be significantly diluted, and these newly issued securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing equity holders. If we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operating flexibility and would also require us to incur interest expense. We can provide no assurance that additional financing will be available at all or, if available, that we would be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us.

We derive liquidity primarily from debt and equity financing activities. As of September 30, 2022, our balance of cash and cash equivalents was $124.8 million, which is a decrease of $143.5 million or 53% compared to December 31, 2021.

Operating Activities

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in operating activities was $35.5 million, which primarily reflects a net income of $80.8 million, adjusted for non-cash share-based compensation of $52.1 million, non-cash gains of $163.9 million in earnout and warrant liabilities and an aggregate cash provided by operating assets and liabilities of $2.6 million. Specifically, $0.5 million increase in account receivable and $2.7 million increase in inventory are primarily due to increased sales. $2.8 million increase in account payable is primarily due to accrued bonus and increased wages, offsetting by $0.5 million decrease in operating lease liability.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $24.8 million, which primarily reflects a net loss of $32.8 million, adjusted for non-cash share-based compensation of $14.8 million and an aggregate cash used in operating assets and liabilities of $7.3 million. Specifically, $1.4 million increase in account receivable and $8.3 million increase in inventory are primarily due to increased sales. $2.6 million increase in account payable is primarily due to accrued bonus and increased wages.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $106.4 million was primarily due to $5.2 million cash funding of a joint venture, $3.5 million for purchases of fixed assets, coupled with $99.9 million business acquisitions.
Net cash used in investing activities of $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily related to the purchase of an asset acquisition and property and equipment.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $0.5 million was primarily due to debt payments of $2.4 million and repurchase of our common stock of $0.6 million, partially offset by proceeds from stock option exercises of $1.5 million.
Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 of $476 was primarily due to payments of deferred offering costs offset by proceeds from issuance of long term debt.

Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingencies

Except for a new operating lease entered into during the quarter (see Note 8, Leases, included on this Form 10-Q), there have been no significant changes to our contractual obligations as described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements
As of September 30, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report. Our management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, current economic and industry conditions and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from the information in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, included in our 2021 annual report on Form 10-K, except for adoption of ASC 805 Business Combinations as discussed in Note 2, Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements included on this Form10-Q.

JOBS Act Accounting Election
We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies, allowing them to delay the adoption of those standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act. As a result, following the Business Combination, our condensed consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of companies that are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies, which may make common stock less attractive to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, for this reporting period and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2022, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that as of November 14, 2022, as a result of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below, and in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

As disclosed in Item 9 of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, management concluded that we lack a sufficient number of trained professionals with technical accounting expertise to identify, evaluate, value and account for complex transactions. We also found we have insufficient accounting resources to maintain appropriate segregation of duties, including to ensure journal entries are reviewed by personnel independent of the preparer.

Management has taken steps to evaluate resources throughout the organization to determine where current resources should be reassigned and where additional resources are needed to consistently and timely execute internal control activities. During the second quarter, a new Controller was added to the accounting department, and consultants were utilized during the third quarter. In addition, for more complex transactions and to the extent there is a lack of knowledge within the current accounting team, Management plans to engage external professional firms to assist with such transactions as they arise, and additional hires during the year and consultants. Management will continue to assess segregation of duties and the journal entries process to ensure there is a separate preparer and reviewer. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until remediated controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded that these controls are operating effectively.

Management has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weaknesses described above, the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the date, and for the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

    On August 15, 2022, we acquired GeneSiC and, as a result, we have begun integrating certain processes, systems and controls relating to GeneSiC into our existing system of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with our integration plans. Except for certain processes, systems and controls relating to the integration of GeneSiC, during the quarter ended September 30, 2022, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time we may be involved in various disputes and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. We are currently not a party to any material legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the Summary of Risk Factors set forth at the beginning of this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A (“Risk Factors”) of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as well as the additional risks associated with the GeneSiC acquisition identified below. The risks described herein and in our 2021 annual report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Risks Related to Our Acquisition of GeneSiC Semiconductor

On August 15, 2022, we completed our acquisition of GeneSiC Semiconductor Inc. (“GeneSiC”). The acquisition was consummated by the merger of GeneSiC with and into a new wholly owned Navitas subsidiary, which continues to operate the GeneSiC business following the merger. We face the following risks in connection with the GeneSiC acquisition.

We may have difficulties integrating the operations and business of GeneSiC with our own.

Our acquisition of GeneSiC is the first significant acquisition we have ever undertaken. Although GeneSiC is a stand-alone business of which is continuing operations as a Navitas subsidiary, the complexities involved in the integration and expansion of GeneSiC as part of our Company are not yet fully understood. We have devoted and expect to continue to devote a significant amount of time and attention to integrating GeneSiC into our existing operations teams.

Given our relatively small size and relative inexperience with acquisitions, we expect the challenges involved in this integration to be complex and time consuming. Among other risks that arise from these challenges, we may not be successful in our efforts to: (1) integrate new employees with our existing teams; (2) integrate and align numerous business and work processes, including information technology and cyber security systems; (3) demonstrate that the GeneSiC acquisition will not adversely affect our ability to address the needs of existing customers, or result in the loss of attention or focus on our existing businesses; (4) coordinate and integrate research and development and engineering teams across technologies and product platforms; (5) consolidate and integrate corporate, information technology, finance and administrative processes; (6) coordinate sales and marketing efforts to effectively position our capabilities and the direction of product development; and (7) minimize diversion of management attention from important business objectives.

If we do not successfully manage these issues and the other challenges inherent in the GeneSiC acquisition, then we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the transaction. As a result, our post-acquisition revenue, expenses, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, any of which could materially adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

Even if we are able to integrate the GeneSiC and Navitas businesses and operations successfully, we may not realize the growth and other opportunities that are anticipated from the GeneSiC acquisition.

The benefits that we expect to achieve as a result of the GeneSiC acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to realize anticipated growth and profitability opportunities. Even if we are able to integrate the GeneSiC and Navitas businesses and operations successfully, despite the risks identified in the preceding risk factor, the integration may not result in the realization of the full benefits of the growth and profitability opportunities we currently expect within the anticipated time frame or at all. For example, we may incur substantial expenses in connection with the integration of the GeneSiC business, which are difficult to estimate accurately, and may exceed current estimates. We may need to invest in additional business processes and systems to support the GeneSiC business within Navitas, which may be more complex or costly than the
44

processes and systems needed to operate GeneSiC before the acquisition. Such additional costs would offset the financial benefits realized from the acquisition.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

On August 24, 2022, we issued 170,068 shares of our common stock in consideration for certain advisory services valued at approximately $1,000,000 provided by a financial advisor. The shares were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or Rule 506 thereunder.
