Microchip removed a capacity expansion risk while adding two new risks related to convertible debt and preferred stock that could impact common shareholders, resulting in a net addition of one risk disclosure. Eleven existing risks underwent substantive modifications, with notably expanded disclosures around foundry dependencies, cybersecurity concerns, financial market impacts, and tax examination outcomes. The net effect reflects Microchip's shift in focus from execution risk on capital projects to financial structure risks stemming from recent convertible and preferred stock issuances.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be influenced by the Convertible Debt, Series A Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares. The market price of our common stock could become more volatile and could be depressed by: (1) investors’ anticipation of the potential resale in the market of a substantial number of additional shares of common stock received upon conversion of the Convertible Debt, Series A Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares; (2) possible sales of our common stock by investors who view the Series A Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares as a more attractive means of equity participation in us than owning shares of common stock; and (3) hedging or arbitrage trading activity that we expect to develop involving the Series A Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares and our common stock.
