Skyworks Solutions and Qorvo have agreed to merge in a cash-and-stock deal that values the combined radio frequency, analog, and mixed-signal semiconductor maker at around $22 billion. Qorvo shareholders will receive $32.50 in cash and 0.96 Skyworks common shares for each Qorvo share. When the deal closes, Skyworks stockholders will own 63% of the business and Qorvo shareholders will own the remaining 37%. Skyworks Chief Executive Phil Brace will serve as CEO of the combined company, while Qorvo CEO Bob Bruggeworth will join the board. The transaction is expected to close in early 2027, the companies said. Shares of Skyworks jumped 13% in premarket trading Tuesday. Qorvo shares surged 13%. The move will combine two of the primary suppliers for components in Apple’s iPhones. Skyworks warned investors earlier this year that it expected to lose a chunk of its share of iPhone content to competitors. That list of rivals will no longer include Qorvo.
