POWI — what changed in the latest 10-Q
A section-by-section comparison of POWI's newest periodic SEC filing (10-K/10-Q) against the prior same-form filing: paragraphs added and removed per section, with verbatim excerpts. Purely a deterministic text diff — no similarity scores, no directional read, not investment advice.

MD&A
Text added vs the prior filing · source: 10-Q · 2026-05-07
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted include, but are not limited to:
●The demand for our products declining in the major end markets we serve and the ability of our products to penetrate additional markets; which may occur due to competitive factors, supply-chain fluctuations, rising inflation or other changes in macroeconomic or geopolitical conditions;
●our ability to develop and bring to market new products and technologies, including on a timely basis;
●reliance on international sales activities for a substantial portion of our net revenue;
●sales of our products through distributors, which limits our direct interaction with our end customers, reducing our ability to forecast sales and increasing the complexity of our business;

We design, develop and market analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits (“ICs”) and other electronic components and circuitry used in high-voltage power conversion. Our products are used in power converters that convert electricity from a high-voltage source to the type of power required for a spe…
A large percentage of our products are ICs used in AC-DC power supplies, which convert the high-voltage AC from a wall outlet to the low-voltage DC required by most electronic devices. Power supplies incorporating our products are used with all manner of electronic products including appliances, ind…
We also offer high-voltage gate drivers—either standalone ICs or circuit boards containing ICs, electrical isolation components and other circuitry—used to operate high-voltage switches such as insulated-gate bipolar transistors (“IGBTs”) and silicon-carbide (“SiC”) MOSFETs. These combinations of sw…
Our power-conversion products are distinguished by their “system-level” nature; that is, they incorporate into a single product numerous elements of a power-conversion system including a high-voltage transistor, drivers, advanced control circuitry and, in some cases, a communication link connecting …
Our system-level products offer a number of important benefits compared with discrete designs, including: reduced design complexity; smaller size; lower component count, which in turn results in higher reliability and easier sourcing of components; reduced time-to-market; and more efficient use of e…

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial C…
Our operating results are volatile and difficult to predict. If we fail to meet the expectations of public market analysts or investors, the market price of our common stock may decrease significantly. Our net revenue and operating results have varied significantly in the past, are difficult to fore…
Some of the factors that could affect our operating results and the price of our stock include but are not limited to the following:
●The demand for our products may decline in the major end markets we serve and reduce the ability of our products to penetrate additional markets; which may occur due to competitive factors, supply-chain fluctuations, rising inflation or other changes in macroeconomic or geopolitical conditions;
●our ability to develop and bring to market new products and technologies, including on a timely basis;

Termination of Prior Credit Agreement; Entry into PNC Loan Agreement
In 2016, we entered into the Prior Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, which provided us with a $75.0 million revolving line of credit to use for general corporate purposes and a $20.0 million sub-limit for the issuance of standby and trade letters of credit with an interes…
On February 24, 2026, we entered into the PNC Loan Agreement to replace the Prior Credit Agreement, which became effective and available for use on April 10, 2026 when we terminated the Prior Credit Agreement. The PNC Loan Agreement provides us with a $100.0 million revolving line of credit with a $…
The PNC Loan Agreement requires us to maintain a Minimum Liquidity of at least $50.0 million as of the last day of each fiscal quarter and a ratio of Funded Indebtedness to Adjusted EBITDA of less than 2.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter and determined on a rolling four-quarter ba…
The PNC Loan Agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and conditions precedent to borrowing usual and customary for credit agreements of this type. The PNC Loan Agreement contains negative covenants, including negative covenants that restrict, subject to certain excep…
How to read Risk Factors (Item 1A) in a 10-Q
A 10-Q risk-factor section usually takes one of three forms; this page classifies it as one of:
- Pointer — the filer states there have been no material changes and points back to the annual 10-K risk factors; there is no own risk text to compare this quarter.
- Partial update — the filer carves out specific updated risks ("except as set forth below"); the excerpts show exactly what is new this quarter.
- Restated in full — the quarter carries the complete risk-factor text. When the prior quarter was only a pointer there is no prior full text to diff against, so the page flags the section as restated instead.
This describes the filing structure only — it is never a judgement on whether risk went up or down.
