FOURTH QUARTER 2023 OUTLOOK

The following table outlines onsemi’s projected fourth quarter of 2023 GAAP and non-GAAP outlook.

                                  GAAP              Items **          Non-GAAP*** 
                        ------------------------  -----------  ------------------------ 
Revenue                 $1,950 to $2,050 million       -       $1,950 to $2,050 million 
Gross Margin                 45.4% to 47.4%          0.1%           45.5% to 47.5%

Other Income and 
Expense (including 
interest), net                ($4 million)             -             ($4 million) 
Diluted Earnings Per 
Share                        $1.10 to $1.24          $0.03          $1.13 to $1.27 
Diluted Shares 
 Outstanding *                444 million          6 million         438 million 
*    Diluted shares outstanding can vary as a result of, among other things, 
     the actual exercise of options or vesting of restricted stock units, the 
     incremental dilutive shares from the convertible senior subordinated 
     notes, and the repurchase or the issuance of stock or convertible notes 
     or the sale of treasury shares. In periods when the quarterly average 
     stock price per share exceeds $52.97 for the 0% Notes, and $103.87 for 
     the 0.50% Notes, the non-GAAP diluted share count and non-GAAP net income 
     per share include the anti-dilutive impact of the hedge transactions 
     entered concurrently with the 0% Notes, and the 0.50% Notes, 
     respectively. At an average stock price per share between $52.97 and 
     $74.34 for the 0% Notes, and $103.87 and $156.78 for the 0.50% Notes, the 
     hedging activity offsets the potentially dilutive effect of the 0% Notes, 
     and the 0.50% Notes, respectively. In periods when the quarterly average 
     stock price exceeds $74.34 for the 0% Notes, and $156.78 for the 0.50% 
     Notes, the dilutive impact of the warrants issued concurrently with such 
     notes is included in the diluted shares outstanding. GAAP and non-GAAP 
     diluted share counts are based on either the previous quarter's average 
     stock price or the stock price as of the last day of the previous 
     quarter, whichever is higher. 
**   Special items may include: amortization of acquisition-related 
     intangibles; expensing of appraised inventory fair market value step-up; 
     non-recurring facility costs; in-process research and development 
     expenses; restructuring, asset impairments and other, net; goodwill 
     impairment charges; gains and losses on debt prepayment; actuarial 
     (gains) losses on pension plans and other pension benefits; and certain 
     other special items, as necessary. These special items are out of our 
     control and could change significantly from period to period. As a 
     result, we are not able to reasonably estimate and separately present the 
     individual impact or probable significance of these special items, and we 
     are similarly unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP 
     measures. The reconciliation that is unavailable would include a 
     forward-looking income statement, balance sheet and statement of cash 
     flows in accordance with GAAP. For this reason, we use a projected range 
     of the aggregate amount of special items in order to calculate our 
     projected non-GAAP operating expense outlook. 
***  We believe these non-GAAP measures provide important supplemental 
     information to investors. We use these measures, together with GAAP 
     measures, for internal managerial purposes and as a means to evaluate 
     period-to-period comparisons. However, we do not, and you should not, 
     rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. 
     We believe that non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of 
     viewing aspects of our operations that, when taken together with GAAP 
     results and the reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures 
     that we also provide in our releases, provide a more complete 
     understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Because 
     non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible 
     to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP 
     financial measures, even if they have similar names.
