Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Background and Basis of Presentation | Note 1: Background and Basis of Presentation ON Semiconductor Corporation, together with its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries ("ON Semiconductor," "we," “us,” “our,” or the "Company"), uses a thirteen-week fiscal quarter accounting period for the first three fiscal quarters of each year, with the second quarter of 2020 having ended on July 3, 2020 and each fiscal year ending on December 31. The quarters ended July 3, 2020 and June 28, 2019 each contained 91 days. The six months ended July 3, 2020 and June 28, 2019 contained 185 and 179 days, respectively. As of July 3, 2020, the Company was organized into the following three operating and reportable segments: the Power Solutions Group ("PSG"), the Advanced Solutions Group ("ASG") and the Intelligent Sensing Group ("ISG"). Additional details on the Company’s operating and reportable segments are included in Note 2: ''Revenue and Segment Information.'' The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of and for the quarter and six months ended July 3, 2020 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") for unaudited interim financial information. Accordingly, the unaudited financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was derived from the Company's audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company's management, the interim information includes all adjustments, which includes normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The footnote disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the SEC on February 19, 2020 (the “2019 Form 10-K”). Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and bases its estimates on experience, current and expected future conditions, third-party evaluations and various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Significant estimates have been used by management in conjunction with the following: (i) future payouts for customer incentives and amounts subject to allowances and returns; (ii) valuation and obsolescence relating to inventories; (iii) fair values of share-based compensation; and (iv) measurement of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets and evaluations of unrecognized tax benefits. Even though the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic impacted the demand for the Company's products and gross margin, it did not have a significant impact on these estimates. Additionally, during periods where it becomes applicable, significant estimates will be used by management in determining the future cash flows used to assess and test for impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets and goodwill and in assumptions used in connection with business combinations. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in the consolidated financial statements. The Company assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in the context of the information reasonably available and the unknown future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as of July 3, 2020, and through the date of this Form 10-Q. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, share based compensation, inventory valuation and corresponding reserves, carrying value of indefinite-lived assets, other long-lived assets and goodwill, valuation allowance for tax assets, contingencies and revenue recognition. While there was not a material impact to the consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter and six months ended July 3, 2020, resulting from these assessments, future assessment of the current expectations, including of the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors, could result in a material adverse impact to the consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
