Exhibit 99.3

SEMTECH CORPORATION

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is presented to illustrate the estimated pro forma effects of the acquisition of Sierra Wireless, Inc. (the “Seller” or “Sierra Wireless”) by Semtech Corporation (the “Buyer”, “Semtech”, “Parent”, or “Company”) (the “Acquisition”) and the related financing transactions which includes the amendment of our existing revolving credit facility under the Third Amendment and Restated Agreement (the “Restatement Agreement”) entered into on September 26, 2022 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), the borrowing under our term loan commitments provided for under the Credit Agreement (the “New Term Loan Facility”) and proceeds from the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2027 which were issued on October 6, 2022 (the “Notes”) (the “Financing”, collectively with the Acquisition, the “Transactions”).

The financial information for Semtech is based on a 52 or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Sunday in January, while the financial information for Sierra Wireless is based on a 12-month fiscal year ending on December 31 of each year. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet gives effect to the Transactions as if they had been completed as of October 30, 2022, and combines the condensed consolidated balance sheet of Semtech as of October 30, 2022 with the consolidated balance sheet of Sierra Wireless as of September 30, 2022.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of income give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on February 1, 2021, the beginning of Semtech’s prior fiscal year. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the year ended January 30, 2022 combines the consolidated statement of income of Semtech for its fiscal year ended January 30, 2022 and the consolidated statement of operations of Sierra Wireless for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of income for the nine months ended October 30, 2022 combines the condensed consolidated statement of income of Semtech for its nine month period ended October 30, 2022 and the consolidated statement of operations of Sierra Wireless for its nine month period ended September 30, 2022.

The historical financial statements of Semtech and Sierra Wireless have been adjusted in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give estimated pro forma effect to the Transactions through the transaction accounting adjustments. Specifically, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information classifies the Financing and other material transactions related to the Acquisition as “Transaction Accounting Adjustments – Other” and material transactions as described in the Arrangement Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) as “Transaction Accounting Adjustments – Acquisition”. The unaudited pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release 33-10786, “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.”

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information and the accompanying notes are provided for informational and illustrative purposes only and should be read in conjunction with the following:

 

   

The audited consolidated financial statements of Semtech as of and for the year ended January 30, 2022, and the related notes, included in Semtech’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2022.

 

   

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Semtech as of and for the nine months ended October 30, 2022, and the related notes, included in Semtech’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 30, 2022;

 

   

The audited consolidated financial statements of Sierra Wireless as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes, included in Sierra Wireless’s Annual Report on Form 40-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

 

   

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of Sierra Wireless as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and the related notes. Included in Sierra Wireless’s Quarterly Report on Form 6-K for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Information regarding these pro forma adjustments is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not indicative of what the combined company financial condition or results of operations would have been had the Transactions occurred at an earlier date or on the dates assumed. In addition, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not purport to project the future financial condition and results of operations of the Company. The actual results of the Company may differ significantly from those reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

On August 2, 2022, Semtech, a Delaware corporation, Sierra Wireless, a corporation formed under the Canada Business Corporations Act, and 13548597 Canada Inc., a corporation formed under the Canada Business Corporations Act and wholly owned subsidiary of Semtech (the “Acquirer”), entered into an Arrangement Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). On January 12, 2023 (“Closing” or the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, Semtech acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Sierra Wireless. Each common share of Sierra Wireless that was issued and outstanding as of the Closing was transferred to the Acquirer in consideration for the right to receive $31.00 in cash per common share without interest (the “Per Share Consideration”). Additionally, in connection with the Acquisition, each Sierra Wireless equity award granted under Sierra Wireless’ historical equity compensation plans was converted into the right to receive the Per Share Consideration in an amount in which the equity awards convert into common shares.

In accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”), the purchase consideration is $1,309.6 million as provided for in the Purchase Agreement. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company entered into certain financing transactions, including issuing the Notes, borrowing under a New Term Loan Facility and amendment of its existing Revolving Credit Facility.

The Financing

To fund a portion of the Acquisition, Semtech issued Notes for estimated gross proceeds of $319.5 million. Concurrent with the pricing of the Notes, Semtech entered into convertible note hedge and warrant transactions, in which Semtech used $27.8 million of the proceeds from the Notes to pay for the cost of the convertible note hedge transactions (after the cost is partially offset by the proceeds to Semtech from the sale of the warrant transactions). The convertible note hedge and warrant transactions have been accounted for as equity instruments. Separately and substantially concurrent with the consummation of the Acquisition, Semtech extended the maturity date of $405.0 million of the total $600.0 million commitment under the Revolving Credit Facility and borrowed a gross $895.0 million under its New Term Loan Facility. Semtech used the remaining proceeds from the Notes, proceeds from borrowings under the New Term Loan Facility and available cash and cash equivalents to fund the settlement of Sierra Wireless’ existing debt, pay the Purchase Consideration, and pay related fees and expenses.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information give effect to the settlement of Sierra Wireless’ existing debt and issuances of new Semtech debt under the Financing.

Treatment of Sierra Wireless’ Historical Share-Based Compensation as a result of the Acquisition

Per the terms of the Purchase Agreement, equity awards granted under Sierra Wireless’ historical equity compensation plans were accelerated, became fully vested and were converted into the right to receive the Purchase Consideration for each share of Sierra Wireless common stock subject to such award (and in the case of stock options, less the applicable per share exercise price of such option). The fair value of the awards settled in cash associated with pre-acquisition services of Sierra Wireless’ employees represent a component of the preliminary total purchase consideration, whereas the remaining fair value of the awards settled in cash are excluded from the purchase consideration and is expensed in the post combination financial statements.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation

Semtech and Sierra Wireless’ historical financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are presented in U.S. dollars. As discussed in Note 3, certain reclassifications were made to align the presentation of Sierra Wireless’ financial statements with those of Semtech. Semtech has determined that no material adjustments are necessary to conform Sierra Wireless’ accounting policies to the accounting policies used by Semtech.

The Acquisition will be accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), and using the fair value concepts defined in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC 820”). Under ASC 805, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their acquisition date fair value, while transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as incurred. The excess of acquisition consideration over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill. The determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed (and the related determination of estimated useful lives of amortizable identifiable intangible assets) requires significant judgment and estimates. The estimates and assumptions used include the projected timing and amount of future cash flows and discount rates reflecting risk inherent in the future cash flows related to the business acquired. The allocation of the purchase price as reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is based upon management’s preliminary estimates

of the fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. This allocation of the purchase price depends upon certain estimates and assumptions, all of which are preliminary and, in some instances, are incomplete and have been made solely for the purpose of developing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. Any adjustments to the preliminary estimated fair value amounts could have a significant impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information contained herein, and our future results of operations and financial position.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not include the realization of any cost savings from operating efficiencies, synergies or other restructuring activities which might result from the Acquisition.

Note 4 - Conforming Accounting Policies

Upon consummation of the Acquisition, Semtech performed a comprehensive review of the two companies’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, Semtech did not identify any differences between the accounting policies of the two companies that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. As a result, except for as discussed in Note 3 to reclassify certain balances presented in the historical financial statements of Sierra Wireless to conform their presentation to that of Semtech, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not assume any adjustments to conform accounting policies.

Additionally, the effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-acquisition activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income and changes in tax law. This determination is preliminary and subject to change based upon the final determination of the valuation allowance, the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and transaction costs.
