Accounting Policies [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The information included herein contains all normal recurring accruals and adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly Silicon Laboratories Inc.’s (the “Company”) financial position, results of its operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 30, 2023 was derived from the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Principles of Consolidation | These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 30, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 20, 2024.
Fiscal Period | The Company prepares financial statements on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the Saturday closest to December 31. Fiscal 2024 will have 52 weeks and fiscal 2023 had 52 weeks. In a 52-week year, each fiscal quarter consists of 13 weeks.
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Among the significant estimates affecting the financial statements are those related to inventories, goodwill, acquired intangible assets, other long-lived assets, revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could be material to the financial statements. The Company periodically reviews the assumptions used in its financial statement estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent Accounting Pronouncements In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280)—Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires interim and annual disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) and included within the reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss, requires interim disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually, requires disclosure of the position and title of the CODM, clarifies circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, and contains other disclosure requirements. This authoritative guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. As the requirements of this ASU are disclosure-related, the adoption will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this update on its segment disclosures. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires that reporting entities disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information about income taxes paid. The authoritative guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The requirements of this ASU are disclosure-related and will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this new guidance on its income tax disclosures.
