Skyworks Solutions (ISIN US83088M1027) was trading at EUR 76.76 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 11:40 a.m. CEST, up 1.59 percent versus the EUR 75.56 prior close. On September 30, Skyworks said it had received all necessary clearances for its proposed combination with Qorvo, with the transaction expected to close by October 5, 2026, according to Skyworks.

Qorvo deal reaches closing stage

The regulatory milestone removes a major formal condition for the combination, but execution remains central because the transaction will bring together two analog and mixed-signal semiconductor businesses. Skyworks also extended the expiration date for exchanges involving Qorvo senior notes to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on October 5, 2026.

The financing element is material. Skyworks said its Q3 FY26 materials anticipate approximately USD 2.0 billion of acquisition debt financing and include a new USD 2.0 billion stock repurchase authorization, according to its quarterly results page.

Quarterly figures show mixed picture

For the quarter ended June 27, 2026, Skyworks reported USD 935.0 million of revenue, GAAP diluted earnings per share of USD 0.22 and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of USD 1.08, the company said on its results page. Revenue and GAAP earnings remain important counterweights to the merger narrative because the latest quarter did not show uniform operating strength.

MarketBeat reported that adjusted earnings per share reached USD 1.08 versus USD 1.03 consensus for the quarter, a USD 0.05 difference, while revenue of USD 934.80 million exceeded the USD 925.97 million estimate by USD 8.83 million. The comparison points to better-than-expected quarterly execution even as the merger adds financing and integration demands.

Analyst target widens valuation debate

RBC Capital raised its price target for Skyworks from USD 70.00 to USD 95.00 on October 1, 2026 while keeping a Sector Perform rating, according to Investing.com. The target change reflects the potential for operating expense synergies, while the same report cited muted smartphone growth and a 24 to 36 month timeline for full synergies.

Stock remains below yearly high

Skyworks stock stood 17.28 percent below its USD 92.80 52-week high and 47.70 percent above its USD 51.93 low on October 2, 2026, based on the latest primary-market quote. Its USD 12.8 billion market capitalization places the merger in a large-cap semiconductor context, while the share price remains below its yearly peak.

Skyworks was trading at EUR 76.76 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 11:40 a.m. CEST, plus 1.59 percent versus the Lang & Schwarz prior close of EUR 75.56 on October 2, 2026. The further course of trading is shown by the continuously updated real-time quote of Skyworks Solutions stock.
