Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer
(“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on that
evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is: (1) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 based on the 2013 framework set forth in Internal Control –
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework)
(the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of the
Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024,
the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes and our report dated February 13, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating
the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of
records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Stockholders and the Board
of Directors of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 , the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income , stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 , and the related notes
(collectively referred to as the “ consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2025 and 2024 , and
the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 , in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(2013 framework), and our report dated February 13, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a
public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the
financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits
also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial
statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex
judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate
opinion on the critical audit matter or on the account or disclosure to which it relates.
F-2
Sales Returns and Allowances Accruals
Description of the Matter
At December 31, 2025, the Company’s liability for sales returns and allowances was $41.2 million. As discussed in Note 1 of
the consolidated financial statements, the Company recognizes the estimated variable consideration to be received from contracts with customers as revenue and recognizes a related accrued liability for estimated future credits that will be
issued to its customers, primarily distributors, for product returns, scrap allowance, “stock, ship and debit”, and price protection programs with those customers.
Auditing management’s sales returns and allowances accruals specifically related to the scrap allowance and “stock, ship and
debit” programs was especially challenging because of the judgement used by management to determine the amount of future credits that will be issued to customers for sales that were recognized during the period. Estimating the scrap
allowance and “stock, ship and debit” accrual involves the application of models which require management to make certain assumptions including future customer credit rates.
How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s sales
returns and allowances review process for the scrap allowance and “stock, ship and debit” programs, including testing controls over management’s review of the reserve calculation and the underlying assumptions used to develop the estimates.
To test the estimated sales returns and allowances accruals for the scrap allowance and “stock, ship and debit” programs, we
performed audit procedures that included, among others, assessing methodologies and testing the assumptions discussed above and the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used by the Company in its analyses. We inspected contracts
with customers in evaluating whether the assumptions used by management agreed with the terms and conditions of the contracts. In addition, we compared the assumptions used by management to actual historical credit experience. We also
assessed the historical accuracy of management’s estimates and performed sensitivity analyses of significant assumptions to evaluate the changes in the accruals that would result from changes in the assumptions.

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (“Vishay” or the “Company”) manufactures
one of the world’s largest portfolios of discrete semiconductors and passive electronic components that are essential to innovative designs in the automotive, industrial, military, aerospace, healthcare, power supplies, telecommunications, consumer
products, and computing end markets. Semiconductors include MOSFETs, diodes, and optoelectronic components. Passive components include resistors, inductors, and capacitors.
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vishay and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling financial interest is maintained. For those
consolidated subsidiaries in which the Company’s ownership is less than 100 percent, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as
noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Investments in affiliates over which the Company has significant influence but not a controlling interest are carried on the equity basis. Investments in affiliates over which
the Company does not have significant influence are accounted for by the cost method. All intercompany transactions, accounts, and profits are eliminated.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers when it satisfies the performance obligations within the contract. The Company has framework agreements
with many of its customers that contain the terms and conditions of future sales, but do not create enforceable rights or obligations. For revenue recognition purposes, the Company considers the combined purchase orders and the terms and conditions
contained within such framework agreements to be contracts.
Payment terms for the Company's sales are generally less than ninety days .
Substantially all of the Company's receivables historically have been and are expected to continue to be collected within twelve months of
the transfer of products to the customer and the Company expects this to continue going forward. Accordingly, the Company does not recognize a financing component of the transaction price.
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in contracts with customers, and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third
parties. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies its performance obligations. The Company analyzes its contracts to determine whether the promise in the contract to construct and transfer goods to the customer is a performance obligation
that will be satisfied over time or at a point in time. When the Company's performance does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, the Company
transfers control of a good or service over time and, therefore, satisfies a performance obligation and recognizes revenue over time. The Company has a limited number of contracts for custom products that meet the criteria to recognize revenue over
time.
The Company's contracts contain two performance
obligations: delivery of products and warranty protection. The Company does not sell separate, enhanced, or extended warranty coverage, but through its customary business practices, the Company has created implied service-type warranties, which are
accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is allocated between these two performance obligations and recognized as the obligations are satisfied. The allocation of revenue to warranty protection is based on an estimate of expected
cost plus margin. The delivery of products performance obligation is satisfied and product sales revenue is recognized when the customer takes control of the products. Warranty revenue is deferred and the warranty protection performance obligation
is satisfied and revenue is recognized over the warranty period, which is typically less than twenty four months from sale to end
customer. The warranty deferred revenue liability is recorded within Other Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The deferred revenue balance associated with the service-type warranty performance
obligations and the components that comprise the change in the deferred revenue balance are not significant.
The Company has a broad line of products that it sells to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), electronic manufacturing services ("EMS") companies, which
manufacture for OEMs on an outsourcing basis, and independent distributors that maintain large inventories of electronic components for resale to OEMs and EMS companies.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The Company recognizes revenue on sales to distributors when the distributor takes control of the products ("sold-to" model). The Company has agreements with
distributors that allow distributors a limited credit for unsaleable products, which it terms a "scrap allowance." Consistent with industry practice, the Company also has a "stock, ship and debit" program whereby it considers requests by distributors
for credits on previously purchased products that remain in distributors' inventory, to enable the distributors to offer more competitive pricing. In addition, the Company has contractual arrangements whereby it provides distributors with protection
against price reductions initiated by the Company after product is sold by the Company to the distributor and prior to resale by the distributor.
The Company recognizes the estimated variable consideration to be received as revenue and records a related accrued expense for the consideration not expected to be
received, based upon its estimate of product returns, scrap allowances, "stock, ship and debit" credits, and price protection credits that will be attributable to sales recorded through the end of the period. The Company makes these estimates based
upon sales levels to its distributors during the period, inventory levels at the distributors, current and projected market conditions, and historical experience under the programs. The Company utilizes a number of different methodologies and
considers several factors when estimating the accruals. Some of the factors considered include sales levels to distributors during the relevant period, inventory levels at the distributors, current and projected market trends and conditions, recent
and historical activity under the relevant programs, changes in program policies, and open requests for credits. These procedures require the exercise of significant judgments. The Company believes that it has a reasonable basis to estimate future
credits under the programs. See sales returns and allowances accrual activity in Note 9.
The Company pays commissions to external sales representatives on a per-sale basis. Accordingly, these commissions are expensed as incurred because the future
amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. Internal staff are not paid commissions.
The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill the promise to transfer the product even if the shipping and handling activities
are performed after the customer obtains control. The Company does not evaluate whether shipping and handling activities are promised services to its customers. If control transfers and revenue is recognized for the related products before the
shipping and handling activities occur, the related costs of those shipping and handling activities is accrued. The Company applies this accounting policy election consistently to similar types of transactions.
See disaggregated revenue information in Note 15 .
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The amount charged to expense for research and development (exclusive of purchased in-process research and
development) aggregated $ 122,388 , $ 120,126 ,
and $ 99,506 , for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The Company spends additional amounts for the development of machinery and equipment for new processes and for cost reduction measures.
Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred taxes represent the
future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during
the year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities and are adjusted for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. Valuation allowances have been established
for deferred tax assets which the Company believes do not meet GAAP criteria of “more likely than not” to be realized. This criterion requires a level of judgment regarding future taxable income, which may be revised due to changes in market
conditions, tax laws, or other factors. If the Company’s assumptions and estimates change in the future, valuation allowances established may be increased, resulting in increased tax expense. Conversely, if the Company is ultimately able to utilize
all or a portion of the deferred tax assets for which a valuation allowance has been established, then the related portion of the valuation allowance can be released, resulting in decreased tax expense.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the
Company’s tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. During the ordinary course of business, there are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company establishes reserves for
tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. These reserves are established when the Company believes that certain positions might be challenged despite the Company’s belief that its
tax return positions are fully supportable. The Company adjusts these reserves in light of changing facts and circumstances and the provision for income taxes includes the impact of reserve provisions and changes to reserves that are considered
appropriate.
These accruals for tax-related uncertainties are based on management’s best estimate of potential tax exposures. When particular matters arise, a number of years may
elapse before such matters are audited by tax authorities and finally resolved. Favorable resolution of such matters could be recognized as a reduction to the Company’s effective tax rate in the year of resolution. Unfavorable resolution of any
particular issue could increase the effective tax rate and may require the use of cash in the year of resolution. The amount included in current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets reflect only amounts expected to be settled
in cash within one year.
See Note 5.

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-Term Investments
Cash and cash equivalents includes demand deposits and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Highly liquid investments with original maturities greater than three months, but less than one year are classified as short-term
investments. At December 31, 2025 and 2024,
the Company’s short-term investments were comprised of time deposits with financial institutions whose original maturity exceeds three months, but less than one year.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company estimates its credit losses on financial instruments using a current expected credit loss
model. The Company maintains an allowance for accounts receivable credit losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. Payment terms for the Company's sales are generally less than ninety days.
Substantially all of the Company's trade receivables are collected within twelve months of the transfer of products to the customer and the Company expects this to continue going forward. The credit loss allowance is determined through an analysis
of the aging of accounts receivable and assessments of risk that are based on historical trends and an evaluation of the impact of current and projected economic conditions. Receivables from customers with deteriorating financial condition and those
over 180 days past due are removed from the pool and evaluated separately. Net credit loss expense (benefit) for accounts receivable was $ 911 , $ ( 214 ) , and $ 369 for the years ended December
31, 2025 , 2024 , and 2023 , respectively.
The Company’s cash equivalents, short-term investments, and restricted investments are accounted for as held-to-maturity debt instruments, at amortized
cost. Interest income on these instruments is recorded as "Other income" on the consolidated statements of operations and interest receivable is recognized as a separate asset and recorded in "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" on the
consolidated balance sheets. The Company has not experienced a credit loss on the principal or interest receivable of its cash equivalents, short-term investments, or restricted investments. The Company pools its cash equivalents, short-term
investments, and restricted investments by credit rating of the issuing financial institution and estimates an allowance for credit losses based on the corporate bond default ratios, evaluation of the impact of current and projected economic
conditions, and probability of credit loss. Net credit loss expense for cash equivalents, short-term investments, and restricted investments was immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. The Company does not measure an allowance for credit losses on interest receivable. Any uncollectible interest receivable is recognized by reversing interest income
within the fiscal quarter that the interest becomes uncollectible.
In 2025, the Company started selling certain of its non-U.S. accounts receivable on a non-recourse basis to third-party financial institutions. These
transactions are recognized as sales of receivables because effective control over, and risk related to, the receivables is transferred to the buyers. The Company derecognized $ 62,175 of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025. The cash proceeds are presented as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. After the sale
of the accounts receivable, the Company collects payment from the customers and remits it to the third-party financial institutions.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined by the moving average and first-in, first-out methods, or net realizable value. Inventories are adjusted for
estimated obsolescence and written down to net realizable value based upon estimates of future demand, technology developments, and market conditions.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is carried at cost and is depreciated principally by the straight-line method based
upon the estimated useful lives of the assets. Machinery and equipment are being depreciated over useful lives of seven years to ten years . Buildings and building improvements are being depreciated over useful lives of twenty years to forty years . Construction in progress is not depreciated until the assets are placed in service. The estimated cost to complete construction in progress at December 31, 2025 was approximately $ 334,100 . Depreciation expense was $ 211,542 , $ 198,961 ,
and $ 174,457 for the years ended December 31, 2025 , 2024, and 2023 ,
respectively. Gains and losses on the disposal of assets which do not qualify for presentation as discontinued operations are included in the determination of operating margin (within selling, general, and administrative expenses). Individually
material gains and losses on disposal are separately disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company has commitments for the purchase of assets to complete its construction in progress as disclosed above. The commitment period for most of these purchase
commitments is less than one year.

(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Liabilities for loss contingencies, including environmental remediation costs, arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties, and other sources are
recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated. The costs for a specific environmental remediation site are discounted if the aggregate amount of the
obligation and the amount and timing of the cash payments for that site are fixed or reliably determinable based upon information derived from the remediation plan for that site. Accrued liabilities for environmental matters recorded at December 31,
2025 and 2024 do not
include claims against third parties.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of a business acquired over the fair value of the related net assets at the date of acquisition. Certain intangible assets
may be assigned indefinite useful lives. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized but rather are tested for impairment at least annually. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment tests as of the first day of the
fourth fiscal quarter. These tests are performed more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired (see Note 19). The Company's business segments (see Note 15) represent its reporting units for
goodwill impairment testing purposes. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, the Company has no recorded
indefinite-lived intangible assets.
Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Patents and acquired technology are being amortized over useful lives of seven years to twenty-five years .
Capitalized software is amortized over periods of three years to ten years , primarily included in "Costs of products sold" on the consolidated statements of operations. Customer relationships are amortized over useful lives of five years to twenty years . Noncompete
agreements are amortized over periods of three years to ten years . The Company continually evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets.
GAAP prescribes a quantitative method for determining goodwill impairment. The Company has the option of performing a qualitative assessment before
performing the quantitative impairment test. If it is determined, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of the reporting unit is not more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is not
required. If it is determined that the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required.
The Company determines the fair value of the reporting unit and compares that fair value to the net book value of the reporting unit. The fair value of the
reporting unit is determined using various valuation techniques, including a comparable companies market multiple approach and a discounted cash flow analysis (an income approach). If the net book value of the reporting unit were to exceed the
fair value, the Company would recognize an impairment charge.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The carrying value of long-lived assets held-and-used, other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, is evaluated when events or changes in circumstances
indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable or the useful life has changed. The carrying value of a long-lived asset group is considered impaired when the total projected undiscounted cash flows from such asset group are separately
identifiable and are less than the carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset group. Fair market value is determined primarily using
present value techniques based on projected cash flows from the asset group. Losses on long-lived assets held-for-sale, other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, are determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values
are reduced for anticipated disposal costs.
Available-for-Sale Securities
Short-term investments and other assets reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets include time deposits with financial institutions whose original
maturity exceeds three months, but less than one year that are classified as held-to-maturity instruments, and investments in marketable securities that are classified as available-for-sale instruments. The available-for-sale instruments include
assets that are held in trust related to the Company’s non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans (see Note 11) and assets that are intended to fund a portion of the Company’s other postretirement benefit obligations outside of the U.S.
These assets are reported at fair value, based on quoted market prices as of the end of the reporting period. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as "Other income (expense)" on the consolidated statements of operations. At the time of sale,
the assets that are held in trust related to the Company’s non-qualified pension and deferred compensation plans, any gains (losses) calculated by the specific identification method are recognized as a reduction (increase) to benefits expense, within
"Selling, general, and administrative expenses" on the consolidated statements of operations.
Financial Instruments
The Company uses financial instruments in the normal course of its business, including from time to time, derivative financial instruments. Additionally, from time to
time, the Company enters into contracts that are not considered derivative financial instruments in their entirety, but that include embedded derivative features.
Other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, held-to-maturity short-term investments, accounts receivable, and notes payable. The carrying amounts of
these financial instruments reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these assets and liabilities.
F-13
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The fair value measurement accounting guidance establishes a valuation hierarchy of the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices
for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.
An asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation costs related to stock-based payment transactions are recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The amount of compensation cost is
measured based on the grant-date fair value of the equity (or liability) instruments issued. The Company determines compensation cost for restricted stock units ("RSUs") and phantom stock units based on the grant-date fair value of the underlying
common stock adjusted for expected dividends paid over the required vesting period for non-participating awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the period that an officer, employee, or non-employee director is required to provide service in
exchange for the award. For RSUs with market conditions, the Company estimates the grant date fair value using a Monte Carlo valuation model and recognizes the expense for the awards over the period in which the condition is assessed regardless of
whether the market condition is ultimately achieved. For awards subject to graded vesting, the Company recognizes expense over the service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards.
The Company recognizes compensation cost for RSUs that are expected to vest and records cumulative adjustments in the period that the expectation changes.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company has significant operations outside of the United States. The Company finances most of its operations in Europe and certain locations in Asia in local
currencies, and accordingly, these subsidiaries utilize the local currency as their functional currency. The Company’s operations in Israel, the United Kingdom, and most significant locations in Asia are largely financed in U.S. dollars, and
accordingly, these subsidiaries utilize the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.
For those subsidiaries where the local currency is the functional currency, assets and liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets have been translated
at the rate of exchange as of the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments do not impact the consolidated results of operations and are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average
exchange rate for the year. While the translation of revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars does not directly impact the statement of operations, the translation effectively increases or decreases the U.S. dollar equivalent of revenues generated and
expenses incurred in those foreign currencies.
For those foreign subsidiaries where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, all foreign currency financial statement amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars.
Exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in the consolidated results of operations.
Treasury Stock
The Company records treasury stock at cost, inclusive of fees, commissions, excise taxes, and other expenses, when outstanding common shares are
repurchased. The Company allocates the excess of par value paid to repurchase outstanding common shares to "Capital in excess of par value" when treasury stock is retired.
Self-Insurance Programs
The Company uses a combination of insurance and self-insurance mechanisms to provide for the potential liabilities for workers’ compensation, general liability,
property damage, director and officers’ liability, and vehicle liability.
As part of its self-insurance program for certain risks, the Company created a wholly-owned captive insurance entity in 2007. At December 31, 2025, the captive insurance entity provides only property and general liability insurance, although it is licensed to also provide directors’ and
officers’ insurance. The captive insurance entity had no amounts accrued for outstanding claims at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Certain investments held by the captive insurance entity are restricted primarily for the purpose of potential insurance claims. Such amounts are recorded in other
noncurrent assets, and total $ 14,337 and $ 12,001
at December 31, 2025 and 2024,
respectively, representing required statutory reserves of the captive insurance entity.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Leases
The Company leases buildings and machinery and equipment used for manufacturing and/or sales and administrative purposes. The Company is also party to various service,
warehousing, and other agreements that it evaluates for potential embedded leases. Substantially all of the Company’s leases are structured and classified as operating leases.
The Company leases assets in each region in which it operates. The Company’s leases are generally denominated in the currency of the leased assets' location, which
may not be the functional currency of the subsidiary lessee. Accordingly, the Company remeasures its lease liability and recognizes a transactional gain/loss for leases denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the subsidiary
lessee.
The Company recognizes right of use assets and lease liabilities for leases greater than twelve months in duration based on the contract consideration for lease
components through the term of the lease and the applicable discount rate. Leases with a duration less than or equal to twelve months are considered short-term leases. The Company does not recognize right of use assets or lease liabilities for
short-term leases and classifies the expense as short-term lease expense. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are included in the right of use assets and lease liabilities based on the effective rates at lease commencement. Changes
in the rates or indices do not impact the right of use asset or lease liability and are recognized as a component of lease expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Variable lease payments not based on an index or rate are not included
in the initial right of use asset and lease liability and are recognized when incurred as a component of lease expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company has elected to not separate contract consideration for lease and non-lease components for its building leases. In addition to the noncancellable period of
a lease, the Company includes periods covered by extension options it is reasonably certain to exercise, termination options that it is reasonably certain not to exercise, and extension and termination options controlled by the lessor in its
determination of the lease term. The Company uses the rate implicit in the contract whenever possible when determining the applicable discount rate. When the implicit rate is not used, the Company employs a portfolio approach based on the
duration of the lease. The portfolio lease rates are calculated monthly.
No individual lease is considered significant and there are no leases that have not yet commenced that are considered significant.
See Note 4 for additional information.
Restructuring and Severance Costs
Restructuring and severance costs reflect charges resulting from cost reduction programs implemented by the Company. Restructuring and severance costs
include exit costs, severance benefits pursuant to an on-going arrangement, voluntary termination compensation under a defined program, and any related pension curtailment and settlement charges.
The Company recognizes expense for one-time benefits only after management has committed to a plan, the plan is sufficiently detailed to provide the
number, classification, and location of employees to be terminated as well as the expected completion date, the plan has been sufficiently communicated to employees such that they are able to determine the type and amount of benefits they will
receive if terminated, and it is unlikely that the plan will be significantly changed or withdrawn. If an employee is not required to render service beyond a minimum retention period, the Company recognizes expense once the aforementioned criteria
have been met. If an employee is required to render service beyond a minimum retention period, the Company recognizes expense over the period that the employee is required to render future service.
The Company recognizes expense for on-going benefit arrangements when the liability is reasonably estimable and considered probable. The Company
recognizes expense for voluntary separation / early retirement when the employee delivers an irrevocable voluntary termination notice pursuant to a defined Company program. The Company recognizes other exit costs as incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Guidance Recently Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting
Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The ASU requires entities to consistently categorize and provide greater disaggregation of information in the rate
reconciliation and income taxes paid. The ASU is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, with the ability to early adopt. The Company adopted the ASU effective January 1, 2025. The adoption of the ASU did
not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, but increased its income tax disclosures.
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses . The ASU requires entities to provide expanded disclosures about specific income statement expenses, primarily
through enhanced disclosures about purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. The ASU is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and interim periods
beginning after January 1, 2028, with the ability to early adopt. The adoption of the ASU will not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, but will increase disclosures.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, Measurement
of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets . The ASU allows entities to elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change the remaining life of the asset when
developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. The Company adopted the ASU effective January 1, 2026. The adoption of the ASU will not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations,
or cash flows.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, Targeted
Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software . The ASU requires entities to capitalize software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be
completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The Company early adopted the ASU effective January 1, 2026. The adoption of the ASU is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on reported net earnings attributable

Note 5 – Income Taxes
Changes in Tax Laws and Regulations
United States
On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1 (the "Act"), a tax reconciliation act, was enacted into law in the United States. The Act did not change the U.S. federal tax rate and most of the provisions of the Act are effective for tax
years beginning after December 31, 2025. The Company has recorded no change to the deferred U.S. taxes directly related to the Act. The Act allows the deduction in tax year 2025, or in tax years 2025 and 2026, of some previously capitalized
research and development costs. The Company anticipates that these additional tax deductions may preclude the utilization of a U.S. foreign tax credit ("FTC") that is due to expire in 2028. As an indirect result of this change in tax law, the
Company recorded a valuation allowance of $ 9,420 on the deferred tax asset related to this FTC.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "TCJA") was enacted in the United States. Under previous law, companies could indefinitely defer U.S. income
taxation on unremitted foreign earnings. The TCJA imposed a one-time transition tax on deferred foreign earnings, payable in defined increments over eight years. Installments of $ 47,027 were paid in 2025, $ 37,622 were paid in 2024, $ 27,670 were paid in 2023, and $ 14,757
in each of 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, and 2018. The 2025 installment was the last payment.
The Company has elected to account for Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") tax in the period in which it is incurred and, therefore, does not provide any
deferred taxes in the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2025, 2024, or 2023.
Germany
In the third fiscal quarter of 2025, the Federal Republic of Germany enacted tax legislation decreasing the federal tax rate beginning in 2028 by 1% per year for five
years. The Company recorded deferred tax expense of $ 4,237 to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets in Germany based on these
new rates.
Changes in Indefinite Reversal Assertion
The Company made the determination in 2021 that substantially all unremitted foreign earnings in Israel were no longer indefinitely reinvested. The Company made the determination in 2022 that substantially all
unremitted earnings in Germany were no longer indefinitely reinvested.
These changes in this indefinite reinvestment assertions provide greater access to the Company's worldwide cash balances to fund its growth plan and its
Stockholder Return Policy. While the change in assertion provides access to these balances, these amounts will be repatriated only as needed. The withholding taxes associated with any distribution to the United States is payable upon
distribution. The Company repatriated $ 75,000 of accumulated earnings to the United States in the second fiscal quarter of 2025 and paid
withholding taxes, in Israel, of $ 9,375 . The Company repatriated $ 120,000 of accumulated earnings to the United States in the second fiscal quarter of 2024 and paid withholding taxes, in Israel, of $ 15,000 . During the fourth fiscal quarter of 2023, the Company repatriated $ 325,000
of accumulated earnings to the United States and paid withholding taxes, in Germany and Israel, of $ 63,600 .
At December 31, 2025, approximately $ 231,187
of German earnings and approximately $ 261,452 of Israeli earnings are deemed not indefinitely reinvested. The aggregate tax liability
recorded for unremitted earnings at December 31, 2025 is approximately $ 76,000 , which includes amounts accrued subsequent to the changes
in indefinite reinvestment determinations described above.
There are amounts of unremitted foreign earnings in countries other than Israel and Germany, which continue to be reinvested indefinitely, and the Company has made no
provision for incremental foreign income taxes and withholding taxes payable to foreign jurisdictions related to these amounts. Determination of the amount of the unrecognized deferred foreign tax liability for these amounts is not practicable
because of the complexities associated with its hypothetical calculation.

Vishay operates in a global environment with significant operations in various locations outside the United States. Accordingly, the consolidated income
tax rate is a composite rate reflecting our earnings and the applicable tax rates in the various locations where we operate. Part of Vishay's historical strategy has been to achieve cost savings through the transfer and expansion of manufacturing
operations to countries where it can take advantage of lower labor costs. With the reduction in the U.S. statutory rate to 21% beginning January 1, 2018, Vishay expects that its effective tax rate will be higher than the U.S. statutory rate,
excluding unusual transactions.
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 includes certain discrete tax items for changes in uncertain tax positions, valuation allowances,
tax rates, and other related items. These items totaled $ 13,657 in 2025. There were no unusual tax items for the years ended December

In 2024, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset and offsetting liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to an acquired net operating loss
carryover.
All of the unrecognized tax benefits of $ 33,003
and $ 32,500 , as of December 31, 2025
and 2024, respectively, would reduce the effective tax rate if recognized.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had
accrued interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefits of $ 1,422 and $ 1,564 , respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025,
2024, and 2023, the
Company recognized $ 360 , $ 303 ,
and $ 821 , respectively, in interest and penalties.
The Company and its subsidiaries file U.S. federal income tax returns, as well as tax returns in multiple states and foreign jurisdictions. During the
years ended December 31, 2025, 2024,
and 2023, certain tax examinations were concluded and certain statutes of limitations lapsed. The tax provision for those years
includes adjustments related to the resolution of these matters, as reflected in the table above. During 2023, the Company settled an examination of its U.S. federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2017 through 2019. The
federal income tax returns for the years 2022 through 2024 remain subject to examination. The tax returns of significant non-U.S. subsidiaries currently under examination are located in the following jurisdictions: Israel (2021), China (2022
through 2024), India (2004 through 2023), and Philippines (2020 through 2022). The Company and its subsidiaries also file income tax returns in other taxing jurisdictions in the U.S. and around the world, many of which are still open to
examination.
The timing of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain, as are the amounts and timing of tax payments that result from such
examinations. These events could cause large fluctuations in the balance sheet classification of current and non-current unrecognized tax benefits.

Agreement, which provides an aggregate commitment of $ 750,000 of
revolving loans available until May 8, 2028 . The Credit
Facility also provides for the ability of Vishay to request up to $ 300,000 of incremental facilities, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, which could take the form of additional revolving commitments, incremental “term loan A” or “term loan B” facilities, or incremental equivalent debt.
U.S. Dollar borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at Secured Overnight Financing Rate
("SOFR") plus a credit spread and an interest margin. The Credit Facility also allows for borrowings in euro, British sterling, and Japanese yen, subject to a $ 300,000 limit. Borrowings in foreign currency bear interest at a local reference rate plus an interest margin. The applicable
interest margin is based on the Company's total leverage ratio. Based on the Company's current total leverage ratio, borrowings bear interest at SOFR plus 2.10 % , including the applicable credit spread. The Company also pays a commitment fee, also based on its total leverage ratio,
on undrawn amounts. The undrawn commitment fee, based on the Company's total current leverage ratio, is 0.35 % per annum.
The Credit Facility requires the maintenance of financial covenant ratios. For compliance purposes, pursuant to the Credit Facility, the leverage
ratio is computed on a net basis, reducing the measure of outstanding debt by up to $ 250,000 of unrestricted cash. The Interest
Coverage Ratio is computed excluding capital expenditures. The Company must maintain a net leverage ratio of at least 3.25 to 1.00
and a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio of 3.25 to 1.00.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all assets, including accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and general
intangibles (but excluding real estate, intellectual property registered or licensed solely for use in, or arising solely under the laws of, any country other than the United States, assets located solely outside of the United States and deposit
and securities accounts), of the Company and certain significant subsidiaries located in the United States, and pledges of stock in certain significant domestic and foreign subsidiaries; and are guaranteed by certain significant subsidiaries.
The Credit Facility limits or restricts the Company and its subsidiaries, from, among other things,
incurring indebtedness, incurring liens on its respective assets, making investments and acquisitions (assuming the Company’s pro forma net leverage ratio is greater than 2.75 to 1.00), making asset sales, and paying cash dividends and making other restricted payments (assuming the Company's pro
forma net leverage ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1.00), and
requires the Company to comply with other covenants.
The Credit Facility also contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to
pay principal or interest, failure to pay or default under other material debt, material misrepresentation or breach of warranty, violation of certain covenants, a change of control, the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings, the insolvency of
the Company or certain of its significant subsidiaries, and the rendering of a judgment in excess of $ 50,000 against the Company or its
subsidiaries. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility, the Company's obligations under the credit facility may be accelerated and the lending commitments under the credit facility may be terminated.
At December 31, 2025 there was $ 253,984 accessible under the Credit Facility at the current EBITDA level. At December 31, 2024, there was $ 467,245 available under the Credit Facility. Letters of credit
totaling $ 11,988 and $ 2,062
were outstanding at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Convertible Senior Notes due 2030
In September 2023, the Company issued $ 750,000
aggregate principal amount of 2.25% convertible senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The Company used the net proceeds
from this offering to repurchase $ 370,242 principal amount of its outstanding 2.25% convertible senior notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”)
(as further described below), to reduce the outstanding balance of its Credit Facility, to enter into capped call transactions (as further described below), and for other general corporate purposes.
The 2030 Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.25% per year payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning March 15,
2024. The 2030 Notes mature on September 15, 2030 , unless earlier repurchased or converted.
The 2030 Notes are convertible into shares of Vishay common stock at an initial conversion rate of 33.1609 shares of common stock per $1 principal amount of the notes, subject to adjustment. This initial conversion price represents a premium of 20% to the closing price of
Vishay's common stock on September 7, 2023, which was $ 25.13 per share. This represents an initial effective conversion price of
approximately $ 30.16 per share. The conversion rate of the 2030 Notes is not adjusted for quarterly cash dividends equal to or less than
$ 0.10 per share of common stock. Pursuant to the indenture governing the 2030 Notes, the Company is required to satisfy its conversion
obligations by paying cash equal to the principal amount of notes and settle any additional value in cash and/or shares at its discretion. Vishay must provide additional shares upon conversion if there is a "fundamental change" in the business as
defined in the indenture governing the notes.
The Company may not redeem the 2030 Notes prior to September 20, 2027. The Company may redeem for cash all or part of the 2030 Notes, at its option, on
or after September 20, 2027, if the sale price of Vishay’s common stock has been at least 130% of the conversion price for a specified period at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and
unpaid interest. If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the outstanding 2030 Notes, at least $ 100,000 aggregate principal
amount of 2030 Notes must be outstanding and not subject to redemption.
Prior to March 15, 2030, the holders of the 2030 Notes may convert their notes only under the following conditions: (1) the sale price of Vishay common
stock reaches 130 % of the applicable conversion price for a specified period; (2) the trading price of the notes falls below 98 % of the product of the last reported sale price of Vishay’s common stock and the conversion rate for a specified period; (3) the Company calls any or
all of the 2030 Notes for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions.
Capped Call Transactions
In September 2023, in connection with the pricing and initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their option to purchase additional 2030 Notes, the Company
entered into separate base and additional privately negotiated capped call transactions with an affiliate of an initial purchaser and certain other financial institutions. The capped call will initially cover, subject to customary anti-dilution
adjustments, the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that initially underlie the 2030 Notes. The Company used $ 94,200
of the net proceeds from the 2030 Notes to pay the cost of the capped call transactions. The cap price of the capped call will initially be $ 43.98
per share, which represents a premium of approximately 75% over the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on September 7, 2023, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call.
The capped call transactions are separate transactions entered into by the Company with each of the capped call counterparties, are not part of the terms
of the 2030 Notes, and do not affect any holder’s rights under the 2030 Notes. Holders of the 2030 Notes do not have any rights with respect to the capped call. The capped call is classified within stockholders’ equity on the consolidated balance
sheet.

(continued)
Convertible Senior Notes due 2025
The Company used $ 386,745 of the net
proceeds from the 2023 offering of the 2030 Notes to repurchase $ 370,242 principal amount of its outstanding 2025 Notes. As a result,
the Company recognized a loss on early extinguishment of the 2025 Notes of $ 18,874 , including the write-off of a portion of unamortized
debt issuance costs. The Company repurchased $ 53,191 principal amount of its remaining outstanding 2025 Notes in 2024. The gain on early
extinguishment was not material.
The convertible senior notes due 2025 matured on June 15, 2025 . Upon
maturity, $ 41,911 aggregate principal amount of the convertible senior notes due 2025 were settled in cash, funded by borrowings on the
revolving credit facility. No shares were issued to settle the convertible senior notes due 2025.
Other Borrowings Information
The Credit Facility, of which $ 219,000
was drawn as of December 31, 2025, expires in 2028. The convertible senior notes mature in 2030.
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had committed and uncommitted credit lines with various foreign banks aggregating approximately $ 61,000 and $ 32,000 , respectively, with
substantially no amounts borrowed.
Interest paid was $ 33,812 , $ 21,732 , and $ 17,242 for the years ended
December 31, 2025, 2024,
and 2023, respectively. Deferred financing costs are recognized as non-cash interest expense. Non-cash
interest expense was $ 4,808 , $ 4,957 ,
and $ 3,735 for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity
The Company’s Class B common stock carries 10 votes per
share while the common stock carries 1 vote per share. Class B shares are transferable only to certain permitted transferees while the
common stock is freely transferable. Class B shares are convertible on a one-for-one basis at any time into shares of common stock.
Transfers of Class B shares other than to permitted transferees result in the automatic conversion of the Class B shares into common stock.
The Board of Directors may only declare dividends or other distributions with respect to the common stock or the Class B common stock if it grants such dividends or
distributions in the same amount per share with respect to the other class of stock. Stock dividends or distributions on any class of stock are payable only in shares of stock of that class. Shares of either common stock or Class B common stock
cannot be split, divided, or combined unless the other is also split, divided, or combined equally. Cash dividends were paid quarterly in 2025
and 2024.
The Credit Facility also allows an unlimited amount of defined "Restricted Payments," which include cash dividends and share repurchases, provided the Company's pro
forma net leverage ratio is equal to or less than 2.50 to 1.00. If the Company's pro forma net leverage ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1.00, the Credit Facility allows such payments up to $ 100,000
per annum (subject to a cap of $ 300,000 for the term of the facility, with up to $ 25,000 of any unused amount of the $ 100,000 per annum base available for use in
the next succeeding calendar year).
At December 31, 2025, the Company had reserved shares
of common stock for future issuance as follows:

In 2022, the Company's Board of Directors adopted a Stockholder Return Policy that will remain in effect until such time as the Board votes to amend or
rescind the policy. The Stockholder Return Policy calls for the Company to return a prescribed amount of cash flows on an annual basis. The Company intends to return such amounts directly, in the form of dividends, or indirectly, in the form
of stock repurchases.

Note 11 – Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company maintains various retirement benefit plans. GAAP requires employers to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan, measured as the difference between plan
assets at fair value and the benefit obligation, in its balance sheet. The recognition of the funded status on the balance sheet requires employers to recognize actuarial items (such as actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs, and transition
obligations) as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans
U.S. Pension Plans
The Company maintained several defined benefit pension plans which covered most full-time U.S. employees. These included pension plans which are “qualified” under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and the Internal Revenue Code, and “non-qualified” pension plans which provide defined benefits primarily to U.S. employees whose benefits under the qualified pension plan would be limited by
ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code. The Company’s principal qualified U.S. pension plan (the Vishay Retirement Plan) was frozen effective January 1, 2009 and terminated in 2016.
The Company’s principal non-qualified U.S. pension plan (the Vishay Non-qualified Retirement Plan) was a contributory pension plan designed to provide similar defined
benefits to covered U.S. employees whose benefits under the Vishay Retirement Plan were limited by the Internal Revenue Code. The Vishay Non-qualified Retirement Plan was similar in construction to the Vishay Retirement Plan, except that the plan is
not qualified under the Internal Revenue Code.
The Vishay Non-qualified Retirement Plan, like all non-qualified plans, is considered to be unfunded. The Company maintains a non-qualified trust, referred to as a
“rabbi” trust, to fund benefit payments under this plan. Rabbi trust assets are subject to creditor claims under certain conditions and are not the property of employees. Therefore, they are accounted for as other noncurrent assets. Assets held in
trust related to the non-qualified pension plan were $ 20,067 and $ 19,842 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
F-32
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
Note 11 – Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits (continued)
In 2008, the Company adopted amendments to the Vishay Non-Qualified Retirement Plan such that effective January 1, 2009, the plan was frozen. Pursuant to these
amendments, no new employees may participate in the plans, no further participant contributions were required or permitted, and no further benefits shall accrue after December 31, 2008. Benefits accumulated as of December 31, 2008 will be paid to
employees upon or following retirement, and the Company will likely need to make additional cash contributions to the rabbi trust to fund this accumulated benefit obligation.
The Company also maintains other pension plans which provide supplemental defined benefits primarily to former U.S. employees whose benefits under qualified pension
plans were limited by the Internal Revenue Code. These non-qualified plans are all non-contributory plans, and are considered to be unfunded.
In 2004, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Felix Zandman, its former Executive Chairman and then-Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to this
agreement, the Company is providing an annual retirement benefit of approximately $ 614 to his surviving spouse. The Company maintains a
non-qualified trust, referred to as a “rabbi” trust, to fund benefit payments under this plan. Rabbi trust assets are subject to creditor claims under certain conditions and are not the property of employees. Therefore, they are accounted for as
other noncurrent assets. Assets held in trust related to this non-qualified pension plan were $ 484 and $ 1,065 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Non-U.S. Pension Plans
The Company provides pension and similar benefits to employees of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries consistent with local practices. Pension benefits earned are generally
based on years of service and compensation during active employment.

See Note 10 for the pretax, tax effect and after tax amounts included in other comprehensive income during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023. The estimated actuarial items for the defined benefit pensions plans that will be amortized from

The plans’ expected return on assets is based on management’s expectations of long-term average rates of return to be achieved by the underlying investment portfolios.
In establishing this assumption, management considers historical and expected returns for the asset classes in which the plans are invested, advice from pension consultants and investment advisors, and current economic and capital market conditions.
The investment mix between equity securities and fixed income securities is based upon achieving a desired return, balancing higher return, more volatile equity
securities, and lower return, less volatile fixed income securities and is adjusted for the expected duration of the obligation and the funded status of the plan. Investment allocations are made across a range of securities, maturities and credit
quality. The Company’s non-U.S. defined benefit plan investments are based on local laws and customs. Most plans invest in cash and local government fixed income securities, although plans in certain countries have investments in equity
securities. The plans do not invest in securities of Vishay or its subsidiaries. Negative investment returns could ultimately affect the funded status of the plans, requiring additional cash contributions. See Note 18 for further information on
the fair value of the plan assets by asset category.

As the plans are unfunded, the Company’s anticipated contributions for 2026 are equal to its estimated benefits payments.
Other Retirement Obligations
The Company participates in various other defined contribution and government-mandated retirement plans based on local law or custom. The Company periodically makes
required contributions for certain of these plans, whereas other plans are unfunded retirement bonus plans which will be paid at the employee's retirement date. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
include $ 11,027 and $ 10,518 ,
respectively, within accrued pension and other postretirement costs related to these plans.
The Company’s U.S. employees are eligible to participate in a 401(k) savings plan, which provides for Company matching contributions. The Company’s matching expense for
the plans was $ 7,821 , $ 7,915 ,
and $ 7,641 for the years ended December 31, 2025,
2024, and 2023,
respectively. No material amounts are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2025 and 2024 related to unfunded 401(k) contributions.
Certain key employees participate in a deferred compensation plan. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, these employees could defer a portion of their compensation until retirement, or elect shorter deferral periods. The Company maintains a liability within other
noncurrent liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets related to these deferrals. The Company maintains a non-qualified trust, referred to as a “rabbi” trust, to fund payments under this plan. Rabbi trust assets are subject to creditor claims
under certain conditions and are not the property of employees. Therefore, they are accounted for as other noncurrent assets. Assets held in trust related to the deferred compensation plan at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were approximately $ 34,891 and $ 32,601 , respectively.

Note 12 – Stock-Based Compensation
2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan
The Company implemented the Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. 2023 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2023 Plan") after receiving stockholder approval at its 2023
Annual Meeting of Stockholders on May 23, 2023. The 2023 Plan allows the Company to grant up to 6,000,000 shares (subject to certain
adjustments described in the 2023 Plan) of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards, phantom stock units, and other cash-based awards to employees, directors, consultants, and
other service providers of the Company and its affiliates. Such instruments are available for grant until March 24, 2033 . At December
31, 2025, the Company has reserved 1,524,000
shares of common stock for future grants of equity awards pursuant to the 2023 Plan.
2007 Stock Incentive Program
Under the Company's 2007 Stock Incentive Program (the "2007 Program"), as amended and restated, certain executive officers and board members of the
Company were granted restricted stock units. No further awards will be granted pursuant to the 2007 Program. Pursuant to the terms of the 2023 Plan, any shares of common stock that are subject to outstanding awards granted pursuant to the 2007
Program that subsequently cease to be subject to such awards as a result of the termination, expiration, cancellation, or forfeiture of such awards and any shares of common stock withheld in settlement of tax withholding obligations associated with
outstanding awards granted pursuant to the 2007 Program may become available for issuance under the 2023 Plan.
All RSUs granted pursuant to the 2007 Program and the 2023 Plan contain service vesting conditions. Certain RSUs also contain performance or market
vesting conditions. The Company recognizes compensation cost for RSUs that are expected to vest and records cumulative adjustments in the period that the expectation changes.

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to various federal, state, local, and foreign laws and regulations governing environmental matters, including the use, discharge, and disposal of
hazardous materials. The Company’s manufacturing facilities are believed to be in substantial compliance with current laws and regulations. Complying with current laws and regulations has not had a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial
condition.
The Company has engaged environmental consultants and attorneys to assist management in evaluating potential liabilities related to environmental matters. Management
assesses the input from these consultants along with other information known to the Company in its effort to continually monitor these potential liabilities. Management assesses its environmental exposure on a site-by-site basis, including those
sites where the Company has been named as a “potentially responsible party.” Such assessments include the Company’s share of remediation costs, information known to the Company concerning the size of the hazardous waste sites, their years of
operation, and the number of past users and their financial viability.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has accrued
environmental liabilities of $ 14,468 , of which $ 5,626 is included in other accrued liabilities on the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet , and $ 8,842 is
included in other noncurrent liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
While the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be determined, management does not believe that the final disposition of these matters will have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company’s present and past facilities have been in operation for many years. These facilities have used substances and have generated and disposed of
wastes which are or might be considered hazardous. Therefore, it is possible that additional environmental issues may arise in the future, which the Company cannot now predict.
Litigation
The Company is a party to various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. The Company is of the opinion that these litigations or claims will not
have a material negative effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Long-Term Purchase Agreements
The Company maintains long-term purchase agreements with subcontractors, suppliers, and other business partners to ensure access to external capacity and supply. The
Company has minimum purchase commitments pursuant to certain of its long-term arrangements with its subcontractors and other suppliers and business partners of $ 71,806 , $ 15,563 , $ 1,766 and for the years 2026 through 2028, respectively. The Company has the option to purchase amounts in addition to the minimum commitment and, accordingly, actual purchases may be
different than the amounts disclosed above. The Company exceeded its minimum purchase commitments in 2025.
Product Quality Claims
The Company is a party to various product quality claims in the normal course of business. See Note 1 for further information on the Company's warranty obligations.
Executive Employment Agreements
The Company has employment agreements with certain of its senior executives. These employment agreements provide incremental compensation in the event of termination.
The Company does not provide any severance or other benefits specifically upon a change in control.

Note 14 – Current Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations
Market Concentrations
No customer represented greater than 10% of consolidated net revenue in 2025,
2024, or 2023.
A material portion of the Company's revenues are derived from the worldwide industrial, automotive, telecommunications, and computing markets. These markets have
historically experienced wide variations in demand for end products. If demand for these end products should decrease, the producers thereof could reduce their purchases of the Company's products, which could have an adverse effect on the Company's
results of operations and financial position.
Certain subsidiaries and product lines have customers which comprise greater than 10% of the subsidiary's or product line's net revenues. The loss of one of these
customers could have a material effect on the results of operations of the subsidiary or product line and financial position of the subsidiary, which could result in an impairment charge which could be material to the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
Credit Risk Concentrations
Financial instruments with potential credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, and notes receivable.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to receivables are generally limited due to the Company’s large number of customers and their dispersion across many countries and industries. As of December 31, 2025, one customer comprised 12.8 % of the Company's accounts receivable balance. No customer comprised greater than 10% of the Company's accounts receivable balance as of December 31,
2024. The Company continually monitors the credit risks associated with its accounts receivable and adjusts the allowance for uncollectible accounts accordingly. The credit risk exposure associated with the accounts receivable is limited by the
allowance and is not considered material to the financial statements.
The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments with various major financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk related to
the potential inability to access liquidity in financial institutions where its cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are concentrated. As of December 31, 2025, the following financial institutions held over 10% of the Company’s combined cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments balance:
JPMorgan*
23.1

MUFG Bank Ltd.*

* Participant in Credit Facility
Sources of Supplies
The production and sale of the Company’s products is reliant on a complex global interconnected supply chain of vendors, manufacturing facilities, third-party foundries
and subcontractors, shipping partners, distributors, and end market customers. Disruption in one part of the supply chain could cause disruption in all other parts of the supply chain. Global shipping impacts several parts of the supply chain and
the disruption experienced in recent years has, at times, negatively impacted the Company’s ability to manufacture products and to deliver them to customers.
Although most materials incorporated into the Company's products are available from a number of sources, certain materials, including plastics and metals, are produced
in only a limited number of regions around the world or are available from only a limited number of suppliers. Suppliers periodically extend lead times, face capacity constraints, limit supplies, increase prices, experience quality issues, or
encounter cybersecurity or other issues that can interrupt or increase the cost of our supply. The unavailability or reduced availability of these materials could require the Company to temporarily cease or reduce production or incur additional
costs.
Customer requirements and certain laws pertaining to the responsible sourcing of materials, including tantalum, tungsten, tin, gold, and cobalt, all of which are used in
the Company’s products, are increasing and becoming more stringent. Responsible sourcing efforts may result in increased prices and decreased availability of these materials.
Many of the metals used in the manufacture of the Company’s products, including gold, copper, and palladium, are traded on active markets and can be subject to
significant price volatility. To ensure adequate supply and to provide cost certainty, the Company’s policy is to enter into short-term commitments to purchase defined portions of annual consumption of the raw materials utilized if market prices
decline below budget. If after entering into these commitments, the market prices for these raw materials decline, losses are recognized on these adverse purchase commitments.

Note 14 – Current Vulnerability Due to Certain Concentrations (continued)
The Company's production can be disrupted by the unavailability of resources, such as water, energy, and gases. The unavailability or reduced availability of these
resources could require the Company to reduce production or incur additional costs.
The Company uses third-party foundries and subcontractors for certain of its manufacturing activities, primarily wafer fabrication, the assembly and testing of finished
goods, and the manufacturing of certain commodity products. Establishing third-party contract manufacturer relationships can be time consuming and costly, and the number of qualified providers is limited. The Company's agreements with these
manufacturers typically require it to commit to purchase services based on forecasted product needs, which may be inaccurate, and, in some cases, require the recognition of losses on these adverse purchase commitments. The Company's agreements may
limit its ability to increase production, particularly during periods of growing demand for our products.
Geographic Concentration
The Company has operations outside the United States, and approximately 76 %
of revenues earned during 2025 were derived from sales to customers outside the United States. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, $ 501,856 of the Company’s cash and
cash equivalents and short-term investments were held by subsidiaries outside of the United States. Some of the Company’s products are produced and cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are held in countries which are subject to risks
of political, economic, and military instability. This instability could result in wars, riots, nationalization of industry, currency fluctuations, and labor unrest. These conditions could have an adverse impact on the Company’s ability to operate
in these regions and, depending on the extent and severity of these conditions, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s overall financial condition, operating results, and ability to access its liquidity when needed.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash
equivalents and short-term investments were concentrated in the following countries:

Vishay has been in operation in Israel for 55 years . The
Company has never experienced any material interruption in its operations attributable to these factors, in spite of several Middle East crises, including wars.

Note 15 – Segment and Geographic Data
Vishay is a global manufacturer and supplier of electronic components. Vishay operates, and its chief operating decision maker makes strategic and operating decisions
with regards to assessing performance and allocating resources based on, six reporting segments: MOSFETs, Diodes, Optoelectronic
Components, Resistors, Inductors, and Capacitors. These segments represent groupings of product lines based on their functionality:
●
Metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors ("MOSFETs") function as solid state switches to control power.
●
Diodes route, regulate, and block radio frequency, analog, and power signals; protect systems from surges or electrostatic discharge damage; or provide
electromagnetic interference filtering.
●
Optoelectronic components emit light, detect light, or do both.
●
Resistors are basic components used in all forms of electronic circuitry to adjust and regulate levels of voltage and current.
●
Inductors use an internal magnetic field to change alternating current phase and resist alternating current.
●
Capacitors store energy and discharge it when needed.
Vishay's reporting segments generate substantially all of their revenue from product sales to the industrial, automotive, telecommunications, computing, consumer
products, power supplies, military and aerospace, and healthcare end markets. An immaterial portion of revenues are from royalties.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker is its President and Chief Executive Officer. The chief operating decision maker uses both gross profit
and operating income, exclusive of certain items ("segment operating income") to make decisions, allocate resources, and assess performance, and the Company thus considers segment gross profit and operating income to be its measures of segment
profit or loss. Only dedicated, direct selling, general, and administrative expenses of the segments are included in the calculation of segment operating income. The Company's calculation of segment operating income excludes selling, general,
and administrative costs of its global operations, sales and marketing, information systems, finance, and administration groups, as well as restructuring and severance costs, goodwill impairment charges, and other items affecting comparability.
Management believes that evaluating segment performance excluding such items is meaningful because it provides insight with respect to intrinsic operating results of the Company. These items represent reconciling items between segment operating
income and consolidated operating income. Business segment assets are the owned or allocated assets used by each business.
Cost of products sold (excluding depreciation) is defined as the aggregate costs incurred in the production of goods for sale, excluding depreciation
expense.
Depreciation expense in cost of products sold is defined as the aggregate expense recognized for the allocation of costs of tangible assets used in the
production of goods to the periods that benefit from the use of the assets. It excludes depreciation expense attributed to selling, general, and administrative activities.
Segment gross profit is calculated as net revenues determined based on the U.S. GAAP definition, minus costs of goods sold and depreciation expense, as
defined above.
Segment operating expenses is defined as the dedicated, direct selling, general, and administrative expenses, including research and development expenses
attributed to the segment.

If the average market price of Vishay common stock is less than the effective conversion price of the convertible senior notes due 2030 no shares are
included in the diluted earnings per share computation for the convertible senior notes due 2030. Pursuant to the indenture governing the convertible senior notes due 2030, Vishay will satisfy its conversion obligations by paying $1 cash per $1
principal amount of converted notes and settle any additional amounts due in cash and/or common stock. Similarly, the convertible senior notes due 2025 were considered, but not included, in the diluted earnings per share computation for any period
presented or any period they were outstanding.
In connection with the issuance of the convertible senior notes due 2030, the Company entered into capped call transactions (see Note
6), which were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive. The capped calls are intended to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's common stock in the event that at the time
of conversion of the convertible senior notes due 2030 the Company's common stock price exceeds the conversion price of the convertible senior notes due 2030.

There have been no changes in the classification of any financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy in the periods presented.
During the third and fourth fiscal quarters of 2024, the Company performed quantitative goodwill impairment tests in which the fair value of the Company's reporting
units was calculated. See additional information on the impairment tests in Note 19.
The Company maintains non-qualified trusts, referred to as “rabbi” trusts, to fund payments under deferred compensation and non-qualified pension plans. Rabbi trust
assets consist primarily of marketable securities, classified as available-for-sale, and company-owned life insurance assets. The marketable securities held in the rabbi trusts are valued using quoted market prices on the last business day of the
year. The company-owned life insurance assets are valued in consultation with the Company’s insurance brokers using the value of underlying assets of the insurance contracts. The fair value measurement of the marketable securities held in the rabbi
trust is considered a Level 1 measurement and the measurement of the company-owned life insurance assets is considered a Level 2 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
The Company maintains defined benefit retirement plans in certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries. The assets of the plans are measured at fair value.
Equity securities held by the non-U.S. defined benefit retirement plans consist of equity securities that are valued based on quoted market prices on the last business
day of the year. The fair value measurement of the equity securities is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
Fixed income securities held by the non-U.S. defined benefit retirement plans consist of government bonds in the Philippines and India and corporate notes that are
valued based on quoted market prices on the last business day of the year. The fair value measurement of the fixed income securities is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
Cash held by the non-U.S. defined benefit retirement plans consists of demand deposits on account in various financial institutions to fund current benefit payments. The
carrying amount of the cash approximates its fair value.
The Company holds investments in debt securities that are intended to fund a portion of its pension and other postretirement benefit obligations outside of the U.S. The
investments are valued based on quoted market prices on the last business day of the year. The fair value measurement of the investments is considered a Level 1 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.

Note 18 – Fair Value Measurements (continued)
The Company may be required to make certain contingent consideration payments to related to acquisitions. The fair value of these contingent payments is determined by
estimating the net present value of the expected cash flows based on the probability of expected payments. The fair value measurement of the contingent consideration payments is considered a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the long-term debt, excluding the deferred financing costs, at December 31, 2025 and 2024 is approximately $ 896,100 and $ 850,600 , respectively,
compared to its carrying value, excluding the deferred financing costs, of $ 969,000 and $ 927,911 , respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using a combination of quoted market prices for similar financing arrangements and expected
future payments discounted at risk-adjusted rates, which are considered level 2 inputs.
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s short-term investments were comprised of time deposits with financial institutions that have maturities that exceed 90 days from the
date of acquisition; however they all mature within one year from the respective balance sheet dates. The Company's short-term investments are accounted for as held-to-maturity debt instruments, at amortized cost, which approximates their fair
value. The investments are funded with excess cash not expected to be needed for operations prior to maturity; therefore, the Company believes it has the intent and ability to hold the short-term investments until maturity. At each reporting date,
the Company performs an evaluation to determine if any unrealized losses are other-than-temporary. No other-than-temporary
impairments have been recognized on these securities, and there are no unrecognized holding gains or losses for these securities
during the periods presented. There have been no transfers to or from the held-to-maturity classification. All decreases in the
account balance are due to returns of principal at the securities’ maturity dates. Interest on the securities is recognized as interest income when earned.
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were comprised of demand deposits, time deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased,
and money market funds. The Company estimates the fair value of its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments using level 2 inputs. Based on the current interest rates for similar investments with comparable credit risk and time to maturity,
the fair value of the Company's cash, cash equivalents, and held-to-maturity short-term investments approximate the carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company’s financial instruments also include accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying amounts for these financial instruments reported in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximate their fair values.

Note 19 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
When required to perform quantitative goodwill impairment assessments, the Company estimates the fair value of each of its business segments, which
represent its reporting units for goodwill impairment testing purposes, using mostly Level 3 inputs. Assessments are performed using a weighting of the income and market approaches to determine fair value. The Company uses a discounted cash flow
(“DCF”) method, using unobservable inputs, as its income approach. The Company uses comparable company market multiples for its market approach. The resulting estimates of fair value from the income approach and the market approach are then
weighted equally in determining the overall estimated fair value of each reporting unit.
The determination of the fair value of the reporting units and the allocation of that value to individual assets and liabilities within those reporting
units requires the Company to make significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions primarily include, but are not limited to: the selection of appropriate peer group companies; control premiums appropriate for acquisitions in
the industries in which the Company competes; the discount rate; terminal growth rates; and forecasts of revenue, operating income, depreciation and amortization (components of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, "EBITDA");
and capital expenditures.
Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making these estimates, actual financial results could differ from those estimates. Changes in assumptions
concerning future financial results or other underlying assumptions could have a significant impact on results of the assessment.
We performed a qualitative annual impairment test in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2025. Based on the evaluation, it was determined that the fair value
of the reporting units were not more likely than not less than their respective carrying amounts. No goodwill impairment charges were recognized in 2025 as a result.
In 2024, the Company determined that the fair value of its MOSFETs reporting unit was less than its carrying value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a
goodwill impairment charge of $ 66,487 . Prior to completing the goodwill impairment assessment, the Company performed a recoverability
test of certain depreciable and amortizable long-lived assets within the MOSFETs reporting unit. There was no impairment identified for the depreciable and amortizable long-lived assets tested for recoverability.
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by segment for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

Note 20 – Related Party Transactions
Vishay Precision Group, Inc.
On July 6, 2010, Vishay completed the spin-off of its measurements and foil resistors businesses into an independent, publicly-traded company, Vishay Precision Group,
Inc. ("VPG"). Vishay’s common stockholders received 1 share of VPG common stock for every 14 shares of Vishay common stock they held on
the record date, June 25, 2010, and Vishay’s Class B common stockholders received 1 share of VPG Class B common stock for every 14 shares of Vishay Class B common stock they held on the record date.
Following the spin-off, VPG is an independent company and Vishay retains no ownership interest.
Relationship with VPG after Spin-off
Following the spin-off, VPG and Vishay operate separately, each as independent public companies. Vishay has no ownership interest in VPG. However, Ruta Zandman, solely
or on a shared basis with Marc Zandman and Ziv Shoshani, control a large portion of the voting power of both Vishay and VPG. Ruta Zandman and Marc Zandman are members of Vishay's Board of Directors. Marc Zandman, Vishay's Executive Chairman of the
Board and an executive officer of Vishay, previously served on the VPG Board of Directors until his resignation, effective immediately before the election of directors at the VPG 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Ziv Shoshani, CEO of VPG and a
nephew of Ruta Zandman and a brother of Roy Shoshani, Vishay's Executive Vice President - Chief Operating Officer - Semiconductors and Chief Technical Officer, previously served as a director on the Vishay Board of Directors until his resignation,
effective immediately before the election of directors at the Vishay 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. As of December 31, 2025, there are no common board members between Vishay and VPG.
In connection with the completion of the spin-off, Vishay and its subsidiaries entered into several agreements with VPG and its subsidiaries that govern the relationship
of the parties following the spin-off. Among the agreements entered into with VPG and its subsidiaries were a transition services agreement, several lease agreements, and supply agreements. None of the agreements have had nor are expected to have a
material impact on Vishay’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Some of these agreements have expired and have not been renewed.
Vishay also entered into a trademark license agreement with VPG pursuant to which Vishay granted VPG the license to use certain trademarks, service marks, logos, trade
names, entity names, and domain names which include the term “Vishay.” The license granted VPG the limited, exclusive, royalty-free right and license to use certain marks and names incorporating the term “Vishay” in connection with the design,
development, manufacture, marketing, provision and performance of certain VPG products that do not compete with any products within Vishay’s product range as constituted immediately following the separation and certain services provided in connection
with the products. The license cannot be terminated except as a result of willful misconduct or liquidation bankruptcy of VPG.
