Item 8.01 Other Events.
    
On January 30, 2019, the board of directors of Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”), authorized the repurchase of up to $2.0 billion of the Company’s common stock from time to time prior to January 30, 2021, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements. This newly authorized stock repurchase program replaces in its entirety the $1.0 billion stock repurchase program which was approved by the board of directors on January 31, 2018, and had approximately $129 million of repurchase authority remaining.
    
The timing and amount of any shares of the Company’s common stock that are repurchased under the new repurchase program will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Company currently expects to fund the repurchase program using the Company’s working capital.
