Integrating Microsemi Acquisition
"Our June-quarter financial results were strong," Chief Executive Steve Sanghi said in a news release.
The company is working on integrating its acquisition of Microsemi, which closed on May 29, he said. That deal was valued at more than $10 billion.
"While we have lots of work to do to achieve our long-term financial targets, we have high confidence in our team's ability to achieve these results over time," Sanghi said.
