- NXP is currently in the process of completing its annual audit for the year ended December 31, 2021, for which we expect to complete and file our Annual Report on Form 10-K timely, by the end of February 2022. The Company, in its assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, expects to report a material weakness in internal control. As of the date of this release there have been no misstatements identified in the financial statements, and we expect there will be no changes to previously released financial results. The expected material weakness is associated with ineffective information technology general controls in the areas of user access, change-management and information technology (IT) operations over certain IT systems that support the Company’s financial reporting processes. Management has been implementing and continues to implement measures designed to ensure that control deficiencies contributing to the expected material weakness are remediated, such that these controls are designed, implemented and operating effectively. The Company expects that the remediation process will be completed prior to the end of 2022.
