Qorvo ( (QRVO) ) has shared an update.

On October 27, 2025, Qorvo entered into a merger agreement under which it would be acquired through a two-step merger structure by Skyworks Solutions, with Qorvo initially becoming a wholly owned subsidiary before being folded into a Skyworks merger vehicle. On February 5, 2026, both Qorvo and Skyworks received formal Second Requests for additional information from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission as part of its antitrust review, extending the Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period until 30 days after both companies substantially comply. The deal, which has already cleared key procedural steps including the effectiveness of a joint registration and proxy statement mailed to shareholders in late December 2025, remains contingent on U.S. and foreign regulatory clearances and other closing conditions, underscoring that the transaction’s timing and completion—and thus its potential impact on industry consolidation and on shareholders—depend heavily on the outcome of ongoing regulatory scrutiny.

The most recent analyst rating on (QRVO) stock is a Hold with a $87.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Qorvo stock, see the QRVO Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on QRVO Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, QRVO is a Neutral.

Overall score reflects improving fundamentals driven by a TTM profitability rebound, solid free cash flow, and manageable leverage, supported by earnings-call targets for higher margins. Offsetting factors are a relatively weak technical setup, a high P/E without dividend support, and near-term revenue headwinds (notably the planned Android exposure reduction and mid-single-digit FY2027 revenue decline).
