Safe Harbor Forward-looking statements This presentation includes
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our plans, objectives,

forward-looking statements or publicly announce the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements, other than as is required under U.S. federal securities laws. Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including
those relating to fluctuations in our operating results on a quarterly and annual basis; our substantial dependence on developing new products and achieving design wins; our dependence on several large customers for a substantial portion of our
revenue; a loss of revenue if defense and aerospace contracts are canceled or delayed; our dependence on third parties; risks related to sales through distributors; risks associated with the operation of our manufacturing facilities; business
disruptions; poor manufacturing yields; increased inventory risks and costs, due to timing of customers' forecasts; our inability to effectively manage or maintain relationships with chipset suppliers; our ability to continue to innovate in a very
competitive industry; underutilization of manufacturing facilities; unfavorable changes in interest rates, pricing of certain precious metals, utility rates and foreign currency exchange rates; our acquisitions, divestitures and other strategic
investments failing to achieve financial or strategic objectives; our ability to attract, retain and motivate key employees; warranty claims, product recalls and product liability; changes in our effective tax rate; enactment of international or

our IT systems; theft, loss or misuse of personal data by or about our employees, customers or third parties; provisions in our governing documents and Delaware law may discourage takeovers and business combinations that our stockholders might
consider to be in their best interests; and volatility in the price of our common stock. These and other risks and uncertainties, which are described in more detail under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2024, and Qorvo’s subsequent reports and statements that we file with the SEC, could cause actual results and developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any of these

Investor Day Presentation Supplemental information on Non-GAAP
financial measures In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this presentation contains some or all of the following non-GAAP financial measures:
(i) non-GAAP revenue, (ii) non-GAAP gross margin, (iii) non-GAAP operating margin, (iv) non- GAAP operating expenses (research and development; selling, general and administrative), (v) non-GAAP net income per diluted share, (vi) free cash flow,
(vii) non- GAAP return on invested capital (ROIC), and (viii) net debt. Each of these non-GAAP financial measures is either adjusted from GAAP results to exclude certain expenses or derived from multiple GAAP measures, as described below. For a
reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to our earnings releases for the relevant performance periods, available on our Investor Relations website at ir.qorvo.com under Financial Releases, or the Reconciliation of GAAP to
non- GAAP Financial Measures section included at the end of this presentation. In managing Qorvo's business on a consolidated basis, management develops an annual operating plan, which is approved by our Board of Directors, using non- GAAP financial
measures. In developing and monitoring performance against this plan, management considers the actual or potential impacts on these non-GAAP financial measures from actions taken to reduce costs with the goal of increasing gross margin and operating
margin. In addition, management relies upon these non-GAAP financial measures to assess whether research and development efforts are at an appropriate level, and when making decisions about product spending, administrative budgets, and other
operating expenses. Also, we believe that non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors and enable investors to analyze the results of operations in the same way as management. We have chosen to provide this
supplemental information to enable investors to perform additional comparisons of our operating results, to assess our liquidity and capital position and to analyze financial performance excluding the effect of expenses unrelated to operations, and
stock-based compensation expense, which may obscure trends in Qorvo's underlying performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures offer an additional view of Qorvo's operations that, when coupled with the GAAP results and the
reconciliations to corresponding GAAP financial measures where necessary, provide a more complete understanding of Qorvo's results of operations and the factors and trends affecting Qorvo's business. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should
be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. © 2024 Qorvo US, Inc. | Qorvo Confidential & Proprietary Information 90
Investor Day Presentation Supplemental information on Non-GAAP
financial measures (continued) Our rationale for using these non-GAAP financial measures, as well as their impact on the presentation of Qorvo's operations, are outlined below: Non-GAAP revenue. Non-GAAP revenue (for fiscal 2016) excludes non-cash
deferred royalty revenue. We believe that the exclusion of this non-cash adjustment to revenue provides management and investors a more effective means of evaluating our historical and projected performance. Non-GAAP gross margin. Non-GAAP gross
margin excludes amortization of intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring-related charges, acquisition and integration-related costs and certain other expenses. We believe that exclusion of these costs in presenting non-GAAP
gross margin facilitates a useful evaluation of our historical performance and projected costs and the potential for realizing cost efficiencies. We view amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, such as the amortization of the cost
associated with an acquired company’s research and development efforts, trade names, and customer relationships, as items arising from pre-acquisition activities, determined at the time of an acquisition, rather than ongoing costs of operating
Qorvo’s business. While these intangible assets are continually evaluated for impairment, amortization of the cost of purchased intangible assets is a static expense, which is not typically affected by operations during any particular period.
Although we exclude the amortization of purchased intangible assets from these non-GAAP financial measures, management believes that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets were recorded as part of purchase price
accounting and contribute to revenue generation. We believe that presentation of non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of stock- based compensation expense assists management and investors in evaluating
the period-over-period performance of Qorvo's ongoing operations because (i) the expenses are non-cash in nature, and (ii) although the size of the grants is within our control, the amount of expense varies depending on factors such as short-term
fluctuations in stock price volatility and prevailing interest rates, which can be unrelated to the operational performance of Qorvo during the period in which the expense is incurred and generally are outside the control of management. Moreover, we
believe that the exclusion of stock-based compensation expense in presenting non-GAAP gross margin and other non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors to understand the impact of the expensing of stock-based compensation to Qorvo's gross
margins and other financial measures in comparison to prior periods. We also believe that the adjustments to profit and margin related to restructuring-related charges and acquisition and integration-related costs do not constitute part of Qorvo's
ongoing operations and therefore the exclusion of these items provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues over time and facilitates a useful evaluation of our historical and projected
performance. We believe disclosure of non-GAAP gross margin has economic substance because the excluded expenses do not represent continuing cash expenditures and, as described above, we have little control over the timing and amount of the expenses
in question. Non-GAAP gross margin also excludes net adjustments related to a long-term capacity reservation agreement as we believe these net adjustments are not reflective of the performance of our ongoing business. © 2024 Qorvo US, Inc. |
Qorvo Confidential & Proprietary Information 91
Investor Day Presentation Supplemental information on Non-GAAP
financial measures (continued) Non-GAAP operating expenses and operating margin. Non-GAAP operating expenses and operating margin exclude stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition and integration-related costs,
goodwill impairment, restructuring-related charges, net adjustments related to a long- term capacity reservation agreement, gain or loss on disposal of business and assets and certain other expenses or income. We believe that presentation of a
measure of operating expenses and operating margin that excludes amortization of intangible assets and stock-based compensation expense is useful to both management and investors for the same reasons as described above with respect to our use of
non-GAAP gross margin. We believe that acquisition and integration- related costs, goodwill impairment, restructuring-related charges, net adjustments related to a long-term capacity reservation agreement, gain or loss on disposal of business and
assets and certain other expenses or income do not constitute part of Qorvo's ongoing operations and therefore, the exclusion of these costs provides management and investors with better visibility into the actual costs required to generate revenues
over time and facilitates a useful evaluation of our historical and projected performance. We believe disclosure of non-GAAP operating expenses and operating margin has economic substance because the excluded expenses are either unrelated to ongoing
operations or do not represent current cash expenditures. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share excludes the effects of stock-based compensation expense, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition and
integration-related costs, goodwill impairment, restructuring-related charges, net adjustments related to a long-term capacity reservation agreement, gain or loss on disposal of business and assets, start-up costs, certain other expenses or income,
gain or loss on investments, and also reflect an adjustment of income taxes. The income tax adjustment primarily represents the use of research and development tax credit carryforwards, deferred tax expense or benefit items not affecting taxes
payable, adjustments related to the deemed and actual repatriation of historical foreign earnings, non-cash expense or benefit related to uncertain tax positions and other items unrelated to the current fiscal year or that are not indicative of our
ongoing business operations. We believe that presentation of measures of net income per diluted share that exclude these items is useful to both management and investors for the reasons described above with respect to non-GAAP gross margin and
non-GAAP operating expenses and operating margin. We believe disclosure of non-GAAP net income per diluted share has economic substance because the excluded expenses are either unrelated to ongoing operations or do not represent current cash
expenditures. © 2024 Qorvo US, Inc. | Qorvo Confidential & Proprietary Information 92
Investor Day Presentation Supplemental information on Non-GAAP
financial measures (continued) Free cash flow. Qorvo defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities during the period minus property and equipment expenditures made during the period, and free cash flow margin is calculated as
free cash flow as a percentage of revenue. We use free cash flow as a supplemental financial measure in our evaluation of liquidity and financial strength. Management believes that this measure is useful as an indicator of our ability to service our
debt, meet other payment obligations and make strategic investments. Free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net income as a measure of our performance and net cash provided by operating activities as a
measure of our liquidity. Additionally, our definition of free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required
for debt service and other contractual obligations. Therefore, we believe it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to our entire statement of cash flows. Non-GAAP ROIC. Return on invested capital
(ROIC) is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes provides useful supplemental information for management and the investor by measuring the effectiveness of our operations' use of invested capital to generate profits. We use ROIC to
track how much value we are creating for our shareholders. Non-GAAP ROIC is calculated by dividing annualized non-GAAP operating income, net of an adjustment for income taxes (as described above), by average invested capital. Average invested
capital is calculated by subtracting the average of the beginning balance and the ending balance of equity plus net debt, less certain goodwill. Net debt. Net debt is defined as unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments minus
any borrowings under our credit facility and the principal balance of our senior unsecured notes. Management believes that net debt provides useful information regarding the level of Qorvo's indebtedness by reflecting cash and investments that could
be used to repay debt. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures. This presentation contains forward-looking measures including gross margin and operating margin. We provide these non-GAAP measures to investors on a prospective basis for the same
reasons (set forth above) that we provide them to investors on a historical basis. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures
without unreasonable effort due to variability and difficulty in making accurate projections for items that would be required to be included in the GAAP measures, such as stock-based compensation, amortization of intangible assets, acquisition and
integration-related costs, restructuring-related charges, gain or loss on disposal of business and assets and goodwill impairment, which could have a potentially significant impact on our future GAAP results. © 2024 Qorvo US, Inc. | Qorvo

Investor Day Presentation Supplemental information on Non-GAAP
financial measures (continued) Limitations of non-GAAP financial measures. The primary material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool compared to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures
are these non-GAAP financial measures (i) may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in our industry, and (ii) exclude financial information that some may consider important in evaluating our performance, thus
limiting their usefulness as a comparative tool. We compensate for these limitations by providing full disclosure of the differences between these non-GAAP financial measures and the corresponding GAAP financial measures, including a reconciliation
of the non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP financial measures in our earnings releases, to enable investors to perform their own analysis of our gross margin, operating expenses, operating margin, net income per diluted share and
net cash provided by operating activities. © 2024 Qorvo US, Inc. | Qorvo Confidential & Proprietary Information 94
