Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking

BUSINESS
General
TE Connectivity Ltd. (   TE Connectivity    or the    Company,    which may be referred to as    we,       us,    or    our   ) is a
global industrial technology leader creating a safer, sustainable, productive, and connected future. Our broad range of
connectivity and sensor solutions, proven in the harshest environments, enable advancements in transportation, industrial
applications, medical technology, energy, data communications, and the home.
We became an independent, publicly traded company in 2007; however, through our predecessor companies, we
trace our foundations in the connectivity business back to 1941. We are organized under the laws of Switzerland. The rights
of holders of our shares are governed by Swiss law, our Swiss articles of association, and our Swiss organizational
regulations.
We have a 52- or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the last Friday of September. Fiscal 2023, 2022, and 2021 ended
on September 29, 2023, September 30, 2022, and September 24, 2021, respectively. Fiscal 2023 and 2021 were each 52
weeks in length. Fiscal 2022 was 53 weeks in length. For fiscal years in which there are 53 weeks, the fourth fiscal quarter
includes 14 weeks.
Segments
Effective for fiscal 2023, we realigned certain product lines from the Industrial Solutions segment to the
Communications Solutions segment. We continue to operate through three reportable segments: Transportation Solutions,
Industrial Solutions, and Communications Solutions. Prior period segment results have been restated to conform to the
current segment reporting structure. See Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. As of
fiscal year end 2023, we believe our three segments serve a combined market of approximately $200 billion.
Our net sales by segment as a percentage of our total net sales were as follows:
