(1) The Company’s net revenues by market was revised during 2020 to align with changing end-market conditions, the Company’s current business priorities, as well as growth opportunities in the four categories. The broadband category includes the Company’s prior connected home category plus the SoC business from the Wi-Fi and Broadband assets business, but excludes wired connectivity. The infrastructure category remains unchanged. Industrial and multi-market includes the previously reported revenue plus component revenues from the Wi-Fi and Broadband assets business. The Company’s connectivity category includes primarily its MoCA/G.hn products and Wi-Fi and Ethernet revenues from the Wi-Fi and Broadband assets business. The 2019 amounts were adjusted to reflect the change in market categories; however, 2018 amounts have not been adjusted.
