Item 7.01 - Regulation FD Disclosure
On December 31, 2014, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. ("Vishay") acquired all of the remaining outstanding shares of Taiwan-based Capella Microsystems (Taiwan), Inc. (GreTai Securities Market: 3582) ("Capella") pursuant to the terms of its previously announced merger agreement with Capella. Capella is a fabless IC design company specializing in optoelectronic products.
Vishay initially acquired 88.95% of Capella's outstanding shares in a tender offer, which was completed in September 2014.
Capella has been included in Vishay's consolidated financial statements since the acquisition of its 88.95% interest, with the net earnings attributable to the 11.05% non-controlling interest excluded from net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders. The completion of the merger will result in 100% of Capella's results being included in net earnings attributable to Vishay stockholders subsequent to December 31, 2014.
A copy of the press release announcing the completion of the tender offer is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
