The Dutch government's order regarding the semiconductor manufacturer Nexperia has been temporarily suspended. Despite administrative measures and internal governance issues in China, the supply of wafers at Nexperia remains ensured, the company states.

The Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs has temporarily suspended the state-issued order under the "Goods Availability Act" previously enforced on September 30, 2025, as Nexperia announced on November 19, 2025. This removes the immediate state intervention while Dutch and Chinese authorities are in discussions to stabilize the supply chain situation.

This does not mean that everything is back to normal; the intervention is merely paused, not lifted. The company considers this step by the Dutch government constructive but emphasizes that the complete restoration of supply requires further coordination with the Chinese units.

The previous ruling of the Dutch Enterprise Chamber against former CEO Zhang Xuezheng, who remains suspended, continues to apply unchanged. The voting rights indirectly held via Wingtech Technology remain under the administration of an independent administrator. Operationally, the holding is managed by interim CEO Stefan Tilger, COO Achim Kempe, Chief Legal Officer Ruben Lichtenberg, and the non-executive director appointed by the chamber, Guido Dierick.

Operational Continuity and Production Expansion

Nexperia emphasizes that, despite the special situation, there has been no complete stoppage of wafer deliveries. The company has built up inventories and secured alternative supply routes. According to the statement, sites outside China are operating without restrictions. For 2026, Nexperia also announces a gradual expansion of capacities at other production facilities.

At the same time, the company points out that the group's Chinese entities are currently alleged to be violating internal guidelines and legal requirements. Mentioned issues include unpaid wafer deliveries, unauthorized bank accounts, and problematic communication practices with business partners. Customers and suppliers are therefore urged to carefully review all business contacts and payment instructions. (sb)
