A Dutch court orders an investigation into Nexperia's governance

The Dutch Enterprise Chamber has determined there are valid grounds to doubt the proper management of semiconductor manufacturer Nexperia under its previous governance structure, the company reported on February 11. The decision follows a public hearing on January 14, 2026, and pertains to Nexperia's former leadership and measures taken by its parent company, Wingtech Technology, since October 2025. Consequently, the Chamber has ordered an investigation expected to last several months. Nexperia stated it welcomes and respects the decision and will fully cooperate. Measures imposed in October 2025 remain in effect, including the suspension of Wingtech executive Zhang Xuezheng and independent administration of voting rights for Wingtech's indirect Nexperia shares. Nexperia's current leadership remains unchanged, and the company asserts its underlying business remains "healthy and resilient," with an immediate priority to stabilize its supply chain. The resolution occurs amid ongoing scrutiny of Nexperia's ownership and governance due to geopolitical challenges and supply chain tensions linked to its Chinese parent
