Activist Investor Starboard Builds 7.7% Stake in Qorvo, Plans Changes

by Barbara

Starboard Value, a prominent activist investment firm led by Jeffrey Smith, has acquired a 7.7% stake in semiconductor company Qorvo, valued at approximately $500 million, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal on Thursday. The firm is expected to disclose this position in a securities filing on Friday morning.

While the specific intentions behind Starboard’s investment in Qorvo remain unclear, the firm is reportedly seeking changes to improve the company’s underperforming share price. Neither Starboard nor Qorvo immediately responded to Reuters’ requests for comment.
