It's a much better situation that what happened to imagination Technologies, when Apple decided to in-source their video acceleration tech on the A-series CPUs. The company's share price dropped 70%.

It was a similar story back in the iPod days as well, Wolfson Microelectronics (coincidentally also a UK firm like Imagination Technologies) suffered similar problems when Apple massively reduced their orders.
