IBM continues its previously<br \/>\nannounced $3 billion investment<br \/>\nover five years for semiconductor technology<br \/>\nresearch to lead in the next generation<br \/>\nof computing.<\/p>\n<p>Officials said GlobalFoundries will<br \/>\nhave primary access to the research that<br \/>\nresults from this investment through joint<br \/>\ncollaboration at the Colleges of Nanoscale<br \/>\nScience and Engineering, SUNY Polytechnic<br \/>\nInstitute in Albany.<\/p>\n<p>As part of this agreement, GlobalFoundries<br \/>\nwill gain substantial intellectual<br \/>\nproperty including thousands of patents,<br \/>\nmaking GlobalFoundries the holder of one<br \/>\nof the largest semiconductor patent portfolios<br \/>\nin the world. Officials said GlobalFoundries also will benefit from an influx<br \/>\nof one of the best technical teams in the<br \/>\nsemiconductor industry, which will solidify<br \/>\nits path to advanced process geometries at<br \/>\n10nm and below.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the acquisition opens up<br \/>\nbusiness opportunities in industry-leading<br \/>\nradio frequency (RF) and specialty technologies<br \/>\nand ASIC design capabilities,<br \/>\nsaid IBM.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This acquisition solidifies GlobalFoundries&#8217; leadership position in semiconductor<br \/>\ntechnology development and<br \/>\nmanufacturing,&#8221; said Dr. Sanjay Jha,<br \/>\nCEO of GlobalFoundries. &#8220;We can now<br \/>\noffer our customers a broader range of<br \/>\ndifferentiated leading-edge 3D transistor<br \/>\nand RF technologies, and we will also improve<br \/>\nour design ecosystem to accelerate<br \/>\ntime-to-revenue for our customers. This<br \/>\nacquisition further strengthens advanced<br \/>\nmanufacturing in the United States, and<br \/>\nbuilds on established relationships in New<br \/>\nYork and Vermont.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The agreement expands our longstanding<br \/>\ncollaboration, which began when GlobalFoundries<br \/>\nwas created in 2009, and reflects<br \/>\nour confidence in GlobalFoundries&#8217;<br \/>\ncapability,&#8221; said IBM Senior Vice President<br \/>\nand Director of Research Dr. John E. Kelly<br \/>\nIII. &#8220;This acquisition enables IBM to focus<br \/>\non fundamental semiconductor and<br \/>\nmaterial science research, development<br \/>\ncapabilities and expertise in high-value<br \/>\nsystems, with GlobalFoundries&#8217; leadership<br \/>\nin advanced technology manufacturing at<br \/>\nscale and commitment to delivering future<br \/>\nsemiconductor technologies. We are grateful<br \/>\nfor the leadership and investments by<br \/>\nthe states of New York and Vermont in<br \/>\nsupporting the semiconductor industry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the companies, the acquisition<br \/>\nbolsters semiconductor manufacturing<br \/>\nand technology development in the<br \/>\nUnited States. GlobalFoundries has capital<br \/>\nexpenditure plans of approximately $10<br \/>\nbillion in 2014-2015, with the majority being<br \/>\ninvested in New York. GlobalFoundries<br \/>\nhas created nearly 3,000 direct jobs in New<br \/>\nYork and thousands more indirect jobs in<br \/>\nthe United States since 2009.<\/p>\n<p>GlobalFoundries will acquire and<br \/>\noperate existing IBM semiconductor<br \/>\nmanufacturing operations and facilities<br \/>\nin East Fishkill, N.Y., and Essex Junction,<br \/>\nVt., adding capacity to serve its customers<br \/>\nand thousands of jobs to GlobalFoundries&#8217;<br \/>\nworkforce.<\/p>\n<p>GlobalFoundries said it plans to provide<br \/>\nemployment opportunities for substantially all IBM employees at the two facilities<br \/>\nwho are part of the transferred businesses,<br \/>\nexcept for a team of semiconductor<br \/>\nserver group employees who will remain<br \/>\nwith IBM. After the close of the transaction,<br \/>\nGlobalFoundries will be the largest<br \/>\nsemiconductor technology manufacturing<br \/>\nemployer in the Northeast.<\/p>\n<p>GlobalFoundries will also acquire IBM&#8217;s<br \/>\ncommercial microelectronics business,<br \/>\nwhich includes ASIC and specialty foundry,<br \/>\nmanufacturing and related operations and<br \/>\nsales. GlobalFoundries said it plans to<br \/>\ninvest to grow these businesses.<\/p>\n<p>IBM said it will reflect a pre-tax charge<br \/>\nof $4.7 billion in its financial results for the<br \/>\nthird quarter of 2014, which includes an<br \/>\nasset impairment, estimated costs to sell<br \/>\nthe IBM microelectronics business, and<br \/>\ncash consideration to GlobalFoundries.<\/p>\n<p>The cash consideration of $1.5 billion is<br \/>\nexpected to be paid to GlobalFoundries<br \/>\nby IBM over the next three years. The<br \/>\ncash consideration will be adjusted by<br \/>\nthe amount of working capital which is<br \/>\nestimated to be $200 million.<\/p>\n<p>Photo By Newscom<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> IBM researcher Jerry Chow works on semiconductor materials at one of the plants acquired by GlobalFoundries in a move that strengthens the latter&#8217;s presence in the Northeast IBM and GlobalFoundries in late October announced an agreement under which GlobalFoundries&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":88,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[66,108],"class_list":["post-15941","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business-news","tag-business-news","tag-malta"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
