AMD & ATI: A Processing Powerhouse
On July 24, 2006, AMD and ATI announced a plan to join forces, in a
transaction that will combine AMD’s technology leadership in
microprocessors with ATI’s strengths in graphics, chipsets and consumer
electronics. The result is a processing powerhouse: a new competitor,
better equipped to drive growth, innovation and choice for its customers
in commercial and mobile computing segments and in rapidly-growing
consumer electronics segments. The transaction, valued at US $5.4
billion, is expected to close in Q4 2006 subject to approval by ATI
shareholders, court approval, regulatory approvals and other customary
closing conditions.
Headquartered in Sunnyvale, California with centers of excellence around
the world, the new company will have a combined workforce of
approximately 14,900 employees. This transaction breaks new ground for
both companies and is expected to provide increased customer benefits in
four key technology areas:
Commercial Clients
As a combined company, AMD and ATI will develop commercial platforms
that deliver simplicity, stability, and manageability in graphics-rich
and mobile environments.
Mobile Computing
As a combined company, AMD and ATI will advance mobile computing by
delivering integrated platforms that are designed to extend battery life
while optimizing graphics and media processing.
Consumer Digital Media
As a combined company, AMD and ATI will empower users to create and
experience rich, immersive digital entertainment across multiple
consumer devices, including PCs, handhelds, and digital televisions.
High-Growth Markets
As a combined company, AMD and ATI will deliver highly-integrated,
low-cost, power-efficient solutions to meet the expanding demands of
billions of new users in emerging markets.
