Chipmaker's finance chief says cash is part of deal Trump negotiated for a 10% stake
-
NEW YORK - Intel received US$5.7 billion (S$7.3 billion) in cash on the night of Aug 27 as part of the deal US President Donald Trump negotiated for a 10 per cent stake in the struggling chipmaker, finance chief David Zinsner said at an investor conference on Aug 28.
The stake in Intel announced by the US government last week is an incentive for Intel to retain control of its contract manufacturing business, or foundry, Mr Zinsner said.
As part of the deal, the government negotiated an additional 5 per cent warrant, should Intel cease to own more than 51 per cent of its foundry operation.
"I don't think there's a high likelihood that we would take our stake below 50 per cent," Mr Zinsner said. "So, ultimately, I would expect (the warrant) to expire worthless."
