AMD’s leadership in CPUs combined with ATI’s leadership in computing, graphics, and digital media is expected to enable the two companies to drive growth, ready to win business in commercial and mobile computing and rapidly-growing consumer electronics segments. AMD and ATI’s shared goal is to re-invent our industry as the customer-centric technology leader and partner of choice. Combined, the companies plan to deliver a broad portfolio of customer-centric, open platforms beginning in 2007 to address increasing demand for more integrated solutions in the following segments: • Commercial Client • Mobile Computing • Gaming and Media Computing • Consumer Electronics • Emerging Markets The new company will then aim to transform processing technologies with generalpurpose, media-centric, data-centric and graphic-centric platforms in 2008 and beyond. Financial Terms: • Transaction valued at $5.4 billion • Under the terms of the transaction, AMD will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of ATI for a combination of $4.2 billion of cash and 57 million AMD shares of common stock, based on ATI’s outstanding common stock on July 21, 2006. All outstanding options and RSUs of ATI will be assumed. Based upon the closing price of AMD common stock on July 21, 2006 of $18.26 per share, the consideration for each outstanding share of ATI common stock would be $20.47, comprised of $16.40 of cash and 0.2229 shares of AMD common stock. • 20 percent stock, 80 percent cash based on ATI’s outstanding common stock on July 21, 2006.

io spero 4 cose:
1. nVidia non sparisca dal mercato chipset per cpu AMD. 2. ATI non sparisca dal mercato chipset per intel. 3. Intel non perda le licenze per il crossfire su 975. 4 non nascano "strane" incompatibilità tra cpu intel e schede video ATI (anche perchè sarà il mio prossimo acquisto. Ora le smentisco tutte: 1. ad amd non conviene perchè nVidia è il maggior produttore di chipset per le proprie cpu. 2.AMD non è "forte" abbastanza per imporre ciò. 3.vedi sopra 4.vedi sopra ok..ora sparatemi

ATI's previous CEO Dave Orton will act as executive vice president of the ATI division and report directly to Hector Ruiz and Dirk Meyer. AMD's press release indicates that ATI will, for now, act as a division of AMD. In the event the takeover falls through, ATI must pay AMD a termination fee of $162M to cover AMD's initial investments and lendings.
The merger is more than a small shakeup for the industry. NVIDIA, AMD's number one supplier of core logic for AMD platforms, is also a direct competitor of ATI for discrete and integrated graphics. Jaffar Ali was able to reach NVIDIA's Director of Product PR EMEA, Luciano Alibrandi, who claims "Our PC strategy is to be the leading innovator of GPU and core logic for both Intel and AMD platforms. GeForce is the #1 GPU brand. Quadro is the #1 professional and workstation graphics brand. nForce the #1 core logic brand. And SLI is the #1 multi-GPU brand. They are specifically sought out by end users of both Intel and AMD processors. Today's announcement only enhances our strategy." It appears definite that NVIDIA will approach the Intel market with much more vigor than in the past, though no NVIDIA representatives would comment on whether or not the merger will result in a scaling back of NVIDIA AMD components. Interessante pezzo di Anandtech.

Penso anche che il valore pagato da AMD per ogni singola azione Ati crollerebbe qualora Ati si ridimensionasse fortemente nel settore delle schede video ed in questo caso AMD consoliderebbe solo delle perdite di capitale.

Non credo onestamente che come divisione di AMD, ATi non sara' soggetta ad un cambiamento di strategia. Mi auguro vivamente che non sara' una cosa simile a quella successa con S3. Sono fiducioso comunque sul futuro, e sono contento per ATI e AMD da cui nascera' davvero un colosso di dimensioni mostruose.

...più precisamente:
AMD’s acquisition of ATI will position the new company to deliver innovations that fulfill the increasing demand for more integrated solutions in key market segments while also continuing to develop “best-of-breed” discrete products that empower customers to choose the combination of technologies that best serves their needs. In 2008 and beyond, AMD aims to move beyond current technological configurations to transform processing technologies, with silicon-specific platforms that integrate microprocessors and graphics processors to address the growing need for general-purpose, media-centric, data-centric and graphic-centric performance. Thus, the combined company intends to empower its customers to create their own unique products and solutions within an open-innovation ecosystem free from artificial barriers to customer success.
