AMD-ATI - looks like a done deal
http://beyond3d.com/#news32202 AMD To Make "Significant" Announcement 24-Jul-2006, 01:35.05 Reporter : geo After months of increasingly specific rumors about the future of ATI as an independent company, it appears all but certain that AMD and ATI will announce tomorrow that AMD has made a friendly offer to acquire the graphics company. AMD has announced a "significant corporate announcement" for 8:00 a.m. EDT on Monday, July 24th, where they are expected to reveal the details of their bid. Media reports in multiple outlets are expecting a cash and stock offer for ATI in the neighborhood of $5.5 billion dollars--roughly a 28% premium over ATI's current stock value. Any such offer would require the approval of ATI's stockholders. Of course, we're interested in how the deal affects ATI in the consumer and professional graphics spaces in the mid- to long-term. We will be talking to ATI in due course to find out the details. Naturally, it is not only AMD and ATI that will be influenced by this development. The entire playing field in the PC world is just about to receive a major shaking that will impact others such as NVIDIA, Intel, Via, etc. The impact will ripple outward for years, and it could easily be 2009 or later before we fully understand the implications of these events. The comments section linked below will contain live details of the conference call. _______________ also http://www.kesq.com/Global/story.asp?S=5187103&nav=9qrx http://www.tinyurl.com/mcsg7 http://www.sanluisobispo.com/mld/san...n/15108132.htm http://www.tinyurl.com/lfph7 http://www.tinyurl.com/m8ayc http://www.statesman.com/business/co.../07/24amd.html |
