Cautionary StatementThis press release contains
forward-looking statements concerning Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
(AMD) including the features, functionality, timing, availability,
expectations and benefits of the AMD Ryzen Threadripper PRO
Processors and AMD’s partnership with Lenovo, which are made
pursuant to the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are
commonly identified by words such as "would," "intends,"
"believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "intends,"
"plans," "pro forma," "estimates," "anticipates," or the negative
of these words and phrases, other variations of these words and
phrases or comparable terminology. Investors are cautioned that the
forward-looking statements in this document are based on current
beliefs, assumptions and expectations, speak only as of the date of
this document and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from current expectations. Such
statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks and
uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally
beyond AMD's control, that could cause actual results and other
future events to differ materially from those expressed in, or
implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and
statements. Material factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from current expectations include, without
limitation, the following: Intel Corporation’s dominance of the
microprocessor market and its aggressive business practices may
limit AMD’s ability to compete effectively; AMD relies on third
parties to manufacture its products, and if they are unable to do
so on a timely basis in sufficient quantities and using competitive
technologies, AMD’s business could be materially adversely
affected; failure to achieve expected manufacturing yields for
AMD’s products could negatively impact its financial results; the
success of AMD’s business is dependent upon its ability to
introduce products on a timely basis with features and performance
levels that provide value to its customers while supporting and
coinciding with significant industry transitions; if AMD cannot
generate sufficient revenue and operating cash flow or obtain
external financing, it may face a cash shortfall and be unable to
make all of its planned investments in research and development or
other strategic investments; the loss of a significant customer may
have a material adverse effect on AMD; AMD’s receipt of revenue
from its semi-custom SoC products is dependent upon its technology
being designed into third-party products and the success of those
products; global economic and market uncertainty may adversely
impact AMD’s business and operating results; the ongoing novel
coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic could materially adversely affect
AMD’s business, financial condition and results of operations;
AMD’s worldwide operations are subject to political, legal and
economic risks and natural disasters which could have a material
adverse effect on AMD; government actions and regulations such as
export administration regulations, tariffs and trade protection
measures, may limit AMD’s ability to export its products to certain
customers; AMD products may be subject to security vulnerabilities
that could have a material adverse effect on AMD; IT outages, data
loss, data breaches and cyber-attacks could compromise AMD’s
intellectual property or other sensitive information, be costly to
remediate and cause significant damage to its business, reputation
and operations; uncertainties involving the ordering and shipment
of AMD’s products could materially adversely affect it; AMD’s
operating results are subject to quarterly and seasonal sales
patterns; the agreements governing AMD’s notes and the Secured
Revolving Facility impose restrictions on AMD that may adversely
affect its ability to operate its business; the markets in which
AMD’s products are sold are highly competitive; the conversion of
the 2.125% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 may dilute the
ownership interest of its existing stockholders, or may otherwise
depress the price of its common stock; the demand for AMD’s
products depends in part on the market conditions in the industries
into which they are sold. Fluctuations in demand for AMD’s products
or a market decline in any of these industries could have a
material adverse effect on its results of operations; AMD’s ability
to design and introduce new products in a timely manner is
dependent upon third-party intellectual property; AMD depends on
third-party companies for the design, manufacture and supply of
motherboards, software, memory and other computer platform
components to support its business; if AMD loses Microsoft
Corporation’s support for its products or other software vendors do
not design and develop software to run on AMD’s products, its
ability to sell its products could be materially adversely
affected; and AMD’s reliance on third-party distributors and AIB
partners subjects it to certain risks. Investors are urged to
review in detail the risks and uncertainties in AMD's Securities
and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to AMD's
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 28,
2020.

13 Max boost for AMD Ryzen Processors is the maximum frequency
achievable by a single core on the processor running a bursty
single-threaded workload. Max boost will vary based on several
factors, including, but not limited to: thermal paste; system
cooling; motherboard design and BIOS; the latest AMD chipset
driver; and the latest OS updates. GD-150
14 Base frequency is the approximate processor clock speed of a
typical workload running at the processor’s standard TDP.
