"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; AMD has a wafer supply agreement with GF with obligations
to purchase all of its microprocessor and APU product requirements,
and a certain portion of its GPU product requirements, from
GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (GF) with limited exceptions. If GF is not
able to satisfy AMD’s manufacturing requirements, its business
could be adversely impacted; 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
uncertainty may adversely impact AMD’s business and operating
results; AMD’s 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 and
reputation; AMD’s operating results are subject to quarterly and
seasonal sales patterns; AMD may not be able to generate sufficient
cash to service its debt obligations or meet its working capital
requirements; AMD has a large amount of indebtedness which could
adversely affect its financial position and prevent it from
implementing its strategy or fulfilling its contractual
obligations; the agreements governing AMD’s notes and the Secured
Revolving Line of Credit 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; uncertainties
involving the ordering and shipment of AMD’s products could
materially adversely affect it; 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 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 September 28, 2019.
