In exchange for assets and equipment, Toppan Photomasks promises to provide GlobalFoundries semiconductor production with photomasks in the required volume, for which a multi-year supply agreement has been concluded between the companies. In addition, GlobalFoundries plans to expand its photomask production capacity in Europe. Back in 2003, Infineon, AMD and DuPont Photomasks built a joint factory for the production of photomasks in Dresden - Advanced Mask Technology Center GmbH & Co. KG (AMTC). After a series of share sales, AMTC has been a joint venture between GlobalFoundries and Toppan Photomasks since 2009. In the future, the AMTC center will remain partly at the disposal of GlobalFoundries and will strengthen its role in providing the manufacturer with photomasks.
In each case, the money issue was left out of the news. How much GlobalFoundries will gain from the sale of the American production of photomasks, and how much it will cost to purchase photomasks from the Japanese, is not disclosed in the press release.
