NAND Memory Business
We sold our NAND memory technology and manufacturing business (the NAND OpCo Business) to SK hynix Inc. (SK hynix) which we deconsolidated upon closing the first phase of the transaction on December 29, 2021. On March 27, 2025, we closed the second phase of the transaction, collected the outstanding receivable, and recorded proceeds of $1.9 billion within cash and cash equivalents, net of certain adjustments.
In connection with the second closing, we entered into a final release and settlement agreement with SK hynix primarily related to certain penalties associated with the manufacturing and sale agreement between us and SK hynix, recognizing a net charge of $94 million within Interest and Other, net for the amount paid to SK hynix during the first quarter of 2025.
Altera FPGA Business
On April 14, 2025, we signed a transaction agreement with SLP VII Gryphon Aggregator, L.P., an affiliate of Silver Lake Partners (SLP), to sell 51% of all issued and outstanding common stock of Altera, a wholly owned subsidiary. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions, and is expected to result in the receipt of net cash proceeds of $4.4 billion, after adjusting for certain amounts that we bear responsibility for pursuant to the transaction agreement, including the separation costs described below. Pursuant to the transaction agreement, $1.0 billion of the purchase price will be deferred and payable in two equal $500 million installments no later than December 31, 2026 and December 31, 2027. Receipt of the deferred consideration is not subject to any contingencies. Upon closing the transaction, we will retain a 49% minority investment in the business. Contemporaneously with the execution of the transaction agreement, we entered into a separation agreement with SLP that sets forth the terms for the completion of the separation of Altera from Intel to operate on a standalone basis, including our agreement to fund separation costs and expenses up to an aggregate amount of $277 million. In connection with the transaction, we anticipate entering into certain ancillary agreements that govern, among other things, intellectual property rights, employee matters, government contracting, and a wafer manufacturing and sale agreement pursuant to which we will provide semiconductor wafer manufacturing services to Altera.
