BMW Group Signs Agreement with Inova Semiconductor and GlobalFoundries to Secure Supply December 8, 2021 Will secure several million semiconductors per year First deliveries for BMW iXWendt: “Securing our needs for the long term” Munich, 8. November 2021. The BMW Group is exploring new ways of working with suppliers and, in the case of strategically important components, becoming more closely involved in the supplier network. To secure semiconductor supplies for the long term, the company has signed a direct supply assurance agreement with high-tech microchip developer INOVA Semiconductors and semiconductor manufacturer GlobalFoundries® (GF®). The agreement guarantees the BMW Group the supply of several million microchips per year. The microchips will be used in the ISELED smart LED technology co-developed by the BMW Group, which will be deployed for the first time in the BMW iX and rolled out in further models. Customer deliveries of the BMW iX got underway in early November. “We are deepening our partnership with suppliers at key points in the supplier network and synchronising our capacity planning directly with semiconductor manufacturers and developers. This improves planning reliability and transparency around the volumes needed for everyone involved and secures our needs for the long term,” said Dr Andreas Wendt, member of the Board of Management of BMW AG responsible for Purchasing and Supplier Network. “This pioneering agreement marks the next logical step in securing our supplies in an even more proactive manner going forward.” This agreement is a model of how to build more secure, and resilient supply-chain partnerships and accelerate technology development supporting the next generation of automotive innovation. “With this agreement directly with an OEM, we are certainly entering new territory as a semiconductor company” says Robert Kraus, CEO of INOVA Semiconductors. “We are convinced that this innovative approach of a partnership across the production chain will be target-oriented: in this way, we secure the requirements of our end customer and have a high degree of planning security with the long production cycles of the chips. That is a real win-win situation.” “GF is committed to building stronger relationships with the automotive industry to deliver innovation and address the growing demand for feature-rich chips,” said Mike Hogan, senior vice president and general manager of Automotive, Industrial and Multi-market at GF. “This supply assurance agreement with BMW and Inova Semiconductor demonstrates how we are partnering to develop innovative smart LED technology for the new BMW iX and to create new technologies for the car of tomorrow.” Several thousand semiconductors per car Depending on the equipment options, every car contains several thousand of the wafer-thin semiconductors that are essential for all electronic devices. They serve various functions by performing arithmetic and control tasks in computers, storing data or even handling multiple tasks at the same time. The share of electronic components in vehicles is likely to increase further in the future. ### The BMW Group With its four brands BMW, MINI, Rolls-Royce and BMW Motorrad, the BMW Group is the world’s leading premium manufacturer of automobiles and motorcycles and also provides premium financial and mobility services. The BMW Group production network comprises 31 production and assembly facilities in 15 countries; the company has a global sales network in more than 140 countries. In 2020, the BMW Group sold over 2.3 million passenger vehicles and more than 169,000 motorcycles worldwide. The profit before tax in the financial year 2020 was € 5.222 billion on revenues amounting to € 98.990 billion. As of 31 December 2020, the BMW Group had a workforce of 120,726 employees. The success of the BMW Group has always been based on long-term thinking and responsible action. The company set its course for the future early on and is making sustainability and resource efficiency the focus of the company’s strategic direction – from the supply chain, through production, to the end of the use phase, for all its products.
宝马集团与INOVA、格芯签署协议以确保供应 December 8, 2021 每年将确保数百万枚芯片的供应 首次交付供应宝马iX系列 Wendt：”确保我们的长期需求” 宝马集团正在探索与供应商合作的新方式，在具有战略意义的零部件方面更紧密地参与到供应商网络中。为确保长期的半导体供应，宝马与高科技微芯片开发商INOVA和半导体制造商格芯签署了一份直接供应确保协议。该协议保证每年向宝马供应数百万枚芯片。这些芯片将用于宝马集团共同开发的ISELED智能LED技术，该技术将首次应用于宝马iX系列，并在其他车型中推广。宝马iX的客户交付工作已于11月初开展。 “我们正在供应商网络的关键节点深化与供应商的合作关系，并直接与半导体制造商和开发商同步我们的产能规划。这提高了规划的可靠性和每个参与者所需数量的透明度，并确保我们的长期需求。” 负责采购和供应商网络的宝马公司管理委员会成员Andreas Wendt博士说，“这项开创性的协议标志着我们在确保供应方面更加积极主动地迈出了合理的一步。” 该协议是如何建立更安全、更有韧性的供应链伙伴关系和加速支持下一代汽车创新技术开发的典范。 INOVA首席执行官Robert Kraus说：“作为一家半导体公司，这项直接与OEM签订的协议肯定会使我们进入新的领域。我们相信，这种在整个生产链中建立伙伴关系的创新方法将以目标为导向：通过这种方式，我们确保了最终客户的要求，并在芯片的长生产周期中拥有高度的规划保障。这是一个真正的双赢局面。” 格芯高级副总裁兼汽车、工业和多市场战略业务部总经理Mike Hogan说：”格芯致力于与汽车行业建立更牢固的关系，以提供创新并满足对功能丰富的芯片日益增长的需求。与宝马和INOVA签订的这份供应保证协议表明了我们是如何合作为新宝马 iX开发创新的智能LED技术，并为未来的汽车创造新技术的。” 每辆汽车上有几千个半导体产品 根据设备选项的不同，每辆汽车都包含几千种晶圆般薄的半导体，这些半导体对所有电子设备来说都是必不可少的。它们通过在计算机中执行算术和控制任务、存储数据，甚至同时处理多项任务，发挥着各种功能。未来，电子元件在汽车中的份额可能会进一步增加。Depending on the equipment options, every car contains several thousand of the wafer-thin semiconductors that are essential for all electronic devices.

The guidance provided above contains forward-looking statements as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is subject to the safe harbors created therein. The guidance includes our management’s beliefs and assumptions and is based on information currently available. GF has not provided a reconciliation of its Fourth Quarter fiscal quarter outlook for non-International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) gross margin, non-IFRS operating profit margin, non-IFRS EPS or Non-IFRS Adjusted EBITDA Margin because estimates of all of the reconciling items cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts. It is difficult to reasonably provide a forwardlooking estimate between such forward-looking non-IFRS measures and the comparable forward-looking IFRS measures. Certain factors that are materially significant to GF’s ability to estimate these items are out of its control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. Adjusted Financial Measures In addition to the financial information presented in accordance with IFRS, this press release includes the following non-IFRS metrics: adjusted gross profit, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted EPS. We define adjusted gross profit (loss) as gross profit (loss) adjusted for share-based compensation expense. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), excluding the impact of interest expense, tax expense, depreciation, amortization adjusted for share-based compensation expense, transaction gains and associated expenses, restructuring charges and litigation settlements. We define adjusted operating profit (loss) as profit (loss) from operations adjusted for share-based compensation expense. We define adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for share-based compensation expense. We define adjusted EPS as adjusted net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. We believe that in addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, these non-IFRS measures are useful in evaluating our business and the underlying trends that are affecting our performance. These non-IFRS financial measures provide supplemental information regarding our operating performance that excludes certain gains, losses and non-cash charges that occur relatively infrequently and/or that we consider to be unrelated to our core operations. These non-IFRS measures are used by both our management and our board of directors, together with the comparable IFRS information, in evaluating our current performance and planning future business activities. We believe that these non-IFRS measures, when used in conjunction with our IFRS financial information, also allow investors and users of our financial statements to better evaluate our financial performance in comparison to other periods and to other companies in our industry. However, non-IFRS financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with IFRS. Our presentation of non-IFRS measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or nonrecurring items. Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently, which may limit their usefulness as a comparative measure. Conference Call and Webcast Information GF will host a conference call with the financial community on Tuesday, November 30, 2021 at 4:30 p.m. U.S. Eastern Standard Time (EST) to review the Third Quarter 2021 results in detail.
