GlobalFoundries Mitarbeitende spenden mehr als 40.000 Euro für Ukrainehilfe an arche noVa e.V. March 21, 2023 Unternehmen verdreifacht Spenden durch internes Spendenprogramm GlobalGives Dresden, 21. März 2023. Rund ein Jahr nach dem Beginn des russischen Angriffs auf die Ukraine ziehen der Dresdner Chiphersteller GlobalFoundries (GF) und die Dresdner Hilfsorganisation arche noVa e.V. Bilanz zu gemeinsamen Spendenprojekten. Seit März 2022 haben das Unternehmen und seine Mitarbeitenden mehr als 40.000 Euro an arche noVa zugunsten humanitärer Projekte in der Ukraine gespendet. Neben einer Direktspende von 5.000 Euro verdreifachte GF die Spenden seiner Mitarbeitenden über das firmeninterne Spendenprogramm GlobalGives. “Unsere Kolleginnen und Kollegen hatten vom ersten Tag des Krieges an ein starkes Bedürfnis zu helfen. Als internationales Team aus 45 Nationen gibt es vielfältige persönliche Beziehungen und großes privates Engagement. Viele Familien haben Geflüchtete aufgenommen und neben Geld auch Alltagsausstattung gespendet”, erklärt Unternehmenssprecherin Karin Raths. “Die hohe Spendensumme von über 40.000 Euro an unseren langjährigen Projektpartner arche noVa hat auch uns sehr positiv überrascht. Auf Wunsch unserer Mitarbeitenden werden wir das Spendenprogramm in dieser Form auch 2023 weiterführen!” „Wir sind sehr beeindruckt von dem Engagement des GlobalFoundries-Teams. Der hohe Spendenbetrag ist ein großer Vertrauensbeweis für die seit Jahren anhaltende partnerschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und zeigt uns, was möglich ist, wenn soziale Verantwortung konsequent gelebt wird“, betont Mathias Anderson, Geschäftsführer von arche noVa. „Das Spendenprogramm GlobalGives ermöglicht uns seit 2020, von Krisen und Konflikten betroffene Menschen mit humanitärer Hilfe zu erreichen. Im Falle der Ukraine bedeutet dies etwa die Verteilung von lebenswichtigen Hilfsgütern wie Wasser, Lebensmittel, Hygienekits oder auch Öfen und Brennstoffen gegen die winterliche Kälte. Angesichts der besonders in der Ostukraine weiterhin prekären humanitären Lage ist diese Solidarität sehr wichtig.“ GF engagiert sich weltweit seit vielen Jahren im Umfeld seiner Standorte. Mitarbeitende können Vereine und Organisationen in die Spendendatenbank GlobalGives eintragen. Die Spenden an diese Empfänger werden von GF verdoppelt. GF-Mitarbeitende können auch ihren ehrenamtlichen Einsatz in Vereinen eintragen. Im vergangenen Jahr spendeten Mitarbeitende des Dresdner GF-Standorts für regionale Projekte so mehr als 200.000 Euro. Dazu kamen fast 1.000 Stunden Freiwilligenarbeit für 118 Organisationen in Sachsen. Aktuell unterstützt GlobalFoundries auch humanitäre Projekte für die Opfer des Erdbebens in der türkisch-syrischen Grenzregion über das Bündnis Aktion Deutschland hilft, in dem auch arche noVa aktiv ist.

Amkor Technology and GlobalFoundries to Provide At-scale Semiconductor Test and Assembly Services in Europe February 16, 2023 Partnership expands European and transatlantic semiconductor supply chain TEMPE, Ariz. and DRESDEN, Germany, February 16, 2023 — Amkor Technology, Inc. (Nasdaq: AMKR), a leading provider of semiconductor packaging and test services, and GlobalFoundries (Nasdaq: GFS) (GF), a global leader in feature-rich semiconductor manufacturing, announced today that the two companies have formed a strategic partnership. This new partnership will enable a comprehensive EU/US supply chain from semiconductor wafer production at GF to OSAT* services at Amkor’s site in Porto, Portugal. GF plans to transfer its 300mm Bump and Sort lines from its Dresden site to Amkor’s Porto operations to establish the first at-scale back-end facility in Europe. GF will maintain ownership of its transferred tools, processes, and IP in Porto. Both partners also plan to collaborate on future development efforts in Portugal. Today, Amkor is the only high-volume, Tier 1 OSAT in Europe, and GF Dresden is Europe’s largest and most advanced semiconductor manufacturing services company. This partnership enables the first semiconductor manufacturing (foundry) through advanced packaging semiconductor supply chain outside of Asia, creating more European supply chain autonomy for key end markets including automotive. “This strategic partnership with GF will enhance the advanced semiconductor packaging supply chain in Europe and ramp up competitive capacity to complement what is available in Asia,” said Kevin Engel, Amkor’s Executive Vice President, Business Units. “Amkor’s collaboration with GF enables us to significantly expand manufacturing scale and bring to market additional assembly and test capability to support our European and global customers.” “GF remains committed to growing our European manufacturing ecosystem to support local and global customers, especially in the Automotive markets. This partnership with Amkor in Portugal will provide much needed services within the EU and expand the US-European semiconductor supply chain,” said Mike Hogan, GlobalFoundries Chief Business Officer. At this pivotal time in the semiconductor industry, manufacturers and suppliers alike are confronted with political, industrial, technological, and financial disruptions. Amkor’s global support and local presence combined with GF’s tools and processes will enable the Porto site to help the European Union pursue its goals of ensuring supply chain stability and delivering the next-generation automotive and other critical chip solutions. * Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test vendors provide third-party IC-packaging and test services.

Adjusted Financial Measures (Non-IFRS) In addition to the financial information presented in accordance with IFRS, this press release includes the following adjusted non-IFRS metrics: adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating profit, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted gross profit as gross profit adjusted for share-based compensation expense. We define adjusted operating profit as profit from operations adjusted for share-based compensation expense and restructuring charges. We define adjusted net income (loss) as net income (loss) adjusted for share-based compensation expense, restructuring charges and the associated tax impact. We define adjusted diluted EPS as adjusted net income (loss) divided by the dilutive shares. We define adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted for the impact of finance expense, finance income, income tax expense, depreciation, amortization, share-based compensation expense, transaction gains and associated expenses, restructuring charges, labor optimization initiatives and litigation settlements. We believe that in addition to our results determined in accordance with IFRS, these adjusted non-IFRS measures provide useful information to both management and investors in measuring our financial performance and highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. These adjusted 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. For further information regarding these non-IFRS measures, please refer to “Unaudited Reconciliation of IFRS to Adjusted Non-IFRS” table above. Adjusted 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 adjusted 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.

GlobalFoundries and GM Announce Long-Term Direct Supply Agreement for U.S. Production of Semiconductor Chips February 9, 2023 MALTA, N.Y. and DETROIT, Mich. — February 9, 2023 — General Motors Co. (NYSE: GM) and GlobalFoundries (NASDAQ: GFS) (GF) today announced a strategic, long-term agreement establishing a dedicated capacity corridor exclusively for GM’s chip supply. Through this first-of-its-kind agreement, GF will manufacture for GM’s key chip suppliers at GF’s advanced semiconductor facility in upstate New York bringing a critical process to the U.S. This agreement supports GM’s strategy to reduce the number of unique chips needed to power increasingly complex and tech-laden vehicles. With this strategy, chips can be produced in higher volumes and are expected to offer better quality and predictability, maximizing high value content creation for the end customer. Semiconductors are the foundation of the technologies that are powering the electrification, autonomous driving and connectivity of the auto industry, and they have been center stage in the global chip shortage that has impacted automakers the last couple of years. “We see our semiconductor requirements more than doubling over the next several years as vehicles become technology platforms,” said Doug Parks, GM executive vice president of Global Product Development, Purchasing and Supply Chain. “The supply agreement with GlobalFoundries will help establish a strong, resilient supply of critical technology in the U.S. that will help GM meet this demand, while delivering new technology and features to our customers.” “At GF we are committed to working with our customers in new and innovative ways to best address the challenges of today’s global supply chains,” said Dr. Thomas Caulfield, president and CEO of GF. “GF will expand its production capabilities exclusively for GM’s supply chain, enabling us to strengthen our partnership with the automotive industry and New York State, while further accelerating automotive innovation with U.S.-based manufacturing for a more resilient supply chain.” “This first of its kind agreement between GlobalFoundries and General Motors is going to drive the Capital Region economy forward and ensure Upstate New York remains in the driver’s seat as one of the nation’s leading hubs for semiconductor manufacturing that is so critical to the supply chain of the auto industry. I have long said that Upstate New York’s semiconductor corridor will be a major engine powering America’s technological future, and now ‘Made in New York’ chips will help jumpstart the next generation of vehicles for GM across the country,” said U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer. “Thanks to my CHIPS and Science Act, we are bringing manufacturing back to our country and America’s supply chains are being secured, creating good-paying jobs here in Upstate New York, not overseas. This partnership is yet another example that our nation’s future will be built in Upstate New York, with the Capital Region as a global center for the future of the microchip industry.” New York Governor Kathy Hochul said: “We’re making New York State not only the semiconductor capital of the country — but of the globe. This agreement will help to further establish New York State as a major hub for semiconductor manufacturing. With our nation-leading Green CHIPS legislation and the new Governor’s Office of Semiconductor Expansion, Management, and Integration, we are helping businesses like GM and GlobalFoundries expand the chips manufacturing ecosystem in our state, creating jobs and opportunities for generations to come.” GF is responding to the global demand for semiconductors through a series of strategic long-term agreements with existing and new customers and simultaneously expanding global capacity to meet customer demand in partnership with federal and local governments. Supportive policies like the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act are encouraging the onshoring of semiconductor production and reestablishing the U.S. as a global leader of this critical technology. ### About General Motors (NYSE:GM) is a global company focused on advancing an all-electric future that is inclusive and accessible to all.

GlobalFoundries Acquires Renesas’ Non-Volatile Resistive RAM Technology to Proliferate IoT and 5G Applications February 9, 2023 Technology acquisition expands GF’s portfolio and differentiated roadmap while accelerating the commercialization of memory solutions MALTA, N.Y., February 9, 2023 – GlobalFoundries (Nasdaq: GFS) (GF) today announced that it has acquired Renesas Electronics Corporation (Renesas)’s proprietary and production proven Conductive Bridging Random Access Memory (CBRAM) technology, a low power memory solution designed to enable a range of applications in home and industrial IoT and smart mobile devices. The transaction further strengthens GF’s memory portfolio and extends its roadmap of embedded non-volatile memory (NVM) solutions by adding another reliable, customizable embedded memory solution that is relatively easy to integrate into other technology nodes. Specifically, this technology will enable customers to further differentiate their SoC designs and advance a new generation of secure and intelligent devices. “We’re committed to differentiating our technology portfolio to be the foundation of our customers’ energy efficient IoT applications today and for decades to come,” said Mike Hogan, chief business officer of GF. “With the acquisition of this innovative memory technology, GF is now playing an essential role in accelerating development of NVM solutions which will enable our customers to design the next generation of intelligent and connected devices. CBRAM technology unleashes a new paradigm of performance and ultra-low energy use, enabling a wide range of applications, from wearable devices to smartphones, to extend the time between battery charges from hours to weeks to years in specific use cases.” CBRAM’s low power consumption, high read/write speeds, reduced manufacturing costs and tolerance for harsh environments make it particularly suitable for consumer, medical, and select industrial applications. In 2020, GF entered into a licensing agreement with Dialog Semiconductor, which was acquired by Renesas in 2021, to offer its CBRAM technology as an embedded, NVM option. Today, CBRAM is being qualified on the company’s 22FDX® platform, with plans to extend it to other platforms. About GF GlobalFoundries (GF) is one of the world’s leading semiconductor manufacturers.
