Infineon and Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRVL) have entered into a definitive transaction agreement for a purchase price of <span class=\"xn-money\">US$2.5 billion<\/span> in cash. The transaction is subject to regulatory approvals. Ethernet is a key enabling technology for low-latency, high-bandwidth communication, which is crucial for software-defined vehicles. Additionally, it has significant potential in adjacent fields of use such as humanoid robots. The planned investment will strengthen Infineon&#8217;s already strong footprint in the U.S., including extensive R&amp;D activities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The acquisition is a great strategic fit for Infineon as the global number one provider of semiconductor solutions to the automotive industry,&#8221; says <span class=\"xn-person\">Jochen Hanebeck<\/span>, CEO of Infineon. &#8220;We will leverage this highly complementary Ethernet technology by combining it with our existing, broad product portfolio to provide our customers with even more comprehensive, leading solutions for software-defined vehicles. The transaction will support our profitable growth strategy going forward, including new opportunities in the field of physical AI such as humanoid robots.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Marvell&#8217;s leading Brightlane\u2122 Automotive Ethernet portfolio of PHY transceivers, switches and bridges supports network data rates ranging from today&#8217;s 100 Mbps (megabits per second) up to market-leading 10 Gbps (gigabits per second). It also supports the security and safety features required for today&#8217;s and tomorrow&#8217;s in-vehicle networks.<\/p>\n<p>Among the customers of Marvell&#8217;s Automotive Ethernet business are more than 50 automotive manufacturers, including eight of the ten leading OEMs. The strong customer relationships are backed by a design-win pipeline of around <span class=\"xn-money\">US$4 billion<\/span> until 2030 and a strong innovation roadmap, paving the way for future revenue growth. The business is expected to generate revenue of <span class=\"xn-money\">US$225<\/span> \u2013 <span class=\"xn-money\">US$250 million<\/span> in the 2025 calendar year with a gross margin of around 60%, based on the strong potential for further acceleration through Infineon&#8217;s unmatched access to global automotive customers. Additional cost synergies are expected from combining R&amp;D forces and leveraging Infineon production reach. Marvell&#8217;s Automotive Ethernet business has several hundred highly skilled and dedicated employees, with main offices in the U.S., <span class=\"xn-location\">Germany<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia<\/span>. After the transaction closes, Marvell&#8217;s Automotive Ethernet business will become part of Infineon&#8217;s Automotive division.<\/p>\n<p>Ethernet connectivity solutions are vital to software-defined vehicles and are the basis for highly efficient E\/E-architectures comprising central compute, zones and endpoints. Sophisticated features such as advanced driver-assistance systems, autonomous driving, and over-the-air software updates require massive amounts of secure data processing, networking and storage. The combination with the Infineon AURIX\u2122 microcontroller family creates a comprehensive product offering combining communications solutions as well as real-time control. The acquisition is intended to further strengthen Infineon&#8217;s number one position in microcontrollers.<\/p>\n<p>Infineon will use existing liquidity and will incur additional debt in order to fund the planned acquisition of Marvell&#8217;s Automotive Ethernet business in an all-cash transaction. Infineon has secured acquisition financing from banks. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to close within calendar year 2025.<\/p>\n<p>Infineon will host a telephone conference call including a webcast for analysts and investors, scheduled for Tuesday, 8<sup>th<\/sup> April at <span class=\"xn-chron\">8:30 am (CEST)<\/span>. During the call, Infineon management will comment on the strategic rationale and financial aspects of the transaction and answer related questions.
