Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – The Company

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. is a global semiconductor company. References herein to AMD or the Company mean Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. AMD’s products include x86 microprocessors (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs), as standalone devices or as incorporated into accelerated processing units (APUs), chipsets, data center and professional GPUs, embedded processors, semi-custom System-on-Chip (SoC) products, microprocessor and SoC development services and technology, data processing units (DPUs), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), and Adaptive SoC products. From time to time, the Company may also sell or license portions of its intellectual property (IP) portfolio.

NOTE 2 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of AMD have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year ending December 30, 2023 or any other future period. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position, cash flows and stockholders’ equity. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Certain immaterial prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

The Company uses a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Saturday in December. The three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 24, 2022 each consisted of 13 and 39 weeks, respectively.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. Areas where management uses judgment include, but are not limited to, revenue allowances, inventory valuation, valuation of goodwill and long-lived assets, and income taxes.

Significant Accounting Policies. There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies in Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

Revenue

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) include amounts received from customers and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods for development services, IP licensing and product revenue. As of September 30, 2023, the aggregate transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations under contracts with an original expected duration of more than one year was $192 million, of which $129 million is expected to be recognized in the next 12 months. The revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations does not include amounts which have an original expected duration of one year or less.

Revenue recognized over time associated with custom products and development services accounted for 25% and 27% of the Company’s revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively and 30% and 24% of the Company’s revenue for the three and nine months ended September 24, 2022, respectively.

NOTE 4 – Segment Reporting

Management, including the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), who is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, reviews and assesses operating performance using segment net revenue and operating income (loss). These performance measures include the allocation of expenses to the reportable segments based on management’s judgment.

The Company’s four reportable segments are:

  • the Data Center segment, which primarily includes server microprocessors (CPUs) and graphics processing units (GPUs), data processing units (DPUs), Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) and Adaptive System-on-Chip (SoC) products for data centers;

  • the Client segment, which primarily includes CPUs, accelerated processing units (APUs) that integrate CPUs and GPUs, and chipsets for desktop and notebook personal computers;

  • the Gaming segment, which primarily includes discrete GPUs, semi-custom SoC products and development services; and

  • the Embedded segment, which primarily includes embedded CPUs and GPUs, APUs, FPGAs and Adaptive SoC products.

From time to time, the Company may also sell or license portions of its IP portfolio.

In addition to these reportable segments, the Company has an All Other category, which is not a reportable segment. This category primarily includes certain expenses and credits that are not allocated to any of the reportable segments because the CODM does not consider these expenses and credits in evaluating the performance of the reportable segments. This category primarily includes amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, employee stock-based compensation expense, acquisition-related costs and licensing gain. Acquisition-related costs primarily include transaction costs, purchase price adjustments for inventory, certain compensation charges, contract termination and workforce rebalancing charges.

The following table provides a summary of net revenue and operating income by segment:

The Company’s financial instruments are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, except for non-marketable equity investments in privately-held companies. These equity investments are generally accounted for under the measurement alternative, defined as cost, less impairments, adjusted for subsequent observable price changes and are periodically assessed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that a decline in value may have occurred.

NOTE 11 – Income Taxes

The Company determines its income taxes for interim reporting periods by applying the Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate to the year-to-date results, adjusted for tax items discrete to each period. The difference between the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% and the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 24, 2022 was primarily due to the income tax benefit from foreign-derived intangible income (FDII) and research and development tax credits.

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $39 million and $49 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, representing effective tax rates of (15.2)% and (35.8)%, respectively. The Company recorded the tax effects of stock-based compensation, uncertain tax positions, and other items discrete to the period resulting in income tax benefit of $17 million and $29 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $135 million and a provision of $32 million for the three and nine months ended September 24, 2022, representing effective tax rates of 195.7% and 2.4%, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 24, 2022, the impact of tax items discrete to the periods was not material to the total tax expense or the effective tax rate.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had long-term income tax liabilities of $1.5 billion recorded under Other long-term liabilities in the balance sheet.

With respect to these matters, based on management’s current knowledge, the Company believes that the amount or range of reasonably possible loss, if any, will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
