![]() When you have been able to talk to customers over the past six months, and just going through this integration process- or not the integration process, just the planning process- what are you hearing from your customers? And do you sense a big pickup in business after- now that you've closed this deal? And we're going to be able to offer that entire portfolio to our customers, as well as build some really amazing and innovative products. Industrial, automotive, all of these markets need this collection of capabilities that we have. So the data center market, the strategic assets that we have for the data center market, the communications market, where Xilinx is extremely strong, and AMD has assets that can work in those areas. And when we think about the benefits of bringing the two companies together, you know, again, for customers, it's about a much broader product portfolio, right? We now have CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, adoptive SOCs, basic capability that can go across the most important markets in the world. LISA SU: Well, there's a lot of excitement across our customer set, as well as across the industry. So now that the day is here, what are your first three top priorities here. And to your point, you've had a lot of time, a lot of opportunity to plan out this integration. ![]() So building great products, ensuring that we continue to deepen our customer relationships across the board, and really building- continuing to build upon the great growth franchise that we have already built with AMD and Xilinx separately. And it really is, you know, across- we're all about products, as you know, Brian. You know, one plus one is going to be much greater than three. LISA SU: Well, I think our message is, you know, again, two wonderful teams, two of the best teams in the industry coming together. Lisa, what's going to be your message to those 5,000 Xilinx employees? And as you said, it's been about 16 months, but we've been planning, and we're absolutely ready to have a fast start on day one. And so we're extremely excited about doing it. But putting our two companies together is really a complementary set of markets, customers and products. They've done extraordinarily well as a standalone company.Īctually, both companies have done extremely well. So adding Xilinx, Xilinx is an incredible company. And you know, our vision of the world is that you need all types of computing to really serve customers and really think about what's next in the industry. So look, you know, AMD has always been about high-performance computing. We're just about getting ready to welcome our new 5,000 wonderful employees. I'm actually talking to you from the Xilinx campus. LISA SU: Yeah, Brian, thank you so much for having us this morning. For investors not familiar with the company, what does this allow you to do? You originally announced it in October 2020. The acquisition is seen boosting AMD's efforts in computer processors used in data centers and wireless networks. The company has closed on its $35 billion deal for Xilinx.
