Many chip companies in the 1990s had their own factories, though the frequent downturns and financial and maintenance burdens led companies like AMD and Motorola to divest manufacturing assets. AMD turned to a fabless model, an approach Nvidia, for one, used to its advantage from the start.<\/p>\n<p>The pressure on chip manufacturer CFOs is now to avoid over-investment in factories by understanding whether the demand for chips is sustainable, or whether it\u2019s just a huge blip.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"pullquote\">\n<p>The demands for investments are more and the size of the investments are also getting more<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe demands for investments are more and the size of the investments are also getting more,\u201d Alam said, adding, \u201cthe design cost is also increasing as you are getting into more sophisticated leading node designs and things like that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Intel has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2022\/01\/21\/intel_us20bn_ohio\/\" rel=\"noopener\">committed<\/a> $20bn to opening a new fab near Columbus, Ohio by 2025. The funding provided by the government may not amount to much, but geography plays a role in striking a balance on investments in fabs and filling them up properly, S&amp;P Global analyst John Abbott told <em>The Register<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat means getting relationships from the other chip companies that still have a fabless model,\u201d Abbott said.<\/p>\n<p>Jim McGregor, an analyst at Tirias Research, singled out Devinder Kumar\u2019s body of work as AMD\u2019s CFO for providing a strong financial foundation that helped CEO (and now also board chair) Lisa Su take the company to new heights. Kumar took over as CFO in 2013, and his cost-structure control helped keep the struggling processor company afloat and absorb years of losses. He also secured manufacturing capacity with GlobalFoundries while minimizing the financial impact on the company.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Intel\u2019s Robert Swan, who was promoted from CFO to CEO, in 2019 cut R&amp;D spending for the first time in close to a decade. He subsequently resigned, and R&amp;D spending <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2022\/01\/31\/intel_earnings_analysis\/\" rel=\"noopener\">went up again<\/a> under new CEO Pat Gelsinger, who has made manufacturing a big part of the company\u2019s future.<\/p>\n<p>Semiconductors are extremely complicated, and have unique demand and supply dynamics that are difficult for outsiders to understand, Accenture\u2019s Alam said. \u201cBecause of this unique nature, you don&#8217;t see semiconductor companies hiring CFOs from outside.
