Micron stock set for Tuesday test after $1.8 billion Taiwan fab deal

Micron Technology revealed Saturday it has signed an exclusive letter of intent to acquire Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp’s P5 fab in Tongluo, Taiwan, for $1.8 billion in cash. The 300-millimeter facility spans a 300,000-square-foot cleanroom and is set to strengthen Micron’s strategic ties with PSMC.

Shares rose 7.8% to $362.75 on Friday. COO Manish Bhatia said the acquisition “will enable Micron to increase production and better serve our customers.”
