Description: GFS Globalfoundries February 13, 2026
GlobalFoundries Inc. (NASDAQ:GFS) is a U.S.-based semiconductor foundry that delivers mainstream wafer-fabrication services and a portfolio of devices-including microprocessors, mobile and baseband processors, network processors, RF modems, microcontrollers, and power-management ICs. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Malta, New York, the company positions itself as a full-service partner for customers requiring mature-node technologies (≤ 28 nm) across automotive, communications, and industrial markets.
Key recent metrics (Q4 2025 / FY 2025): revenue $6.2 billion, up 8 % YoY; fab utilization averaged 78 % versus the industry-wide 71 % average, reflecting strong demand for AI-edge and automotive chips; backlog stood at $4.0 billion, indicating multi-quarter order visibility. Capital spending for 2025 was $1.5 billion, driven by a $2.5 billion U.S. CHIPS Act award to expand the Malta and Singapore sites, which should boost capacity for 12-inch wafers and advanced packaging.
Given the accelerating AI-driven demand for specialized nodes and the ongoing reshoring of semiconductor supply chains, GFS’s focus on mature processes and its expanding U.S. footprint could be a material catalyst-consider digging deeper into its valuation and risk profile on ValueRay.
