Description: GFS Globalfoundries October 16, 2025
GlobalFoundries Inc. (NASDAQ:GFS) is a U.S.–based semiconductor foundry that delivers mainstream wafer-fabrication services and a portfolio of devices such as microprocessors, mobile application processors, baseband and network processors, RF modems, microcontrollers, and power-management ICs. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in Malta, New York, the company operates globally across multiple fab sites.
Key recent metrics: FY 2024 revenue was approximately $2.5 billion with a gross margin near 30 %, and its combined capacity across 12 inch fabs exceeds 1.5 million wafers per month. Growth is being driven by rising demand for automotive electronics, 5G infrastructure, and the U.S. CHIPS Act incentives that support domestic production of specialty-node chips. The broader semiconductor sector is also seeing a shift toward mature-node specialization as leading-edge (≤ 3 nm) capacity tightens, positioning GlobalFoundries to capture market share in cost-sensitive, high-volume applications.
