New Initiative
TowerJazz announces signing a binding MOU with a leading Indian infrastructure
conglomerate, to build and operate a 300mm facility in India. This will enable the company
a roadmap to long term 300mm wafer size, 90nm analog technology and companion chips in
deep submicron technologies (65-45nm). The Company presented to empowered government
committee as 3-way consortia with a leading Indian infrastructure conglomerate, TowerJazz
and a worldwide leading technology provider. The Company believes that we are in the best
position, as (1) the consortia is very strong and (2) TowerJazz has an impeccable
reputation in India based on a previous successful government fab project win and
execution. However, the Company cannot predict the outcome of government selection, and
hence neither has nor can give assurance it will win this bid.
CEO and Chairman Perspective
Russell Ellwanger, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "From both strategic and
business standpoints, 2011 was a very strong year in performance and a catalyst for the
future. Fueled by a long term business relationship with a new customer, Micron
Technologies, we were able to achieve 20% year over year growth, multiples above our peer
group. In addition, we doubled our wafer capacity as compared to 2010, in a most cost
effective manner. Driven by performance and an ability to provide capacity commitments, we
have strong engagements with market leaders in all of our business segments. We are
operationally preparing for a strong second half, having received such indications from
lead customers."
Mr. Ellwanger added, "We have a most capable and impassioned worldwide employee base,
who are excited with the opportunities in front of us, as we implement our 2012 mantra
'the pursuit of excellence'."
Mr. Amir Elstein, Chairman of the Board, in commenting on the corporate performance
and the future, stated: "In only a few years, the Company has cemented a substantial lead
as the specialty foundry market leader, with strategic tier one customers in high growth,
high margin analog segments. The recently signed India MOU is a tremendous opportunity for
TowerJazz to utilize its manufacturing knowhow and technical expertise to gain a low cost
entrance into an emerging market at a 300mm wafer size level. Should this proposal not be
accepted, we remain active in pursuing such models where we add benefit to our partners
and customers through our expertise and execution and benefit to the shareholders through
profitable upside growth."
