Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 10, 2025, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Barclays Capital Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to the public offering (the “Offering”) by the Company of $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes, consisting of $875 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.212% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $625 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.319% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “2028 Notes,” and together with the 2026 Notes, the “Notes”).

The 2026 Notes will mature on September 24, 2026 and will bear interest at a rate of 4.212% per annum, and the 2028 Notes will mature on March 24, 2028 and will bear interest at a rate of 4.319% per annum. The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company and customary conditions to closing, obligations of the parties and termination provisions. Additionally, the Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or to contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities. The Offering is expected to close on March 24, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to fund a portion of the acquisition of ZT Group Int’l, Inc. (“ZT Systems”). If the acquisition of ZT Systems is not completed, the Company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

The Offering has been registered under the Securities Act, pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-265433), as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, dated March 10, 2025, relating to the Notes (together with the accompanying base prospectus, dated June 6, 2022, the “Prospectus Supplement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act on March 10, 2025.

The summary of the Underwriting Agreement in this Current Report on Form 8-K does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the potential Offering, the expected closing date of the Offering and the Company’s intended use of proceeds from the Offering and the acquisition of ZT Systems, which are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are commonly identified by words such as “will be,” “may,” “expects,” “believes,” “plans” and “intends” and other terms with similar meaning. You are cautioned that the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K are based on current beliefs, assumptions and expectations, speak only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K and involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations. Such statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond the Company’s control, that could cause actual results and other future events to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the forward-looking information and statements. Material factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, without limitation, market conditions and the risk factors detailed in the Prospectus Supplement, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2024 and those risk factors set forth from time to time in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. For the reasons discussed above, you should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
