As part of the transaction, Ampere's lead investors – Carlyle (NASDAQ:CG) and Oracle Corp. (NYSE:ORCL) – are selling their respective positions in Ampere.

"This is a fantastic outcome for our team, and we are excited to drive forward our AmpereOne® roadmap for high performance Arm processors and AI."

    Founded in Silicon Valley in 2018 with an initial focus on cloud-native computing, Ampere has since expanded into sustainable AI compute. The company has multiple products for a spectrum of cloud workloads from the edge to the cloud data center.

    Transaction Details

    Under the terms of the agreement, SoftBank will acquire Ampere for $6.5 billion in cash. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the second half of 2025. Ampere's headquarters will remain in Santa Clara, CA.
