Cautionary Statement

This
press release contains forward-looking statements concerning Advanced Micro
Devices, Inc. (AMD) including the features, functionality, availability,
timing, deployment, and expected benefits of the Ryzen™ 5 2400G and AMD Ryzen™
3 2200G processors as well as AMD’s 2018 product portfolio, 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 “would,” “intends,” “believes,”
“expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,”
“seeks,” “intends,” “plans,” “pro
forma,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or the negative of
these words and phrases, other variations of these words and phrases or
comparable terminology. Investors are cautioned that the forward-looking
statements in this document are based on current beliefs, assumptions and
expectations, speak only as of the date of this document 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
AMD’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, the following: Intel Corporation’s dominance of the microprocessor
market and its aggressive business practices may limit AMD’s ability to compete
effectively; AMD has a wafer supply agreement with GF with obligations to
purchase all of its microprocessor and APU product requirements, and a certain
portion of its GPU product requirements, from GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (GF) with
limited exceptions. If GF is not able to satisfy AMD’s manufacturing
requirements, its business could be adversely impacted; AMD relies on third
parties to manufacture its products, and if they are unable to do so on a
timely basis in sufficient quantities and using competitive technologies, AMD’s
business could be materially adversely affected; failure to achieve expected
manufacturing yields for AMD’s products could negatively impact its financial
results; the success of AMD’s business is dependent upon its ability to
introduce products on a timely basis with features and performance levels that
provide value to its customers while supporting and coinciding with significant
industry transitions; if AMD cannot generate sufficient revenue and operating
cash flow or obtain external financing, it may face a cash shortfall and be
unable to make all of its planned investments in research and development or
other strategic investments; the loss of a significant customer may have a
material adverse effect on AMD; AMD’s receipt of revenue from its semi-custom
SoC products is dependent upon its technology being designed into third-party
products and the success of those products; global economic uncertainty may
adversely impact AMD’s business and operating results; the markets in which
AMD’s products are sold are highly competitive; AMD may not be able to generate
sufficient cash to service its debt obligations or meet its working capital
requirements; AMD has a large amount of indebtedness which could adversely
affect its financial position and prevent it from implementing its strategy or
fulfilling its contractual obligations; the agreements governing AMD’s notes
and the Secured Revolving Line of Credit impose restrictions on AMD that may
adversely affect its ability to operate its business; the products that AMD
sells are complex and may be subject to security vulnerabilities that could
result in, among other things, the loss, corruption or misuse of confidential
data by unauthorized third parties or system performance issues. AMD’s efforts
to prevent and address security vulnerabilities can be costly and may be
partially effective or not successful at all; AMD’s issuance to West Coast
Hitech L.P. (WCH) of warrants to purchase 75 million shares of its common
stock, if and when exercised, will dilute the ownership interests of its
existing stockholders, and the conversion of the 2.125% Convertible Senior
Notes due 2026 may dilute the ownership interest of its existing stockholders,
or may otherwise depress the price of its common stock; uncertainties involving
the ordering and shipment of AMD’s products could materially adversely affect
it; the demand for AMD’s products depends in part on the market conditions in
the industries into which they are sold. Fluctuations in demand for AMD’s
products or a market decline in any of these industries could have a material
adverse effect on its results of operations; AMD’s ability to design and
introduce new products in a timely manner is dependent upon third-party
intellectual property; AMD depends on third-party companies for the design,
manufacture and supply of motherboards, software and other computer platform
components to support its business; if AMD loses Microsoft Corporation’s
support for its products or other software vendors do not design and develop
software to run on AMD’s products, its ability to sell its products could be
materially adversely affected; and AMD’s reliance on third-party distributors
and AIB partners subjects it to certain risks.  Investors are urged to
review in detail the risks and uncertainties in AMD’s Securities and Exchange
Commission filings, including but not limited to AMD’s Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
