On an ongoing basis the Company reviews the categories that best depict how the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue cash flows are affected by economic factors. The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated based on revenue source and timing of revenue recognition for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company believes these categories best depict how the nature, timing and uncertainty of revenue cash flows are affected by economic factors:

The Company's investment in joint ventures is included in Other noncurrent financial assets in the interim condensed consolidated statements of financial positions.

Note 5. Income taxes

For tax reporting purposes, the Company consolidates its entities under GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc., a Cayman Islands entity. As a Cayman Islands corporation, the Company’s domestic statutory income tax rate is 0.0%. The difference between the Company’s domestic statutory income tax rate and its (provision) benefit for income taxes is due to the effect of the tax rates in the other jurisdictions in which the Company operates.

The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was 11.8% and (11.1)%, respectively. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the prior year was primarily due to a higher mix of income in jurisdictions with higher tax rates than the Cayman statutory tax rate and incremental withholding taxes incurred.

In addition to the above, the Company obtained letters of credit to primarily guarantee payments for utility supplies and foreign statutory payroll related charges. The Company has available letters of credit of $20 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and has drawn down bank guarantees of $3 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Contingencies — From time to time, the Company is a party to claims that arise in the normal course of business. These claims include allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights of others as well as other claims of liability. In addition, the Company, on a case by case basis, includes intellectual property indemnification provisions in the terms of sale and technology licenses with third parties. The Company is also subject to various taxes in the different jurisdictions in which it operates. These include property, goods and services, and other non-income taxes. The Company accrues costs associated with these matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable. The Company does not believe it is probable that losses associated with these matters beyond those already recognized will be incurred in amounts that would be material to the interim condensed consolidated statements of financial position or interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

On April 28, 2021, International Business Machines (“IBM”) sent the Company a letter alleging that the Company did not fulfill the Company’s obligations under the contracts the Company entered into with IBM in 2014 associated with the Company’s acquisition of IBM’s Microelectronics business. IBM asserted that the Company engaged in fraudulent misrepresentations during the underlying negotiations, and claimed the Company owed them at least $2.5 billion in damages and restitution. On June 7, 2021, the Company filed a complaint with the New York State Supreme Court (the “Court”) seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company did not breach the relevant contracts. IBM subsequently filed its complaint with the Court on June 8, 2021. On September 14, 2021, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss IBM’s claims of fraud, unjust enrichment and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. IBM appealed its fraud claim, and on April 7, 2022, the New York Appellate Division reversed the Court’s decision. The Company believes, based on discussions with legal counsel, that it has meritorious defenses against IBM’s claims. The Company disputes IBM’s claims and intends to vigorously defend against them.

Note 12. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:

•Level 1: observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

•Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices in active markets in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

•Level 3: unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring management judgment to develop the Company’s own models with estimates and assumptions.

Cash Equivalents - Cash equivalents include investments in government obligation-based money market funds, other money market instruments and interest-bearing deposits with initial or remaining terms of three months or less. The fair value of cash equivalents approximates its carrying value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Marketable Securities - Marketable securities utilizing Level 1 inputs include U.S. Treasury Securities, U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprises, floating rate securities, money market mutual funds, corporate debt instruments and other Notes, bonds or debt securities issued by non-U.S. sovereign or multilateral entities, as these securities all have quoted prices in active markets.

Financial Instruments Not Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include grants receivable, loans receivable, lease obligations and the Company’s current and noncurrent portion of long-term debt.

The carrying and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are presented in the following table, classified according to the categories of financial liabilities at amortized cost (“FLAC”):


(in millions)		June 30, 2022				December 31, 2021
Financial Liabilities	Category	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Long-term debt	FLAC	2,170		2,101		2,013		2,006
Total		$	2,170	$	2,101	$	2,013	$	2,006

Estimated fair values of long-term debt are based on quoted prices for similar liabilities for which significant inputs are observable and represents a Level 2 valuation. The fair values are estimated based on the type of debt and their maturities. The Company estimates the fair value using market interest rates of debts with similar maturities.

Note 13. Share-Based Compensation

We measure and recognize compensation expense related to share-based transactions, including employee, consultant, and non-employee director share option awards, in our consolidated financial statements based on fair value. We estimate the share option fair value at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires management to make certain assumptions of future expectations based on historical and current data. The assumptions include the expected term of the share option, expected volatility, dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate. The expected term represents the amount of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, based on forecasted exercise behavior. The risk-free rate is based on the rate at grant date of zero-coupon U.S. Treasury notes with a term comparable to the expected term of the option. We estimate expected volatility based on the historical volatility of comparable public entities’ share price from the same industry. We base our dividend yield on forecasted expected payments, which we expect to be zero for the immediate future. We recognize compensation expense over the vesting period of the award on a graded attribution basis, and we estimate forfeitures.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In connection with, and prior to the consummation of, the Company's initial public offering, the Company's board of

directors adopted the GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP is administered by the Company's board of directors or, as applicable, its delegate (the “ESPP Administrator”).

Subject to certain equitable adjustments in connection with certain events affecting the outstanding ordinary shares

reserved for issuance as awards, the maximum aggregate number of our ordinary shares that may be issued or transferred under the ESPP with respect to awards is 7,500,000 ordinary shares; provided that the share reserve under the ESPP will, unless otherwise determined by our board of directors, automatically increase on January 1 of each year for 8 years commencing on January 1, 2023 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2031 in an amount equal to 0.25% of the total number of ordinary shares outstanding on December 31 of the preceding year. In no event will the number of ordinary shares that may be issued or transferred pursuant to rights granted under the ESPP exceed 18,750,000, in the aggregate, subject to the adjustments described above.

Performance Stock Units

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company awarded Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) to certain senior level employees, which will vest if certain financial performance objectives are achieved over a two to three year performance period and the grantee remains employed by the Company through that performance period. Each PSU represents a contingent right to receive shares of the Company’s stock if the Company meets certain performance measures over the requisite period. The PSU awards entitle recipients to receive, upon vesting, a number of shares that ranges from 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs awarded, depending on the level of achievement of the specified performance conditions.

OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEWS AND PROSPECTS

Overview

GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (“We,” “GF,” or the “Company”) is one of the world’s leading semiconductor foundries. We manufacture complex, feature-rich integrated circuits (“ICs”) that enable billions of electronic devices that are pervasive throughout nearly every sector of the global economy. With our specialized foundry manufacturing processes, a library consisting of thousands of IP titles, and differentiated transistor and device technology, we serve a broad range of customers, including the global leaders in IC design, and provide optimized solutions for the function, performance and power requirements of critical applications driving key secular growth end markets.

The combination of our highly-differentiated technology and our scaled manufacturing footprint enables us to attract a large share of single-sourced products and long-term supply agreements, providing a high degree of revenue visibility and significant operating leverage, resulting in improved financial performance and bottom line growth. As of June 30, 2022, the aggregate lifetime revenue commitment reflected by these agreements amounted to $27 billion, including more than $10 billion during the period from 2022 through 2023 and more than $3.5 billion in advanced payments and capacity reservation fees. These agreements include binding, multi-year, reciprocal annual (and, in some cases, quarterly) minimum purchase and supply commitments with wafer pricing and associated mechanics outlined for the contract term. Through an intense focus on collaboration, we have built deep strategic partnerships with a broad base of more than 35 customers as of June 30, 2022, many of whom are the global leaders in their field.

Components of Results of Operations

Net Revenue

We generate the majority of our revenue from volume production and sales of semiconductor wafers, which are priced on a per-wafer basis for the applicable design. We also generate revenue from pre-fabrication services such as rendering of non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) services, mask production and post-fabrication services such as bump, test, and packaging. Pricing is typically agreed prior to production and then updated based on subsequent period negotiations.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of material expenses, depreciation and amortization, employee-related expenses, facility costs and costs of fixed assets, including maintenance and spare parts. Material expenses primarily include the costs of raw wafers, test wafers, photomasks, resists, process gases, process chemicals, other operating supplies and external service costs for wafer manufacturing. Costs related to NRE services are also included within the cost of revenue. We expect cost of revenue to grow at a pace lower than our revenue growth. As it pertains to inflation and inflationary-headwinds we are facing within our business, while we have experienced an increase in costs for materials and energy in the current period, we continue to estimate the impact of these inflationary costs to our current year financial results to not be material.

Depreciation and amortization charges primarily include the depreciation of clean room production equipment. We depreciate equipment on a straight-line basis over a two-to-ten-year period and buildings on a straight-line basis up to 26 years (or the remaining lease term of related land on which the buildings are erected, if shorter).

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses consist of research and development ("R&D") and selling, general and administrative expenses. Personnel costs are the most significant component of our operating expenses and consist of salaries, benefits, bonuses, share-based compensation, and commissions.

Research and Development (“R&D”)

Our R&D efforts are focused on developing highly-differentiated process technologies and solutions. As part of our strategic repositioning, we focus our efforts on technologies where we can deliver a highly-differentiated solution. Our R&D expense includes personnel costs, material costs, software license and intellectual property expenses, facility costs, supplies, professional and consulting fees, and depreciation on equipment used in R&D activities. Our

development roadmap includes new platform investments, platform features and extensions, and investments in emerging technology capabilities and solutions. We expense R&D costs as incurred and we believe that continued investment in our technology portfolio is important for our future growth and acquisition of new customers.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”)

SG&A expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs, including sales commissions to independent sales representatives and professional fees, including the costs of audit, accounting, information technology, legal, regulatory and tax compliance. Additionally, costs related to advertising, trade shows, corporate marketing and allocated overhead costs are also included in SG&A expenses. We anticipate that we will incur increased audit, accounting, legal, information technology, regulatory, compliance, director and officer insurance costs as well as investor and public relations expenses associated with operating as a public company.

Finance Expenses, net

Finance expenses, net consist primarily of interest on borrowings, amortization of debt issuance costs under our term loans, revolving credit facility, finance leases and the other credit facilities we maintain with various financial institutions, net of interest income related to investing activities.

Share of Profit from Joint Ventures

Share of profit from joint ventures relates to our portion of profit and loss in investments that we do not consolidate.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other income (expense), net consists of one-time gains and losses and other miscellaneous income and expense items unrelated to our core operations.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense consists primarily of income taxes in jurisdictions in which we conduct business, which mainly include Germany, Singapore and the United States.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had an undrawn revolving credit facility of $1,000 million. In addition to our available revolvers, which were undrawn as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had $2,170 million and $2,013 million of debt outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, which was primarily comprised of multiple term loans in various currencies. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue growth rate, the timing and the amount we receive from customers, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the introduction of new and enhanced products and solutions, and the continuing market adoption of our platform. We may from time to time seek to raise additional capital to support our growth. As of June 30, 2022, we believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, investment in marketable securities, credit under our revolving credit facility, and expected cash generated from operations are sufficient to meet our capital requirements.

Cash Flows

The following table shows a summary of our cash flows for the periods presented:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,454	$	582
Net cash used in investing activities	(2,243)		(462)
Net cash provided by (used in) by financing activities	325		(224)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	$	(1)	$	1
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(465)	$	(103)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,454 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $872 million compared to $582 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily related to net income of $442 million, $819 million of depreciation and amortization and $104 million of share-based compensation expense. Favorable changes in working capital of $127 million included a decrease in receivables, prepayments and other of $212 million, which was driven principally by customer prepayments. This increase was partially offset by a $55 million increase in inventories.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $2,243 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $1,781 million from a use of $462 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period change was primarily attributable to capital expenditures of $1,455 million, an increase of $730 million from prior period, principally associated with activities to expand capacity within certain of our fabrication facilities, as well as the purchase of marketable securities of $790 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $325 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $549 million from a use of $224 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The period-over-period change was primarily attributable to $443 million of proceeds from borrowings and $82 million of proceeds from the issuance of equity instruments from options exercised, partially offset by the shareholder loan and debt repayments compared to the prior year.

Other Information

The information presented below updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risks described under Item 3.D. “Key Information - Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on From 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the Company’s risk factors as disclosed in Item 3.D, “Key Information - Risk Factors,” in such Annual Report. These risks are not exclusive, and additional risks to which we are subject include, but are not limited to, the factors mentioned under “Forward-Looking Statements”.

If we are unable to obtain adequate supplies of raw materials in a timely manner and at commercially reasonable prices our revenue and profitability may decline.

Our production operations require that we obtain adequate supplies of raw materials, such as silicon wafers, gases, chemicals and photoresist, on a timely basis and at commercially reasonable prices, many of which are not commodities easily replaced with substitutions. In the past, shortages in the supply of some materials, whether by specific vendors or by the industry generally, have resulted in occasional industry-wide price adjustments and delivery delays. Moreover, major natural disasters, trade barriers and political or economic turmoil occurring within the country of origin of such raw materials may also significantly disrupt the availability of such raw materials or increase their prices. Further, since we procure some of our raw materials from sole-sourced suppliers, there is a risk that our need for such raw materials may not be met or that back-up supplies may not be readily available. In addition, recent trade tensions between the United States and China, and the conflict in Ukraine, have resulted in pricing pressure and reduced availability of raw materials, including rare earth metals used in our products. Furthermore, sanctions imposed on Russia as a result of the conflict in Ukraine, as well as geopolitical tensions, have resulted in the reduction of availability of natural gas to Germany, where we operate some of our fabs. Tariffs, export control or other non-tariff barriers, due to global or local economic conditions could also affect material cost and availability.

Certain raw materials and other inputs, such as electricity and water, necessary for our production operations may experience substantial price volatility. Hedging transactions for many of those raw materials and other inputs are not available to us, or are not available on terms we believe are commercially acceptable. Economic and financial hedges that we enter into with respect to certain inputs, such as electricity, or alternative energy supplies we may seek to secure, may not be effective to avoid disruptions to our manufacturing operations. Additionally, once our prices with a customer are negotiated, we are generally unable to revise pricing with that customer until our next regularly scheduled price adjustment. As a result, if market prices for essential components increase, we will often be unable to pass the price increases through to our customers for products purchased under an existing agreement. Consequently, we are exposed to the risks associated with the volatility of prices for these components and our cost of revenue could increase and our gross margins could decrease in the event of price increases. Recently, as a result of demand driven by the semiconductor supply shortage, the costs of raw wafers as well as certain other raw materials are relatively high. Failure to obtain adequate supplies could result in our being unable to meet commitments under our contracts with customers, which could expose us to substantial liquidated damages and other claims, which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.
