Intel reportedly seeks to sell a minority stake in its Altera unit, aiming to raise billions in cash as the company struggles with market share losses and stock declines. Intel is looking for a deal that values Altera at around $17 billion, close to the $16.7 billion it paid in 2015. The move would accelerate previous plans to monetize Altera, which included a potential IPO by 2026. Qualcomm has expressed interest in acquiring Intel, a potential deal facing regulatory challenges. Intel shares are down 50% this year, losing ground to Nvidia and AMD.
